The most adorable VRBO in the best location in Florence! Perfect for our family of four. Walkable to all the sites but tucked away enough to feel quaint, safe and quiet. Highly recommend!
We loved the location of this property in the heart of Florence. The property was clean and well equipped for our stay. The owner was friendly, helpful and communicative. Overall great experience for our Italian vacation.
You could almost touch the duomo from the balcony (or so it seemed). This place is huge. Could easily stay here a month. Extremely well equipped. Location is steps from the duomo. Would definitely stay here again.
We had a wonderful stay! Check in was easy and the place is just as described. We couldn’t get enough of the amazing view of the Duomo dome - it was surreal sitting on the balcony (it was chilly but we sat out there anyway!). The kitchen was very well equipped (to include olive oil and salt/pepper, etc) and there were several small groceries nearby. Everything was within easy walking distance, including the central train station. As disclosed there are a few flights of stairs but we got up them easily with our luggage (carry-on size). There were clear instruction on where to bring trash and recycling, making checkout easy. Silvia communicated very proactively and we had everything we needed.
The balcony view of the Duomo was incredible. This apartment has everything we needed, and is clean and modern. The host responds very promptly, within a couple hours, to any questions or concerns. Highly recommend this!!
The apartment is in the perfect location! It was well appointed with everything we could have asked for. Sylvia is very responsive and helpful. We used the stairs as an excuse to have more gelato!
Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities, communication
Amazing location. The duomo bells chime at all random time and are quite loud so if you’re a light sleeper you might want ear plugs. The unit is equipped with anything you might need. The master bed mattress is quite firm (hard) which was a bit uncomfortable. You also need to remove trash yourself so plan on that beforehand. Many good restaurants close by.
This apartment was amazing! Stayed for a week with my family. It’s in a perfect location! Very clean, host was very nice and helpful. Loved the little patio overlooking the Duomo.
Beautful top floor apartment with everything you need. Gorgeous view of the dome from the terrace. 2 minute walking distance to the duomo. There are several stairs but good exercise after a delicious meal next door. Silvia was wonderful to communicate with.
The 2 bedroom apartment was perfect for my friend and I. The location was perfect and the view from the balcony was amazing!! Pack light bc there are 4 flights of stairs to climb. Overall it was wonderful and we would stay again.
This place was perfect for us! In a great location to everything we wanted to see! Plenty of great restaurants and gelato steps away. The view was spectacular of the Duomo. Really peaceful in the morning.
This was our second visit to Florence, but the first in this beautiful apartment. Would not stay anywhere else. The stairs prepared us for the climb to the top of the Duomo;) Silvia, could not be a better host. Grazie
Absolutely beautiful stay in the heart of Florence
My wife and I were blown away with the quality and cleanliness of this rental. The rental is spacious with many amenities and a fabulous view of the Duomo

About the host
Hosted by Silvia Palagi
Hello everyone, my name is Silvia and I live in Viareggio, where I deal with tourism. For professional reasons, therefore, I know the problems linked to hospitality. So, together with my husband Guido, we decided to rent our apartments in Florence, providing them with all the comforts that we like to find in a house when we go on holiday and I can say that our guests are always been very satisfied. We look forward to welcoming you and we remain at your disposal for any information you might need!
Why they chose this property
It is the home of our dreams! Quiet, bright, cozy and comfortable, in the heart of the city, where "things happen"; we have restored and decorated with love and we spend all the time available, consistent with my work - which for a few years - I will keep in Viareggio. When we are not there, we want our guests and friends to live our own magic ....
What makes this property unique
The light, the silence, the beautiful view, comfort, make our nest a special place in which to relax, study, receive friends; or simply re-energize after a day of visits to the many attractions of Florence!
