Historic 14th century Luxury Apartment

Historic apartment of the XIV century, recently renovated and furnished in Venetian style, with exposed beams and Murano glass chandeliers.

The apartment, called Ca 'Ai Putti (House of Cherubini ), located on the first floor in the Dorsoduro district (20 steps), can comfortably accommodate 6/8 guests, with its 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms , kitchen and large living / dining room.
All spaces have been decorated in Venetian style, the polished wooden floors make the house warm and cozy, as well as high ceilings with wooden beams and period features Venetian Gothic windows.

The fully equipped kitchen allows you to accommodate large groups. The bedrooms, each of a different color, is bright and spacious and expertly coordinated style ' Rococo '. Throughout the house you can admire the splendid chandeliers in Murano glass, which give shine and lavishness.
The two bathrooms, one with shower and washing machine and the other with the pond, there are close to two of the three bedrooms.
The apartment is decorated in Venetian style, with Murano chandeliers and colorful fabric wallpaper on the walls.

The apartment is about 300 meters from the Cà Rezzonico ferry stop. Very easy to reach both from Venice Santa Lucia train station (ferry line 1) and from Venice Marco Polo Airport (Orange Alilaguna ferry).

It is located in a quiet area of Venice, in the Dorsoduro district, in one of the most beautiful 'calle', very close to several restaurants and bars.
Dorsoduro boasts a rich presence, second only to the sestiere of San Marco, of churches, palaces and museums.

Right in the center of the sestiere we find Campo Santa Margherita, a space very popular with young university students and tourists, considered one of the most lively places in the city. It is the ideal place if you want to stop and try the "spritz", an alcoholic aperitif prepared with prosecco, aperol (bitter) and sparkling water. At night the Campo is one of the places most frequented by young people, who consider it a meeting place for the Venetian nightlife.

A walk along the Fondamenta Zattere is highly recommended, which will allow you to enjoy a very suggestive view of the Giudecca Canal. In spring-summer it becomes one of the most popular places to walk, thanks also to the rich presence along the Fondamenta of bars, ice-cream parlors and restaurants.

The Zattere and Accademia area is also considered one of the most exclusive in the city as it contains within it the rare examples of modern residential architecture.
300 meters from the Cà Rezzonico ferry stop; you can reach all points of interest (Piazza San Marco - 10 min, Rialto Bridge - 10 min, Architecture Biennale, La Fenice Theater ..).

Upon your arrival you will be greeted with a "small welcome basket" with Italian products and the booking will send you via email a guide of Venice.

The apartment itself was luxurious – silk lined walls in the principal rooms with chandeliers and the well colour-coordinated furnishings and walls– and the kitchen and bathrooms modern and clean.so all of that was positive. And its situated on a quiet calle leading to a friendly campo with restaurants and shops and cafes and near a vaporetto stop so all that is good. But against that there were problems – these include a complete lack of any visitor welcome from the host; no checking in with us that all was OK; no local information eg shopping, chemist, etc; and we had difficulties getting the heating right. Not much of a view either except from one side of the living room. On top of all that : -a very slippery floor in the shower of one of the bathrooms which caused a nasty slip for a family member and a badly cut foot. -the promotion of the apartment on the VRBO site doesn’t say the apartment is situated over a sushi restaurant with an outdoor area immediately below the one of the bedrooms. -the stairs leading up to the apartment from the entrance are covered with plaster dust and grit falling from the damp walls -very difficult to get the keys to work on both the main entrance and the apartment doors - on our return home we received seven texts from the owner accusing us of breaking a loo-roll holder and asking us to pay for this damage – but we did not break this item We thought the apartment was somewhat overpriced

Live like a local in Venice!
Great home close enough to walk to St. Mark’s Square but far enough from the tourist crowds. Local market is just a short walk for food and other essentials. Great food, gondola rides nearby. Comfortable beds. Perfect for family and friends. I highly recommend!

The Word That Comes to Mind is Elegant!
The pictures displayed on the website for this property are accurate, however, they don’t do it justice. This apartment has elegant appointments. It is a visual representation of a time that has passed. Upon entering, it is apparent that the property is well loved and cared for. The walls have elegant coverings. The furnishings are a throwback to an earlier time and are meant to make guests comfortable. The bedrooms are spacious and accommodating. The location is central to most amusements that are desired by visitors. Restaurants and shops are a short walk from the property. Not too far away my husband found my new favorite pistachio croissant and Americano coffee! Our group truly enjoyed the property and location. The only downside, however, was the smells and noise from a restaurant located nearby. We compensated by indulging in more local wine. We were able to find our way to all sites using iPhone maps, and avoiding Google maps, which did not work well.

Fabulous apartment!
The location of the apartment is really perfect--a quiet neighborhood but very close to everything. We loved shopping at the fruit & veg boat and visiting the local cafes. Lots of great restaurants to choose from right nearby. The apartment is so elegant and beautifully restored and furnished--felt like stepping into a time machine. The beds were comfortable and the bathrooms great. A perfect trip. Would happily return!

Our family thoroughly enjoyed the location and home of Scillia’s. They were kind enough to give us lots of recommendations leading into our trip and meeting us to walk us to the apartment. The apartment is gorgeous; well appointed and within walking distance of two beautiful squares. We do wish the air conditioning was stronger during the heat wave as the rooms stayed hot for sleep. Otherwise, fantastic!

Beautiful property in a quiet neighborhood. Approximately 20 minute walk to St Mark’s Square. Beautifully decorated with a well stocked kitchen. Air conditioning and wifi work well, although both sometimes had trouble reaching the back bedrooms. So close to vaporetto station, which was incredibly convenient. Would highly recommend this property!!!!

