Housed in a former thermal power plant built in the 1930s, this home situated alongside one of Venice’s canals, has a private balcony perfect for outdoor entertaining. There’s an upside-down layout here with the living space above the bedrooms, so there are stairs to climb. You can live like a local in this apartment’s neighbourhood – it’s a five-minute stroll to Cannaregio, with its variety of restaurants and bars, as well as the Guglie area. When you want to explore further – to Venice Lido Beach, for example – the transport hub of Piazzale Roma is a seven-minute walk away.

Where do we start with this home? Do we have a chat about the fantastic location or the apartment itself? Let’s begin with the beautiful views of the canal from the living room – you’ll love watching the gondolas glide past. If you’re here in summer, you’ll be glad to know that this apartment has air conditioning too. What about the address then? Well, it’s just over a five-minute walk from Rialto Bridge and just over a ten-minute stroll to Piazza San Marco.

The Bells of Venice

Wellness & Fitness

Luxurious and cool, this apartment is an unforgettable base in Venice. It’s in a 19th-century palazzo overlooking Rio de la Panada, a seven-minute walk from Rialto Bridge and twelve minutes from St Mark’s Square. Accessed via a courtyard, this grand apartment blends the charm of the past with the owner’s passion for art and design – don’t miss the walk-in wardrobe graffitied by a well-known street artist. The double-height living room and open-plan kitchen look out onto the canal, the perfect spot for socialising.

Experience the best of the Floating City from this gorgeous canalside Cannaregio apartment. Impeccably decorated in typically Venetian style, expect stunning period features, elegant furnishings and the occasional antique piece within its 16th-century walls.

In addition to the calming forest green colour scheme and tall windows that invite plenty of natural light in, we particularly loved the ingenious secret door leading to the en suite bathroom.

Your third-floor vantage point offers views over a buzzing piazza and imposing clock tower to one side and an elevated vantage point over a canal to the other. Venice is unusual in that there's no car traffic here. Instead, you can open up the windows and take in the many traditional sounds of the city, including church bells, bustling street markets, and gondoliers singing as they cruise by.

The location is ideal – not even five minutes from Rialto bridge, so you won't have to lug your bags too far, while the likes of St Mark's Square and the characterful streets of the Jewish Quarter are approximately ten minutes on foot.

When you're not out exploring, your host has provided some stunning coffee table books so you can appreciate the city through a photographer's lens and perhaps pick up a few pointers to elevate your usual holiday snaps.

Self Check-in / Check-out

Brimming with Venetian charm, this restored, high-beamed apartment is an idyllic place to call home during a trip to Venice. Located right in the heart of the city, moments from the Grand Canal, you can unwind sumptuously in between your cultural endeavours. 

Step inside, and you'll find a stunning, characterful space with traditional architecture and a contemporary design aesthetic. The kitchen is equipped with everything you could need to prepare your favourite Italian specialities -  including a Bialetti moka pot for a superior caffeinated experience in the mornings. In the evenings, enjoy culinary feasts at the sleek dining table, accompanied by a cold glass of Lison and the hum of the city just outside your window. When it's time to unwind, climb the stunning suspended staircase up to your slice of calm and sink into the sheets ready to explore the city another day. 

It's easy to tick off your sightseeing list from here, as many of the city's most iconic attractions are close by. Walk to Domenico Rossi’s 11th-Century San Stae in just six minutes, before wandering to Ca' Pesaro International Gallery of Modern Art – it's just two minutes from there. And, if you want to explore the city via water taxi, then hop on a boat at the San Stae stop - our favourite way to see Venice. 

High Beam

This apartment is situated in an excellent spot for exploring Venice. Piazza San Marco, Rialto Bridge, and Campo San Giovanni e Paolo are all a short walk away. The historic building even has its own bridge over the canal, so you'll only need to open the windows to admire the gondolas passing by. As far as design, it's super stylish. We love the mix of old and new, as well as the patterned wallpaper in the bedrooms. Two guests will sleep on a sofa bed, but in such a central location, that's a decent compromise.

