Overview
Experience the magic of staying in a four storey sixteenth century Venetian townhouse, lovingly renovated to provide contemporary comfort whilst retaining so much of its history and character.
Elegant Corallina is in the San Marco district, a short walk from the ferry stop, the prestigious palaces of the Grand Canal and St Mark’s Square. Some of La Serenissima’s most illustrious families have lived here over the centuries and its 21st century residents can still enjoy the authenticity of this exclusive Venetian neighbourhood. It’s only a short walk to find livelier streets with restaurants, bars, a gourmet grocery and a much-loved gelateria as well as being just a few steps from the Grand Canal.
From the marble lined entrance lobby to the spectacular views from the rooftop terrace, this air conditioned home provides comfort, privacy, and visual delight on every floor. Exposed original sixteenth century wooden ceiling beams grace each room, even in the sleek modern kitchen with its beautiful terrazzo floor.
The Armani dining table and chairs rest resplendently beneath the chandelier next to the gleaming digital piano waiting to be played. The artistic combination of modern and antique is incorporated in both the design and the variety of exquisite furniture found throughout. The two sets of stunning bifora windows are grandly separated by single marble columns and the stylish living room features a beautiful fireplace, its soft red hue reflected in the adjacent furnishings and complementing the gold of an ornate side table.
Two of the bedrooms have marble bathrooms, the master with the luxury of a bath, while the other double has a charming view over Venetian rooftops. The characterful third floor bedroom with a sofa-bed has short flight of wooden steps leading to the roof terrace, a fine place to sit with a glass of wine looking across the city, spotting the visible blue strip of the Grand Canal and identifying Venetian landmarks.
Back on the ground, it’s a minute's stroll to the waterbus which will whisk you to so many glorious destinations that Venice has to offer or simply stay local with a coffee at St Mark’s Square, a Bellini at the iconic Harry’s Bar or a visit to the colourful market near the Rialto Bridge, all within a ten to fifteen minute walk.
What you should know…
- The third bedroom is a lounge area/den on the top floor with a sofa-bed and shower room (the rooftop terrace is also accessed via this room)
- The top floor is accessed via steep stairs – due to this (and the nature of the rooftop terrace), this townhouse is best suited to older children/teens and guests who can manage tricky steps
- Please note that unfortunately the fireplace is not in use and is not available for guests to use due to Venice city regulations

Location
About the surrounding area of Corallina TownhouseCorallina is situated in the San Marco district of Venice, a few steps from the Grand Canal and a ten-minute stroll to the famous landmarks of St Mark’s Square. It is also a short walk from a couple of vaporetto stops - if you are arriving at Venice Marco Polo airport, a water taxi will take you to the stop very close by or the airport Alilaguna waterbus drops you off about a five minute walk away.
Some of the city’s most prosperous and illustrious families have lived in these streets over the centuries and it remains an authentically Venetian, elegant and comparatively non-touristy area. Within easy walking distance of restaurants, bars, a gelateria, a gourmet grocery shop as well as a supermarket a little further, you’ll enjoy bringing essentials, treats and delicacies back to your holiday home. Head to the famous Rialto market, about a 15-minute walk away, for peaches, cherries, vegetables and fish and enjoy the walk across the Renaissance stone-arched bridge which spans the narrowest part of the Grand Canal.
Take the ten minute walk from Corallina to St Mark’s Square with its domed Basilica and Gothic architecture of the Doge’s Palace. If you don’t mind heights, take the lift up the Campanile for superb views over city and lagoon. For a memorable and Venetian experience, Caffè Florian is the oldest café in the world, tucked beneath the arches of the Procuratie Nuove in St Mark’s Square - be sure to check the price of coffee and cake beforehand!
There are plenty of other charming eating places and bars in lesser known parts of La Serenissima. Indeed, it’s always great fun to just meander around this enchanting city to see what you might find - tiny bridges crossing narrow canals, a hidden church, a flower decked courtyard bar and interesting cameos of daily life in this fascinating city. Wherever you find yourself, you are sure to eventually arrive back at your elegant holiday home in one of the most enchanting cities of the world.

Region
Venice, a captivating city situated in the northeastern part of Italy, is a place like no other. Often referred to as the "City of Canals," Venice is renowned for its unique and mesmerising beauty. Built on a network of one-hundred-and-eighteen small islands connected by a labyrinth of canals, this enchanting city offers an array of attractions and experiences that make it a must-visit destination for travellers from around the world.
Kids
Best Suited For: TeensVenice is a magical city for children of all ages. The impressions made during a visit to this extraordinary floating city will last a lifetime and its fascinating history is sure to spark their imagination for years to come.
Learn about the fabulous Venetian festivals, visit a mask maker, cross the canal on a traghetto or treat yourselves to a gondola ride, hopefully with a singing gondolier. A ferry trip to the glassblowers on the island of Murano is always fascinating (45 minutes via vaporetto).
There’s a spooky tour through the prisons in the Doge’s Palace and, for a complete change, the sandy stretches of the Lido are great for beachcombing - here you can catch a bus or hire a bike to explore the local area.
