CASANOVA APARTMENT SAN MARCO, Venice

The Casanova Apartment San Marco is located in a small alley just steps from St. Mark's Square, yet it remains quiet and free from the tourist bustle. La Fenice Theatre is 300 metres away, and the Doge's Palace and Basilica San Marco are both within 3 minutes on foot. The Rialto Bridge is a 7-minute walk, and the Ca' d'Oro is 1 km. The closest vaporetto (water bus) stop is about 2 minutes away, providing direct access to the train station and Marco Polo Airport (18 km). Treviso Airport is reachable by a 1-hour bus plus a 15-minute water bus ride. The area is surrounded by restaurants, cafés, and shops, making everything accessible on foot.

The apartment has one bedroom with a comfortable double bed and a separate living space with a sofa bed that can accommodate two additional guests, ideal for a small family or group. The two areas are not separated by a door, so the apartment functions as an open-plan layout. The kitchen is fully equipped with a stovetop, refrigerator, microwave, tea and coffee maker, and all cookware and utensils. A washing machine is available (drying clothes may require some planning due to humidity). The air conditioning is quiet and effective, providing a cool retreat during warm weather. The bathroom has a walk-in shower, bidet, and free toiletries. Plenty of storage space is available, and the decor is modern and clean.

The kitchenette includes a stove, fridge, microwave, and all necessary cookware, making it easy to prepare meals. A Coop supermarket is a 5-minute walk away for groceries. For eating out, Trattoria Al Gazzettino (0.5 km), Ristorante Piccolo Martini (0.5 km), Il Calice (0.5 km), and Osteria Da Carla (0.5 km) are among the many nearby options. Bar Chiaranda and Bistrot de Venise are both 0.5 km away for quick bites or drinks. The kitchen is well-stocked enough for a comfortable 2-3 day stay.

The property does not offer a pool, spa, gym, or garden. However, the apartment's location behind St. Mark's Square places you within walking distance of galleries, historic sites, and the canal network for boating trips. A barber/beauty shop and a minimarket are on site or nearby.

Internet access is included, though limited to Wi-Fi. Pets are allowed, subject to an applicable charge. The host, Stefano, communicates via WhatsApp and provides detailed directions and a self-check-in procedure, which has been consistently described as easy and helpful. There is no on-site reception, but an invoice can be provided. Luggage storage is available at a locker facility about 50 metres from the apartment, which is useful for exploring on the day of departure after check-out at 11:00. The apartment is non-smoking throughout and has heating, air conditioning, and a private entrance.
