San Tomà, central and what a view!
Great place to stay during visiting Venice. Apartment and location was outstanding. 5 star well deserved!

Casa Vetrai Overlook Canal in Murano – Venice
Perfect place to stay for 2, for our visit to Murano. Place was easy to find, room was clean and well equipped. Great place for a base to explore the other islands. Burano is a must as absolutely stunning... so colourful. Easy access to and from venice and other islands.

Rooftop penthouse with a stunning private terrace
I cannot recommend Sam & his AirBnb enough. Such an incredible rooftop view of the city and centrally located to get around the city. Our deciding factor in choosing our AirBnb was the host’s reviews & Sam lived up to every expectation. 10/10 !

Ca' Laura - St. Mark's Canal View
This was a beautiful apartment in the perfect location to help make our first time in Venice incredible. Sebastian was very helpful with check in and friendly. Listen to the restaurant recommendations that he and/or Sabrina give you! Every one we tried was amazing. Would absolutely stay here again.

MADDALENA CANAL HOUSE
We stayed 6 nights in Claudia’s beautiful Venice apartment and felt right at home. It was stylish and spacious and set in a perfect quiet location close to one of the main walkways. Loved being on a canal! The bed was comfortable and found it a place to relax from the busy city. Would highly recommend to anyone looking for a stay - an absolute gem.

Luxury Bright Spacious 75sqm apt view canal/lagoon
We absolutely loved our stay at Jerome and Catherine’s. We loved the quiet neighborhood, the canal views in front and garden views in back. It was so wonderful to come back to this quiet neighborhood after a long day of sightseeing. I would definitely stay here again.

Ancient Gardens in Venice, Mimosa Apartment
Alberto’s place was fantastic. In a very nice, quiet and peaceful area, but with the benefit of being very walkable to more busy areas. Very good communication and tons of suggestions. The place was very clean and just like the photos. Would highly recommend if coming to Venice!

Luxury Historic Apartment on Calm Sunny Canal
Marc and Elizabeth’s space is spacious and beautiful. The kitchen and bathrooms are tidy and well equipped, and the beds are comfortable for sure, but the inspiring design is what should compel you to book. All the details make it feel very special from the terrazzo floors, to the textiles, to the thoughtful lighting. My teenaged sons will forever remember lounging in that gorgeous living room, playing chess while Gilberto Gil and John Coltrane play softly on CD in the background. Cannaregio is a perfect place to stay — away from the most crowded areas but still accessible to everything . For reference, we were able to walk to the Maritime museum on the opposite side of Venice in 30 minutes. Elizabeth was kind and her dining recommendations were spot on.

Tiffany Gold
If Tiffany Gold has open dates of the days you want to stay, stop reading this review and immediately make the booking - don't miss staying here. We could not have stayed at a more wonderful spot on Burano than Tiffany Gold, and Marta is an amazing host. The house is, as the pictures suggest, bright, spotlessly clean, and pinch yourself picturesque. it is an easy trip to and from Venice and Murano, or you can just hang about on the island for down time when travelling. We can't wait to go back one day.

On Canal with private Hot Tub & Garden
if you are coming to Venice, this is a must day. This was our first trip to Venice, but we quickly learn that we had stayed on the street where the locals hang out. This is off the tourist section with many food options on the same street, our favorite was Tintoretto. It is a 15 minute walking tour from the train station.. I cannot say enough nice things.

Ca dei Zoti 2 - San Marco with luggages room
If this flat is available for your time frame, don’t hesitate. Possibly the best place I ever rented. Excellent location, pristinely clean, Great beds. Carlo went above and beyond to show us are surrounding area and highlights. Take his advice on the bakery and restaurant. So happy we were able to experience this place. I would go back. Thanks

Apartment with a view of the canal
The serene location with the most beautiful views. The home was larger than expected and beautifully decorated. Perfect to pop over to Venice for the day. Venice is too crowded to stay. We prefer relaxed areas. I will tell everyone I know to come and enjoy your lovely place. Thank you.

