Ca' Del Gabbiano Venedig - Ferienwohnung

We were greatly impressed with the apartment, as well as the whole process of dealing with the company, booking, check-in and check-out process. The apartment itself had many windows in the living room and in the bedrooms. The kitchen was very well equipped, coffeemakers (3) (Italians love their coffee), fridge, freezer, large oven, 2 bathrooms, one in each room, lots of towels were provided and bed linen was changed once since we stayed for more than 7 days (8 days in total). We were on a 5th floor, we had a magnificent view from the Santa Maria de la Salute church right from the living room, and we had a nice view of the Campo Sant’Anzolo down below. Also, we had a rooftop terracealtana, we had stairs going to the rooftop and you were rewarded with a 360 degree view of the city. It was great during the New Year celebration, as fireworks were fired for more than 20 minutes, we had unobstructed views, took some memorable pictures and videos of it. The apartment is in the 5th floor, not a big deal to take the stairs every day, it was part of the charm of the experience. So you better be somewhat fit,just take your time to go up, recover your breath midway if you need and then continue. Our teenager kids pretty much ran upstairs every time and it wasn’t an issue at all for them. Neither for us. It was cold during our stay, in the 30-45 Fahrenheit degree range, keep in mind Venice is at the North of Italy not that far from the Austrian border, so it does get cold in the winter. We would have used the terrace more during a warmer period, but it was nonetheless a nice bonus to have. Location-wise, it was perfect, as it’s not in a crowded area and very close to all the amenities, so you avoid the crowds. Just 5-7 minutes away, you reach L’Academmia Bridge, so you get right into the Dorsoduro area, very residential and not very commercial, which was wonderful. From the apartment to the actual Santa Maria de la Salute church is a nice 15 minutesso walk. Going the opposite direction of the one above, you can get to the heart of the San Marco sestiere, where the crowds dramatically increase in size, and the more commercial side of Venice appears. Here you can easily get to Piazza San Marco in 10 minutesso. What we enjoyed the most was the excellent location of the apartment, far enough to avoid the crowds but close enough to get anywhere in just a 10 minute walkso. One day the heater was not working and we contacted Annalisa from Views On Venice by email, and literally in less than 10 minutes, the owner of the apartment came to check what was going on (he happens to live in the same building) there was a setting that we accidentally moved to the low temperature side, so the temperature wasn’t increasing. I was impressed by the speed of the response. Overall, this apartment made the Venice experience significantly better for us, more authentic. I would definitely recommend and would use again Views On Venice, when we return. Thank you!

Our stay was absolutely wonderful. THe apartment was perfect although I have marked it down slightly due to the number of stairs up to it. We were aware of the number of flights before we left - but didn't anticipate how difficult they would be in warm weatherwhen carrying luggage. The only other slightly negative comment is that the crockery and glassware is not in the kitchen area but in a large cupboard in the living area. There was nothing else we were less than satisfied with. The apartment is beautiful. Comfortably furnished with an eclectic mix of furniture styles which added to the charm of the apartment which was clean and tidy. The beds were very comfortable. The altea was amazing - and was a great reward for climbing so many stairs! We watched 2 lightning storms from there with a bottle of prosecco and an amaretto, and even managed a couple of hours sunbathing up there while resting my weary feet. All in all, our party of 4 adults had a fabulous break in Venice with this wonderful apartment as our base - and would not hesitate to recommenduse Views on Venice again in future. Thanks for everything!

David Riley - Whitstable

Hi Guys! I'm sure that we'll have another stay at Ca' Del Gabbiano because it has a individual flair so that we feel like home. One point we would change: We don't need a TV but a good HiFi would be great. Kind regard, Gerhard Kunze - Allensbach

We really enjoyed our stay the appartments central location was most helpful seeing all of Venice. I painted whilst there and it was a great location to work from whilst having my family with me I even enjoyed the stairs to keep me fit .I highly recemond your organisation.
Ramie Leahy - Kilkenny

We would like to join all below mentioned predominantly positive appraisals of this apartment. It is tastefully furnished, spacious and is very quite despite its central location. An old venetian building with its impressive staircase deserves a special attention as well. The roof terrace with a terrific view over Venice needs to be seen and enjoyed with more than one glass of Prosecco! Satellite TV needs probably some improvement, as it offers only a few programs (just in case it rains outside..). All in all highly recommended lovely place. Thanks a lot for providing such a nice atmosphere for our stay in Venice.
Giedre & Gediminas - Lucerne

The apartment was wonderful: amazing views, comfortable beds, well equipped, stylish, and the service from Views on Venice was excellent. As an add on service, you could perhaps offer a starter pack for the kitchen of milk, coffee, orange juice, bread etc.
Heather - Boxford

VOV were excellent all round, every time I e mailed with a query they were fast and efficient with a response. Both representatives were helpful and met us at the apartments as requested. The written apartment and Venice guides that had been left in the apartments were extremely helpful I would highly recommend this company. I will certainly be using them when I return to Venice.
Christine Hawke - Bridgend

We had a fantastic stay in Venice and were very impressed with the level of service we received. Everyone we came in contact with at Views on Venice provided a very high level of customer care. The apartment itself was very clean and comfortable and exactly as described except for the views from the terrace which had to seen to be believed. The only thing we could suggest was to maybe offer a very basic welcome pack on arrival. We arrived relatively late in the evening and immediately had to visit a supermarket for water, milk and bread. We have already recommended this apartment and Views on Venice to others.
Rhona Little - Troon

We very much enjoyed our stay at Ca Del Gabbiano. The apartment did not disappoint it was very true to the photographs on the website, well appointed and equipped with everything we could possibly need. The view was spectacular, particularly from the generous rooftop and the 108 steps didn't bother us too much as the staircase is wide and elegant. Be sure to use the mosquito prevention available as, with the windows open, they did disturb our sleep on a couple of nights. Ca Del Gabbiano is well positioned on a piazza and easy walking through restaurants and shops to all the major sites. It is very close to the beautiful opera house, La Fenice. All went exactly according to plan and we highly recommend.
J Fitzgerald - Melbourne

Merci pour avoir bien organisé notre arrivée à Venise. L'appartement est tout simplement génial. Nous avons profité de la vue de la terrasse en bois, c'est divin. L'appartement est super propre, rien à dire. Nous conseillerons votre agence si l(occasion se présente.
BENOIT - Paris

We lived being here, a great location and well worth the climb of the 108 stairs to get there! A welcome pack of a few essentials would be a really good idea and a nap to the local supermarket.
Norman Hatcliff - GRANTHAM

The apartment is very nice, with a great location and atmosphere. The altana is amazing. The beds are comfortable. There is no elevator so it's not a good choice for elder people. The only thing that should be repaired (changed) is a dishwasher as it does not work properly. This was not a problem for us, since mainly we were eating out, but might be a problem for a family with children. We'll definitely be back!
Victoria - Moscow

We all enjoyed staying in an apartment in Venice instead of in a boutique hotel. This we enjoyed very much and we will for sure be back !! Thank you and have a great season.Cornelia & Family

The apartment was perfect and we loved staying there. It was spacious, spotless, well appointed and lovely. The roof terrace was a fantastic bonus the views were breathtaking! In addition, your service and responsiveness to the small problems that arose were excellent and timely. We could not have been happier and look forward to visiting again, and would of course use Views on Venice again. Thank you so much!
