Ca' Grassi 3 Venetian Terrace Venice - Apartment

Ca’ Del Monastero 7

Introducing the very special Ca’ Del Monastero - a fine antique residence comprising 8 superbly restored apartments of varying size (including Ca’ Del Monastero 7 - see its dedicated section below) situated in what was once the monastery connected to the ancient Church of San Zan Degolà (one of the oldest in Venice), moments from the Grand Canal in the district of Santa Croce.

Enjoying an atmosphere of calm serenity in what must surely be one of Venice’s most evocative and unspoilt neighbourhoods - indeed a step back in time - the Ca’ Del Monastero apartments offer spacious and beautifully presented accommodation for small and medium size parties or up to 34 guests if taken together.*

No expense has been spared in its recent remodelling

Carefully co-ordinated contemporary furnishings and soft neutral colours meld seamlessly against a traditional backdrop of polished red marble and/or traditional Venetian terrazzo flooring, while stylish high-spec fittings and attractive finishes, such as textured resin walls and luxurious feature wall coverings, give a fresh and fashionable twist to the building’s ancient framework.

Enhanced by a range of up-to-date facilities as demanded by today’s savvy traveller (including air-conditioning**, Wi-Fi internet connection and communal utility facilities), the Ca’ Del Monastero apartments are perfectly placed for communing with the true and heart and soul of the city and for visiting all that Venice has to offer while providing all the comforts of modern city living.


Ca’ Del Monastero 7

Rest easy beneath the rafters of this wooden beamed beauty, with your very own ‘altana’ roof terrace perched up on high.

Situated on the 3rd floor at the top of the residence and reached by lift to the 2nd floor and then taking one flight of stairs, this new ‘sleeps 2’ apartment comprises a hugely characterful main room dominated by a spectacular sloping beamed ceiling** and incorporating all the main living/sleeping areas of the apartment in one!

At the heart of the apartment lies a comfy main sitting/TV area, while to the side sits a modern and well-equipped kitchen with all mod cons and a dining area seating 4 lit by adjacent side/roof lights.

To the rear sits Ca’ Monastero 7’s up-to-date bathroom with bathtub and separate shower cubicle and, cleverly concealed behind semi-open*** dividing walls to the centre/rear of the apartment, the elegant master bedroom with double bed, wall sconces and luxury finishes, plus a doorway opening onto stairs leading to the ‘altana’ rooftop terrace - a splendid outside space with contemporary style furniture offering fabulous bird’s-eye views towards the dome and bell tower of San Geremia, the turret of the Fondaco Dei Turchi (Venice’s Natural History Museum), and the campanile of San Zan Degolà much closer to home.

Our Comment

Style, creature comforts and history combined, in an area brimming with local flavour.

Within easy walking distance of Venice’s Santa Lucia Railway Station and Piazzale Roma if travelling light, and even closer to the vaporetto (waterbus) stops at Riva di Biasio and San Stae on the Grand Canal for hassle-free travel around the city.


And so much to see and do right on your doorstep… 


Moments to Campo San Giacomo Dell’ Orio - one of Venice’s most charming ‘away from the crowds’ tree-filled squares and home to a well-stocked Coop supermarket and nearby local shops - and a short walk to a Conad supermarket on the Rio Marin canal.

Close to a great variety of cafes, bars and eateries including All’ Anfora, La Zucca, Il Refolo, Al Prosecco and Antica Besseta to name but a few, and within minutes of the Ca’ Pesaro International Gallery of Modern Art, Palazzo Mocenigo at San Stae (Museum of the History of Fabrics, Costumes and Perfumes) and the Fondazione Prada at Ca’ Corner Della Regina. 


A leisurely stroll to the 14th Century Franciscan Church of the Frari, (home to Canova's extraordinary triangular marble tomb and Titian's legendary masterpiece, the 'Assumption'), the Scuola Grande di San Rocco with its amazing Tintoretto’s, the vast palazzo-lined Campo San Polo plus the culinary delights and buzz of the Rialto

A fabulous apartment offering one of the most spectacular panoramic views in the whole of Venice.


Located on the peaceful and laid-back island of Giudecca (where Sir Elton John also has a home!) and directly across the Giudecca Canal from the Dorsoduro district, this chic and sunny property is on the third and top floor and combines comfort and style with an enviable position right next to Palladio’s Church of the Redentore.


It has a tastefully decorated living room and dining area with full length windows opening directly onto the terrace (which itself runs the entire length of the apartment and is furnished for dining ‘al fresco’), one double bedroom, a fully fitted kitchen and a bathroom with bathtub and shower.


A staircase leads to the extraordinary wooden ‘altana’ (roof terrace) which, along with the downstairs terrace, offers uninterrupted bird’s-eye views over the Giudecca Canal towards St. Mark’s, Dorsoduro and the domes of Santa Maria Della Salute - perfect for sunbathing, relaxing with a glass and a book or simply taking in the panorama as the boats sail by.


And while you’d be forgiven for wanting to spend the whole of your holiday in a state of complete relaxation at the apartment, it’s great to know that you’re only three minutes by boat to Dorsoduro and five to St.Mark’s for sampling the very best in culture and ‘retail therapy’ that Venice has to offer – indeed the best of both worlds!


Once well-known for its palazzi with gardens and now for its authentic and true ‘Venetian’ feel, Giudecca boasts a number of restaurants ranging from the beautiful canopied terrace of ‘Harry’s Dolci’ and the sophisticated restaurants of the Hotel Cipriani, to those offering simpler and more modest dining and prices to match. Or if you’d prefer to opt for a romantic dinner ‘at home’ under the stars, then stock up on groceries at one of Giudecca’s small stores, the local COOP supermarket (just a short stroll away near the vaporetto stop at ‘Palanca’) or the Prix near the Redentore even closer to home.