As Gondolas Float By

Located inside a 15th-century palace, this luxurious apartment is quite literally fit for royalty. Experly restored, the interiors blend original gestures with chic Italian design for a cosy retreat that’s right on the canal. Easily accessed via water taxi, so you can easily spend your days seeing the sights of Cannaregio. French windows in the lounge open up onto the water, making for spectacular views and a sense of being immersed in your surroundings. This is a studio apartment, so the kitchen is on the smaller side, but the bedroom is on a mezzanine level with creates more space. 

Once Upon a Time in Venice

DVD Player

Bathtub

This impressive apartment in the heart of Cannaregio caught our eye for all the right reasons. This 15th-century canal-side palazzo has been designed by architect Alberto Torsello and the interior design team Zanon Associati to create a slice of Venetian paradise. Terrazzo floors, colourful frescoes and Soffitto a Cassettoni wooden ceilings are just a few of the luxurious finishings here, and the amenities are as functional as they are beautiful. Unwinding as a group feels particularly decadent, especially with a glass of Garganega wine in hand. And with a central location just moments from the Rio di Santa Fosca and Rio del Trapolin canals, you couldn’t be better placed for a Venice stay.

Venetian Sunset

Patio / Terrace

Sitting on the other side of the Grand Canal directly opposite Venezia Santa Lucia, this is a superb starting point from which to explore this unique city. More than that, however, it's an excellent home in its own right, too.

A little more contemporary than many other dwellings you'll find nearby, there's still a taste of tradition in the antique furnishings, the wooden doors that line the main living space and the prettily tiled terrace that lies on the other side. Otherwise, the design is fairly minimalist, with stark white walls and parquet flooring, plus a sleek kitchen that may be a little basic, but will more than suffice for modest meals.

Of course, if cooking isn't on the agenda, there's a good selection of restaurants and bars in the nearby Santa Croce neighbourhood that will keep you fuelled up. Many of the must-see attractions – including the Santa Maria cathedral and the Ca' Pesaro International Gallery of Modern Art – are easily reachable on foot, too.

A Sojourn So Serene

Single-Level Home

Well, it’s totally obvious why this home has made our collection – just look at the stunning views of the Grand Canal from this apartment’s private terrace. It’s the perfect spot for sunset drinks, for sure. There are vistas to enjoy from inside as well, from the large windows in the open-plan living space. If you can tear yourself away from the panorama, this place is in the heart of the city, so it’s close to all the main attractions, too.

The Little Venice

Bursting with charm, this loft-style apartment is the ideal place to call home during a trip to Venice. Located right in the heart of the city, you can kick back and relax in style between your adventures. 

Step inside, and you'll find a beautiful space with sloping wooden ceilings and red marble floors. The kitchen is equipped with everything you need to cook up your favorite Italian meals, and you can serve your culinary creations under the light of the chandelier. And, after you've finished eating, it's time to unwind on the sofa with a glass of wine as you plan your itinerary for the following day. 

It's easy to tick off your sightseeing list from here, as many of the city's most iconic attractions are close by. Walk to the Ca' Pesaro International Gallery of Modern Art in just seven minutes, before wandering to the Palazzo Grassi – it's just fifteen minutes away. And, if you want to explore the city via water taxi, then hop on a boat at the Riva de Biasio stop – it's right outside your front door. 

Gondola Dreams

There are great views across Venice from this stylish home's large private terrace. The apartment is housed in the well-known former thermal power plant built by an architect-engineer of the Ministry of Communications in the 1930s. The layout is upside-down, with the bedrooms below the living space, and there’s a staircase without a railing up to the balcony, so it may not suit guests with kids or those with mobility issues. Out and about, it’s just a seven-minute walk to Piazzale Roma, while the Guglie area and Fondamenta Cannaregio, with its many bars and excellent local restaurants, are five minutes on foot

The Ministry of Vistas	

Desk

We love the views across Venice from this stylish apartment's large private balcony. Housed in a former thermal power plant built in the 1930s, this home has an upside-down layout. There’s a staircase without a railing up to the terrace from the living space, so this apartment may not appeal to guests with kids or those with limited mobility. If you can handle the quirkier aspects though, we think you'll appreciate the location. The transport hub of Piazzale Roma is just a seven-minute walk away, while the Guglie area, the Ghetto and Cannaregio, with its array of restaurants and bars, are a five-minute stroll from this home.

