Summary of reviews
The property received outstanding reviews for its luxurious environment, attentive host Massimo, excellent location, spacious accommodations, helpful recommendations, and overall fantastic experience.
10.0 / 10.0
We had the most fantastic stay at Massimo’s stunning home in Venice. It provided our family of 5, ages 4 to 74, with creature comforts, space, convenience, WiFi and tv, and most importantly, air conditioning for 5 days in July. One member with mobility issues was able to easily enter the house (2 steps) and use the 1st floor bedroom and bathroom.
The house is centrally located on a quiet square off the main tourist areas, all within walking distance to the beautiful landmarks, sights, shopping, dining and gelato shops, and water transportation (note: private water taxi stop is about a 3-4 block walk). Staff at restaurants (quite good!) on the square knew Massimo and offered dining discounts.
Massimo communicated with us early and often (even from London!), provided a detailed house manual and resources for must-see sights, dining, tour guides, transportation, grocery shopping, etc. When it was evident we needed an extra suitcase, Massimo even helped us locate several luggage stores.
Massimo went above and beyond before and during our stay. Our son injured his foot the day before in Florence and Massimo was able to direct us to medical care in Venice, even calling us to discuss how to ask our water taxi driver for an additional stop at the hospital on our way to check-in at his home.
Massimo is by far the best host we ever had and his home was a great base to create beautiful family memories of our Venice vacation. Thank you, Massimo & family for sharing your home!

The property is luxurious, our host Massimo was fair, attentive, informative and made our stay all the more special with recommendations and the use of his own personal network in Venice. My family and I could not more highly recommend the property. True Five Star experience.

Massimo's family home was the perfect place for our family to stay and soak in the full Venetian experience. He coordinated water taxis on our behalf, assisted with restaurant recommendations, and suggested family activities to ensure we made the most of our visit to Venice. Thanks, Massimo.

My family of 5 (all adults) stayed here for two nights in May. It’s clear that the owner has taken excellent care of the house, and he has made a lot of updates. We loved the location (no bridge to water taxi), as it was quiet and on a nice courtyard, with an excellent restaurant next door. Massimo, the host, was extremely helpful and always responded promptly to messages. He also supplies a handbook that explains how everything in the house works, as well as suggestions for food, drinks, itineraries, etc. He also offers to have someone grocery shop for you in advance, which we didn’t take advantage of, but wish we had! We will definitely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for an alternative to a hotel.

Massimo’s house is in an outstanding location, very quiet, away from tourists and yet right near everything you want to see in Venice. We had a wonderful stay there as a family. The house is very beautiful and has a few outdoor seating areas to relax with a cup or coffee or a glass of wine. Massimo is very helpful and responsive. He gave us recommendations for water taxi, restaurants and tour guide. We really enjoyed our stay and will happily come back again. Grazie mille Massimo!!

10.0 / 10.0
This house was an incredible place to stay during our time in Venice. Plenty of room inside, comfortable furnishings, well kitted out (we had everything we could possibly need), air conditioning ….very very comfortable. It also had beautiful balconies/terraces that we could sit on and look over all the activity below.
There were great restaurants and cafes in the Piazza, which were great to go to, if we didn’t want to go far, but it was also around the corner from many many great options for food. It was easy to walk to any of the main highlights or catch a taxi or water bus. Our kids met a lot of the local kids in the area and ended up playing soccer and badminton in the square in the evenings which was great.
Massimo and all the people who host his property were a delight to talk to, and very helpful. We will be back again for sure!

This property was absolutely perfect! Set an a quiet Piazza within walking distance of everything. The owner was in contact daily with suggestions of where to go and what to do as well as information about the apartment. The air conditioning worked beautifully and there was plenty of space for our family of six. Highly recommend this property for anyone wanting to experience Venice!

We are group of 8 friends traveling through Europe. Some first-timers to Venice and others who have been here before. One of us came in a wheelchair. There were couple of steps at the main gate that gave us a challenge, but once through the front door, it was great. The downstairs is spacious, with nice modern kitchen and amenities. Upstairs was cozy with enough space for 6 beds.
But the best part was the courtyard in front of the house, with a historic site, restaurants & bistros, cafes, coffee roasterie & souvenir shops, all within reach. Also all the water bus stops, and San Marco Square are all easy to reach via ramp.
Also our check-in agent gave us perfect directions, which can be very tricky to figure out if you are first time in Venice, so getting to the house was fun and easy. Our host Massimo was the best. From the beginning, he understood our challenges and gave us great tips. All of the places he suggested became our favorite places. We all had a great time. I already miss the place.

