Ca’ Del Monastero 9
Introducing the very special Ca’ Del Monastero - a fine antique residence comprising 9 superbly restored apartments of varying size (including Ca’ Del Monastero 9 - see its dedicated section below) situated in what was once the monastery connected to the ancient Church of San Degolà (one of the oldest in Venice), moments from the Grand Canal in the district of Santa Croce.
Enjoying an atmosphere of calm serenity in what must surely be one of Venice’s most evocative and unspoilt neighbourhoods - indeed a step back in time - the Ca’ Del Monastero apartments offer spacious and beautifully presented accommodation for small and medium size parties or up to 38 guests if taken together.*
No expense has been spared in its recent remodelling…
Carefully co-ordinated contemporary furnishings and soft neutral colours meld seamlessly against a traditional backdrop of polished red marble and/or traditional Venetian terrazzo flooring, while stylish high-spec fittings and attractive finishes, such as textured resin walls and luxurious feature wall coverings, give a fresh and fashionable twist to the building’s ancient framework.
Enhanced by a range of up-to-date facilities as demanded by today’s savvy traveller (including air-conditioning***, Wi-Fi internet connection and communal utility facilities), the Ca’ Del Monastero apartments are perfectly placed for communing with the true and heart and soul of the city and for visiting all that Venice has to offer while providing all the comforts of modern city living.

Spoil yourself rotten in this seductive new penthouse kitted out in such style that you’ll never want to leave!
A striking addition to the fabulous Monastero family – with real personality and chock-full of charm – Ca’ Del Monastero 9 sleeps 4 guests in surroundings where the ancient and contemporary link together as one.
Recently refurbed in such a way as to blend seamlessly into the overall aesthetic of the residence, and displaying a novel and imaginative approach to layout and functionality, the apartment is reached by taking a lift to the second floor, followed by two short staircases rising to meet you from the splendid communal entrance on the ground floor below.
Prepare to be bowled over as you step across the threshold into this handsome Santa Croce ‘home-from-home-with-a-heart’, where ruggedly hewn timbers soar overhead, russet red marble gleams with mirror-like effect, and comfortreigns supreme.
A clever re-configuration of the plentiful space, accommodation comprises a stylish and cosy main sitting room/TV area* in lavender blue and with elephant grey seating beneath sloping eaves and, just to the side, a well-equipped kitchen/breakfast area* with all mod cons.
A modern chandelier-lit dining area with a dining suite for 4 plus a small relaxation area lies just beyond, and to either side, Ca’ Del Monastero 9’s bright and radiant dual-aspect double bedrooms designed along clean lines and each separated from the dining area by a sliding partition** - one with a double bed, and the other with two singles which can be converted into a double bed upon your request.
And completing the accommodation at the opposite end of the apartment - a handy cloakroom, and two spotless and equally well-designed bathrooms, one with a bathtub* and separate shower and the other with a shower.
* Please consult the photo gallery carefully for an idea of the sloping ceilings/restricted headspace present in certain areas of the apartment
** Please bear in mind if seeking absolute privacy that these partitions do not reach full ceiling height!
Our Comment
Style, creature comforts and history combined, in an area brimming with local flavour.
Within easy walking distance of Venice’s Santa Lucia Railway Station and Piazzale Roma if travelling light, and even closer to the vaporetto (waterbus) stops at Riva di Biasio and San Stae on the Grand Canal for hassle-free travel around the city.
And so much to see and do right on your doorstep…
Moments to Campo San Giacomo Dell’ Orio - one of Venice’s most charming ‘away from the crowds’ tree-filled squares and home to a well-stocked Coop supermarket and nearby local shops - and a short walk to a Conad supermarket on the Rio Marin canal.
Close to a great variety of cafes, bars and eateries including All’ Anfora, La Zucca, Il Refolo, Al Prosecco and Antica Besseta to name but a few, and within minutes of the Ca’ Pesaro International Gallery of Modern Art, Palazzo Mocenigo at San Stae (Museum of the History of Fabrics, Costumes and Perfumes) and the Fondazione Prada at Ca’ Corner Della Regina.
