General Info |
|
| |
We chose our new apartment at Giudecca Mare (built on the site of an old Gondola boat yard) so that we would be able to step away from the hustle & bustle of Venice whilst remaining close to all the sites & atmosphere of the city. Experience the glorious art architecture & historical sites whilst soaking up the ambience that is uniquely Venice. Celebrate a special occasion in true style… or simply enjoy a break in this luxury private apartment. Once inside, the apartment maximises the spectacular views of San Clemente Island. The apartment is equipped with under floor heating throughout & air conditioning which can be used on request. It has marble floors throughout, except the bedroom which has ash wooden boards and security shutters allowing for maximum privacy & security. |

Details on the area surrounding the property/accommodation |
|
| |
Giudecca is only a short vaporetto ride from San Marco. In the 18th century it was favoured by the Venetian nobles as a summer retreat, known as Venice’s “garden of delights”, some of these gardens still exist today.There were noble residences; ( Palazzo Vendramin, Palazzo Dandolo) and more modest dwellings called “casini”, convents (such as Zitelle and le Convertite), academies (such as the ”Convito dei Nobili” for philosophy), parks, orchards and vineyards. There are many interesting & famous sites on the Giudecca, among which is the 16th Century “Palladio's Church of Redentore”. Nowaday's Giudecca has its own local gems including; the Church of the Redentore, the Cipriani Hotel, Harry's Dolce Restaurant, a wonderful working boat yard and marina & a newly renovated Molino Stucky Hilton Hotel. Rialto Market cannot be underestimated as an exciting place to visit for its atmosphere and vibrancy let alone its food! |

Shops are usually open from 09:00am – 12:30pm and 16:00 – 19:30. There are many small & useful shops within 5 minutes walk. At the end of Calle Michelangelo there is a bakery, small grocers, ice cream & sweets shop, stationery & newsagents, a greengrocers and wine shop!

The location is great being so close close to the centre yet so quiet and secluded and the views are magnificent. We would both like to stay there again sometime. Thank you for all your help.
