An Oasis in the Heart of the City, Minutes from St Mark's
Restored Second Floor Apartment in Historic Building
Sleeps 5 (2 Bedrooms + sofa bed)
|

Our flat in Ca'Amadi is just minutes from the vaporetto stop at Rialto (lines 1 and 2), a short journey down the Grand Canal from the main arrival points of Piazzale Roma and the Ferrovia (railway station). A truly magical way in which to arrive! The flat is on the second floor of this interesting 16th Century building and has recently been extensively modernised. It is reached by a shared entrance staircase off the Corte and is fully furnished and equipped to a high standard. Ca'Amadi lies on the edge of the sestiere (district) of Cannaregio, a local residential area and a true 'Venetian’s Venice', with a wealth of food and artisan shops, bars and restaurants. Well stocked library, with Venetian guides, history and cookery books. Our own detailed personal guide to our favourite places to see, eat and shop.

Further details
Venice – La Serenissima - the most magical city on earth. We have made frequent visits to Venice for over 20 years and have produced for our guests a personal guide to the city, listing our favourite places to visit, eat and shop. From the busy Campo San Bartolomeo, a street leads north towards the Church of San Giovanni Crisostomo, off which is the square of the Teatro Malibran, one of the city's major venue for classical concerts. The Corte Ca'Amadi lies just to one side. Nearby is the house where Marco Polo lived. Being on the edges of the sestieri of Cannaregio, Castello and San Marco, it is extremely convenient for the city's main attractions, all of which are in easy walking distance. Equally, the quieter residential areas, with shops, bars and restaurants can easily be found close by and 'off the beaten path'. Vaporetti for the outlying Islands of Murano, Burano and Torcello leave from the Fondamente Nuove, again a short walk away. Close by, across the Rialto Bridge are the spectacular daily fish and vegetable markets and the residential sestieri of Dorsoduro and San Polo. 'Streets flooded. Please advise'. Robert Benchley, journalist (telegram from Venice to his editor).