Good Energy

Situated in a residential area of Venice, this apartment allows you to enjoy the city while avoiding the hustle and bustle. There's a small private garden here, which is a rarity in these parts – it is unfurnished, though, so it’s not the most charming space. Inside, the small kitchen means light bites only – but if you have a hankering for something more substantial, there are plenty of restaurants within walking distance. Plus, Santa Lucia train station is only ten minutes away, and there's easy access to excellent wine bars and taverns nearby.

Venetian Oasis

Ceiling Fans

Fenced Property

Garden

This bright apartment located in one of Venice’s residential neighbourhoods allows guests to experience local life in one of the world’s most beautiful cities. Laid out over three floors, the home is full of character, featuring traditional touches like wood beam ceilings and local flare like the nautical rope handrails that run through the stairwells. With multiple bedrooms and living rooms spread across the three floors, there is also a balance of social and private spaces, allowing guests to gather in the main kitchen-diner and ample outdoor patio, or relax in solitude in the comfortable bedrooms and lounges. On top of Venice’s world-renowned sites, guests will also find some of the finest bars and taverns just minutes away.

The Lagoon Life

This apartment is close to the Church of the Madonna dell'Orto and the house where Venetian painter Tintoretto was born. Away from the main tourist areas, you can live like a local here. Back at this home, there’s a private terrace to enjoy a drink and there’s a well-equipped kitchen for when you prefer some home-cooked food. There’s a comfy bedroom with an en-suite, too, but we would say the stairs are fairly steep. Otherwise, this is a great pad to explore all that Venice offers.

Jewel by the Water

Located in majestic Venice, renowned for its winding canals and beautiful architecture, this sleek apartment welcomes you to experience the floating city in style. Recently designed, you’ll immediately notice the high-end touch that’s been given to this modern space – from the teal-coloured armchair to the marble flooring, chic chandeliers and pristine white colour palette. 

It's also wonderfully bright and open, thanks to the pretty Venetian windows and double-height ceilings. Cosy up in your dreamy night-themed bedroom up on the mezzanine level, or rustle up a delicious home-cooked meal in the state-of-the-art kitchen. But the biggest draw is, of course, having your private outside space to relax and drink Italian wine. Complete, with a covered dining table, you'll spend early evenings enjoying an aperitivo out here with friends and family.

While you could spend the entire day basking in the plush atmosphere of this bright pad, get out and explore the sights of Venice. Locally, you're surrounded by wine bars and taverns, while the Ca' Pesaro International Gallery of Modern Art and the famous Ghetto Ebraico are just a short walk from your door.

Nice to haves

With its windows providing stunning low views of the nearby canals, this home is an incredibly immersive Venetian experience. We adore the fact you can enjoy your morning coffee while the gondolas glide past, so close they are practically in the living room. Design lovers will swoon over the carefully curated interior design, full of modernist pieces from top Italian brands. Plus, it also features some old-school charm – a bit of exposed brick here, wooden beams there, and even a frescoed ceiling in the kitchen. Also, its central location in Castello means it's just a stroll to the marvellous square Campo San Giovanni e Paolo and the church of San Zanipolo. 

Where the Canals Flow

The slightly dated decor aside, this apartment makes for a great central base in Venice, with views of the Grand Canal and Santa Lucia train station handily just a bridge away. You’ve also got a plethora of nearby vaporetto (water bus) stops nearby to take you to St Mark’s Square, Rialto Bridge, Lido, or directly to the airport, making it perfect for those with a tightly packed itinerary. While its location is definitely a strong point, the home isn’t without its merits. The views are a plus, the parquet floors and arched windows add old-world charm, and we’re particularly smitten with the tiled en-suite bathroom with its swish rainfall shower. 


