The Cannaregio district itself offers authentic local experiences, from traditional bacari (wine bars) serving delectable cicchetti (Venetian tapas) to artisanal shops where time-honored crafts continue to flourish away from the tourist crowds.
What sets Aqua Apartments apart is not just its prime location or luxurious accommodations, but its ability to offer guests an authentic slice of Venetian life. Unlike the often overcrowded tourist centers, this Cannaregio location provides a glimpse into how locals live, with morning markets, neighborhood cafés, and peaceful canals where gondoliers navigate their vessels with practiced ease.

James from United States – 26 December 2024 (10/10)
Perfect location in Cannaregio… close to everything and yet the apartments were down a cute alley (pictures) away from any noise—very quiet on the canal (Picture from room). There is a super cute communal outside space that connects to the canal, but it was too cold for us to use (pictures).
Joshua from Australia – 19 December 2024 (9/10)
Awesome apartment with comfy beds, beautifully clean and an excellent location. Very quiet, excellent bathroom and friendly staff. We stayed 5 nights as a family and could easily have stayed longer. Highly recommend this property.
