The Ponte Vecchio connects this area with the other side of the city and the Uffizi Gallery, Palazzo Vecchio and the Duomo are right on the other side. The streets of the Oltrarno are filled with fashion boutiques, jewellery designers, artisanal workshops, art galleries and typical markets. In the evening the area is populated with charming restaurants, cantinas and cafés where you can relax and taste Italian and international specialties.
Located in Borgo San Jacopo 6, at the corner of the Ponte Vecchio on the Oltrarno bank. It is unique for its location and its view on the Ponte Vecchio.

Amazing Stay in Florence

The property was well-managed, cleanly, and in a perfect location close to all the main sights and tucked away enough to avoid the crowds and noise. The host has a binder with a lot of excellent tips for the area. If I am lucky enough to travel to Florence again, I will definitely try to stay at this VRBO again!!

Home away from home!

This was our first trip to Florence and Cristiana made our stay sooo welcoming. The place is perfect with a view of the Arno River and Ponte Vecchio..close to dining and tourist options. Loved our stay here! Cristiana greeted us when we arrived and bid us farewell when we departed. She even ran to our bus stop on our departure when one of us forgot a cell phone on the side table. I would highly recommend this place. Will stay here if I return to Florence. Gracie Cristiana 🙏

Best Location in FLORENCE

We returned to this apartment because of the memories of the comfort and magnificent views but also because there's never enough time to experience all Florence has to offer. Cristiana is so warm and helpful and the apartment is well appointed and very clean. Every need is covered and it is so relaxing to have a home to come back to at the end of a wonderful day of being able to walk anywhere in town. Hopefully this won't be the last time spent here!

Highlight of our European vacation!

This place was stunning! Beautiful views of the Ponte Vecchio, right on the Arno River and right in the heart of any restaurant or shop you could ever need. The apt was very clean, had soft towels, crisp clean sheets and a fully stocked kitchen. Even a bottle of Prosecco waiting for us! Cristiana has an amazing eye for detail and made sure she was available if we needed her. This was the finest VRBO property we have stayed in! We will be back!

Beautiful Apartment on the Arno

We booked this apartment based on location, looks and previous reviews. It did not disappoint. Cristiana was an excellent host, meeting us at the apartment and going over everything with us (including maps, directions, etc.). The apartment was so clean and well maintained and the air conditioning was a plus with temps in the high 90s! Beds were very comfortable and the view was incredible. The apartment's location is perfect - close to everything. We only used a cab once to go to Piazzale Michaelangelo. This was a 5 star rental all the way and we'll definitely rent from Cristiana again!

Dreamy Florence Apartment

You couldn't ask for a more perfect and romantic location. The apartment is in a stunning location with amazing views of the Ponte Vecchio bridge. You will love being able to watch both the sunrises over the bridge and the sunsets off to the west over the hills from your quaint balconies without having to worry about the crowds. The location is superb and in great proximity to all the great places in Florence. We especially liked that a well stocked supermarket was steps away so we could pick up meal items and wine easily. Christiana, the owner, is so easy to work with and made sure we had everything we needed, and answered any question we had. The apartment itself is perfect for a family, and offers everything you could need. I would highly recommend this rental as a perfect place to stay while vacationing in Florence!

Excellent property!!! Highly recommend!!!

We just stayed in this lovely apartment April 1st-6th. Cristina was wonderful to work with! Always very prompt in answering emails and met us a apartment to explain everything and give recommendations for Florence restaurants and things to do. Apartment was very well appointed with everything you need for an enjoyable stay. The apartment was also very clean, you can tell Cristina takes pride in this apartment. Location could not be better! Great views of the Ponte Vecchio and lovely to be able to listen to the musicians that often play on the bridge at night. Grocery store just around the corner was very convenient. Great restaurants nearby and a fun wine store just down the street. Looking forward to our next visit to this amazing city and hoping to rent this same apartment again! Thanks Cristina for making this apartment feel like our Florence home!

The apartment is beautiful, clean, and has all the amenities you would need. The view from the master bedroom and the living room is breath taking! The location is perfect, lots of restaurants, coffee shops and stores right outside the building door. The Uffizi is but a 5 minute walk.
