- We had a wonderful vacation in Italy! Holiday Velvet was very helpful and the service was wonderful. A representative met us when we arrived in Venice. She couldn't have been kinder and more eager to help (and she spoke beautiful English). The original apt we reserved unexpectedly was unavailable,unavailable but Holiday Velvet upgraded us to a huge place in a great neighborhood and honored our original price. I would use Holiday Velvet again and have already recommended them to a friend.

- We absolutely loved our stay at the Accademia Grande. It was far more spacious than we had anticipated and the bedrooms were fantastic. We enjoyed the piano and our proximity to ristorantes and delightful shopping areas. Peggy Guggenheim Centre was just around the corner - definitely worth a visit. Pity it's so far away from Australia or we would come more frequently.

- 5 stars all the way. This was an excellent apartment in a wonderful area. It was a 5 minute walk to Accademia water stop and a 15 walk to St Marks Square. It was very spacious with brilliant amenities. I would thoroughly recommend this to a family or group of friends. It was one of the best holidays I ever had.

- Dear James, Thanks for your note. The Venice apartment and the Rome apartment were both terrific. Thanks for your help and advice in selecting them. We had a spectacular vacation thanks to you and will definitely consult Holiday Velvet for our next trip.

- Our apartment was absolutely stunning in every way-the gorgeous location on a canal yards from the Grand Canal,the magnificence of the property-20ft ceilings and such luxury,and the total tranquility and relaxing atmosphere..A very memorable stay in a city we know very well.We will definitely book through you again.The property was spotless,a good price for the New Year period,and the service impeccable.

- Wonderful apartment, lovely local agent who was very helpful with generous advice on where to go to eat, look and shop, nothing seemed too much trouble. Quality of service from Holiday Velvet was excellent too, I'm happy to recommend. Location of apartment superb and it was good value for money, given that Venice is very expensive.

- What a fantastic apartment! The location was great and the apartment was huge. It wa s bright and spacious and had everything we needed for our stay in Venice. Our contact was well informed and could not have been more helpful. We would definately stay here again.

- Fantastic location - convenient and quiet and easy to find in the dark. Great apartment - old but stylish fit-out and lots of room for our lively family. We look forward to returning.
