A compact studio with a private paved garden

Studio Garden is the apartment for those looking for the essentials at a fair price. It’s small — 22 square metres, a studio where everything is contained within a functional space. But it has something that makes a difference: a private paved garden, renovated and well planted. Not a forgotten Venetian courtyard, but a considered outdoor space — accessible, well kept, easy to use. It’s tucked away from the street, so you have privacy when you’re outside. The apartment is furnished with care and has everything you need: a simple kitchen for basic cooking, a shower room, air conditioning, WiFi. Ground floor, so no stairs. On a quiet calle in Castello, one of those streets where almost nobody passes. It suits anyone, not only artists: a couple on holiday, someone here for the Biennale, a professional on assignment.

An affordable option with a private garden

Studio Garden is for those who want to be in Venice without overspending, while still having a space to call their own. The paved garden is the real asset: breakfast outside, working with a laptop in the open air, reading. Accessible, clean, and tucked away so nobody can see you from the street. The apartment is small but well organised — everything in the right place, no wasted space. The kitchen handles simple cooking, the bathroom is functional, the bed is comfortable. Castello is the right sestiere if you want to experience Venice at a measured pace: San Marco is 10 minutes away, the Biennale is 15, and you come back to a quiet residential area. A straightforward, affordable choice for couples who want their own outdoor space included.

How the apartment is laid out

Studio Garden is a 22 sqm studio on the ground floor of a quiet residential building in Castello. A private independent entrance leads into a compact but well-organised space. The studio integrates the sleeping and living areas: a queen-size double bed, a small kitchen with hob, fridge, microwave and coffee machine, and a table for eating or working.

The kitchen is for simple use: breakfast, quick meals, nothing elaborate. The bathroom has a shower, hairdryer and courtesy kit. The paved garden is directly accessible from the apartment — a renovated outdoor space with plants and a small table where you can sit outside. Tucked away and private, not visible from the street. The apartment is furnished with care; the spaces are clean and functional. Everything you need, nothing superfluous.

Ground floor on a quiet calle, close to everything (San Marco 10 minutes, Biennale 15) but in a silent residential area — and it suits anyone, not only artists

Yes — 22 square metres, a studio. Not large, but well organised: the bed, the kitchen, the bathroom, everything where it should be. If you’re looking for more space, Ca de la Cenise or Ca Melusina would be a better fit. This is for those who want to spend less and need the essentials.

Yes — paved, renovated, clean. Not an abandoned courtyard but a considered space with plants and a small table. Breakfast outside, working with a laptop, fresh air. Tucked away, so you have privacy and aren’t visible from the street.

For simple cooking, yes: hob, fridge, microwave, coffee machine. Breakfast, reheating, quick meals. If you want to cook regularly, one of our apartments with a fuller kitchen would be a better fit.

Fully self-managed with a keypad. You receive the code before arrival and can let yourself in whenever you like, between 12:00 and 20:00. For later arrivals, late check-in is available until 01:00 with a €20 supplement.
