The Carmen is a contemporary style apartment served by elevator, located only few meters from the famous Fenice Theatre, in the heart of the San Marco District.
This canal view apartment is literally flooded with natural light coming from the 10 large windows overlooking the canals surrounding it.
Beside the location and the superb interior design, the highlight of the Carmen apartment is in fact the picturesque canal views that can be enjoyed from the living room and bedrooms: looking out the windows you can see gondolas gliding by on the calm emerald waters.
The location is possibly the best in Venice’s historical centre for its quietness, beauty and central position. The vaporetto stop and the supermarket are only two minutes away and there are plenty of excellent restaurants and cafés nearby.
It is found at the 3rd floor of an historic Palazzo that gain access from Campiello dei Callegheri and is equipped with elevator, it has been long-time owned by the same family who completely renovated it and now offered to our privileged guests.
The Carmen apartment is about 80 square meters large and consists of a living and dining room with a comfortable sofa and a table for up to 6 people; two double bedrooms, the first has a king size mattress, the second has two single mattresses that can be set up as one double bed on request; two full bathrooms, the first next to the living room is very spacious, the second between the bedrooms is smaller, both features a nice shower cabin; a spacious and functional kitchen equipped with a set of professional cooking pots, pans, utensils and porcelains, 4 induction stoves, dishwasher, oven, microwave, kettle, toaster and coffee maker.
Every room is equipped with an efficient air-conditioning system and there is climate-controlled heating, Wi-Fi internet connection and there is a Smart TV in the living room, beside the washing machine in the main bathroom.
The Carmen apartment (named after the well-known Opera from Georges Bizet, represented also at the Fenice Theatre) is one of the 6 units available in this Palazzo and can be combined with the Madama Butterfly apartment, also found at the same level, door to door. We call the combination of the two Rigoletto: a perfect solution for groups of up to 10 people.
We highly recommend the Carmen apartment for 4 demanding guests who are looking for a truly charming and exclusive home.

Dear Veronica, I wanted to write to thank you and all the Truly Venice staff and agents so much for all your help in making our big family holiday in Venice so special and memorable. At every step of the way, the Truly Venice staff have been so helpful, communicative and supportive. The Rigoletto apartment (Carmen + Madama Butterfly apartment) is wonderful - exactly what we wanted and needed in terms of space, numbers and location. Thank you so very much. Best wishes, Juliet
A super apartment which is very central and close to all areas of Venice. Four of us stayed here and the lift was a real bonus for the older members in our group. Spotlessly clean with beautiful modern bathrooms, high quality bed linens and excellent facilities. The view of the canal below was an added bonus and it was great fun watching the gondolas glide by - we were serenaded nearly every evening. A quiet spot to stay close to many cafes and restaurants and only a 2 minute walk from the Vaporetto stop. Perfect - I would highly recommend booking with Truly Venice Apartments.
The appartement is great. In the shadow of the Fenice opera house. Canals et gondolas circle the building, it's typical Venice ! Bright, modern, clean, spacious. The déco is sober and tasteful and furnished with quality materials. 2 bathrooms, really practical. New kitchen appliances, washing machine is a plus. Basic kitchen crockery & cutlery (I woud have appréciated a cheese grater for the parmesan !) and most of all, good air conditionning- we had up to 36 °c when we were there. It is well situated for visiting Venice, not too far from the vaporetto and San Marco, Rialto and the Gran Canal can all be reached in a few minutes walk. Good choice of restaurants near, we liked those on piazza San Stefano. We would reccomend this appartement to other travellers.

The perfect stay in Venice! We stayed here this beautiful apartment for a week in August. The apartment felt like we owned it so beautifully decorated so welcoming and the best location in Venice. The canal view from the window is beautiful. The apartment itself is very nice, clean, light and spacious, with everything you need for your stay. San Marco is only a short walk away. We really enjoyed staying here. It's a wonderful place and if we ever come again to Venice I'm sure we going to stay there again.
Ideal getaway in the heart of Venice. Beautiful, secluded location, away from the crowd but so close to many beautiful spots in town. The presence of a lift, a rarity in Venice is a plus. The apartment is nicely appointed with all the amenities necessary for an extended stay. We will be back for sure, we loved every bit of our experience.
Communication was excellent both before and during our stay. We booked a private transfer from the airport (only way to do it despite the cost) and we were met then guided to the apartment (5 minutes walk away). The position is great. Restaurants, cafes, shops and bars only a couple of minutes away yet (apart from the signing gondoliers) peaceful and quiet. Truly Venice were very accommodating regarding our luggage as our flight wasn't until the evening, overall a memorable stay! Thank you.
What can I say...that would be enough! Loved our month in Venice staying at the Carmen Apartment. The location is excellent, close to San Marco, vaporetto stop but quietly tucked away. Everything you could possible need for a comfortable stay has been provided Daniela and her staff are available for any questions you might have. We were greeted at the vaporetto stop, guided to the apartment & shown how everything worked. The weekly cleaning service is wonderful & so nice to come back to fresh towels, linen & all as neat as a pin. We loved it so much we plan to return at the same time 2020. I think you would be happy in any of the apartments on offer as the standard is so high, in fact we have recommended a couple of other apartments to fiends. Having stayed in Hotels every year for the past 6 years, we found that staying with Truly Venice was a far superior option, we lived the local life, shopped at Rialto for produce & the local supermarkets. Woke with the church bells each morning & enjoyed the gondoliers serenade in the afternoons. Thank you so much!
