Description
Ca’ Delle Vele
Presenting you the keys to this 2-bedroomed Dorsoduro beauty… magically placed near the domes of Salute!
Mid-century modern in mood and giving onto the Rio Terà dei Saloni – a wonderfully evocative and peaceful tree-lined avenue linking the breathtaking Zattere waterfront to the glittering Grand Canal – apartment Ca’ Delle Vele sleeps 4 guests in a characterful setting of rough-hewn timbers, oak flooring and velvety Marmorino walls.
West facing and bright – particularly in the afternoon and early evening – and providing comfort and style in abundance and equal measure, this 1st floor apartment offers air-conditioning** and Wi-Fi plus a relaxed and homely ambience promising maximum holiday pleasure!
Situated in an area historically famous for the salt warehouses once found here and within a stone’s throw of the Peggy Guggenheim Collection, the Fondazione Emilio e Annabianca Vedova, the Punta Della Dogana Center of Contemporary Art and the ‘traghetto’ gondola ferry crossing the Grand Canal to the San Marco sestiere, Ca’ Delle Vele’s accommodation comprises:
A communal entrance on the ground floor with stairs rising to the
1st Floor – private door into:
• A cosy, welcoming and softly lit sitting room picked out in tasteful teal-blues and furnished with a large L-shaped sofa set beneath a wall print of the ‘Chiesa della Salute Venezia’ by Gaspare Vanvitelli (1653–1736) and a splendidly detailed tapestry giving warmth to the room, and featuring 3 tall French windows opening onto a long balcony with window boxes overlooking the delightfully tranquil Rio Terà dei Saloni* and the little 15th-century Gothic palazzo opposite, with the Zattere waterfront and the Giudecca Canal just visible at its southern end!
• A modern, streamlined and well-equipped kitchen / dining room to the side with a dining suite seating 6
• 2 attractively presented double bedrooms of approximately similar size and style – one in a cool eau-de-nil to the front and the other in a warm buttery yellow to the rear and¬ both with built-in wardrobes and double beds which can be made into singles upon request
And completing Ca’ Delle Vele’s well-planned accommodation:
• 2 separate bathrooms with contemporary-style fittings – one with a bathtub and hand-held shower and the other with a shower
* A canal filled in many years ago to create a paved street
OUR COMMENT
A charming place to call home in an idyllic location where time seems to stand still, generation after generation…
A very short stroll via the wide Rio Terà dei Catecumeni to the magnificent votive Church of Santa Maria Della Salute and its breathtaking views over to the Campanile at San Marco… and peacefully positioned (except during the ‘Festa Della Salute’ which takes place on 21 November each year *** – please see below!)
Within steps of the popular little coffee shop / takeaway known as 60/40 – perfect for a morning cappuccino and pastry, a freshly squeezed juice, filled roll or a refreshing gelato or 3! (NB: only a small handful of bar stools available) – and within a short walk of the Accademia Galleries and Bridge (and the VOV office!), the Palazzo Cini Gallery and a variety of fine eating places and bars including Linea D’Ombra, Ai Gondolieri and Ristorante Riviera for fine dining and Corner Pub, Osteria Al Squero and Cantinone Gia Schiavi for panini / cicheti and spritz.
A scenic waterside stroll to the Conad supermarket at the western end of the Zattere and within easy reach of 4 vaporetto (water bus) stops – Zattere Spirito Santo, Zattere, Salute and Accademia – for travel around the city (note that St. Mark’s Square can be reached by vaporetto from Salute in under 5 minutes on Line 1!)
Also moments to the ‘traghetto’ at Calle Lanza / Calle del Traghetto S. Gregorio which, during operating hours, ferries passengers by gondola across the Grand Canal to the stand beside the Gritti Palace Hotel in the district of San Marco, and within easy reach of the Alilaguna boat stop connecting the Zattere to Venice's Marco Polo Airport.
*** One of the most moving and best loved of all Venetian events. Every year on the 21 November, Venetians make a pilgrimage to the plague church of Santa Maria Della Salute (St. Mary of Health) to pray to the Virgin Mary and to light candles, while gondoliers visit bringing their oars to be blessed. A pontoon bridge is built across the Grand Canal from Santa Maria Del Giglio over to the Salute and the huge doors of the church are opened to the city and its visitors, while the area close to Salute is busy with stalls selling candles, balloons and all manner of sweet temptations!
**Please note that the operation of air conditioning and heating are subjected to the municipality regulation. Generally, the heating works from middle of October to middle of April, while air conditioning works between middle of Aprile to middle of October. Please contact us for further information.

The team at VoV were incredibly helpful and user-friendly. Marco checked us in and Enrica looked after us from then on both were very efficient and friendly - Enrica helped us through a tricky flight delay/cancellation (Heathrow airport in the UK was shut, due to a fire, the day before we were due to fly home). She reassured us that we could return to the apartment if we were stranded, which was an immense comfort. Before the airport drama, we had a wonderful 4 night break in a really gorgeous part of Venice. The apartment is delightful: sunny, comfortable and spotlessly clean. We hadn’t stayed in Dorsoduro before, but now would prefer to stay here rather than anywhere else in beautiful Venezia! We very much hope to return and will definitely book through Views on Venice. Well done to the team - great service from a fantastically well-run agency.

