There are two lovely apartments and a delightful neighborhood that provide the very best in contemporary Venetian vacation living. The two flats to rent are called Grimani (up to 7 people) and Loredan (up tp 4 people), and they are part of the same nineteenth century Palazzo that rises between Campo San Polo and Campo San Giacomo dall'Orio, near Rialto Bridge, in the historic center of Venice.
The residential complex also includes a pleasant garden equipped with a table and chairs for outdoor dining, as well as a tennis court and club house which can be booked by guests.
The Venetian palazzo, once surrounded by canals, gained its present aspect as the result of extensive reconstruction during the Napoleonic era. A complete restoration by the present owners preserved all the elegance typical of Venetian palaces, but also installed up-to-date technology, resulting in a marvelous standard of living.

Casa San Boldo: enjoy a vacation or a Venice city break
Located just ten minutes from the Rialto Bridge, both apartments enjoy an enviable location and an extraordinary quiet, well protected from the outside life by an open area where a garden with table and chairs for dining out and a tennis clay-court can offer a suitable place for relaxing.
This is the best place to experience the real venetian life by wondering around during the day and for listening to the singing gondoliers passing by along the windows of your apartment.
Grimani and Loredan apartments are located in the very heart of Venice, in the Sestiere (neighbourhood) of San Polo, heart of the commercial Venice and the smallest of the venetian sestieri, reached by crossing the Rialto Bridge spanning the Grand Canal.
The shopping here is much less expensive than in the boutiques around Piazza San Marco. One of the major attractions is the Erbaria, which Casanova wrote about in his 18th century biography. Both wholesale and retail markets still pepper this ancient site. At its center is the church of San Giacomo di Rialto, the oldest in the city. The district also includes Frari’s Church and the Scuola Grande di San Rocco, a repositary of the works of Tintoretto. Campo San Polo is one of the oldest and widest squares in Venice and is one of the principal venues for Carnival.

Venice and its life
Other cities have non-stop nightlife, world-class football teams and ethnic enclaves. Venice has none of these things; but it does possess the huge advantage of being Venice. This city imitates nobody but itself.
In fact, there is no other place in the world like Venice, a city made up of 118 tiny islands separated by some 150 canals crossed by more than 400 bridges. Venice is a city which has something for everyone.
If you love cultural events you cannot miss one of the two big exhibition held every year at Palazzo Grassi; also the spectacular Historical Regatta and the popular Vogalonga along the Grand Canal are events that must be seen at least once in your life.
We cannot describe the emotions and the happiness Venetian feel when they gather in front of San Marco with their boats for the night of the Redentore and its enchanting fireworks.
The international Film Festival or the Biennale of Art are increasing in their popularity and success: during these days Venice seems to be the center of the word and becomes as colorful and crowded as possible.
If you love instead a more intimate atmosphere you’ll probably prefer autumn and winter: for a while the city is calm and quite and you can walk along the calle together with the sounds of water running in the canals.
Anyway Venetians tend to appreciate feasts, fears, good food and tasteful wine: that ‘s way Venice is plenty of little restaurants, osterias and bācari where you can have joyful lunches and rich dinners
