Description
‘And silent rows the songless gondolier’ – Lord Byron
And awaiting your arrival… the sublime ‘Gondolieri’
Ushering in one of VOV’s most ambitious and successful restorations to date and raising the quality of our portfolio to unprecedented heights, we proudly embrace new apartment ‘Gondolieri’ and needless to say we’re delighted with our new recruit!
Perfectly placed for lovers of the ‘real Venice’ between Dorsoduro’s Guggenheim Collection and the waters of the Zattere promenade, this super-chic apartment with its sun-kissed southern aspect sleeps 6 guests in accommodation arranged over 2 floors.
A sumptuous retreat for hanging loose with your companions and a place where precious ‘me-time’ can come top of your list, Gondolieri’s deluxe interior is the last word in refinement and has every creature comfort ready and waiting to be enjoyed.
Moorish in design yet Venetian in spirit, and entered by way of its own private doorway on the sleepy little ‘Calle Navaro’ in the dreamily sedate district known as ‘Incurabili’, this pretty Venetian ‘casa’ is the culmination of the link-up between ace architects ArchFlorence and the team at VOV.
Fittings and furnishings are truly exquisite and will resonate with guests who are only used to the very best – from plush designer textiles, superb hand-crafted finishes and wonderful lighting in all the right places, to pristine new bathrooms, all mod cons in the kitchen and beds carefully chosen to promise a blissful night’s sleep – and all of this crowned with a very special ‘altana’ terrace offering views across rooftops to the Campanile at St. Mark’s.
Tasteful, original and flooded with light, this remarkable new property offers Wi-Fi and air-conditioning* throughout, and comprises
An independent entrance and vestibule hallway on the ground floor with a staircase rising up to the apartment’s
First floor and home to:
A bright and beautiful sitting room with elegant eau-de-nil ‘Venetian Marmorino’ polished plaster walls, ample seating, and whitewashed beams paired with whitewashed timber flooring
A dining area just to the side seating up to 6 guests in stylishly upholstered chairs around a circular dining table beside a feature wall decorated in Cole & Son’s ‘Palm’ wall-covering
A well-equipped and custom-built fully fitted kitchen in a bespoke teal green with travertine worktops and a Miele oven and fridge
An exceptionally stylish beamed master bedroom resplendent in smart Tapet-Cafe ‘Deco Fan’ wallpaper and fabric, and with a double bed, a mirrored wardrobe, and its own bathroom with Bisazza mosaic, bathtub and shower over
A sweet and very charming 2nd bedroom in a powder-blue reminiscent of the hues of the Moroccan village of Chefchaouen near Tangier and furnished with a French size (small double) bed, a mirror-and-fretwork-fronted wardrobe, & with an en-suite bathroom in mocha Marmorino with a shower encased in lapis and clay colour Moroccan-themed tiling
A staircase with an attractive (and original) wrought-iron wooden-topped balustrade rising to the
Second floor where you’ll find:
Decorated on a boating theme - a further spacious sitting / TV room beneath the eaves with a writing desk / study area and a super-large and comfortable double sofa-bed in smart herringbone upholstery
Gondolieri’s 3rd bedroom in a cheery tangerine orange with a well-dressed double bed (which can be split into twins upon your request) and a pair of fabric-lined wardrobes resting beneath ancient burnished timbers
A further bathroom in blue Marmorino with bathtub and separate shower reached via a quaint little ‘bridge’ with balustrade crossing over the stairway below
A few steps rising to the rooftop and to -
The superb restored ‘altana’ terrace – fully furnished for relaxing after long walks about town and enjoying a glass of chilled Prosecco in the sun…
Are you part of a larger group who would like to stay close together but in separate apartments? We offer another apartment in this building: La Baruffa (with its own private garden!)
OUR COMMENT
A Venetian Golden Oldie becomes the Hip Kid in Town!
A wonderful new apartment (even though we say so ourselves ;), meticulously restored to provide the most pleasurable combination of luxury and charm possible, and featuring fittings and furnishings carefully selected, designed and made to measure to make the surroundings and ambience as bright, cheerful (and as enjoyable!) as can be.
A short amble to the iconic Church of the Salute and to the Punta Della Dogana Center of Contemporary Art at Dorsoduro’s eastern tip, and close to a fine variety of eating places and bars including Ai Gondolieri and Ristorante Rivierafor fine dining, and Osteria Al Squero and Cantinone Gia Schiavi for cicheti and spritz.
An easy waterside stroll to the Conad supermarket at the western end of the Zattere, to 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!), and also close 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 district of San Marco.
Also within easy reach of the Alilaguna boat stop connecting the Zattere to Venice's Marco Polo Airport.
*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.
For arrivals between 8.00 p.m. and midnight there is an additional cost for "late arrival" of Euro 50, to be paid in cash upon arrival. We organize arrivals between midnight and one o'clock with an additional cost of Euro 100, after this time we reserve the right to accept the customer always with a supplement to be quantified according to the time of arrival.

Loved the beauty of the fabrics used throughout the apartment. The rooftop or “Altana” was a wonderful way to relax at the end of the day . The location feels quiet and authentic.

Behind the inconspicuous door already the iluminated staircase gives a first impression about an in every way tastful and luxury apartment. Floors, walls and furnishings, everything fits. You'll find a tranquil oasis in an extraordinary town.

The Apartment was still being cleansed - so we went straight out - it would of being nice to arrive at the Apartment when it was all cleaned. But I totally understand it was early afternoon when we arrived. Venice Views made our stay in Venice excellent. Marta was very helpful with recommendation on Restaurants - etc. she was excellent. I look forward to our next visit to Venice and I will definitely book with Venice Views./, Kind regards.

