Apartment Antonella

Much lauded and delightfully ostentatious, Apartment Antonella is an apartment you’ll be talking about for years to come, nestled in the heart of the Dorsoduro area of Venice. Accommodating up to eight guests across four elegant and stylish bedrooms, this stunning property offers incredible levels of luxury, as well as showcasing incredible views of the Grand Canal to the Accademia Bridge, The Academy of Fine Arts, and beyond.

Situated on the first floor, Apartment Antonella features a Grand Canal water entrance, ensuring that you and your guests can arrive, depart, and take sightseeing trips in style, and the luxury doesn’t end there! As you enter the property, you’re sure to be lost for words as you take in the stunning interior, featuring 17th-19th century antiques, sumptuously upholstered seating, and wallpapers and decorative features designed by some of the most celebrated interior designers. All of this plays gently alongside modern and classic pieces, for an eclectic fusion of pure opulence. A bright and spacious formal ‘salone’, with stunning gilded wall sconces and Venetian gothic windows opens out onto a marble balcony that overlooks the canal, and adjacent to that is a grand sitting room, with sumptuous teal sofas, rich gold fabrics, and fabulous antiques.

The main dining room is equally palatial, with a formal dining table that can accommodate 12 diners and overlooks the Grand Canal. This glorious space features rich ruby walls, gilded sconces and carved wooden churches for an elegant and decadent dinner experience. Apartment Antonella also features a breakfast room - accommodating eight guests and ideal for lighter, more informal meals - that you’ll find located adjacent to the apartment’s well-equipped kitchen. This beautifully bespoke designed area features brushed oak units, black marble work surfaces, a wooden butchers’ block, and a 15th century fireplace. Here you’ll find ample room for food preparation, as well as quality amenities and appliances that include a double oven and eight gas burner hob, Miele appliances, and an American-style fridge-freezer.

At the rear of the apartment, in contrast to the grand and formal Salone at the entrance, is a second sitting room decorated in a classic and cosy style. Guests can enjoy lounging here and indulging in reading, pre-dinner drinks and conversation, all while overlooking the leafy west-facing garden. From here it is easy to retire to the first of the apartment’s beautiful bedrooms - a spacious double that features a four-poster bed and refreshing blue and white decor, a chaise lounge in rub red, and an ensuite with a bathtub and shower facilities for the ultimate in convenience and luxury. A second double bedroom features a king-size bed and ensuite bathroom, and an elegant ‘bird and blossom’ decor for a wonderfully romantic ambience.

Apartment Antonella’s other two bedrooms are located in the centre of the apartment; a double with a dusky pink and delicate cream decor and ensuite bathroom, and a twin room (ideal for older kids!), with canopied beds and a ‘secret’ corridor leading to a double ensuite with bath and shower.
