Right in the beating heart of Venice, yet situated on one of the quietest and most picturesque streets in the neighbourhood, this seaside home is a tranquil haven. Skylights illuminate the rooms, decorated in neutral tones with pleasing dusky pinks, soft blues and sandy tones to echo the coastal surroundings and unforgettable LA sunsets. Your host has made great use of small nooks and inaccessible corners to create mini sanctuaries within the larger seating area and by the doors into the courtyard garden. Wooden floors, jute rugs and an abundance of greenery all contribute to creating that all-important connection with nature and making you feel at peace. Explore the neighbourhood, and you'll find any number of fabulous cafes, bars and restaurants right on your doorstep. Local standouts include Felix Trattoria and Plant Food + Wine, both just a few minutes away on foot. You're about a half-mile from the shore and the famed Venice Skatepark facing the ocean if you head towards the coast. Head to a rooftop bar to take in the vistas while sipping a cocktail in the balmy weather - the ideal way to cap off a beautiful day. Home truths: *There is a convenient self-check-in via smart lock *Though you won't necessarily need a car, there is private onsite and free on-street parking – Venice's narrow alleys mean the space is better suited to a compact vehicle *Child-friendly amenities such as a cot, highchair and baby bath are available upon request *Your host kindly asks you to keep outdoor noise to a minimum after 9 pm
