Beautiful Gaffaro Apartment in Dorsoduro with Canal View is the perfect short term rental. Great location, quite, safe, clean, comfortable, reasonable distance to the train and water bus. Sebastiano is an awesome host that took the time to answer all our questions about where to eat, shop and how to navigate the water bus. We definitely would stay here again.

Superb Family Vacation to Venice

The residence is very large and superbly located adjacent to 2 converging canals. Being on the 3rd floor you have breathtaking views and can truly embrace "life" in Vencie. Sebastiano provided fantastic information about traveling and things to do in Venice. Full size kitchen so you can cook if you so desire. Conventiently located from the train station it's about a 9 minute walk. We have memories of a lifetime Highly recommend!

Great apartment with beautiful view of canal. A short 10 minute walk from the train station, so you can avoid the craziness of the water bus with luggage. Sebastian met us as we arrived at the apartment. He was kind enough to give us some travel tips. The apartment has everything you need. We were able to wash our clothes after a week of traveling. The km0 restaurant after the bridge was very good. We would stay there again.

This is a very nice spacious apartment with beautiful views of the canals. Close to bus, train station, many good restaurants, and stores. Sebastiano was an amazing host that communicated well and gave great recommendations on how to navigate Venice. Major plus was washer and drying rack, central air, and great views.

Sebastiano was an incredible host. His apartment was very generously stocked with anything you could ever need. He took his time to answer every question and helped navigate us to grocery stores and any trip we had planned. We were able to do laundry and get all we needed. It’s very close to the vapretto. Sometimes line 1 wasn’t working and you would need to take like 2 with all the other tourists. Please note to take the correct bridge over after the large green bridge. The first bridge after that has a ramp. We regrettably missed that and took the extra stairs. Sebastiano has to rescue us with our luggage and was very generous to help carry our load to the apartment. His apt was a lovely haven to the crest city of Venezia. Thank you for a lovely stay. We hope to see you again.

Farewell to Venice

Apartamento Gafaro was the ideal spot for my final visit and my friends’introduction to many of the delights. She will certainly return.We loved the views to the canals from the 3 living room and kitchen windows, watching the constant pedestrian and water activities. Being so close to Piazzoli Roma made transport easy to wherever.

This apartment is wonderful - clean, spacious, comfy bed, and a great location with canal view. Sabastino, the host, is outstanding! He met us at the apartment for check-in, took a lot of time explaining details about the apartment and the area, and provided suggestions for restaurants, gondolas, and day trips. In our haste to leave the morning of checkout, I left behind the clothes that I had hanging in the closet. Sabastino contacted me and offered to personally deliver them to the hotel that we were returning to following a cruise to Greece. The package was waiting for me when I arrived at the hotel. Sabastino’s kindness is truly appreciated! Don’t hesitate to rent this apartment!

Perfect location to view Italian life. From the ease of getting to the apartment from the train station or bus station, to just viewing everyday life on the sidewalks and canals.
