About
This Space
Perched above Venice's famous Grand Canal, just across from the Santa Maria della Salute Basilica, sits the Vista Santa Maria apartment. This air-conditioned Venetian vacation rental includes access to a communal terrace and views onto a quiet square. Just minutes from the famous Piazza San Marco, this is the ideal location for exploring the center of Venice and beyond.
This "noble" floor, 120m2/ 1292 sq ft apartment is situated in a fully-renovated historical 12th century palazzo - owned and lived in by the same Venetian family (they have a private section of the palazzo) for over 200 years. You will feel pampered by the central air-conditioning, lovely linens, thick towels, plush mattresses, daily maid service, and fresh croissants delivered to your door every morning. The classic Italian-style décor filled colorful, contemporary twists, help make your stay all the more memorable.
When not out dining Italian style, light meals and breakfasts can be prepared in the well-equipped, kitchen. A food and produce market and many shops are close and convenient to your rental.
Rented together with our Canale Grande, Vista Panoramica, and Vista Sul Campo, these four apartments can accommodate up to 18 guests close together in the same building. There is even an internal staircase connecting Vista Sul Campo and Vista Santa Maria. This rare set-up is ideal for large families, friends, and business colleagues traveling together.
The shared terrace where there is dining for eight and comfortable couches for a relaxing aperitivo after a day of Italian sightseeing and exploring is the perfect place to meet fellow travelers. These four properties have exclusive access to this terrace that is reached through the common areas of the palazzo.

About
The Area
Venice, the iconic Italian city located in the Veneto region of Italy at the northwestern end of the Adriatic Sea, is famed for its canals, waterways, architectural beauty, and deeply ingrained culture and art. Made up of 118 small islands separated by about 150 canals which are linked by about 400 bridges, travel in the city center must be on foot or famed gondola.
The islands are located in the shallow Venetian Lagoon, an enclosed bay that lying between the mouths of the Po and Piave river.
The lagoon and parts of the city center are listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
