Description
Welcome to the distinctive Ca’ Del Monastero, an elegant collection of beautifully restored apartments located within the former monastery connected to the ancient Church of San Zan Degolà, one of Venice’s oldest and most fascinating churches. Nestled in the authentic district of Santa Croce, just moments from the Grand Canal, the residence offers a rare opportunity to experience Venice from a privileged and peaceful setting.
Carefully renovated throughout, the apartments blend historic character with contemporary comfort. Traditional Venetian terrazzo floors, refined finishes and thoughtfully selected furnishings create welcoming interiors designed for modern living while preserving the building’s rich heritage.
Enhanced by a range of modern amenities, including air-conditioning***, Wi-Fi connection and communal utility facilities, Ca’ Del Monastero provides the perfect base from which to discover Venice while enjoying the atmosphere of one of the city’s most genuine neighbourhoods.
Ca’ Del Monastero 8
Bright, elegant and exceptionally welcoming, Ca’ Del Monastero 8 is a charming one-bedroom apartment offering comfortable accommodation for up to four guests, together with access to a delightful shared internal courtyard.
Situated on the second floor of the residence and reached by stairs, the apartment enjoys a peaceful position overlooking the quiet Salizada and towards the historic grounds of the Natural History Museum, housed within the remarkable Fondaco dei Turchi.
Accessed through a separate entrance from the Salizada below, the apartment immediately conveys a sense of tranquillity and comfort. Soft neutral tones, elegant wall coverings and carefully coordinated furnishings create bright and inviting interiors throughout.
The welcoming living room is furnished with a comfortable sofa bed and armchair, providing an ideal space for relaxing after a day exploring Venice. Large windows allow natural light to fill the room while maintaining a calm and private atmosphere.
Adjacent to the living area is a fully equipped kitchen with dining space, offering everything required for preparing breakfast, lunch or dinner in complete comfort. Contemporary finishes and practical design make the space both functional and attractive.
The elegant double bedroom provides a peaceful retreat, featuring refined furnishings, generous storage space and a soothing colour palette designed to promote rest and relaxation.
The modern bathroom is finished to a high standard and includes a spacious shower.
A further highlight of the apartment is access to the attractive furnished internal courtyard on the ground floor. Shared exclusively with guests of Ca’ Del Monastero 5, this quiet outdoor space offers a rare opportunity to enjoy a peaceful moment away from the bustle of the city, whether for a morning coffee, an afternoon break or an evening aperitivo.
Comfortable, practical and perfectly positioned, Ca’ Del Monastero 8 is an ideal choice for couples seeking additional space or for small families wishing to experience Venice from an authentic residential setting.
The furnished internal courtyard is shared with guests staying at Ca’ Del Monastero 5.
Ca’ Del Monastero 8 and Ca’ Del Monastero 5 occupy a separate section of the residence with an independent entrance from the Salizada, creating an intimate and private setting within the larger Ca’ Del Monastero complex.
When booked together, the two apartments offer an ideal solution for extended families, couples travelling together or groups of friends who wish to stay close to one another while maintaining the privacy and independence of separate accommodations. The shared courtyard provides a welcoming space for gathering and socialising, combining conviviality with the comfort of having one’s own private apartment.
Our Comment
A bright and elegant apartment combining comfort, privacy and authentic Venetian atmosphere, complemented by the rare advantage of a peaceful shared courtyard.
The location is ideal for discovering Venice on foot. Venice Santa Lucia Railway Station and Piazzale Roma are within easy walking distance, while the vaporetto stops at Riva di Biasio and San Stae are just moments away, providing convenient access to all areas of the city.
One of Venice’s most charming squares, Campo San Giacomo dell’Orio, lies just around the corner. Beloved by locals, this picturesque square is surrounded by cafés, small shops and a well-stocked supermarket, offering visitors a genuine glimpse into everyday Venetian life.
Nearby you will find a wide selection of excellent restaurants and traditional bacari, including All’Anfora, La Zucca, Il Refolo, Al Prosecco and Antica Besseta.
The apartment is also conveniently located for visiting Ca’ Pesaro, Palazzo Mocenigo, the Fondazione Prada at Ca’ Corner della Regina, the Basilica dei Frari, the Scuola Grande di San Rocco, Campo San Polo and the vibrant Rialto district with its famous market and culinary delights.

Not a con, but just a note for folks considering this unit. This unit is on the top floor. So be prepared to haul your luggage up a couple of flights of stairs.

