The place is like your typical nonno's house. Everything is on the older/more classic side, like shown in the pictures, but it all functions greatly! Franco is very kind, all things are clear, and the laundry machine was a nice and welcome surprise for us after camping for a while. The closest supermarket is a 5 minute walk and there are lots of great prosecco wineries, cute villages and great restaurants within 15 minutes driving. Sitting on the patio, directly at the vineyards, makes for a great moment to relax.

Nous avons séjourné dans plusieurs Airbnb, mais celui-ci est sans aucun doute le meilleur que nous ayons testé jusqu’à présent ! L’accueil était parfait ! Gisela et Marco vous accueillent avec le sourire et vous mettent immédiatement à l’aise. De petites attentions très appréciables : de l’eau fraîche dans le réfrigérateur, ainsi que des spaghettis et de la sauce. La maison est moderne, très bien équipée et parfaitement entretenue : climatisation, piscine, salle de sport, hamacs, terrains de sport, transats, barbecue… Elle est située dans un endroit calme et paisible, à 10 minutes de la plage et à environ 1h de Venise, tout en étant proche des commerces. Quelques petits points à noter : une douche qui avait tendance à se boucher, les moustiques sont nombreux le soir et le Wi-Fi est assez capricieux. Nous avons passé une superbe semaine dans cette maison. Un véritable havre de détente, idéal pour profiter et visiter Venise. Nous recommandons vivement ! Gisela et Marco sont au top !

Nous avons beaucoup aimé le logement de Chiara. Son emplacement est parfait : une arrivée rapide et pratique depuis Piazzale Roma (8mns depuis le parking). J’adore ce quartier paisible et très vénitien loin des touristes et de la foule de San Marco. Et la piazza Santa Marguerite, une merveille de vie locale. J’y retournerai les yeux fermés. Merci à Chiara pour sa gentillesse et sa bienveillance. À bientôt.
