Very good location; spacious apartment. Owner very friendly and helpful; she met us off the waterbus and escorted us to the apartment. Apartment is spacious and has virtually everything you could wish for. My only criticisms were; bedding not really very satisfactory; there was no duvet cover, just a sheet to use under the duvet, which I felt was not very hygienic, and although there is a bathtub, this was very small and totally unusable by an adult. Obviously, this was not a problem as the shower was perfectly adequate. As mentioned, apartment was in a good central location, although not the most peaceful area, especially when the cruise ships arrive for the day! Some people may prefer to choose a quieter location, especially if this is not their first visit to the city.

Martina greeted us at the boat landing about 200 metres from the apartment. She showed us to the property and spent time introducing us to Venice - our first visit. The apartment itself is very well appointed, very clean and very comfortable. It even comes with serenading gondoliers on the canal outside the window. The location is great being about 5 mins walk from St Marks Square. The best recommendation we can give is that if (no - when!) we return to Venice we will be staying in Martina's excellent apartment.

We had the most delightful stay at Ca del Giglio. Upon exiting our water taxi, the owner's assistant met us and escorted us to our apartment which was less than a block away. The apartment was well equipped and spacious. We were located less than a five minute walk from St. Mark's square and the Academy. There were many restaurants and gelato shops nearby. But for me the best part of our stay at Ca del Giglio was that it overlooked a canal where the gondolas passed by. We were serenaded all afternoon. I can still hear their beautiful voices. I highly recommend staying at Ca del Giglio and plan to do so again the next time we are in Venice.

We had a great experience at Ca del Giglio. Martina met us at once we arrived from the airport at the St Maria de Giglio water bus stop and showed us to the apartment which was less than a five minute walk. She pointed out key highlights and restaurants in Venice and welcomed us with a bottle of prosecco.
The apartment is very central, well furnished and is situated on the first floor . It is close to restaurants, supermarket and major attractions. The kitchen is fully equipment with all the amenities.
There is a new dual washer/dryer in the bathroom, which was a great help to clean our clothes while travelling.
The gondaliers pass by below the window ledge with singers and music which was lovely.
If I had to make one recommendation for improvement, it would be that the mattress is a little old and the bed frame is quite low compared to our bed at home. But the bed is comfortable.
We had a great stay and would recommend it to others.

We stayed here for 3 nights for our 3rd anniversary. Before we arrived, Martina was very quick to respond to any questions that I had.
Once we'd arrived in Venice, Martina had then met us at the Alilaguna stop at Giglio, and showed us the way to the apartment, which was just a short distance. Once we had arrived, we were very pleased with what we were presented with. A very comfortable and homely apartment, that I feel most would be pleased with.
Martina had surprised as with a bottle of Prosecco and some Biscotti to welcome and congratulate us. She was very informative and gave us some very useful locations to help make a trip comfortable. I had told her that we were planning to visit the theatre, so she had kindly printed out a programme from the teatra la fenice website, which was just a few minutes away from the apartment.
There were several very helpful additions to the service that we were provided with, that made our stay all the more memorable
I would recommend staying here to anyone looking for somewhere that is exceptional value and in a prime location in one of the most beautiful cities the world has to offer. I look forward to visiting again soon.
We were met at the water bus stop by the owner's son. Apartment was just perfect for our needs.Within walking distance of San Marco but away from all the crowds. A highlight had to be the many gondolas that passed by our windows ! Apartment clean ,tidy and well equipped. The water bus stop was approximately 5 mins walk away.Was able to take the water bus straight from the airport to this stop too.
