Even though Venice is a dream vacation for many, the cost of a trip there is less than ideal. Though the city is home to shopping malls, hotels, famous landmarks, and must-try food, everything is expensive. This is where Airbnb comes in handy. With the increasing prominence of Airbnb properties, it is easy to find accommodation for a fraction of a hotel’s price. And Venice is no exception.

As a major tourist destination, Venice has countless Airbnb rentals spread out all over the island. Not only do you get the benefits of lower cost, but you also get the full experience of living like a local Venetian. But it is important to note that most Airbnbs listed below do not include Venice’s tourist tax of 1.50 EUR (1.70 USD) per person per night for up to five nights (no tax from the sixth night). The hosts will most likely ask for this fee to be paid in cash at check-in. Some of the apartments listed below are rare finds, so if there is one you like available on the dates you plan to visit, book it as soon as possible! Keep reading for a rundown of the top Airbnbs in Venice.

Tip from tour guide

Murano Glass Island

While in the city, make sure to head to Murano Glass Island where you can make your own Venetian bead to take home. You can also witness the lampwork tradition in the glass factories here depending on the time of your visit. What's more, the churches here are adorned with 12th-century Byzantine-style mosaics that are definitely worth your attention.

26. Spacious apartment with park view (Venetian-style) (From 149 USD)

Living area in Spacious Apartment with Park View (Venetian-Style)
Source: Airbnb

“Beautiful Venetian house with high ceilings and lots of character in walking distance from the station. Very quiet & peaceful and overlooks a park. Highly recommended, great apartment.” Sander
This listing is a huge 3-bedroom Venetian house with retro furnishings that will give you a sense of comfort and make you feel more at home after a long day. It is also located in a neighborhood where only local Venetians live and that tourists rarely visit. The neighborhood environment, along with the interior décor of the house, is the most local experience you could possibly encounter during your visit. But note that even though the starting price is low, there is a 37 USD per night charge after 2 guests, which may add up if you are traveling with a huge group.

With its classic décor and warm tones, this traditional Venetian apartment lets you feel as though you are a local. The apartment is very close to the Grand Canal, but on a quiet street away from the crowded tourist areas. If you’re looking to have some fun at night, the Casino of Venice is located right in front. And if you’re not keen on that type of fun, you can spend a relaxing night in the apartment, where the kitchen and living room overlooks a private courtyard. The extra fee for having more than 2 guests is 17 USD per night per person.

28. Budget-friendly apartment near train station (From 113 USD)

“Nice house! 10 mins walking from railway station which is very easy for carring luggage. Clean and warm decoration.” Min
Venice is full of small apartments that are perfect for small groups of people. But it is not easy to find places big enough to accommodate more, especially when there are more than 5 people. This house is one of the rare finds, making it a great housing option for a large group of friends traveling together. Despite being further away from the tourist attractions, it is very close to Venezia Santa Lucia train station, which is useful if you are arriving by train and have lots of luggage with you. Even with the additional 29 USD per night charge after 4 guests, the cost for 8 people to stay here is very inexpensive, perfect for a budget-friendly vacation.
