Description
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.
For arrivals between 8.00 p.m. and midnight there is an additional cost for "late arrival" of Euro 50, to be paid in cash upon arrival. We organize arrivals between midnight and one o'clock with an additional cost of Euro 100, after this time we reserve the right to accept the customer always with a supplement to be quantified according to the time of arrival.
Beds will be arranged as either doubles or twins as shown in the photos. The possibility of turning a double bed into twins or vice versa can be found in the description and must be requested at least 7 days before arrival.

We could not access the guest wifi (could not locate the network) during our stay but this didn't detract from our long weekend.

We were met at the vaporetto stop by Annalisa who showed us the way to the apartment. She couldn't be more welcoming and helpful. The apartment is as it appears in the photos: spacious, beautifully clean, well supplied with everything you need in a kitchen, crisp sheets and lots of towels. The location is charming with an excellent class-above the regular trattoria on the corner. The apartment is reached via two steep stairs and this may be a concern for some travellers. We highly recommend the apartment.

We had a wonderful stay, and all staff at VoV were so friendly, professional, and prompt in response to our queries. We had a couple of minor problems in the flat: a bathroom tap was broken and the main kitchen/lounge light switch was also broken but VoV helped fix the tap straight away (we only notified VoV of the light switch at the end of our stay as it was not too bad at the beginning and we didn't want to bother the office more). There was quite a bit of construction near the building, and we were very grateful that VoV offered to move us straight away when we informed the office, although we decided to stay where we were in the end because we liked the flat. We had a truly amazing visit to Venice and we loved the flat and the service by VoV was outstanding. We will definately recommend you to all our friends and family, and can't wait to rent from you again. Thank you for helping make our holiday so special.

Ca'Grassi - whilst the furnishings are fairly basic and the ground floor entrance rather uninviting the apartment is very spacious and grew on us the longer we were there. The location is superb being on a fairly quiet route yet close to the lovely Santa Stefana square and the Accademia bridge. It was very easy to walk to all places once we got our bearings and a decent map (most important). Whilst we had to cancel our original booking a month earlier due to illness we feel we probably came off better the second time round particularly with the location. The opening full-height windows in dining/sitting area to the (narrow) balcony was a bonus although too small to use other than to just sit on. We really had a good time. Thankyou.

En ce qui concerne Ca'Grassi 2 , un seul petit reproche : le hall d'entrée au RDC était encombré de matériel de peinture et de travaux .Mais je pense que cela est provisoire et sera vite corrigé !

Along a hidden little alley with a courtyard at its fore,
Sits a quaint Venetian ‘casetta’ with an apartment on each floor!
As ‘cute as pie’, recently revamped in anticipation of your stay, the sleeps 6 (+3) Lo Squero comprises 3 entirely separate apartments* offering comfort, a top location and quiet elegance all the way.
Situated on a peaceful Dorsoduro calle leading to the narrow Rio de Toresele canal where once there stood a squero (boatyard) many, many moons ago, each charming Lo Squero apartment promises a perfect base in Venice for couples, solo travellers and groups of up to 9 when booked as a whole.
‘Hidden in plain sight’ just moments from Campo San Vio**, the Peggy Guggenheim Collection and the dazzling Zattere promenade, and boasting Wi-Fi connection and a washing machine in each, the fully air-conditioned apartments are spread over 3 floors of the property (one per level) and include:
Lo Squero 2 – 1st Floor
Accessed via a main entrance doorway on the calle shared with Lo Squero 3 just above, this tasteful apartment sleeps 2 (+1) and comprises:
Stairs leading up to the apartment entrance
A bright west-facing bedroom suite looking onto the courtyard below, smartly refurb’ed in ivories, cerulean blue and Farrow & Ball’s ‘Ringwold’ botanical wallpaper and furnished with a double sofa bed (housing 2 single mattresses)*** and an elegantly upholstered double bed with comfy topper (that can also be divided into singles at your request)
A newly remodelled dual-aspect kitchen/dining/sitting room complete with full oven, well-lit breakfast bar and a cherry red double sofa bed (housing 2 single mattresses)*** beneath gorgeous sage green walls hung with b&w images of Venice
And completing Lo Squero 2’s accommodation:
A simple tiled 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 units in this characterful Venetian casetta (little house): Lo Squero1 (on the Ground Floor) and Lo Squero 3 (on the 2nd Floor)
** A location featured prominently in David Lean’s iconic film ‘Summertime’ starring Katherine Hepburn, and home to St. George’s Anglican Church in Venice (as well as a manned gondola stand for exploring the canals!)
*** Note that Lo Squero 2 is furnished with 2 double sofa beds (each with 2 single mattresses) giving added flexibility to the sleeping arrangements
OUR COMMENT
A Venetian casetta that’s sure to make you smile, just tucked away on Dorsoduro’s ‘Museum Mile’…
A short amble to the Peggy Guggenheim Collection, the iconic Church of the Salute, the Accademia Galleries and Bridge (and the VOV office!), the Palazzo Cini Gallery, plus the Punta Della Dogana Center of Contemporary Art, and close to a variety of fine eating places and bars including Ai Gondolieri and Ristorante Riviera for fine dining, and Corner Pub, Osteria Al Squero and Cantinone Gia Schiavi for cicheti and spritz.
An easy waterside stroll to 2 Conad supermarkets – one at the western end of the Zattere and a smaller one closer to home at Zattere Spirito Santo – and to 4 vaporetto (water bus) stops – Zattere Spirito Santo, Zattere, Salute and Accademia – for travel around the city (note that St. Mark’s Square can be reached by vaporetto from Salute in under 5 minutes on Line 1!)
Also close to the ‘traghetto’ at Calle Lanza/Calle del Traghetto S. Gregorio which, during operating hours, ferries passengers by gondola across the Grand Canal to the district of San Marco, and within easy reach of the Alilaguna boat stop connecting the Zattere to Venice's Marco Polo Airport.
For arrivals between 8.00 p.m. and midnight there is an additional cost for "late arrival" of Euro 50, to be paid in cash upon arrival. We organize arrivals between midnight and one o'clock with an additional cost of Euro 100, after this time we reserve the right to accept the customer always with a supplement to be quantified according to the time of arrival.
Beds will be arranged as either doubles or twins as shown in the photos. The possibility of turning a double bed into twins or vice versa can be found in the description and must be requested at least 7 days before arrival.17 reviews -
