The Venetian Flower

The Venetian Flower: Veneto

On the top floor of a 16th-century palace right on the Grand Canal, this one-of-a-kind apartment enjoys bespoke furnishings from a range of designers, including the owner. While not the best option for families with young children due to the vintage and delicate furniture, it's a great choice for couples or solo travellers. The central location is the icing on the cake – the views over Santa Maria dei Frari are lovely. The train station is a short walk away and you're right next to a water taxi stop. Plus, there are bars and restaurants nearby.

Home truths:
*The building has a courtyard which isn't photographed, but we expect consistency in style and quality throughout.
*At full capacity, one guest will sleep on the sofa bed in the living area.
*You'll find expensive artwork and furnishings here, so only children over 12 years old may stay here.
*Storage in the bedroom is minimal, so we recommend packing light.
*There's a chance you'll hear some noise from neighbours during your stay.
*This is a lived-in home. You should expect some of the host's personal belongings to be present during your stay.
*Your host has a property manager who will interact with you during your stay.
*It's just a few steps from the San Tomà Vaporetto stop.