The Red Doge

You can live like a local in this area of Venice, just a short walk from the train station and Piazzale Roma. It’s also an easy stroll from the ancient Jewish quarter and the frescoes of Tiepolo of Sant'Alvise and Madonna dell'Orto. Back at this apartment, we love the vaulted beamed ceilings and the views out over the rooftops of Venice. At full capacity, one guest will be sleeping on a sofa bed in the bedroom, so this place might best suit a family.

Venice & Beyond

Overlooking the canal, this waterfront home is the perfect peaceful retreat for anyone looking to explore Venice. Romantic with direct access to the city – Rialto Bridge is only a short walk away, and so is the ferry stop and grocery shops – you get the best of the city, knowing you’re able to retreat to a quiet spot whenever you’d like. 

Admire the unique architecture Venice from the balcony, where you can enjoy a glass of wine as you appreciate the water views. If you hired a boat, you might see it bobbing on the water where it’s privately moored. 

Spend days exploring the city, stopping for coffee, pizza, pasta, and don’t miss out on gelato. When you return, enjoy drinks and nibbles around the kitchen counter as you prepare dinner that you can go on to eat alfresco in the courtyard at sunset. 

Get cosy under exposed beams, read in the library and take advantage of the dedicated desk if you’re visiting Venice for business.

With a Paddle

Funky, modern, and filled with unique design touches, this beautifully eclectic home nestled within a quiet residential area in the Cannaregio district provides a chic and stylish way of getting into the swing of things in Venice. The apartment itself is part of a historic and typically Venetian building, so during your stay you will really begin to feel like a local, thanks to the sense of time and place that fills these spaces. It enjoys a great location close to a Vapretto stop that will take you right into the very heart of the city, whilst also feeling laid-back and less touristy than many other neighbourhoods. Some of the city's most iconic attractions, including the sprawling St. Mark's Square and the Rialto Bridge are reachable on foot in just ten to twenty minutes. 

We simply love the cool monochrome palette, and think it contrasts wonderfully with the accents of the original dark wood features and the traditional marble flooring which give the space character. We're already imagining ourselves sipping Aperol Spritz in the grand living spaces before heading out to sample the fayre in some of the nearby eateries. Or, for something more low-key, perhaps enjoying a homecooked meal filled with rich Italian flavours in the elegant dining area.

This fabulous first-floor apartment in central Venice boasts a combination of authentic architectural features, and inimitable Italian interiors along with elements of modern design. Comprising an open plan kitchen, dining and living room – think chandeliers, wooden floors and beamed ceilings – as well as two beautiful bedrooms, this historic home is perfect for a couple of couples or small family seeking to explore this unique city, known as the ‘Pearl of the Adriatic’.  

You’ll love waking up in the majestic master bedroom and flinging open the wooden shutters for views of canal and canal boats before taking your morning coffee back to bed. Prepare firm family favourites in the well-equipped kitchen and dine together beside the open windows. As the light fades, draw the rich red curtains, light some candles and chill out on the gorgeous green easy chair in the atmospheric living room.  

If you fancy getting out and about, your home’s location on the Campo Santa Fosca in the charming Cannaregio district means you’re within walking distance of an embarrassment of cultural and architectural riches. Why not walk across the ravishing Rialto or wander about the magnificent Piazza San Marco? Alternatively, foodies will be delighted to find that the nearby Fondamenta della Misericordia and Riva del Ormesini offer an excellent choice of taverns and wine bars come lunch, dinner or digestif time.

Relish the sweet scent of wisteria in the spring or enjoy the views over to the bell tower of the church of San Giacomo dell'Orio any time of year when you stay at this elegant apartment in Venice. Decorated in a classical Venetian style, it's the perfect bolt hole for a family, friends or business professionals.

