Description
Along a hidden little alley with a courtyard at its fore,
Sits a quaint Venetian ‘casetta’ with an apartment on each floor!
-
As ‘cute as pie’, new to our roster, and recently revamped in anticipation of your stay, the sleeps 6 (+3) Lo Squero comprises 3 entirely separate apartments** offering comfort, a top location and quiet elegance all the way.
Situated on a peaceful Dorsoduro calle leading to the narrow Rio de Toresele canal where once there stood a squero (boatyard) many, many moons ago, each charming Lo Squero apartment promises a perfect base in Venice for couples, solo travellers and groups of up to 9 when booked as a whole.
‘Hidden in plain sight’ just moments from Campo San Vio**, the Peggy Guggenheim Collection and the dazzling Zattere promenade, and boasting Wi-Fi connection and a washing machine in each, the fully air-conditioned apartments are spread over 3 floors of the property (one per level) and include:
Lo Squero 1 – Ground Floor
Lo Squero 1 Secret Courtyard Apartment in Dorsoduro
Accessed via its own private doorway on the delightful ‘Corte Nostra’ at the front of the house, this utterly delicious little apartment sleeps 2 (+1) and comprises:
Shared with neighbouring properties – a picture-perfect and romantic typically Venetian hidden courtyard, filled with a plethora of potted plants including flowering oleander and sago palm, and furnished with Lo Squero 1’s own garden table and chairs for enjoying a Campari spritz in the sun or shade
A bijou and very pretty ‘Positano-meets-Venezia–style’ open-plan main living room looking onto the courtyard and comprising a sitting area with a single sofa bed and a dining area/well-equipped kitchen complete with full oven and table for 4
A bright and beautiful master bedroom lovingly presented in seaside colours, with a double bed, an ancient fireplace (no longer in use) plus walls attractively adorned with a collection of seashells and wood-carvings
And completing Lo Squero 1’s single level accommodation:
A simple tiled bathroom with shower
* Are you part of a larger group who’d like to stay close to each other but in separate apartments? We offer 2 other units in this characterful Venetian casetta (little house): Lo Squero 2 (on the 1st Floor) and Lo Squero 3 (on the 2nd Floor)
** A location featured prominently in David Lean’s iconic film ‘Summertime’ starring Katherine Hepburn, and home to St. George’s Anglican Church in Venice (as well as a manned gondola stand for exploring the canals!)
OUR COMMENT
A Venetian casetta that’s sure to make you smile, just tucked away on Dorsoduro’s ‘Museum Mile’…
A short amble to the iconic Church of the Salute, the Accademia Galleries and Bridge (and the VOV office!), the Palazzo Cini Gallery, plus the Punta Della Dogana Center of Contemporary Art, and close to a variety of fine eating places and bars including Ai Gondolieri and Ristorante Riviera for fine dining, and Corner Pub, Osteria Al Squero and Cantinone Gia Schiavi for cicheti and spritz.
An easy waterside stroll to 2 Conad supermarkets – one at the western end of the Zattere and a smaller one closer to home at Zattere Spirito Santo – and 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!)
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, and within easy reach of the Alilaguna boat stop connecting the Zattere to Venice's Marco Polo Airport.

Dorsoduro on the ground floor

The location was excellent for me. The apartment is on a very quiet calle so no issues with late night or early morning noise. The small courtyard is shared with the residents whose homes also open onto the space. Not an issue just an fyi.

We have been fortunate enough to visit Venice on a number of occasions and have used ViewsonVenice every time. The apartments are always exactly as portrayed. Lo Squero 1 The Secret Courtyard is a little gem, ideal for a couple, very quiet location but close to all the sites, with a full range of facilities and a nice amount of space. Annalisa and her team couldn't have been more helpful, booking water taxis, welcoming us to the apartment and allowing us to adjust over checkout time. We hope to visit again.

Cosy, warm hideaway

The apartment was nicely heated and warm in all rooms, which is not always easy to find in Venice.

Lo Squero 1 The Secret Courtyard in Dorsoduro
A guest

This is a gem of a place, beautifully renovated, down a small alleyway - very quiet. There is a small courtyard out front to sit outside. The apartment is very stylish, lots if nice details.