The apartment is in a lovely quiet yet convenient area, near a genuine local square. It was lovely to hear the sound of kids playing in the grounds of the nearby school. It is fresh, clean and well equipped - the only issue we had was not being able to turn the heating off - but maybe our ineptitude. A good value apartment with a small living area but roomy bedroom and kitchen. Overall, a thumbs up.

I had a really splendid holiday in Venice. The lovely apartment, and the kindness and efficiency of Annalisa, Marco and Cristina during the booking process and on my arrival, were first-rate. As a single traveller, it is very important to me that I feel reassured and comfortable with the arrangements and that everything goes well when I reach Venice - that can be an anxious time, but Views on Venice made me feel welcome, and, indeed, like a privileged visitor. I am very grateful to you all and I will most certainly contact you again the next time I visit Venice.

Views on Venice was a beautiful place to stay. Very professional staff made checking in easy and provided us with a great map that made navigating Venice a bit easier. The unit was fully equipped with everything we needed. One of the best parts of this unit is its location! We were very close to all of the sights and two amazing restaurants, but it was far enough away that it was quiet with very little tourist foot traffic. We were excited to use the patio posted in the photos, however it is on the first floor and the apartment is on the third which made it less inviting to use- other than that, the unit made our stay in Venice very memorable!

Über der Arbeitsfläche wäre eine Leuchte gut. Die kleinste blaue Pfanne funktioniert nicht auf Induktion. Ein Schneidebrett war uns zu wenig, jetzt gibt es 2. Und ein guter Kochlöffel wäre schön. Im Bad wäre ein Becher für Zahnbürste noch gut. Sonst wirklich gut ausgestattet. |

Sojourn in style in a serene palazzo setting and unlock the secrets of Palazzo Vendramin…
… An exquisite apartment expertly created within a 15th-century canal-side palazzo near the Church of Santa Fosca in the heart of Cannaregio.
Sensitively steered into the 21st century under the direction of noted Venetian architect Alberto Torsello, Palazzo Vendramin provides a calm, unruffled and historically fascinating backdrop to this exceptional Dimora Italia apartment, named ‘Varoter’ (see its dedicated description below).
Integrating chic Italian design with meticulously restored architectural details, this remarkable property offers guests a unique opportunity to sample the joys of elegant palazzo living in one of the most authentic Venetian districts in town.
Standing imposingly on the Fondamenta de Ca’ Vendramin, between the Rio di Santa Fosca and Rio del Trapolin canals, well hidden from the tourist footfall yet with an excellent variety of local amenities very close at hand, Varoter enjoys the best of both worlds.
Thought to have once been home to the large and illustrious Vendramin family (merchants trading in oil, cheese and salted meat, and producers and sellers of soap – the latter bringing them great fame and fortune over time), and representing a harmonious blend of the historical and the contemporary, the palazzo’s cavernous communal ‘androne’ hallway with majestic stone staircase and walls embellished with frescoes provides a fitting welcome at the start of your stay.
And with a nostalgic nod to a bygone era, the apartment Varoter has been named in homage to Venice’s traditional tradesmen and craftsmen, or ‘mestieri’, who in times past would have been familiar characters within La Serenissima’s labyrinth of calli and campi.
An exquisite pied-à-terre on the second floor to the front of the Palazzo (reached by lift) - large, bright and featuring a fabulously tall frescoed ceiling, Venetian terrazzo flooring, a mezzanine bedroom above, and French windows opening onto a long marble balcony overlooking the tranquil Rio di Santa Fosca Canal.
Sleeping 2 (+1) guests, its accommodation comprises –
- An entrance lobby
- An open-plan main sitting/dining room furnished with a plush double sofa bed, a pair of leather Barcelona chairs with matching footstools, and a dining suite seating 4 beneath the mezzanine above
- A well-equipped kitchenette with immaculate brushed stainless steel units
- A pristine bathroom with a traditional style bathroom suite and large modern shower
Glass balustraded staircase with wooden treads rising to
- A glass sided mezzanine, home to a double bed set upon polished wooden flooring and gazing up at the spectacular frescoed ceiling overhead!
**Are you a part of a larger group who’d like to stay close together but in separate apartments? We have another apartment within the Palazzo: , Sartor .
OUR COMMENT
A beautifully furnished jewel of an apartment in a privileged position in the Cannaregio ‘sestiere’…
… A much-loved district with a traditional old-world charm characterised by peaceful residential areas, a host of historic landmarks including the spectacular fairy tale Ca’ d’Oro and the ancient Jewish Ghetto, plus long and wide canal-side ‘fondamente’ including the Fondamente de la Misericordia and de la Sensa (with their fabulous selection of local restaurants and ‘bacari’ – including our favourites Anice Stellato, Paradiso Perduto, Vino Vero and the new-ish - and characterful - bookshop-bistrot-cafe Sullaluna), plus the Fondamente Nove – Venice’s northern waterfront overlooking the waters of the lagoon towards the distant peaks of the Dolomite mountains.
Within an easy stroll of some wonderful churches including the dainty jewel-box Santa Maria dei Miracoli, the Gesuiti with its towering white façade and statues of the Apostles, and Madonna dell’ Orto - final resting place of the painter Tintoretto who lived nearby.
Close to the Strada Nova where you find shops galore to satisfy all your shopping needs! plus a well stocked Coop Supermarket at San Felice.
Convenient to 3 vaporetto (water bus) stops – San Marcuola (Casinò), Ca’ d’Oro and Madonna dell’ Orto – the latter allowing for easy travel to the beaches of the Lido and to the glass-blowing island of Murano, with connections at Fondamente Nove to the rainbow-coloured island of Burano and the island of Torcello.
Also a stone’s throw to the traghetto at Campo Santa Sofia, which during operating times, ferries passengers by gondola across the Grand Canal to the Rialto Market in the district of San Polo.
***Please note that the operation of air conditioning and heating are subjected to the municipality regulation. Generally, the heating works from middle of October to middle of April, while air conditioning works between middle of Aprile to middle of October. Please contact us for further information.

