Even if you are not prepared with information about Venice, after a warm welcome from the girls you will receive a map and all the information you need for your stay :-) Plus some extra advice where to go and what to see which only locals could give you :-) Very nice, clean flat with everything you might need- from hair dryer and iron to washing machine. It's bigger than it looks on the photos. Very close to San Stae vaporetto stop. Across the street there is a Pasticceria Majer where you can have breakfast and real Italian coffee. There is gelateria next to it and also many restaurants nearby. Nice area, very close to everything but not so crowded. We spent a great time in Venice. Thank you Rosanna for being part of it with your lovely flat!

“Beautiful studio apt to appreciate Venice”

The studio apt Ca Cortigiane at 1662 S. Croce was excellent. After a slight mixup for our first night of booking, Rosanna and Laura were extremely kind and accommodating to resolve the issue.

The studio apt Ca Cortigiane at 1662 S. Croce was excellent. After a slight mixup for our first night of booking, Rosanna and Laura were extremely kind and accommodating to resolve the issue. In addition, they both provided great help and tips for what to see and where to eat and avoid! All of their recommendations were great. The apt is beautiful and well equipped for a short vacation (1 double bed + 2 pull out singles, washing machine, small terrace). Exactly as described and made for a wonderful visit in Venice. Our kids loved the secret hideout space from the pull-out beds. Would gladly stay here again on our next visit!

This is a spacious apartment in a lovely neighborhood, with its own piazza, grocery store, hardware store, bakery, and fresh veg market, and many restaurants. The apartment itself is nicely furnished, and is so quiet, you'd never know there is a bustling square just outside! The hostesses are lovely, and responsive, and provide great recommendations. If we come to Venice again, we will stay here!

We rented the Ca Cortigiane apartment in Santa Croce for four nights in mid-May. The apartment is actually a bit larger than it appears in the photos, with the small kitchen and bath at one end of the hallway and the living and sleeping area at the other. Though we only used the double bed in the raised sleeping area, a pair of trundle beds are also available. The apartment is on the ground floor. The kitchen was compact, but well equipped, containing both a convection toaster oven and a microwave with a broiler element. There was no coffee maker, but an electric kettle was supplied, along with Moka pots. The living area opened into a small terrace that looked into the common central courtyard. The bath was comfortable, and had plentiful hot water. Unfortunately, Rosanna was ill the day we arrived, but she sent Lucia to let us in and give us the basics. Francesca followed up with a visit the next day to get our passport information and give us a better introduction to both the apartment and the neighborhood. The apartment is located a short block from Campo San Giacomo dell'Orio, with easy access to several restaurants and a neighborhood COOP grocery store. The San Stae vaporetto station is the nearest, just around the corner. Aside from the usual very minor issues you sometimes run into (a couple of burnt out bulbs, a clock that didn't work), the only negative was the bedding...we were supplied with a duvet that was a little warm, and the linen closets are normally kept locked. If you feel you might need a lighter bed cover, extra towels, or extra pillows, be sure to ask for them when you arrive, otherwise you would need to contact Rosanna or Francesca. Also, if you intend to use the clothes washer, be sure to ask for a brief lesson! A bed and breakfast is located in the same building, and I should note that we were disturbed several times by people seeking that establishment ringing our doorbell. Of the nearby restaurants, La Zucca was highly recommended, but we weren't able to get reservations. The nearby Muro San Stae became our go-to restaurant, with very good pizza and pasta dishes. Overall, the apartment was quite nice, in a good location, with excellent, friendly hosts.
