Wonderful location for exploring Florence

This is an excellent location to stay while in Florence. It was away from the main tourist areas but close enough that they were walkable. Rocco is an excellent host and this might also be the cutest vacation rental my wife and I have stayed in. If you want a great place to relax, it also has the added benefit of it being in the middle of a quiet garden in the middle of the city. We will definitely stay here again the next time in Florence.

Magical place for two

We spent 3 weeks in this adorable greenhouse. Corinna was an outstanding host. It was a perfect size for my husband and I. We still are talking about how adorable this place was, a week after leaving it. I would highly recommend this place to anyone going to Florence. Lori

Private oasis

Was a perfect spot far away from the summer crowds! I loved the outside space…especially taking my afternoon nap under the big shady tree! Easy to get to everything and very quiet! Check in was a breeze. It does get pretty light inside super early…recommend bringing an eye mask if you like to sleep in.

Wonderful quiet area with a beautiful back yard

Corrina and Rocco were very helpful and always replied to messages. We enjoyed the quiet and greenery after the hustle and bustle of Down town Florence. We had everything we needed, including a washing machine and drying rack. We had the chance to meet Corrina and thoroughly enjoyed our visit with her. The main attractions are all within walking distance. We would love to come and stay again!

Just Perfect!

This little apartment was just perfect for me and my husband. The location is just perfect too, tucked in a sweet little neighborhood. Within walking distance through the ancient streets of Florence to all museums and amazing restaurants. The apartment is very clean and comfortable and well equipped with everything we could possibly need. We were thankful to the washer! Rocco is a wonderful host, checking in and giving us contact information if anything is needed. I love Florence and would love to visit again and stay in this beautiful location.

A Tuscan treasure!

My only regret about my stay here is that it was too short. The host was magnificent, and the property was a dream come true.Across the street are a rose garden and a Japanese garden, and the street itself leads right to an opening in the wall and just a short dogleg to a bridge into the city center.

Words can't describe how awesome this place is! It is mere minutes from everything. When you type the code and the gate opens you feel you're stepping into the countryside, walk down a dirt lane to this idylic setting from which you can see the tower!- The bed is comfy, pillows fluffy, the kitchen small but 100% workable (we made a meal for 4 to eat in the garden).- There is a microwave - yay!- The bathroom is quite small but 100% fine - the shower folds out (very cool) but might be tight for a larger human.Suggestions: - Ice trays please! :-)- Maybe 2 more chairs for the outside table if one has friends over (our son and friend came to visit).Also - Bring bug spray!! There's a lot of mozzies all over Italy.Having lunch with family under the vines in the garden was magical.

L appartement est toujours très bien et très propre, la terrasse et le jardin super. L emplacement est ideal pour tout faire à pied.Nous avons été déçu de ne voir personne ni à l arrivée ni au depart.Le côté convivial que nous avions apprécié lors de notre 1er sejour a disparu...Extérieurs pouvant maintenant être plus bruyants dus à la proximité d autres locations

Si vous recherchez un havre de paix, un bout de paradis, à deux pas d'un veritable musée à ciel ouvert, poussez la porte de chez Rocco !! En couple, nous avons profité de quelques jours ensoleillés à Firenze, et la location de Rocco s'est révélée être la cerise sur le gâteau !!Un petit cocon très bien agencé, une terrasse et un tres beau jardin (avec oliviers, citronniers, romarin...).Que rêver de plus ?!!Nous reviendrons, c'est sûr !!

A wonderful stay

A beautiful and peaceful stay very close to the Piazzale Michelangelo. I slept better here than in my hotels in Milano and Venice. Rocco was a great host, very responsive and helpful. I loved waking up in the sunlight but bring a sleep mask if you want to sleep in. :)