The apartment is spacious and would be comfortable for a number of guests. The sun streamed into the living room which is vital for me. The decor was very calm and tasteful, a bit Danish modern. There were feather comforters which gave the apartment extra luxury. The kitchen and bathroom fixtures are new and worked!

The couch offered very little support and light for reading was a challenge. This is not unusual in Italian, rental apartments.

Great Design in a Lovely location with wonderful service.
Lovely sun filled Living room with floor to ceiling French Doors to a standing balcony overlooking the tree lined Río Terra. Don’t miss the charming corner view from the Guest bedroom. The bed is very comfortable and so is the sofa. The rooms are well proportioned for the size of the apartment. I would have loved to book it more, but others obviously already discovered this gem of an apartment. |

An ancient canal-side palace within minutes of St. Mark’s Square. Hidden away on its landside within the secret courtyard ‘Corte Rubbi’, on the Castello/San Marco border, this once forgotten building has been magically transformed by restorers with vision and interior design savoir-faire. Standing at the gondola-busy T-junction of the San Zulian and Bareteri canals, and encapsulating 10 dazzling apartments of varying colourway and size, the newly launched Corte Rubbi is but a stroll to some of Venice’s most iconic attractions and countless beguiling vistas on which to feast your eyes! Easy to find (when you know the way!) from the shop-lined Campo San Bartolomeo and Salizada San Lio on one of Venice’s canal-encircled ‘islands within an island’, these imaginatively furnished apartments offer Wi-Fi and a communal laundry room and are spread across 4 floors with all upper floors reached by stairs. Highly contemporary in style, air-conditioned** throughout and ranging from a charming studio for 4 to a fabulous penthouse with rooftop terrace, Corte Rubbi’s 10 apartments sleep up to 42 guests if booked exclusively and include: Corte Rubbi 5 – on the 2nd Floor reached by stairs – sleeping 2+1 A beautifully attired bijou studio enjoying canal views from its 2 windows to the fore and comprising: A charming main living / dining / sleeping area in fashionably clashing shades of flamingo pink and scarlet with Venetian terrazzo flooring, wooden beamed ceiling, a double bed with twin bunk beds to the rear, a well-equipped kitchenette for light cooking, and a dining area seating 4 A luxurious bathroom to the side with marble walls and chromotherapy shower Are you part of a larger group who’d like to stay close together but in separate apartments? We offer 9 other apartments within this palazzo: Corte Rubbi 1, Corte Rubbi 3, Corte Rubbi 6, Corte Rubbi 8, Corte Rubbi 9, Corte Rubbi 10, Corte Rubbi 11 and Corte Rubbi 5514 OUR COMMENT A bijou studio for 4 bursting with colour and joie de vivre, in a vibrant, central and endlessly fascinating part of town. A few steps away from the 18th-century church of Santa Maria Della Fava and close to a host of famous sights and attractions including the atmospheric Venetian time-capsule that is the Querini Stampalia, the fabulous Palazzo Grimani just off Campo Santa Maria Formosa, the Church of San Zaccaria with its crypt and wonderful Bellini altarpiece, and Vivaldi’s La Pietà on the sunny Riva degli Schiavoni waterfront… … A short stroll towards a very sedate pace of life lived out amongst the tranquil calles, canals and green spaces of Castello with its laid-back and very genuine neighbourhood vibe… … Or rise with the lark to embrace the atmosphere of St. Mark’s Square (‘the Piazza’) gloriously near-empty before its visitors arrive… or visit at night when the orchestras of Quadri and Florian play*, the bells of the Campanile (bell tower) toll, the marble of the Doge’s Palace glows, and the mosaics of the Basilica shimmer in the darkness… Close to a host of shops, restaurants and bars including the much-lauded Alle Testiere, the upmarket Bistrot de Venise and Alle Corone of the nearby Hotel Reali, the charming Osteria Al Portego (delicious cicheti!) and Osteria Ae Sconte, plus Ristorante Santa Maria Formosa with its tables on the campo. Also within easy reach of 4 well-stocked supermarkets – a Despar at Calle al Ponte de la Guerra, a COOP at Salizada San Lio, and a COOP and a Despar on the Riva del Carbon (near the Rialto Bridge), along with a ‘Vino Sfuso’ (wine on tap) shop on Calle del Mondo Novo and a greengrocer’s stand at Campo Santa Maria Formosa. Within a short stroll of the vaporetto (water bus) stop at Rialto for exploring the city, the ‘Traghetto’ gondola ferry carrying passengers across the Grand Canal between the Riva Del Carbon and San Silvestro in the San Polo district and the vaporetto (water bus) stop at San Zaccaria for trips around town, visits to the Lido beaches and to the Biennale Pavilions at Arsenale and Giardini. *Note that performances are dependent on weather and season **Please note that the operation of air conditioning and heating are subjected to the municipality regulation. Generally, the heating works from middle of October to middle of April, while air conditioning works between middle of Aprile to middle of October.