Rialto Bridge is just over 800 metres away, while Piazza San Marco is just over 1 kilometre from this home. The Basilica S.Maria Gloriosa dei Frari is around five minutes on foot and contains many artworks from the Venetian Renaissance period, including Giovanni Bellini's "Madonna and Child with Saints" and the "Pesaro Madonna" by Titian. You'll also find various restaurants and cafes on your doorstep here.



Sweet Scented Wisteria

Set in the Cannaregio district, this apartment makes a great base for an inspiring city stay. Just a few steps from the Ponte delle Guglie, you’ll find easy access to iconic sights as well as local restaurants, bars and shops. The nearest supermarket (described as one of the most beautiful supermarkets in Italy) is a short walk away, and there are great public transport links. Your host can help organise airport transfers and you’ll find everything you could need to settle in and unwind. The rooms are simple, comfortable and family friendly with the handy addition of a sofa bed for one guest.

The views from this home are pretty spectacular. Facing the Cannaregio Canal, you definitely won’t forget that you’re in Venice anytime soon. A mix of Art Nouveau touches and contemporary minimalism, it’s the past meets the present in an elegant version. We particularly loved the modern kitchen – it’s a dream for any chef because of the high-quality appliances and a sociable kitchen island. The location isn’t the most central (it’s a thirty-minute walk away from Piazza San Marco), but Cannaregio is also a charming neighbourhood – and the nearest Vaporetto stop isn't far away.

The Palace By The Canal

There's a lot to love about this dreamy apartment in the heart of Venice. With plenty of character, an excellent location, and a wonderful outdoor space, it's the perfect place to unwind between your adventures in the Floating City. 

The flat is part of a building dating back to the 16th century, and a lot of its historic charm remains. The antique furniture and wooden beams will make you feel right at home, and the serene bedrooms will help you have a great night's sleep. However, the best bit has to be the garden – a space like this is such a treat in the city centre, This leafy sanctuary is the perfect place to sip your morning espresso or relax with a glass of prosecco at the end of a busy day exploring.

From here, you can walk to the Santa Maria Gloriosa dei Frari in around five minutes – it's one of Venice's most renowned churches. You can also hop on a water bus at the nearby vaporetto stop, San Toma, to see the city from the canals. And, you can walk over to the famous St Mark's Square and the neighbouring Doge's Palace in around twenty-five minutes. 

Giardino Nascosto

Venice continues to reign as one of Europe’s most majestic destinations for a dreamy escape. And this apartment, tucked in the streets of Campo Santa Fosca, provides the perfect opportunity to experience the beauty of Italy’s floating city. 

Inside, you’ll find a warm and welcoming space dedicated to bringing ease and comfort to your stay. From the traditional features to the contemporary comforts, the owners have designed each room to inspire a wonderful sense of relaxation. Your host can also arrange a pre-arrival shopping delivery service – ensuring you have everything you could need to settle in and make this space your own.

From here, days can be spent strolling alongside the canals, visiting galleries, admiring the views, savouring aperitifs and sampling local cuisine in nearby Fondamenta della Misericordia and Riva Dei Ormesini. Speak to your host for more tips and recommendations – they have a wealth of information that will ensure your stay is truly unforgettable. 

The Way of Water 

This amazing home is located over Venice’s Grand Canal, situated in a candy-pink Gothic ‘palazzetto’. Sharing this length of water with the sixteenth-century Palazzo Vendramin Calergi – which was the final home of composer Richard Wagner and now the Casino of Venice – this unique home offers incredible views of the waters from your living space and even one of the bedrooms, so you can start every day with that beautiful picture. 

You will enter the home via a private entrance on the Campiello del Remer – Little Square of the Rower – which is hidden from the hubbub of San Leonardo but close enough to the action to experience everything Venice has to offer. 

Your living space offers comfortable sofas with a view out to the Canal below. Plus, the partially-covered south-facing terrace features a bistro table where you can sip your morning espresso or enjoy an authentic gelato overlooking the glittering waters of the Grand Canal, and admiring the vista which extends from Ferrovia, the Scalzi and the Church of San Geremia to the right, across to the Fondaco Dei Turchi – Venice’s Natural History Museum – and to the Rialto to the left.

