For centuries Venice has been associated with romance and even today it is the most popular destination for couples. Indeed what could be more romantic then to blissfully glide down the picturesque canals with your loved one, on a gondola? Having said this a trip to Venice is sure to enchant everyone, in love or not. The local inhabitants are only few (300.000 people live in Venice) and this why the holiday rental market strives here.

The name Venice came from the Veneti’s who lived here in the 10th century (before Christ) and is referred to as "The Floating City" and "City of canals". Indeed Venice stretches across 117 tiny islands along the Adriatic Sea and has over 400 bridges.

 Castello apartments

 Castello is the largest district in Venice and full of magnificent attractions like the Church of Santi Giovanni e Paolo and The Church of San Zaccaria. Castello was one of the earliest parts of Venice to be settled into and today a great place for families and couples to rent an apartment for its proximity to San Marco. The Venice Biennial, one of the world’s most renowned contemporary art exhibition, takes place here.

 Cannaregio

 This is the second largest sestiere and probably the most quiet and residential. There’s an array of well-priced restaurants here and when you are eating out remember to try the Castradina, a famous local dish consisting of Lamb and Cabbage. The Venezianam (Veal liver) is also not to be missed.

 San Marco

 San Marco is the so-called epicentre of Venice and probably the most popular location to rent an apartment in Venice. The size and grandeur of this piazza is something to see to be believed in. There are some fantastic bars (think the famous Harry’s Bar in Venice) and restaurants here. San Marco is also the main transport link for excursions to the islands of Giudecca and Murano.

  • Some Reviews

    Guitto
    this is the 6th time that I have used Holiday Velvet, and with one exception - where the problem was dealt with very well - I am always extremely happy with the quality of service that they offer. All the basics are correct - the price, the welcome, the cleanliness and practicality of the apartments - but more than that, the apartments seem always to have a charm and character that always beats a bland hotel. This Venice apartment - Guitto - was particularly beautiful.I would like to return there.

    Residence Da Ponte
    This Venice accommodation is well situated in the St Marco area, only a few minutes from St Marks square. It is very spacious and had all the facilities needed to make our stay very comfortable. I would recommend it to other travellers.
