About this property

PEACEFUL OASIS IN THE HEART OF FLORENCE

  • The "palazzo" was built around 1200.The apartment has been completely renovated but it has kept its old flavour and character. It has one living room full of light with armchairs, dining table ,a furnished kitchen with fridge, microwave, dishwasher, washing machine, Nespresso, french press and italian coffee machine. There are 2 bedrooms with big beds and 2 complete bathrooms (one is attached to the bedroom and the other one just in front of the second bedroom) , a small balcony, AC in each room, central heating, free wi fi, . It's located on the 2nd floor but there is a lift (which is very unusual in Florence).The decoration is a mix of antique, ethnic and modern pieces; art books.The floor and the ceilings are made of wood with delicate pastel colors. Linens and towels are furnished. I also provide basic amenities (coffee, teas, sugar, sicilian olive oil house made etc...)

    You are right in the heart of Santa croce neighbourhood, 5 minutes walk from the main sightseeings. There is a grocery store close by and a street full of coffee shops and nice restaurants.

    It is also very quiet . Good nights sleep is secured!

The apartment was as described in VRBO - two bedrooms, two bathrooms, and a very spacious living room / kitchen area. Everything was in close walking distance - historical sites, shops and restaurants. Arrival and departure was smooth. Marie gave us all of the necessary details to go right into the apartment with no waiting time and it was just as easy to check out.

Very assessable to city center historic sites. walk to Florence

Everything very close by, we used the hop on hop off bus to get around and to go up to the beautiful city of Fiesole and had lunch. The next day we had our own walking tour that we made up and we had a wonderful day. We also found very nice places to eat. We loved Florence!

Charming Tuscany

The apartment was spacious and had a charming Tuscan flair. The kitchen was well equipped and a good size as,was the seating area. It was situated on a quiet residental street away from the rush of people and traffic, but easily within walking distance to all the historic sights. I would definitely stay there again if in Florence

Great Location

Enjoyed staying here. Very clean, quiet, and plenty of space. Central location to the historic sites. It was a bit of a walk from the train station but we managed. Would stay here again. If you reserve the property make sure you review how to get into the apartment with the host before arriving. It’s a rather involved process.

Charming flat, great location and lovely host.

I can’t say enough great things about this location and apartment. It is quiet and easy access to everything. I was in Florence a week before and stayed in the Savoy Hotel ( room was very small), and it was noisy at times. This apartment was so clean and spacious and very quiet. Close to grocery store, and steps away from cafes. Anytime I had a question Marie was very quick to respond. We will definitely stay here again. AC was good, in all areas of the home.

Beautiful Florence home!

Pros: - Very quiet - Beautiful rooms and bathrooms - Love the showers - AC is fantastic and works great - Close to all the major sights - Elevator - Marie was so helpful and fantastic Cons: - gnats in the kitchen (brought it up to the owner and she was helpful in trying to remedy it) - Check in was incorrect on VRBO. Message Marie before your visit. The instructions were missing a part.

Five star perfection in Firenze

This property was fabulous. The location was absolutely perfect, 5 minute walk to the Piazza Della Signoria, 10 minutes to the Duomo. The kitchen was beautifully done with beautiful tile and plentiful glasses, espresso machine, etc. The layout was perfect for 2 couples traveling together. It was 90 degrees F during our stay but the shutters kept out the heat nicely, plus the AC worked wonderfully when we needed a bit more. The coffee shop on the corner was lovely, an operational wine window around the corner and a lovely gelateria just a few paces away. The host was lovely and communication was great. Thank you, we will absolutely be back!

Wonderful home base in Florence. Great location to explore the city. The apartment had everything necessary for a comfortable and easy stay. Note the elevator is helpful but small. This isn’t a place to tote a ton of luggage but great if you’re traveling lightly.

Very beautifully furnished house with everything you might need! It was steps from the pool and a one minute walk to the beach. And you have access to management 24/7 via text if needed! I’ve stayed just about everywhere along 30A and this area was the perfect spot for a family trip with my wife and son, my sister’s family and kids, and our parents in their late 60s. Highly recommend!

Lovely apartment. Centrally located. Great host.

Marie was so knowledgeable about the area and very accomodating with check-in/out, amenities, and general information. The apartment is beautiful and spacious, centrally located to reach the major sights in Florence but equally easy to get outside the "tourist bubble" from this spot. We stayed in this location with a group of four and it was perfect for that. Would definitely stay here again in any case. (Thanks for everything Marie!)

The apartment is beautifully located between the Piazza Signoria and Santa Croce, within easy walking distance of the usual sites. (Like all sensible older people, we took a cab up to San Miniato and walked back down and another to a nice restaurant. Otherwise, we walked.) The elevator is small but useful for bags and groceries. The light in the morning is lovely. The kitchen has what one needs to cook simple meals (and there's a Conad store for tourist basics very close by), and we did cook pasta-ands-sauce a couple of evenings. The bathrooms are a decent size; the bed was comfortable. Our host, Marie, met us when we arrived and went over the keys and elevator. All very smooth.

Perfect place and location

Our family of 4 loved this place. More than enough room for all of us . Tons of character and all of the amenities worked without one issue. A 2 minute walk to an amazing coffee shop with pastries. 10 minutes to the main square with tons of restaurants to choose from for a drink or longer stays. Our trip was somewhat busy but wish we stayed there longer. 2 thumbs up x 4 from us all! Loved it!!