Stroll to the Jewish Ghetto – just a five-minute walk away – with its towering buildings, museum and rich history, or join the bustle of Rio Terà San Leonardo – just two minutes away on foot – where you will find plenty of shops and food stalls. Plus, from here you will also be able to see the Ponte delle Guglie, a historical canal bridge guarded by gargoyles.

For gondola rides, we recommend walking seven minutes to Cannaregio Canal – where there are plenty of boats to hop onto – and enjoying a trip down a different stretch of waters than the ones you’ve been admiring every morning. With sublime views and a central location that is within walking distance of Venice’s sights, this home offers it all. 

Palazzetto Acqua

Tucked away down a quiet street in Cannaregio, this sophisticated Venetian apartment is an oasis of calm in the heart of the Serenissima. Boasting a secluded communal courtyard and private terrace – ideal for early evening aperitivos – this elegant homestay is the perfect setting for your next group holiday, offering plenty of space to unwind after a long day of sightseeing. Put your feet up in the cosy living room where simple furniture is brought to life by unique design accents, or settle into the master bedroom and feast on views of the historic Madonna dell'Orto. 

When it’s time to explore, you’re just twenty minutes from St Mark’s Square, which is easily accessible both on foot and by water taxi. Spend your afternoon visiting the city’s most famous attractions – think St. Mark's Basilica and Palazzo Ducale – or settle in at a café in the square and watch the world go by.

Tintoretto's Courtyard

Sun Loungers / Beach Chairs

In charming Cannaregio, this home is a great find for families and friends. The walled garden makes a striking first impression, with its outdoor dining area and cherub statues – we can't think of a better setting for alfresco breakfasts and evening tipples. Indoors, you'll find pastel-hued rooms and views of the Rio Della Sensa canal. The home is composed of two apartments divided by a stone staircase. Each level has its own lounge, kitchen, and two en-suite bedrooms. Although the area is a hidden gem without the usual tourists, you're just a thirty-minute walk from San Marco Square and the Bridge of Sighs.

Pastel Palazzo

Amid the historic streets of Cannaregio, this apartment is ideally placed to drop off your bags and explore Venice. From here, it’s a short walk to churches, restaurants, bars and shops (including one of Italy’s most beautiful supermarkets). The train station is also nearby and your host is on hand to help organise airport transfers. It’s worth noting the apartment is on the third floor with no lift access, but you will find everything you could need to settle in and unwind. The rooms are simple, fresh and well-suited to couples in search of practicality and ease. 


Moon Over Venice

A former monastery for one of the oldest churches in Venice, this building is now home to a batch of cosy and characterful apartments. Head up to the first floor and you'll find this flat, where knotted wood beams, traditional Venetian terrazzo floors and vintage antiques all work together to create a charming place to rest your head. After a long day, sprawl out on the L-shaped sofa with a glass of Italy's finest wine before rustling up pasta or other nibbles in the small kitchen. Come bedtime, unwind with a soak under the lavish rainfall shower, then retire to the comfortable bedrooms for some well-deserved shut-eye.

We love the views across to the Natural History Museum – it's practically your neighbour, so you'll be well-placed to explore all of Venice's hidden gems. It's about twenty minutes on foot to St. Mark's Square, ten to Campo San Polo and mere moments from excellent restaurants, bars and shops. Add in the short walk to the waterbus and train station, and we think this flat is hard to beat.

Reflections & Reveries

This smart bolthole offers the double advantage of being within walking distance of Venice's best bits while delivering a peaceful setting in the Cannaregio quarter. Tucked away behind an art gallery in a quiet courtyard and offering a private veranda for evening drinks, you'd hardly believe Cannaregio's bustling cafes and restaurants are just moment's from your door. It's worth noting that if six guests are sharing, the last two guests will be sleeping on a sofa bed – not ideal for some, but it would work great for a family sharing. 

