We had a completely outstanding visit at the B&B Ca' del Tentor from May 13-16, 2024. We did considerable research choosing this property. We found it was a small independent and traditional B&B, not an airB&B. We wanted not too expensive, not to cheap. We planned to only sleep in the room, so small was not a problem (although we did request the largest room #2). We needed it to be close to San Polo and Canaregio. It was also a very short walk from the Alilaguna ferry stop at San Stae. Close to Rialto, not too close to Rialto. Food and wine paradise in all directions. We decided to book directly with the B&B about 5 months in advance. I was very comfortable with their website, deposit process, and emailed status updates. Balance payment was automatic a week before arrival. The host responded with quick text communications and allowed us early check-in. First impressions were clean, adequate size, and resembling the photos. We dumped the bags, wasting no time exploring. First night was a comfortable mattress, and cross-breeze with windows slightly open. Breakfast and espressos were served by a very friendly attendant (wish I could remember her name). We had to take a peek at the rooftop deck. All 3 breakfasts had the same choices, but there were enough choices to allow us to make each day different enough. When we returned to room late on day 2, we found it freshened up just like check-in time, We came up with an (impractical) idea for a photographer for our last full day, and we texted our host for a recommendation. While he researched he suggested we try his father’s restaurant nearby (I believe it’s Ostaria al Garanghelo), and it was excellent. For this last day, our host had arranged for a friend who was an amateur (but experienced) photographer for an hour shoot in the area. He decided to join us as well so we could all meet. It was a special last minute event and we could not believe the extra time and effort that he provided us. We highly recommend this B&B will definitely return here for our next Venice visit.