Luxury apartment with terrace over the water
Really loves this place and the area of Venice it is located in. Nearby is an amazing local bar with cicchetti’s and we stoped there every night on the way home. We’d definitely stay here again.

Lux in Venice?Have a private garden like this flat
We had a wonderful stay at Marco's house. It is very nice, the private garden is a very nice plus, the house is very well-maintained, well-designed, and very clean. The neighborhood is much quieter than the more touristy neighborhoods that can be easily reached on foot or by boat. Irene, who was our contact during our stay, was very attentive to our requests and informed us each time with great responsiveness and efficiency. We really enjoyed staying in Venice in this neighborhood and in Marco's house.

Garden in the Venice Murano lagoon
Perfect place to avoid the craziness.

Dorsoduro Tranquil Escape: Canal views & serenity
This is a beautiful apartment. It’s modern and decorated beautifully. Right on the canal with cafes and restaurants within 200 feet. We loved our stay. Catrina and Nicole were very attentive and helped us with anything we needed. We would come back for sure and definitely would recommend this place.

La Finestra sul Laguna
Such a cute place with great views! The apartment was pretty spacious and Giacomo was very responsive and so friendly. We went to a couple of the food recommendations he left in the welcome binder which was very helpful. The shower is very small and there are a lot of stairs to carry your bags up but those were things mentioned in other reviews so those things weren’t a surprise for us. Loved staying here!

Gorgeous Suite San Polo apartment
I cannot say enough positive things about the apartment and more over the host, ELIA. If it were possible to give a six star review, I would. Everything was spot on, from the recommendations of places to go and things to do, the communication of the hose. On our last night, we had a situation late night, and ELIA, and their whole team were compassionate, responsive, and extremely helpful. Of all the places I've been in Italy, this is by far my favorite, mostly because of the apartment, and ELIA and Marta who checked us into our house. We love Venice, but love it even more because of The effectiveness of the host, and the beauty of the house.

Murano-Venezia Yellow Garden House - Appartamento
Enjoyed my stay. Comfortable beds, modern appliances, great shower, and good instructions for navigating water taxis. I enjoyed staying on Murano to see the glass shops and factory and would love to come back to Chiara’s place.

[VENEZIA-RIALTO] CASA COLONNA (A/C WiFi)
Amazing place in the heart of Venice. We walked to everything! Great host and a great place will definitely be back.

Ca’ del Bocolo-Your house in Venice
We had a lovely stay in Venice, the location was a bit further which worked we for us, it was next to one of the famous squares and we walked everywhere on the Island. It was lovely to also have a light breakfast provided and Signora Marina and her husband were very responsive and accommodating to our needs. Thank you for having us.

Canal Tron
We really enjoyed our stay at this apartment in Venice! It’s located in a quiet and charming part of the city — away from the busy tourist areas, but still close to everything. The water bus stop, great restaurants, and grocery stores were all within walking distance, which made exploring Venice easy and convenient. The apartment itself was cozy, comfortable, and felt like a home away from home. We appreciated having the space to relax and unwind after a day of sightseeing. Would definitely stay here again!

Romantic House on a Venetian Canal - Cà Daniela
Bruno's place is so beautiful, it truly feels like you are being welcomed into his family's home. The place is private and spacious, whilst feeling very secure. The photos don't do it justice. Bruno has thought and provided everything you would need whether it's personal cleaning amenities, breakfast (Italian coffee!), or things to help make the stay even more comfortable (citronella for the mozzies!) Bruno as a host was so friendly from the moment we booked, and was very communicative to ensure we were prepared for our stay. The big double windows facing the water are just divine to sit and read a book, or just watch people and boats go by. You can tell the home is well loved and cared for, and you will not be disappointed in booking Bruno's place.

Venice: Ca' dei Gemelli – Rialto Bridge☀️
Elena was a great host and was a very good communicator! The place was well kept and we enjoyed our time!