Love the Location
This house is very roomy. The bedrooms are large, and the living and dining area allow for large spaces for gathering of the family. The location is very near restaurants and a walk to St Marc's Square. Communication was lacking, but then Massimo communicated with us himself from out of town. He made it all better. I would highly recommend this place.

it IS a FIVE star stay: great and very CLEAN, totally CAREFULLY renovated and SPACIOUS place with very TASTEFUL, nice and comfortable furniture / HIGH STANDARD standard equipment and facilities / PERFECT SPOT in town and although NEABRY every interesting spot it is a little off the beaten track / grocery store, bakery, butcher and supermarket in walking distance (lol, what else could it be in Venice) / Massimo and his team was very KIND, highly PROFESSIONAL and helpful with SPECIAL INTERESTS like early check in, late check out (off season stay) and ENOUGH KEYS for the group / welcome bottle of PROSECCO is so so lovely !

Lovely place to stay in Venice
The house was in a fantastic location! Near lovely restaurants, not too far from the main sites and terraces to watch the world go by. The house is really spacious and good facilities. We were sharing with another family and the layout suited this well. Massimo was a great host, lots of good tips and very informative. I would thoroughly recommend and we will return. Thank you

Great flat in great location
We had a great experience in this flat. There were six of us and there was plenty of space. It was a close walk to everything in Venice. Flat is well-maintained And there is air-conditioning in all the key spaces. The only reason for the four star rating is we had an issue with the upstairs toilet.

Quick dip in Venice
A quick trip ended up even shorter due to flight issues. The property is clean and easily accommodated our party of six. It is tucked in a quiet plaza just off the main walkway, and only 5 minute walk from Piazza San Marco... which was magical at night after the swarm of people left. We had hoped to enjoy the Biennale which is also nearby, maybe we will try again in a few years...

Wonderful home in the heart of Venice- spacious and well appointed for families or large group
We ( eight women en route to Dolomites) has a fantastic stay at Massimo’s home in Venice - it is absolutely gorgeous. Massimo is a wonderful host - one of our group had lost luggage and Massimo called from UK to help navigate luggage return . We really appreciated his attention to our dilemma since we had only 2 days in Venice before the start of our hike. He was helpful with restaurant suggestions- sight seeing suggestions and favourite gelato in the city. We all look forward to our return to Venice and hopefully to Massimo’s beautiful home.
Grazie Mille-
Valerie

Perfect location to explore Venice
We were two families with 4 teenage children and the house was perfect for our stay. Our host Massimo was extremely helpful from the moment we booked the villa and offered us some great advice on what to see and do. The house was in a fabulous location - in a lovely quiet square which was close to a lovely bakery and supermarket and numerous restaurants. A few minutes walk and you were in St Mark's Square and all that Venice has to offer! We would recommend the house as perfect for families and groups of friends to stay!

Amazing location in a classy modern apartment
Our family stayed here for a couple days in June 2018. We absolutely loved it. The apartment was clean, modern, well stocked and in the most incredible location. 2 min walk to the Grand Canal, surrounded by a beautiful small piazza with lots of restaurants, shops and groceries. A short, beautiful walk to St Marks Square but far enough away from the tourists and noise that made it even more special.
We just couldn't believe how convenient the place was to everything. On top of that, the A/C worked so well and was really nice to come home to every evening. We slept so well in this apartment. Our family has traveled all over the world and stayed in VRBO's everywhere we've been and this apartment was the only one that was better than description. It exceeded all our expectations. And last thing I will say, is the owner Massimo was incredibly responsive, available and helpful. He sent us a 2-3 day "best of" suggestion list for our family to do and see and everything he recommended, our kids loved. He even told us to a few "off the guide books" spots that we loved! Thanks Massimo.
We will stay in this apartment the next time we are in Venice.

Fantastic home!
Great house! Clean, well appointed, exactly as described and shown. Nearly perfect location, too. For our first time to Venice, we had no idea where we would go or long it would take, and this Home was a great spot. Just a short walk to the Basilica, and just ten minutes to the Rialto area. Would definitely recommend for anyone visiting Venice.

Delightful house in a perfect neighborhood!
We were 3 couples, senior citizens all, who stayed here. It served us very well, but could also be very comfortable for a family with young children. The bedrooms were well appointed: comfortable beds, plenty of closet space, and the upstairs ones had great light. There is a bathroom on each floor. The kitchen is well stocked for cooking, though for us, being in Venice we rarely ate in! However, we could make a cup of coffee or tea if we didn't want to walk a short way to a cafe bar. Other amenities are available: tv and music dock, washing machine, drying racks, games, children's toys. The location is really wonderful--it is short walk to 2 different vaporetto stops, but you don't get a sense of the crowds. Arsenale stop is much less crowded. This little piazza with a history feels pretty quiet. An occasional tour stopped through, but mostly it was young children playing. There is an interesting church right next door, and the bells rang sometimes--lovely ambiance. There is a good stop for a water taxi if you are coming from the airport, if you don't want to haul suitcases over bridges (though it's only one bridge from Arsenale). We learned that mosquitoes are ubiquitous in Venice, but they weren't too bad in this location, and we could open the windows during the day. It is a humid climate, and takes clothes a long time to dry, but there is plenty of floor space for the drying racks. All in all, this is a really perfect place to spend time in a fantastic city.
