We stayed here for our honeymoon and it was incredible! The house, the outside, the location, everything was better than we could have imagined! The host is so nice and helpful! We will definitely be back again
We came to Florence for our 30th anniversary and we found it to be a great choice!
Stayed 4 nights and Davide was a fabulous host. Extremely responsive and helpful. Book it!

Does not have a pool, as listed, but does have a hot tub. Hosts, especially Davide, were great and extremely helpful. Noisy outside dur to street traffic, but we got used to it and it faded. Well kept vrbo. Good price
Location de standing, accueil chaleureux, proximité des sites patrimoniaux et boutiques de Florence. Location tres bien équipée, décoration faite avoir beaucoup de goût.
Nous reviendrons!
The property and house are spacious, clean, private and comfortable. Great outdoor space to unwind after a long day.
The location is the highlight of this listing. Close enough to all of Florence’s attractions- but far enough to enjoy nature. If you don’t mind biking or walking - this listing is ideal.