Three newly revamped apartments in a pretty, salmon-pink, antique palazzetto within the calm and cultured setting of upmarket San Samuele.
Elegantly attired in a classic, homely style and peacefully positioned within a genteel neighbourhood dotted with galleries and antique shops well clear of the hustle and bustle yet close to Campo Santo Stefano, these inviting apartments are of differing sizes and sleep up to 10 guests when taken together.
Just a few steps from the renowned Palazzo Grassi Museum of Modern Art in a parish that legendary lover Casanova called home, the palazzetto offers a stylish address to rest easy within a short and pleasant stroll of the many attractions of St. Mark’s Square.
Moments from the illustrious Palazzo Mocenigo on the Grand Canal (the one time Venetian bolthole of ‘mad, bad and dangerous to know’ British romantic poet and literary figure, Lord Byron) and boasting air-conditioning, Wi-Fi and a warm and welcoming ambience in each, the Ca’ Grassi apartments comprise:
Ca’ Grassi 2 (Sleeps 3 on the 2nd Floor reached by stairs – no lift)
Communal palazzetto entrance with stairs rising up to the apartment entrance
• Bright, cheerful and situated to the front of the palazzetto – a spacious and tastefully furnished main sitting/dining room/well-equipped kitchenette freshly decked out in buttermilk yellow and with a double sofa bed, a dining table for 4, traditional Venetian terrazzo flooring and a wall almost entirely composed of floor-to-ceiling glazed doors flooding the room with light and opening directly onto a romantic columned balcony, a superb vantage point from which to observe the comings and goings along the 'Salizada' below
• A light and airy double bedroom with 4-poster double bed, terrazzo flooring and a charming, restful atmos
And completing the accommodation:
• A smart, refitted contemporary style bathroom with shower
* Are you part of a larger group who’d like to stay close to each other but in separate apartments? We offer 2 other apartments in this Venetian palazzetto (little palace): Ca’ Grassi 1 (on the 2nd Floor) and Ca’ Grassi 3 (on the 3rd Floor)
OUR COMMENT
A tried and tested property with a beautiful balcony, much loved by previous guests, now refurbished and offering comfortable and peaceful accommodation in a great spot.
Situated right beside ‘Casa Veronese’ (once the home of the 16th Century Italian Renaissance painter, Paolo Veronese) and within steps of the neighbourhood grocery store/delicatessen, a wine shop, a range of cafes/osterie (including those fringing the nearby Campo Santo Stefano), plus the gallery of interior designer Chiarastella Cattana - a discreetly sophisticated showroom of fine and distinctively woven textiles and furnishings – and, for scent-lovers, the Venice outlet of the famous Florentine ‘Officina Profumo Farmaceutica di Santa Maria Novella’ (one of the oldest pharmacies in the world and one time fragrance maker to Catherine de’ Medici).
A stone’s throw to the Accademia Bridge crossing the Grand Canal over to Dorsoduro and conveniently close the vaporetto (water bus) stops at San Samuele and Sant' Angelo for easy travel around the city, and to the ‘traghetto’ gondola ferry which, during operating times, carries passengers across the Grand Canal between Calle Del Tragheto (near Sant’ Angelo) and San Toma in the district of San Polo.