We had a great experience with Marta and Views on Venice. Loved the apartment - it was perfect for 3 couples, beautifully decorated and maintained. Everything about it was great. Marta was very helpful, from arranging the beautiful flowers and champagne, to organizing a Murano expedition for my sister and brother-in-law. We also had recommended VoV to friends who joined us in Venice, and they were equally happy. You will remain our go-to source for great Venice apartments. Thank you so much!

Gondolieri is a truly wonderful apartment, beautifully decorated with all amenities you could wish for. My only negative comment is that the entrance is via a long flight of stairs, from ground level to the second floor (third floor for Americans). That proved a problem for me, but I cannot say enough good things about Views on Venice's assistance in relocating us. They made the process very smooth. We have already booked with them for our next Venice vacation.

We were a party of five and we spent a fabulous Christmas and New Year at the Gondolieri apartment. This apartment has been recently renovated to a very high standard with a great deal of thought to make it comfortable and easy to live in. It is stylishly decorated, good sized bedrooms and bathrooms and a very well equipped kitchen with Miele appliances. The lounge and dining room were well designed with plenty of room for us all. And importantly in the winter the heating was incredibly efficient making it very cosy. The apartment is in a very quiet part of Dorsodouro and one feels that this is the real Venice. The only sound was that of the church bells. The apartment is within minutes of the Accademia bridge, vaporetto stops and an easy walk to a well stocked supermarket. Location is fantastic. This was a home from home and a wonderful apartment to spend a family Christmas and New Year. Equally it will be lovely in the summer with a terrace overlooking the rooftops where we celebrated Christmas with a bottle of Prosecco on a sunny Christmas morning!

Created with a generous serving of Venetian verve and va-va-voom, we proudly present apartment Ca’ Della Luce. Peacefully positioned in the refined, palazzo-packed parish of San Samuele close to the Grand Canal in the district of San Marco, and flooded with light as befits its name along with an elegance that reveals its owners’ taste and designer’s talents, the apartment sleeps 6 within the top 2 floors of the property reached by stairs. Crowned with a furnished ‘altana’ roof terrace * all of your own enjoying exceptional vistas across the surrounding terracotta rooftops to some of Venice’s most iconic landmarks including the domes of Salute and St. Mark’s Campanile, Ca’ Della Luce offers the convenience and comfort of Wi-Fi and air-conditioning throughout while an interplay of choice linens and velvet, Farrow & Ball wallpapers, custom-built furnishings and well-chosen upholstery breathes life into its traditional framework. Following hot on the heels of our popular Ca’ Dell’ Opera, accommodation commences on the 3rd floor and comprises: - A spacious sitting/dining room dressed in a cool and classic palette of muted neutrals brightened by splashes of teal and Tiffany blue against a backdrop of white painted beams and burnished wooden parquet. - A small up-to-date and well-equipped kitchen to the side with dappled grey marble work surfaces and Miele oven. - Two delightful bedrooms – the master in Farrow & Ball’s ‘Lotus’ Damask print with double bed and a twin decked out in Farrow & Ball’s ‘Tessella’ with 2 singles. - A contemporary-style bathroom decorated entirely in Italian mosaic with bathtub and hand held shower. Stairs rising to the 4th floor: - A characterful studio doubling up as an additional 3rd bedroom with double bed, its own en-suite bathroom with shower (again in mosaic), plus steps giving rise to the… Furnished ‘altana’ roof terrace * – a magical place for whiling away your downtime and soaking up the atmosphere of this most special of towns. Important: please note that the apartment only accepts fully supervised children over 6 years of age or under 1 year (non-walking babies) because of the internal stairs, ‘altana’ rooftop terrace. OUR COMMENT A comfortable and light-filled beacon of style with a fabulous ‘altana’ in San Samuele. Rubbing shoulders with some of the city’s most coveted residential addresses and ideally placed for the first time or regular visitor to Venice who appreciates peaceful surroundings yet who’d like to stay close to many of Venice’s star attractions. Within a stone’s throw of the Palazzo Grassi Museum of Modern Art, and within moments of several osterie, the outdoor cafes of Campo Santo Stefano, a wine shop, a local grocery/delicatessen, plus a well-stocked Punto supermarket just a little further on. Seconds to the area’s antique shops and galleries including that of interior designer Chiarastella Cattana - a discreetly sophisticated showroom of fine and distinctively woven textiles and furnishings and, for scent-lovers, the Venice outlet of the famous Florentine ‘Officina Profumo Farmaceutica di Santa Maria Novella’ - one of the oldest pharmacies in the world and one time fragrance maker to Catherine de’ Medici. Also close to two vaporetto (water bus) stops - San Samuele and Sant’ Angelo - for foot-friendly exploration of the city, and moments to the local ‘traghetto’ at Garzoni which, during operating times, ferries passengers by gondola across the Grand Canal to San Toma in the district of San Polo. * Please be aware that the ‘altana’ is only accessible via the studio/3rd bedroom ** Are you a part of a larger group who’d like to stay close together but in separate apartments? We offer several apartments in very close proximity: Ca’ Grassi 1, Ca’ Grassi 2, Ca’ Grassi 3, Ca’ Del Teatro, Ca’ Dei Colori 1 and Ca’ Dei Colori 2 For arrivals between 8.00 p.m. and midnight there is an additional cost for "late arrival" of Euro 50, to be paid in cash upon arrival. We organize arrivals between midnight and one o'clock with an additional cost of Euro 100, after this time we reserve the right to accept the customer always with a supplement to be quantified according to the time of arrival.23 reviews

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 8 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!

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.
