CA' DORSO, Venice

Ca' Dorso's location balances peace with convenience: the narrow street is quiet, yet Frari Basilica is 3 minutes away and the Accademia Bridge is a 5-minute walk. Piazzale Roma (the main transport hub for airport buses) and the Zattere waterfront promenade are both about 10 minutes on foot. A supermarket, several restaurants, and a pastry shop are within two blocks. The host sends a precise walking route because GPS often fails in the alleyways. Boating and cycling are available in the surroundings, and the area's top-rated position (9.9) reflects easy access to all major landmarks without being in the tourist core.

The apartment sleeps up to 4 - the main bedroom has a double bed, the second bedroom has a single bed, and a fourth standard adult bed can be placed in the single room (confirm with the host). There is one bathroom with a shower, free toiletries, and a washing machine. The living room includes a dining table and seating area. The kitchen is well equipped with a stovetop, refrigerator, dishwasher, microwave, electric kettle, cookware, and basic cooking ingredients such as oil, salt, and spices. Extra touches like tea, coffee, butter, jam, and bottled water are provided. Air conditioning and double-glazed windows keep the apartment cool and quiet, and parquet flooring, closet space, and extra pillows add comfort. The apartment is larger and brighter than photos suggest, with a garden view from the back.

The fully equipped kitchen has a stovetop, fridge, dishwasher, microwave, and all necessary cookware and utensils, plus basic cooking staples like oil, salt, and spices. Breakfast basics (butter, jam, bread, coffee, tea, milk, juice, hot chocolate) are provided for the first day. A minimarket is adjacent, and several restaurants - including Trattoria da Silvio, Osteria Ai Do Farai, and Pasticceria Tonolo - are within 0.5 km. The host shares personal recommendations for pizza and gelato. No restaurant is on-site, but cooking at home is easy, and the lively but non-touristy street offers plenty of local dining choices.

The apartment is accessed by key, with a private check-in process where the host meets you at the property, provides a city orientation, and can be reached via WhatsApp before and during the stay. A fourth bed can be added for groups of four. Luggage storage is available after check-out. The property has smoke alarms, fire extinguishers, and key access for security. There is no reception on site. Wi-Fi is free and fast. No parking - the nearest is the Tronchetto car park connected by the Moveo shuttle to Piazzale Roma, or direct drop-off at Piazzale Roma. No pets allowed. The entire apartment is a non-smoking area. Bike tours are available at an additional charge. The washing machine inside the apartment is a practical bonus for longer stays.