We loved staying here, away from the hustle and bustle of St. Mark’s, but still conveniently located. The apartment was beautiful and easy to get to from the vaporetto stop. It was the perfect size for our group and everything we needed was provided, so we had no reason to contact our host. We would definitely stay here again.

Perfect stay in beautiful apartment
The stay at Scilla's beautiful apartment was perfect! We were met at the vaporetto stop and escorted to the apartment which was a quick walk. The apartment is stunning with its Venetian decor, high ceilings and Murano chandeliers. The location was near a piazza with plenty of restaurants and shops. It was away from the touristy part of Rialto & San Marco, but close enough to easily go for a tour. It was nice to stay away from the really busy areas. I would highly recommend staying in this apartment. Everything was absolutely perfect!!! Thank you Scilla! Ciao 🇮🇹

Venice Neighborhood Stay
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Scilla and family’s beautiful residence in the Dorsoduro Sestiere of Venezia. The home is even more lovely than the pictures can convey. Our family ranging from 5 years to 85 years found the stay comfortable and relaxing. We ate our dinners I and lunches out which gave us all time together enjoying both Venice and family culture. The bakeries, grocery store, cafes, and even neighborhood sundry stores were just across a bridge in the Camp S. Margherita or down the calle to Camp S. Barnaba. And the gelato at Grom was sublime. We happen to return for another visit to Bella Venezia and to stay in Scilla’s Bella home.

Beautiful, real Venice living
The apartment captures the essence of Venice. The location is wonderful, close enough to all of the "touristy" areas but far enough so that you feel like you are living like a true Venetian. The walls are fabric and the decor is just amazing. You will have everything you need for your stay, Scilla even provided a baby bed and high chair. Communication was outstanding and she was very accommodating when our train was cancelled, delaying our arrival by a whole day. Would stay here again and would absolute recommend to my friends/family.

Wonderful unit in a fun but relatively quiet area of Venice
This property would be at the top of my list for a repeat trip to Venice. The only thing it was missing was a place to relax outdoors (which is hard to find anyway in Venice). Otherwise it was absolutely perfect. The location was ideal for many reasons: the area has everything you'd want including businesses and even an excellent grocery not far away; being across the Grand canal from tourist central meant it was protected from the throngs but was easy to walk to those areas when needed, the square within 2 blocks became a new favorite place to hang out in the evening, and it was a surprisingly reasonable walk to the train station for the traveller with lesser amounts of luggage. The unit was in extremely good condition and very well appointed. A/C was powerful. Communication with owners was easy and they were very helpful in figuring out if this size unit would work for our family.

Amazing Location
What an amazing property! We couldn't have asked for a better location...coffee, food and shopping within a block. We loved everything about the property - the location, the rooms, the air conditioning, the cleanliness, the property manager. Thank you for the complimentary prosecco in the fridge. If you are going to stay in Venice - this is place to stay. The location was not crowded and was perfect walking distance to everything we wanted to do. And, the pizza place at the front door was delicious and so much more than a pizza place. If you are going to Venice - you should stay here.

Charming, lavish, historical apartment in the heart of Venice
My husband and I stayed here with our 3 girls (17, 11, & 6). The apartment was the perfect size for our group and provided good sized bathrooms and bedrooms. Everything was decorated to the hilt in antique fashion to make our vintage stay in Venice that much more authentic...down to the coffee pot and toaster...and living room television. Yet it was very fashionably up to date and provided all of the modern day expectancies. The location was perfect. It was easy to find and Scilla went out of her way to make sure we were comfortable and content. My 6 year old daughter forgot her purse in the room (a small souvenir purchased in italy) and Scilla retrieved it from the apartment and brought it to us at the train station. We so appreciated her random act of kindness and would not accept anything in return for her trouble. We loved the location. It was a great area of town and close to groceries, fantastic restaurants, and beautiful sights. We would recommend this apartment and stay again in the future. Thank you so much for a great stay and experience!

Incredible stay in authentic Venetian apartment!
We loved everything about this apartment! Traveling with our three young children (9,5,3) this apartment was the perfect place to stay for three days in Venice. The area is free from the chaos of the touristy areas but still has great bars and restaurants and an easy walk to every attraction. Scilla was an excellent host who explained easily how to get the apartment and met us there right on time. It was a 3 minute walk from the water taxi stop. Scilla left us wonderful Easter chocolates and prosecco and some crackers for the children. It was such a nice touch. But the real star was the apartment. Spacious and with incredible ceilings. The pictures do not do it justice it is spectacular. The kitchen was fully stocked so it was easy to cook for a family of five (which we did twice). And great laundry facilities (key for families). Overall the kids and I loved being there and the surrounding area. And check out the African restaurant right next door it was a hidden gem that Scilla pointed out. We would absolutely return - and hope to one day!!!

Fabulous Venetian Jewel
This apartment is brilliant. Totally Venetian gorgeous with everything you could want. It is in a great location. We traveled with 3 grandchildren and were comfortable leaving them in Piazza San Barnaba so they could buy their gelati and then sit on the steps on the bridge to eat them before making their way home. We felt very smug going out with our shopping jeep to the supermercato and the canal boat selling the fruit and veg. Scilla was reliable, gracious and generous with our welcome gifts and basic foodstuffs in stock. We have stayed in Venice many times but this was without doubt our best accommodation and location.

Perfect apartment for a family getaway
This apartment was a home away from home in a fantastic location - close enough to the sights, but tucked away a little off the beaten track with a great selection of restaurants, cafes and shops in the neighbourhood. The apartment was spacious, comfortable and immaculately presented. Scilla was an excellent host. We would recommend this apartment to anyone visiting Venice and look forward to returning soon.
