The studio is located in the heart of Santa Croce, one of Venice’s most authentic and charming neighborhoods, just a short walk from the picturesque Campo San Giacomo dell’Orio.

This beautiful, tree-lined Campo (square) is one of the Venetians’ favorite gathering spots: a corner of the city where children play, locals meet for coffee, and life still flows to the rhythms of tradition.

In the surrounding area, you’ll find quaint taverns, small bacari where you can sample traditional Venetian cicchetti, restaurants, cafés, small shops, and grocery stores.

As you stroll through quiet alleys, across small bridges, and along picturesque canals, you’ll discover a Venice far from the most crowded tourist routes, while still being ideally located to visit the city’s main attractions.

Our tip? In the morning, treat yourself to a cappuccino in Campo San Giacomo dell’Orio, explore Venice without a specific destination in mind, and at sunset, stop by a bacaro for a spritz paired with a few cicchetti. It’s one of the best ways to experience the true Venetian atmosphere!

The famous Rialto Bridge, the lively fish market, the Basilica dei Frari, and numerous museums and historic palaces are all within easy walking distance.

Santa Lucia train station and Piazzale Roma are also relatively close by, making arrivals and departures convenient.

From the airport, you can choose:
1) Take the ATVO bus to Piazzale Roma and walk from there for about 15 minutes, or take Vaporetto No. 1 to the Riva de Biasio stop (the second stop after Piazzale Roma). The bus ride takes about 35–40 minutes.

2) Take the ALILAGUNA shuttle—orange line—and get off at the SAN STAE stop, from where you can reach the apartment in 5–10 minutes on foot. The boat ride takes about 50 minutes.

3) Take a water taxi. In this case, you’ll need to tell the driver to drop you off at Campo San Giacomo dell’Orio, across from the church. The apartment is on the opposite side of the canal.”
