The Lion's Share Venezia, Veneto

Property Description

For a quintessential Venice experience, look no further than this recently renovated waterside apartment. Each morning, step out of bed and straight onto one of two Juliet balconies and take in spectacular views over Canale Dei Greci. We can't think of many more indulgent ways to bookend each day than with a bath in the freestanding tub while looking out over the water.

It's conveniently located in Castello – the largest of Venice's six sestiere – you'll find upmarket boutiques, fantastic restaurants and atmospheric cafes lining its vibrant streets. The iconic St Mark's square is just a short stroll away, with the historic Rialto Bridge lying just beyond. Wander in the opposite direction and you'll eventually encounter the beautiful Biennale Gardens on the easternmost point of the island. Access to the city's other islands couldn't be easier, thanks to your proximity to the San Zaccaria vaporetto stop.

Home truths:
*At full occupancy, two guests will be sleeping on the sofa bed in the living area
*Venice is a car-free city, so you won't need to hire a vehicle
*The bedroom is only accessible via a floating marble staircase, so the home may not be suitable for guests with more limited mobility
*Given the central location, some street noise is to be expected
