The apartment, at the top of an ancient Ventian building, has been completely renovated and equipped with quality furniture in 2014.
FEATURES: Form the main door at ground level, you have to climb a steep Venetian flight of 23 steps, to reach a large, finely decorated, stylishly furnished apartment that can host up to 8 people. It is arranged on two floors: the Goose Home (main apartment at second floor for with entrance hall, 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, living room and kichen/dining room) and the Goose Nest (mansard suite with ensuite bathroom and walk in wardrobe). The house is fully equipped: AC and heating in all rooms, washing machine, drying machine, iron and ironing board, hair dryer, microwave, toaster, dishwasher, free internet WiFi connection and Smart TV, baby bed (to confirm upon booking), sheets and towels for you all.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS:

CAN WE CHECK IN EARLIER THAN 15.00?

Our standard check in time at Ca' de l'Oca is 15.00, but
it is possible to drop off your luggage from 10 am:
This is necessary to do the cleaning and linen change after previous guests check out at 10. am

CAN WE CHECK OUT LATER THAN 10. am?

Late check out is possible only if we do not have new guests, otherwise we start cleaning up in the morning and you have to check out by 10.. But you can leave your luggage in our video surveilled storage area as long as you like (the housekeeper will be in the apartment cleaning and doing the laundry until mid afternoon, so your belongings will be absolutely safe).

Eight of us, all adults, had a great time being close but not too close to all the sights and Grand Canal. Yes it had steep steps. Watch your head and use the hand rail. Washer and dryers worked, great water pressure, huge dining table for coffee and wine.

Perfect Location
Perfectly located near everything. The residence was lovely. Very spacious. There was 6 of us with plenty of room. Easy Check in and out. Only thing i would address is air conditioning in the loft. It was always very warm but the temperatures outside were brutally hot. Venice was lovely and so was this host! I would stay again. Thank you!

Perfect place to stay in Venice
Great location and easy to get to. Close to the Rialto bridge and many resturants. The best Gelato in Venice just steps away. I would definitely stay here again. The apartment was a great layout for our 4adults 2kids. Everyone had space and having 3 bathrooms was awesome. The check in could not have been easier with all the helpful videos to help you get familiar with the apartment. If i could give 10 stars I would.

Perfect retreat to rest from adventures
We loved our stay at the Home of the Goose. The location is perfect and close enough to be near shopping and restaurants but also in a quiet alley where you can rest and recouperate after a day of adventures. Check in was easy and communication with the host smooth. We got there early and were able to leave our luggage in a safe, locked area while we explored the town. Apartment was very clean and furnished with all that we needed. We loved the sound system. Beds were comfortable. The only issue we had was there were no instructions on how to use the washer/dryer. We couldn't figure out the dryer so ended up hanging our clothes out to dry. We would recommend this apartment to anyone thinking of staying in Venice.

Location was absolutely perfect. Apartment was large and looked like the pictures. Although we enjoyed our stay, the apartment was not well maintained. Furniture was worn and there was smell of mildew. I am sure it is hard in Venice, but we did not smell it anywhere else in the City.

Spring Break trip over Palm Sunday
The goose house was perfect for our family- it was my husband and myself, our two boys (13 and 11), and my sister in law. We all had our own space which was great for just arriving from DC and all getting different amounts of sleep on the plane. The house is well appointed and in a great neighborhood- you are very close to a lot of activity but it does not feel like it because you are off an alley. Several good restaurants are close by and there is also a convenient grocery. We arrived from the airport no problem and left by train and it was all very straightforward thanks to Stefano’s directions. Very lovely space- we will book again if ever in Venice.

About the host

Hosted by Stefano

Host profile image
Hi, I rent two nice flats in Venice: This one is very large, strategically located in the hearth of the city close to Rialto, from where everithing is at a walking distance.
This apartment has been just restored in 2013, it is very large and comfortable, ideal for large family reunions or 2 familes travelling together. The location is strategic: you reach all points of interset in less than 30 minutes walk. Tons of good reasturants and shops just round the corner. You can read many reviews looking for "Ca de l'Oca" on the web.

Why they chose this property

I love to have guests in my apartments, though it is not my main work (I am a scientist in the field of controlled thermounclear fusion at the National Council for Research).
Feel free to contact me if you have any questions.
Cheers, Stefano Martini
