PEACEFUL OASIS IN THE HEART OF FLORENCE

The "palazzo" was built around 1200.The apartment has been completely renovated but it has kept its old flavour and character. It has one living room full of light with armchairs, dining table ,a furnished kitchen with fridge, microwave, dishwasher, washing machine, Nespresso, french press and italian coffee machine. There are 2 bedrooms with big beds and 2 complete bathrooms (one is attached to the bedroom and the other one just in front of the second bedroom) , a small balcony, AC in each room, central heating, free wi fi, . It's located on the 2nd floor but there is a lift (which is very unusual in Florence).The decoration is a mix of antique, ethnic and modern pieces; art books.The floor and the ceilings are made of wood with delicate pastel colors. Linens and towels are furnished. I also provide basic amenities (coffee, teas, sugar, sicilian olive oil house made etc...)

You are right in the heart of Santa croce neighbourhood, 5 minutes walk from the main sightseeings. There is a grocery store close by and a street full of coffee shops and nice restaurants.

It is also very quiet . Good nights sleep is secured!

Beautiful Florence home!

Pros: - Very quiet - Beautiful rooms and bathrooms - Love the showers - AC is fantastic and works great - Close to all the major sights - Elevator - Marie was so helpful and fantastic Cons: - gnats in the kitchen (brought it up to the owner and she was helpful in trying to remedy it) - Check in was incorrect on VRBO. Message Marie before your visit. The instructions were missing a part.

Charming flat, great location and lovely host.

I can’t say enough great things about this location and apartment. It is quiet and easy access to everything. I was in Florence a week before and stayed in the Savoy Hotel ( room was very small), and it was noisy at times. This apartment was so clean and spacious and very quiet. Close to grocery store, and steps away from cafes. Anytime I had a question Marie was very quick to respond. We will definitely stay here again. AC was good, in all areas of the home.

Great Location

Enjoyed staying here. Very clean, quiet, and plenty of space. Central location to the historic sites. It was a bit of a walk from the train station but we managed. Would stay here again. If you reserve the property make sure you review how to get into the apartment with the host before arriving. It’s a rather involved process.

The apartment was spacious and had a charming Tuscan flair. The kitchen was well equipped and a good size as,was the seating area. It was situated on a quiet residental street away from the rush of people and traffic, but easily within walking distance to all the historic sights. I would definitely stay there again if in Florence

Very assessable to city center historic sites. walk to Florence

Everything very close by, we used the hop on hop off bus to get around and to go up to the beautiful city of Fiesole and had lunch. The next day we had our own walking tour that we made up and we had a wonderful day. We also found very nice places to eat. We loved Florence!

Five star perfection in Firenze

This property was fabulous. The location was absolutely perfect, 5 minute walk to the Piazza Della Signoria, 10 minutes to the Duomo. The kitchen was beautifully done with beautiful tile and plentiful glasses, espresso machine, etc. The layout was perfect for 2 couples traveling together. It was 90 degrees F during our stay but the shutters kept out the heat nicely, plus the AC worked wonderfully when we needed a bit more. The coffee shop on the corner was lovely, an operational wine window around the corner and a lovely gelateria just a few paces away. The host was lovely and communication was great. Thank you, we will absolutely be back!

Perfect place and location

Our family of 4 loved this place. More than enough room for all of us . Tons of character and all of the amenities worked without one issue. A 2 minute walk to an amazing coffee shop with pastries. 10 minutes to the main square with tons of restaurants to choose from for a drink or longer stays. Our trip was somewhat busy but wish we stayed there longer. 2 thumbs up x 4 from us all! Loved it!!

Fantastic apartment!

This was a great apartment while in Florence for our family of three! It is centrally located but on a quiet street which was appreciated after visiting Rome. The elevator was also a huge help with luggage. The apartment was very clean and cozy and after a long day, wonderful to call home! Also, she had some shower essentials & lotion that smelled spa like :) unexpected & appreciated. She offered to call a taxi when departing if given enough time, I wish we had. For some reason even with using the taxi app they advertise in Florence, it was not reliable. If available, book this apartment, you won’t regret it!

Fantastic location and lovely apartment!

Fantastic location and perfect apartment for two couples. Our host communicated excellent instructions on how to check in and provided an extensive list of places and restaurants to visit. The kitchen was well equipped; we had everything we needed for our long weekend stay. The reception room was welcoming and cozy. We enjoyed just hanging out in the evenings while drinking a nice bottle of Italian wine. We met people on a food tour who were envious of our location as they had stayed close to this apartment the year before and were unable to find a place in this neighborhood for their visit this year. Book early – this is a great little gem.

The location was incredible. Easily walkable to everything in Florence and very comfortable. As others mentioned, along with the listing, it is on the fourth floor so be prepared to walk up some steps. There is a lift, but we did not use it. It was comfortable for 4 people with two full baths and two comfortable beds. Would definitely return!

Truly an oasis!

If you're looking for a quiet location within walking distance of all the major sites in Florence, Marie's Peaceful Oasis is it! We rarely heard any noise other than church bells. The VRBO combines modern amenities with rustic touches, making it a comfortable and eclectically decorated respite after spending the day touring or shopping. We took advantage of Marie's list of her favorite restaurants and enjoyed amazing meals. And we very much appreciated Marie's offer to call a taxi to pick us up at 4:30 in the morning when we were departing. Make sure to ask Marie about the keys as they are a touch finickity until you master them. Otherwise, our stay at the Peaceful Oasis was perfect!