Venetian Wisteria

Perched proudly on the calm waters of the Misericordia Canal, this home's location alone is enough reason for us to praise it to the skies. You'll find it nestled in the lively sestiere of Cannaregio, where you'll find bustling nightlife alongside authentic charm and the city's Jewish Quarter. Here, you're a fifteen-minute walk from the Grand Canal's oldest overpass, the Rialto Bridge, and even closer to the beautiful waterfront palace of Ca 'd'Oro.

Steeped in history, this home impresses before you step through the door with its elegant entrance hall and charming courtyard, brimming with foliage and an authentic vera da pozzo. Inside, it's all exposed brick walls, hardwood floors, and high ceilings adorned with exposed timber beams. It would feel like a step back in time were it not for the stylish decor. Upstairs, a wrought iron winding staircase leads to a cosy office nook on the mezzanine floor, perfect for catching up on work or letting the creative juices flow.

Between adventures, you'll love kicking back in this lavish pad. We especially love the open-plan living space, primed for relaxation with plush upholstery, a fully-equipped kitchen and large doors leading to a large furnished terrace. Spend evenings roosted here, sharing a bottle of wine as the sun sets over the Venetian rooftops.

The Velvet Merchant

Embrace the magic of Venice from this wonderfully chic apartment, right on the Grand Canal. Exploring the city comes with ease here, but you’re far enough from the tourist crowds to get to know the real Venice. Santa Croce is one of the least touristy areas, so you can explore its characteristic restaurants, bars, and more in the residential area. Plus, the bustling Piazzale Roma is a mere 350 metres away. And to visit the city’s notable sights, all you have to do is hop on the vaporetto and you’ll be among the basilicas, museums, and galleries in no time. Of course, you can always walk – it’s a very walkable city, and nothing beats strolling along the atmospheric canals.

When you return home after a day on your feet, you’ll love being invited back by the tall ceilings and gorgeous parquet floors, illuminated by the arched windows. Every corner of this home exudes elegance, drawing on the timeless charm of Venice. Here, you can be inspired by the city from your own space and find the beauty in the little things – whether that’s journalling beside the window, trying your hand at a local dish in the kitchen, or sharing a bottle of wine around the wooden dining table. 

Paint a Dream

You’ll find this apartment just footsteps from Venice’s main railway station – ideal if you’re arriving or departing by train. The canalside streets surrounding this place are home to myriad restaurants, cafes and gelato parlours – not to mention that the main sights of Venice are easily reached on foot (or by water taxi). The furnishings are simple here, but the decor is a pink-hued delight. There’s room to dine in the kitchen area, and if you’re not using the double sofa bed in the living area, it feels like there’s plenty of space.

Venetian Pink

With a private outdoor terrace, unique period features and sleek modern interiors, this bolthole has a lot to like. The location is impressive too. Tucked away behind an art gallery in the peaceful Cannaregio quarter, Venice's best bits, including the Rialto, are all within easy reach on foot. It's worth noting the kitchen only has basic utensils, and there's not enough space at the dining table if six guests stay here, so it might not be the best choice if you're planning family meals. That said, you've got the pick of Cannaregio's cafes and restaurants just moment's from your door.

Venetian Living

Safe

Ideally located in Venice’s Cannaregio neighbourhood, this traditional and stylish pad is within easy walking distance of the city’s historic landmarks and cultural institutions. You can arrive by boat here, with Fondamente Nuove, just steps away. The interiors are considered, with plenty of space for your cohort – the central dining room is the heart of this apartment and where we imagine you’ll share memorable meals. Keep in mind this is a central location, so noise is to be expected, though the artfully-designed bedrooms make falling asleep feel somewhat luxurious.

Venetian Gondola

Streaming Services

Trash Compactor

For those seeking a central base in Venice, this apartment is a contemporary and chic option. It's set up like a studio, though Crittall-style doors seamlessly separate the bedroom from the living area. There's a small kitchen, but with eateries nearby, we bet you'll prefer to dine out. We're fond of the neutral colour scheme, too, but most of all, we're big fans of the location. You'll be a fifteen-minute walk from San Marco Square, right in the heart of the city.
