Kid-friendly vacation rentals in Dorsoduro, 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.

We loved the place! Charming and well appointed and mostly perfect location. The roof terrace made it the most perfect!

Great find, right in the centre of the city. A wonderful choice for where to spend your days in Venice.

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

A wonderful place to stay for a Venice trip. We loved this peaceful neighborhood and the quirky, cozy attic apartment - an authentic Venetian experience. Angela the caretaker welcomed us warmly and Barbara sent very helpful instructions. We wish we were staying longer!

My family absolutely loved our stay here! Valentina & Andrea were amazing hosts. They were so kind and attentive and helped us with everything we needed and more. The place exceeded our expectations! It was very clean and well equipped. We got to start our mornings with a tasty espresso. The decor was beautiful and the view was just stunning! Murano was peaceful compared to Venice, which we loved. We can't wait to come back here again, wish we could have stayed longer! Thank you to the amazing hosts for your kindness and hospitality :) Do not hesitate to book this place you won't regret it.

Ca' Tintor in Venice was a truly delightful Airbnb stay, perfect for families. The apartment was impeccably clean and incredibly well-organised, boasting all the amenities one could possibly need with kids, from the hob and oven to a dishwasher, washing machine, and a perfectly working air conditioning unit. Its location is fantastic, nestled in a beautiful residential area with easy access to Piazzale Roma and the railway station, making it convenient for exploring with little ones. The host's dedication to preserving Venetian history, as evidenced by the ancient dyer basins found during redecoration, and their commitment to modern comfort and environmental responsibility through the heat pump system, truly stood out. I highly recommend this superb apartment for a wonderful stay in Venice with your family.

The accommodation is in a very good location, it is clean, the bedding is very comfortable. The neighborhood is quiet so pleasant, few tourists, and ideally located to enjoy excellent restaurants nearby. The welcome was just great, clear explanations, the host really took the time to show 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 to drop off our suitcases while waiting for our late check-out! Excellent accommodation in every way

Letizia’s apartment was perfect. Tucked away in a quiet spot but minutes away from transport and tourist spots. It was tastefully decorated and well thought out with a well equipped kitchen. The tiny terrace was perfect for sitting out and watching the swallows fly past in the evening. The bed was large and comfortable and there was plenty of space for clothes. Would definitely recommend and we may well return.

Lovely apartment, well furnished and equipped. Overhead shower head in en-suite not working. Air conditioning in living area only. At night windows had to be open in bedrooms - mosquito repelllant plug-ins provided essential. Very early (05.00hrs) noise from workmen on the canals below. All part of the charm and character of Venice! Would book again and recommend to friends.

Excellent accommodation! Isabella was extremely helpful before our trip promptly providing all the information and assistance we needed. The apartment was lovely and clean. We really loved the location in the Dorsoduro, close to everything but in a quieter area of Venice. The restaurant next door was superb, with a beautiful garden, great food and friendly service. We will definitely stay in Isabella’s AirBnB if our travels bring us to Venice again!

Favorite for this accommodation which is in front of the pier that leads to the airport and the various activities of Venice, it's a great little piece of heaven!

We had a truly wonderful stay at Luca’s place — a serene, beautifully kept apartment that felt like a quiet breath of Venice itself. Tucked away from the crowds yet just minutes from the heart of the city, it offered the perfect balance of calm and access. The space was spotless, thoughtfully laid out, and full of natural light — a rare find in the historic maze of Venice. Luca was gracious, responsive, and genuinely welcoming. There was something quietly magical about returning to this apartment after a day of exploring — as if we were living not just in Venice, but with it. Highly recommended for travelers who seek a sense of place, warmth, and a bit of understated charm. Grazie, Luca — we’ll be back.

Aglaia’s apartment is beautiful! It is in a wonderful location: very near restaurants, a grocery store, banking, and walkable from the train station. She is a wonderful host who gave us personalized recommendations for fun things to do with our young children and kept in touch with us throughout the stay. I highly recommend this apartment!

We (a family with two teenagers, 13 and 15) loved Laura’s apartment! The beds are all comfortable, there’s all you need in the kitchen (also a dishwasher with tabs), the deco is nice, there’s the luxury of two bathrooms, it was very clean and the location in Dorsoduro, our favorite Venice sestiere, is fantastic - just across a bridge to Campo Santa Margherita but very quiet thanks to the position in a peaceful courtyard. Would love to stay there again!

Had a wonderful stay, was able to walk the city and enjoy everything Venice had to offer. Apartment was clean and bigger than expected.

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.

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

Petra’s place was great, the location was convenient and the renovated apartment had great AC with all the appliance and furnishings we needed.

Great location and very nice place. Had to climb some stairs but we didn’t mind and that’s Italy! Host deserves more than 5 stars for communication, he was excellent. And he arranged an early 6:30am water taxi and chauffered Mercedes to the airport which was a great way to end our vacation leaving the island in style!

It was even more wonderful than we expected. The location, so close to the grand canal, yet so quiet, wonderful local places to eat, breakfast through dinner and into the late evening... Absolutely worth every penny. Recommend highly! It was my fourth trip to Venice, my husband's first. I wanted something wonderful for him on our 25th wedding anniversary trip and he loved it!

Truly the most perfect stay we’ve ever had. Donatella is the most thoughtful and helpful host we’ve ever experienced. From the time we booked, she stayed in touch to help with documents, transfers, and gave amazing suggestions for sights and restaurants. Her assistant Chiara was equally wonderful, texting us before arrival and meeting us with a warm welcome that instantly put us at ease. The apartment was spotless and beautiful, in the peaceful art district but still walking distance to everything. The rooftop terrace had unforgettable views of the canals and Basilica di Santa Maria della Salute. Donatella even left gifts for our wives which meant so much. As first-time visitors from the US, we were anxious about the unknown, but Donatella and Chiara made it easy and stress-free. We are already planning our return. If you are lucky enough to book this place, do it without hesitation. This is where you want to stay in Venice. The best Airbnb experience we have ever had, without question
