Strawberry Gelato

This sweet apartment is the perfect place to call home during a whirlwind getaway to the iconic city of Venice. It's part of a recently converted palace in the Campo San Maurizio, just across from the Museum of Music – and the interior is just as fabulous as the location.

You'll fall in love with the lavish pink velvet sofa – it's ideal for stretching out and sipping cocktails as you plan your itinerary. The kitchen is well-equipped with everything you need to cook up a tasty Italian feast, which you can serve at the chic dining space. Bedrooms don't come much more decadent than these ones, which are decked out with ornate headboards and traditional wooden beams – and they all have their very own ensuite bathrooms too.

From here, you're just a ten-minute walk away from both the world-famous St Mark's Square and the Basilica di Santa Maria Della Salute, so ticking off your sightseeing list couldn't be easier. The Sant' Angelo water taxi stop is only two minutes away from the apartment if you'd prefer to travel by canal, and there are also countless restaurants nearby when you need to refuel along the way.
