Step into Apartment San Lio, a captivating Venetian retreat where history and maritime charm blend seamlessly. Nestled within a beautifully restored 15th–18th-century residence in Venice’s Castello district, this unique home is the creation of two experienced superyacht captains. Every detail of its design showcases their passion for seafaring elegance, providing an experience that is both sophisticated and imaginative.
The apartment spans multiple levels, accommodating six guests in three ensuite bedrooms, each with its own nautical theme. From the elegant Captain’s Suite to the grand Admiral’s Suite and the duplex Commodore’s Suite with mezzanine and canal views, every room is richly appointed and full of character. The central living area features vintage ship fittings, a brass-clad bar, and an array of maps, while a private balcony offers views of the gondola-filled Rio di San Lio. Below, the ‘Crew Tavern’ is a cosy, wood-beamed den with a bar, fireplace, pool table, and cinema screen, perfect for relaxed evenings or lively gatherings. Just steps from Rialto and St. Mark’s, yet wonderfully private, San Lio is a true Venetian adventure.
