Monkeys & Monsteras

Housed in a historic canal-side palace and just a stone’s throw from the Rialto Bridge, this beautifully curated studio apartment blends luxury and Old World glamour in a dazzlingly modern way.

From the Murano glass chandelier to the Rococo-style gilt mirror and huge red-draped windows, this space is full of bold, characterful design and thoughtful details that make it feel as swish as it does comfortable. We love the vibrant jade coloured feature wall with its monkey and montsera illustrations, while the cleverly designed sleeping arrangement over two levels adds to the eye-catching splendour in the main room.

When you’re not sitting pretty in your chic home, go out and explore your San Marco neighbourhood and the countless sights within easy walking distance. The Rialto Bridge is a three-minute walk, lively St. Mark's Square is a six-minute stroll and the Venetian Gothic Doge’s Palace is eight minutes away on foot. Factor in the wine tastings, cooking classes, city tours, and skippered boat excursions to the Venetian Lagoon that your host can organise, and there’s no end to the good times in store.
