Our host was great at sharing lots of activities and links of things to do and places to see around the city! He helped to book us taxis the day of our departure, which was so wonderful. We had a great meal at a small restaurant nearby the night before we left. It is a bit of a walk to get into the city, but the balcony make it worth our while to stay outside the hustle and bustle!
The apartment was nice and clean and bright, in the authentic part of Florence. (Note there are about 25 steps up to the apartment.) We loved the location with bus stops nearby, and grocery store and cafe bar directly across the street where we had morning cappuccinos and purchased our bus tickets for the day. Filippo was awesome, really helpful in showing us on a map all the points of interest to us. Also I appreciated his quick response to any questions we texted him about (not to mention he ordered taxis for us when needed).
The host was so amazing! He helped us navigate the city and made sure we were all comfortable! It was a beautiful place to stay with very comfortable beds. The major sites were all really close, we walked to most places.
A bit out of the activity of Florence but very walkable, 20 mins from Ponte Vecchio. This was a huge, comfortable apartment with multiple balconies. The beds are a bit uncomfortable but overall one of the best apartments we have stayed in during our trip to Italy. Filippo is the host and very friendly and communicates clearly and often. He makes many suggestions which help for first time travelers. Def recommend
This vrbo was really nice and exactly like the pictures, there was plenty of space for the 10 of us. The host shared plenty of information, the check in process was a little long but easy to do. Overall definitely recommend staying here!
What a gem! I can't recommend this property enough. Filippo is amazin resource for all your travel needs. There is a cafe, supermarket, restaurants and bus stops just steps from the front door. The apartment contains everything you need for a comfortable stay.
Our stay at Filippo's apartment was excellent. Where do I begin? To start, the welcome, checkin and information provided went above and beyond. Filippo is extremely friendly, responsive throughout our stay and so helpful. The apartment itself is huge (we rented the entire space, but I think you can just book one of the 3 rooms if you wish). Booking the entire aprtment felt like home with a kitchen, full separate dining and living room with a lovely wrap around balcony that overlooks the street and park across. It is perfect for a group or family. The bedrooms, bathrooms and living spaces were all clean and as a group of women, we felt super safe here. The location is ideal too with a big grocery a 2 minute walk away, a cafe across the street and many bus lines no more than 5 minute walk to get you anywhere in Florence. I can't say enough about the Residenza Oltrarno. We would absolutely stay here again. Grazie mille Filippo!

Amazing!!! Perfect for my large family. The hosts thought of everything to make us comfortable.
Can’t wait to return
Residenza Otlrarno is very spacious and well-appointed. We had no problems walking to restaurants, cafes, and the historic center. Uber also was available. Fillipo was extremely helpful! Grazie!
Our host was so helpful and friendly. He made special accommodations to meet our group as we arrived at different times. He spent a lot of time giving us recommendations to visit the city. The apartment was very clean and had everything we needed. Very close to the grocery store and a coffee shop. Walking distance to the sights or a 20 cab ride. Great pizza and coffee close by.
Amazingly helpful host! Gave us a complete check in of the premises as well as ideas for enjoying the beautiful city of Florence. Our accommodations were very clean, comfortable, and fully stocked with everything we needed. We couldn’t more highly recommend!!
A large apartment close to all attractions and good restaurants. Convenient to public transportation and supermarket. Our host provided a late check in and lots of information!!!
Definitely recommend this property
A feeling of neighborhood in busy Florence, we were delighted with our stay. The location was a 20-30 minute walk or taxi ride to all sights, with a convenient grocery store right down the street.

Great host. Lots of information provided. Great apartment with lots of space
We had the privilege of staying a week in Frienze region, in Florence. Location was perfect! Excellent access to roads, grocery, cafe, busses, and restaurants. Had a wonderful time all four of us. Very relaxing and great kitchen! Was like a home away from home.
A spectacular property in a less crowded neighborhood but an easy walk to central Florence.
Our host Filippo was so responsive on internet before our trip and sorted any problems and requests we had. He gave us a thorough orientation to the apartment and filled a local map with key info. The apartment is in a lovely older building across from a small park and within short walk of good food and large supermarket. Iris about a 25 minute walk along the Arno River to the Centre of old Florence Can’t say enough good things about this place.Tim and Irene
This was an absolutely breathtaking apartment inside. Our host was the most welcoming generous person. Very very very communicative suggested over 10 to 15 wonderful places to visit and eat. Looking forward to my next stay already!!
The apartment was perfect for our family's visit to Florence. Quite spacious and comfortable for the 5 of us. Filippo was incredibly helpful and made us feel immediately at home. He gave us great information that made our stay all the more enjoyable. We would love to stay there again the next time we return to Florence!
I highly recommend considering this spacious, charming apartment if you’re visiting Venice. The apartment is absolutely huge and could easily accommodate a large family or group traveling together. There are several great restaurants close by, a great little café just across the street, and easy access to public transportation. Filippo is an amazing host and can give you so many suggestions about what to see and do.
Felippo was a great host and gave us good advice about moving around the city and very easy to communicate with. The apartment was very big, old as everything is in Florence but at a good location and well maintained and equipped. It was a very good experience
I stayed here with my family and we each had our own space with a lot of room to get ready for the day. The terraces/balconies are beautiful and a great place to have your coffee or read a book. It helped that the city center was not a far walk either. Filippo was great with check-in, and made sure we had an itinerary for our week stay. We would come back again!!
Filippo is an attentive and available host. We were a group of 6 adults and were very comfortable in the apartment. The two balconies were perfect for morning coffee or evening drinks!
Wonderful property and location. It is located just over the bridge away from the middle of town and noise, but within walking distance of a grocery store, restaurants, and, of course, the museums and shopping. Our property manager Filippo was great and so helpful. The property was just as advertised, lots of room and two lovely balconies. We would definitely come back to stay next time we come to Florence.
