About this property

Florence Luxury apartment in Historic center - Oltrarno

Wonderful apartment, with attention to detail, warm, welcoming, bright and spacious.
Two double bedrooms, a nice lounge and a perfect kitchen equipped with every comfort. Romantic terrace over the roofs of Florence, ideal for spring / summer dinners.
An absolutely gorgeous apartment in the center of the best neighborhood of Florence. The brand new design furniture and beautiful fixtures make this a wonderful, comfortable apartment to enjoy our fantastic city of Florence!

Located in the fabulous, unspoiled artisanal quarter, you can experience a true taste of Florentine life. Surrounded by great local restaurants, art studios, individual shops, vintage shops, fresh grocery stores and organic shops, daily and weekly markets.

The Holy Spirit Square is a couple of minutes stroll, one of the most beautiful squares in Italy, with pavement cafes, lively bars, and inexpensive and excellent restaurants. Here is a thriving and ecstatic community of locals, artists, expats and a friendly and happy Vibe.
The other side of the river - the North side, is far more touristy and more expensive while this unspoiled authentic neighborhood is the 'real' Florence and a truly beautiful experience (we live this side too!). A wonderful retreat in the heart of the renaissance!

Large & comfortable apartment

We enjoyed our stay here very much. Great neighborhood, large apartment with plenty of space. Easy walk over the bridge into the heart of Florence, and the best restaurants are on the Oltrarno side of the river.

Convenient and Quiet

This is a great spot just across the river and away from the crowds and noise of the historic area. That said it is just a short walk to everything. Our host was wonderful and very helpful in guiding us to great places to eat. We had a very busy but enjoyable time!

Not what it promised to be…!

The appartement was really not clean! The contact persoon startend to clean as we checked in, because she was embarrassed!The little terras on the pictures… is a real dirty mess!WiFi is poor! The air conditioning- only in the bedrooms- doesn’t really cool off when it’s hot.There are no international channels on the tv.If they put more effort in the overall ambiance and the cleanliness, this could be a top property.The best was its location.We will NOT rent it again, unless some improvements are made. So sorry!

Wonderful Florentine neighborhood

The property was beautiful and accurately shown by the photos. We appreciated the washing machine and other conveniences provided.The best part was being away from the tourist area of Florence and watching the store owners, school kids and families go about their daily lives. The bus stop is directly in front of the property which took us directly to the train station.

The apartment in Florence is wonderful. We hope to go back. Location is exceptional, beautiful kitchen, large bedrooms and living room. Viviana goes over and above. She took the time to tell us about places to go, walks and great restaurants. She helped us arrange taxis to and from the airport and to the bus station for a Siena side trip. I cannpt praise this accommodation and Viviana enough.

Little oasis in Florence

If you are looking to relax and take a break from hotel stays, this is your place in Florence. The apartment is exactly as the photos portray, very spacious, comfortable and in a gem of a neighbourhood. There are excellent restaurants nearby and it is an easy and interesting walk into the centre of Florence, passing many shops, restaurants and even the Babae wine window along the way. The kitchen is well equipped and we started our day with a good cup of coffee and fresh groceries from the store just around the corner. We even did some laundry while there. Valentina and Viviana were both excellent to communicate with and we had no issues with booking, obtaining information or accessing the unit. If we are fortunate enough to return to Florence, we will definitely choose to stay here again.

Firenze vacation without the crowds

Wonderful area to stay. Away from crowds. Fabulous restaurants with authentic Florentino fare. Valentina and Viviane lovely people to deal with. The apartment was as shown on the vrbo site. Two small notes the apartment is up two flights of stairs .. no elevator... so pack suitcases accordingly and accept that you are living in an apartment environment. We recommend this location.

Florence family of 4

Very nice apartment with plenty of space for our family of 4. Host was very helpful with check in, explaining the location, providing recommendations and helping with taxi to airport. Location is a bit tucked away from the heart and tourist attractions of Florence but still not too far to walk to everything. Washer on the balcony and also a laundromat with washer and dryer next door. Good a/c in bedrooms. There is a small market close by. The unit is on 2nd floor, walk up only, narrow stairs.

Even better than expected

We are seasoned travellers and always rent an apartment for our stays. The Oltrarno area has always been our preferred location in Firenze. Because we cook most of our meals the kitchen facilities are important to us. I emailed Valentina before our arrival to ask if the cucina was well equipped. She said yes and indeed it was. Our three nights were terrific, the apartment spotless, beds extremely comfortable and linens were fresh. It was a relief to return to the casa after a long day of walking to find a quiet, spacious place to relax. The outdoor terrace, important to us, was well used. We contacted the owners a couple of times with questions and their response was immediate. Could not ask for more. We would return without hesitation as all of our expectations were met and more. Thanks for a terrific mini holiday. Margaret, Antonio, Deb and Robin

Great location

The location of the apartment is not in the crowded tourist area, but close enough to walk to most of the major attractions. A real plus was the proximity to some very good restaurants. We would have given this review five stars except for a couple of things we found lacking. We had to hand wash most of the dishes that we used, as they did not appear to have been washed thoroughly. It could be that they had been run though the dishwasher, but had not been rinsed well first. Also, we found the smoke detector, which was listed as a safety feature, in a drawer in the kitchen. Even if it had been in its mounting bracket on the wall, it would not have passed inspection, because the mounting bracket was fastened about 6 feet up the wall and not far from the stove. There should have been three of four mounted near the ceiling in the hallway of the sleeping area, and in each bedroom. A fourth star was added back to the review due to the hospitality of Vivian, who greeted us and gave us a great deal of information that was useful.

Great location, just outside the tourist zone.

It was a pleasant experience with a few areas that could use improvement. The location is fantastic, with top-rated restaurants just steps away, making dining out incredibly convenient. The home itself offers plenty of space, which was perfect for our group as we never felt cramped and had ample room to relax. However, there were a few downsides. The Wi-Fi only worked reliably in the living room, which wasn’t a huge issue for us, but it might be frustrating if you’re planning to work from different parts of the house, like the kitchen table or the bedroom. Additionally, the property could benefit from a deep clean. The floors were dusty, and walking around barefoot left our feet quite dirty. The couches have covers that could use a good wash, and the throw pillows are definitely past their prime. The property is managed by a large rental company, which seems to be becoming more common. While this ensures a certain level of service, it also means the personal touches you might expect from an individual host aren’t as present. With some simple upgrades and a thorough cleaning, this place could easily earn a five-star rating. Despite these issues, the location and spaciousness make this property a solid choice, especially if you plan to spend most of your time out exploring the area. With a bit more attention to detail, it has the potential to be truly exceptional.
