Bellisimo!

Serena the host was great. The apartment is located on the top floor of the building, and there are two patios and a balcony all of which had such beautiful views of Florence.

Amazing views

Great location and views. Bed was comfortable, nice shower and bathroom. Kitchen small but never used. Views are worth the money.

Great Stay

We really enjoyed the stay. I would suggest that anyone with heart issues consider a different location. The location is up hill, then the apartment is at the top of the building. We did not recognize the elevator (lift) at first so took the stairs with our luggage in the beginning. It was pretty rough coming in late at night. BUT that should not detract from the overall beauty of the location. If we’re doing a longer stay in Florence 3-4 days, I would definitely return to this property.

Nice place but VERY uphill

We were not told about the exact location that it was an extremely long walk uphill. Hard for taxis to get to the place. I curtains on the windows so no privacy. Everyone could see in. The location was good and close to everything it’s just the apartment was up a VERY steep hill.

Great spot in Florence

My wife and I had a great time. The apartments location is perfect steps away from the Pontiac yell and the Palazzo Pitti. Close to shops, restaurants and wine windows. The accommodations were perfect. If there was a problem, it was the mosquitoes. We couldn’t find where they were coming from. Views of the city from the penthouse were stunning. Thank you for allowing us access would definitely recommend.

Look no further for the perfect stay in Florence

Serena’s apartment in Oltrarno is one of the best VRBO experiences of our travels. First of all, the location is excellent. Located just steps from the Main Street with near by market to stock your pantry with breakfast items and local foods. Near Signorvino wine bar & bistro where you can purchase wine and enjoy a meal on the Arno. The apartment is spacious and comfortable with excellent views of the Duomo & Palazzo Vecchio. Easy walk across Ponte Vecchio to the historic center. Easy 3 minute walk to Pitti Palace & Boboli Gardens. Three private terraces are perfect for enjoying coffee in the morning and wine for sunset. Serena is very quick to communicate and answer any questions about the area. The apartment is immaculately clean. There is a lift to the apartment to bring the luggage. There is a washing machine which helped as this was the first 6 days of our 25 day stay in Italy. The kitchen has coffee machine and kettle and all you would need to prepare a meal (we didn’t but it would be easy). The bed and bath are roomy and comfortable. We highly recommend this for your stay in Florence. It makes a great homeBase for exploring Pisa, Siena and beyond by train.

Wonderful place with a fantastic patio. Enjoyed the location and access. The bedroom air conditioning was not working properly (there is a second unit in the living room), but other than that, we had everything we needed. We will definitely recommend the apartment.

Even better than anticipated

This property is simply amazing. The views are even better than the pictures. The location is about as good as you can get - central to everything Florence related but off the path enough to where you’re not around too many crowds. Everything is incredible clean and the interior decorating makes you feel as though you’re living as a local. And lastly, the rooftop terrace provided the perfect backdrop for a surprise proposal. Cannot recommend enough!

Incredible views!

The apartment has the most incredible views! The balcony/rooftop are such a highlight and my toddler son just loved the little rooftop pool which was such a nice relief for hot days! We parked nearby at Garage Lungarno which was just a few minute walk but do beware that to get to the street the apartment is on you have to walk up a set of stairs - this was not a problem for us but May be difficult if you have mobility problems or a ton of luggage. The actual apartment has an elevator which is great. Would recommend this place to family and friends!

Breath taking views

Fantastic location with 3 balconies overlooking the city. Spacious and clean, great bed. Full kitchen and large fridge. Only minor is parking. We had to park in the street, not sure if we would get a ticket…

Amazing views!

I stayed at this apartment for 30 days and enjoyed every minute! The views from every room were picturesque! Serena assisted with translation and coordination of our lost luggage from the airlines and saved the day as well as cleaning service and all coordination needed for my stay. Kitchen was equipped with everything I needed and the washer/dryer worked great. The pictures don’t do it justice, more updates inside but they kept the original kitchen. Would definitely return! Keep in mind, there are steps or a hill to get to the entrance of the building. Worth it to justify gelato nightly.

A Beautiful Stay!

Our 4 days in Florence were absolutely spectacular...and to make everything even more perfect was our stay at this beautiful apartment. The location was perfect and close to everything. The views from the terraces were spectacular. The apartment itself was beautiful and roomy. And finally the communication from start to finish with Serena was seamless! We would recommend staying here to any friends and family that were going to come to Florence! Thanks for the hospitality! Frank and Vicki

Beautiful oasis after a busy day visiting sites

The views from the property are wonderful - a camera can’t capture how close the Palazzo Vecchio and Duomo are. Lovely bathroom, and comfortable bed. We loved dining looking at the lights come on all over Florence. Communication was easy. Thank you Serena for an unforgettable stay.

Phenomenal Property

Only able to stay for a couple nights but will definitely stay again whenever we return to Florence. It’s only a 5-7 minute walk to the Ponte Vecchio. LOTS of shopping just down the street but very quiet neighborhood. The check in process was very easy and the lift helps with getting the bags to the top. I had to put 4 stars for the “accuracy of online listing” but that was I my because they got rid of the hot tub. Overall this is maybe one of the best places I’ve stayed at on VRBO.

360 Views of Florence, With Duomo As The Star

Best VRBO experience by far. Huge, remodeled (except kitchen) apt. with tall ceilings, big, new windows to bring in the views and keep out the noise. You’ll want to spend much of your time outside on any of the three private terraces. Updated electrical and huge TV a bonus. Our only regret, was I made an error on date when I booked and we had 5 nights instead of 6, my mistake. I would recommend for a couple that can handle stairs and thresholds. There is a small elevator. This was no problem for us. I wish I could post pictures of the beautiful sunsets!

Not portrayed as in photos

Although the property has spectacular views and quiet neighborhood, the pictures in the listing need to be updated. The kitchen is the only room, inside or outside, with accurate photos. There is nowhere to place luggage besides the floor. The description of the sleeping accommodations is not accurate, for there is only one king size bed which is vey comfortable, but no linens available for the sleeper sofa. Instructions for the washer/dryer in English would be much appreciated.
