Kid-friendly holiday rentals in Santa Croce, Venice

Pamela’s Airbnb was perfect for our mother-daughter trip to Venice! The location couldn’t have been better, just steps from charming cafes, beautiful canals, and all the sights we wanted to explore. The apartment was spotless, cozy, and felt incredibly safe and welcoming. Pamela was a kind and thoughtful host, ensuring we had everything we needed. It truly felt like a home away from home. We made wonderful memories here and would absolutely stay again!

Beautiful view and right next to Farragona water/boat taxi. The hostess was wonderful- flexible with our check-in/out. Easy to communicate. The apartment is spacious and clean. We always felt safe. It is a more quiet area and that was just what I was hoping - peaceful and relaxing.

Chiara always responded quickly and I was sure that everything will work out before the trip. She welcomed us warmly and the location was nice and close to the vaporetto station. At night it was nice and quiet, also it was clean. There was a bialetti, good coffee, toaster, everything is fine.

Great location, easy transportation to Venice.

This stay makes 5 weeks we have spent in this Airbnb. I can honestly say there is nothing I would change about it. Everything you could need is provided and everything works like a charm. The host is excellent and this is where we will stay every time we come to Venice. Bravo Adriano. You’ve made us very happy to be able to stay here. Grazie Mille

This was a fabulous place to stay, well maintained and a great location. 10 min walk to Rialto Bridge. Spotlessly clean. Barbara and Paolo were super helpful, happy to provide recommendations and responded to messages quickly. Apartment had everything you would need to cook. We used local bars/restaurants.

Great time in Venice staying at this perfect location! Very quiet area with plenty of food options, close to all forms of transportation, and within walking distance to everything. The host was very receptive and quick responding back to any questions we had. Charming stay!

The place is immaculate- in pristine condition, very clean. It is a very comfortable apartment with lots of big windows! Very cosy bed to spend peaceful nights. You will feel very safe there. All amenities you will possibly need. The kitchen is really good to cook. A very big bathroom. I love the location so much with wonderful Campo Di Santa Margherita where I was buying fresh bread, flowers, berries and veggies early in the morning observing locals passing by to their studies, work, walking with their dogs, buying newspapers and so on. You can go anywhere from that place or just stay there enjoying Dorsoduro. A lot of absolutely wonderful museums in the area. Ca Rezzonico became my favorite - the collection, the palazzo itself! La Fenice theater is absolutely stunning. I was taking public water transport easily to the other parts of Venice like Giudecca. And a water taxi to the airport. Matteo and Raffaella, very warm people, were so kind to me. I was very happy there. Thank you

The accommodation is very well located , it is clean, the bedding very comfortable. The neighborhood is quiet so pleasant , little tourist , and ideally located to enjoy excellent restaurants nearby. The welcome was just great , clear explanations, the host really took the time to tell us lots of nice places! And the little extra , she speaks very good French and is super responsive in case of a glitch. She also arranged for us when we checked out late to drop off our suitcases in the meantime! Accommodation so at the top in every way

This place… literally worth every penny. From the location and the perfect part of town it’s in, to the fact that I could hear the gondaliers as they go past our windows and opening up the windows to our own personal quiet canal. This place was everything and more. Truly a perfect airbnb in Venice. One of my friends was so inspired by the photos I posted of this place, she immediately booked it and planned a trip to come out just for this place. Highly recommend! Thank you again paolo!

Traudy was wonderfully communicative for our stay, which was helpful as there are a few things to keep in mind with the tourist tax, garbage pick up, etc. The space was clean, large and open! The location was great, very walkable and tucked away. There are stairs to enter, so that’s something to keep in mind when packing!

We were welcomed by Patricia who greeted us at a meeting place and directed us to the Airbnb home. Throughout our stay, Patricia was accommodating and very responsive to any queries we had. The Airbnb itself was beautiful and in the perfect location with tourist attractions only a short walk away. We really enjoyed our stay and will be sure to return if we ever come back to Venice!

Davide’s AirBnB was one of the nicest I have personally stayed at. The description perfectly matched what we stayed in, very clean and walkable to everything. It was very spacious and the bed was so big and comfortable. The neighborhood was so nice with a grocery store and pharmacy right around the corner. Would definitely stay here again if ever in Venice again!

Valeria is a great host. She welcomed us, shared personal local recommendations and was very responsive whenever we had questions or needed help. She was very welcoming and the location of the apartment was very good. It’s very close to the train station (so you don’t have to carry your luggage very far) and the neighborhood felt very local (not touristy), which we really enjoyed. We could walk everywhere and really enjoyed all the restaurants that Valeria recommended. We would come back :)

When we entered this room, we were shocked. The look of the house, including the light and the feeling of the light, was exactly the same.The light coming from the patio below made the whole room very bright, and it rained heavily in the afternoon when we arrived in Venice, so it was very comfortable to stay in the room.It is also very convenient to cook.In addition, we are very grateful to the owner for providing us with thoughtful service, so that we can travel freely with large suitcases.

Perfect location and beautiful space. The hosts were very responsive and helpful. The room was spacious and clean. We loved our stay!

Comfortable, clean apartment in a great location, close to the train station. Piero is a great host.

Would definitely stay again! Their place is very well located! They are very friendly and make you feel at home! Great communication!

We booked because another guest's review said "just go for it" and I would offer the same advice to others. We had a great time enjoying coffee & wine on the terrace while watching boat traffic on the Grand Canal. Although there are Vaporetto stops nearby, we walked almost everywhere we went and it was great to explore the neighborhood. For a quiet night in, stop by Fried Land (just around the corner) for excellent take-out pasta.

We had an amazing stay at Giovanni and Susannas apartment. The communication straight from the start was excellent. The instructions were clear and we managed to easily find the apartment and enter easily, even though we got there really late at night. The area is amazing, close enough to all of the must-sees in Venice, but lovely and quiet and feels much more authentic and local. There are fantastic restaurants just around the corner too! Thanks again! We will definitely stay again when we are back in Venice.

This was by far the best Airbnb we have ever booked. The place is beautiful, spacious, and comfortable, but what stood out to me was how they thought about every single detail. For example, I love to cook, and in the places we stay, most of the time, it is not the best experience. Someone just went and bought utensils without much thought. Here, you have anything you would need to cook a nice meal. This level of care was not only evident in the kitchen but also throughout the entire apartment and in the entire guest experience, from check-in to checkout. Valentina is also incredibly responsive and kind. Thank you for a great experience!

We absolutely loved our stay at Olivia’s beautiful apartment in Venice. Everything was exactly as described — even better! Olivia is a wonderful, warm-hearted host who made us feel at home from the very first moment. We were greeted with a lovely welcome gift, and every detail in the apartment shows how much care she puts into making her guests feel comfortable. The rooftop terrace is simply stunning — the perfect spot to enjoy a coffee or a glass of wine while soaking in the Venetian atmosphere. We also appreciated Olivia’s great local restaurant recommendations; we discovered some fantastic places away from the usual tourist crowds. The building itself has so much character and history — you truly feel like you’re living in old Venice, with authentic decor and a special charm you won’t find in modern hotels. In short: we felt completely at home and couldn’t have asked for more. Thank you, Olivia, for an unforgettable stay — we will definitely come back!

It's a nice atmospheric apartment with everything included. The building is in walkable distance from the main train station. Especially thanks to the host for engaging and entertaining stories and tips

A beautiful apartment in a small building that you will be the only one to occupy. The apartment is nice, bright, well furnished, decorated and equipped. The place is perfectly quiet yet located in the heart of the tourist district of Cannaregio. Marta is available and very accommodating
