Small Palace in the center of Venice with 4 Apartments
Quiet location close to the Grand Canal, near the Basilica of the Salute
1 and 2 Bedroom Apartments
|
|
Palazzetto da Schio overlooks Rio della Fornace, between the Guggenheim Collection and the Basilica della Salute, only one vaporetto stop away from St. Mark's Square. It is therefore very quiet, away from the noisy crowds, and, at the same time, close to the heart of Venice. The house has been recently restored therefore provides modern comfort, but preserves all the charm of the antique family furniture of the da Schio family.

Changeover day
Arrival and departure dates and times are flexible. Guests are asked to be ready at 9am only if there is another family arriving in the apartment on the same day (as the cleaning of each apartment takes 3 or 4 hours).
Notes on accommodation
Each apartment is equipped with satellite TV and DVD player.
Each apartment has independent heating and air-conditioning.
A baby bed and equipment for toddlers is available on request but, because antique furniture is delicate children should be well supervised for their own safety and also for the safety of the furnishings.

Owner profile
About the owner
I grew up in this house where my family has lived for many generations, so I love it very much. When guests come here I like sharing it with them and I do my very best to make them comfortable so that they may also love this house a little and retain happy memories of their holidays here. Venice is not only the Dogal Palace and Rialto Bridge: it was built with loving care by hundreds of thousands of Venetians through the centuries and our homes are the living testimony of this tradition which I try to continue.
Why the owner chose an apartment in this location
I didn't buy this house: my family has lived here for many generations. I feel lucky, living here, because the area is very quiet, away from the noise of the crowds and of the traffic, and yet only one vaporetto stop away from St. Mark's square. It is also well served by the "traghetto" (gondola-ferry) close to the house and by the vaporetto stops of Salute, Accademia and Zattere.
Unique benefits of the property
I manage my apartments and take care of my guests personally, not through an agency as most owners do in Venice. I also live in the house and my door is open all day. If my guests need anything, want help or information, they simply drop in for a chat. I like to share my house with the guests and let them experience life in a real Venetian home. The furniture is mostly antique from the 17th and 18th centuries. People who come here can enjoy the "real thing", not imitation. Obviously, what did not exist in the past centuries, like washing machines, microwave ovens and WIFI Internet is modern and up to date.
