About this property

Newly listed, renovated: Stunning luxury in the magnificent Santa Croce district

There's no better place in the world than Tuscany--centuries of history, the world's most outstanding wine, pasta perfection and the friendliest people. Our luxury apartment is located in the city center of Florence in the famous Santa Croce district, only a few minutes from the Duomo. Out the front door, guests will have access to numerous local restaurants, the best museums and incredible shopping. Plus, our home is situated in a quiet, safe area of Florence where locals gather in the piazza throughout the day to enjoy the weather and get caught up on life. It's a perfect place to hang out and take in the local ambience.

The apartment itself has been recently remodeled and furnished with new, designer goods. Guests will have access to a beautiful new kitchen with seating capacity for two around the island. A microwave and four-burner cooktop provide everything guests will need to whip up a great meal, and there are ample cookware and utensils. There is also a wine frig for those incredible Tuscan delights purchased during the day and ready to drink at night. Just off the kitchen is a dining area with seating for up to six. Steps away is the grand living room with lovely vaulted ceilings and a view of the piazza. All our furniture has been custom-designed locally in Florence and will provide a comfortable place to unwind after a day exploring Florence. Down the hallway is the first of two beautifully appointed bedrooms and a full en suite bathroom. Then, up a short flight of stairs, guests will find two additional areas. First is a fantastic "office" space for those needing to put in a few hours for work. We've selected a comfortable couch as well that can be used for reading, relaxing, or taking an afternoon nap. Next is the second bedroom with its fully-appointed en suite bathroom. Both bedrooms have room darkening shades to assure a restful sleep, and we've outfitted each with a queen-sized bed and elegant 600 thread count sheets. Both bathrooms have showers, toilets personal sinks.

Our apartment features all the important amenities guests might need to make there stay comfortable including wi-fi. We also installed a brand new washer for laundry. Please note there is no dedicated parking for our building. There is also no elevator--our apartment is on the third floor.

Great apartment!

Lovely apartment. Well supplied with anything you could need. Very clean and comfortable. Great location. Convenient to walk anywhere in the city. There are only stairs so you have to be healthy enough to climb and carry bags. Overall a wonderful place to stay!!! I’d stay again!

A great location and a very nice property. Well positioned in a great local neighbourhood and close to the mercato sant’ambrogio. Perfect for the three of us, and very clean good condition. 62 steps so not for everyone, and a low beam in the larger lovely bedroom suite. We’ll definitely retun

Beautiful apartment in great location

Our stay was at the end of November 2024. The apartment is spacious and beautifully decorated with everything you could need. The kitchen is well appointed and we enjoyed the coffee provided every morning.Debi and Federica, the property manager were very helpful and responded quickly to anything we needed which included adding a day due to possible train strikes, ordering us a taxi, and helping us with where to find a printer.The location is great, all the key tourist sites are in close walking distance. Especially helpful is the grocery store just down the street.We highly recommend this property.

Best VRBO I’ve ever stayed at

This was our first time in Florence and this apartment was absolutely perfect for 2 couples. I thought the pictures looked cute but this apartment is even cuter in person. It was very clean and was clearly updated with a decorators touch. The location is great, a short walk to the Duomo and lots of great little restaurants and cafes near by. I would definitely stay here again.

Amazing Property!

We loved our stay! We arrived during a train strike. The property manager Federica was so helpful in helping us to navigate transportation and she allowed us to check in early and drop off our luggage before heading to see the Uffizi. The apartment is very well located - about a 10-15 min walk to the Duomo and close to some great restaurants and a grocery store. The apartment is absolutely beautiful and so comfortable. Highly recommend this property!

Wonderful Apartment!

This was the perfect spot for 2 couples exploring Firenze! The accommodations were exactly as described in the listing and exceeded our expectations. We could easily walk everywhere - tourist attractions, neighborhoods, museums, restaurants, shops and wine windows! Additionally, there was a grocery store just steps away. Abundant amenities including excellent coffee and a wonderful washer & dryer made our stay even more comfortable! I would absolutely stay again. Thank you!

Beautiful apartment and excellent communication

This property is beautiful, very clean, and the location is perfect. We walked everywhere. Communication was the best I've ever experienced using VRBO - pre arrival, check-in, and departure. FYI - there is not an elevator, had to walk up several flights of stairs.

I would give this rental 20 stars, if available. Everything was absolutely perfect from the booking, checkin process, apartment layout, furnishings, and location.

Awesome Apartment!!

The apartment was incredible - super-clean, newly renovated and updated, top quality furniture, especially the beds, which were very comfortable. AC worked great. The location can't be beat - right in the heart of Santa Croce. You can walk anywhere from the apartment. It is on the 4th floor, but the stairwell is wide and well lit. We loved it!!

This apartment is in a perfect location, 10-15 minute walk to train station, Duomo, Arno river and museums but has a caffe right outside the door, many restaurants, osterias, enotecas, shops and grocery store on the same street as the apartment.

Great apartment, lovely stay!

We enjoyed our stay in Florence at this lovely apartment. Everything was brand new, it felt like we might have been one of the first to stay. Beautiful furnishings, everything you need (including a washer and dryer). It was a bit of a climb, but as long as you can handle stairs, it was worth the effort!

About the host

Hosted by Debi Barish

Host profile image
Doug and I live in Laguna Niguel, California. I own a successful design studio and retail furniture business. Doug is retired from the medical field but is a full-time adventurist, traveling the world for sport-fishing, scuba, and other crazy activities.

Why they chose this property

Over the years, Doug and I have visited Italy many times, and we quickly fell in love with Florence. Who wouldn't? We love the Tuscan countryside and can't think of a more stunning place to live/visit. We've always been drawn to the Santa Croce district given it's collection of historic buildings and quaint neighborhoods. And the multitude of local restaurants, bread shops and wine bars provide a convenient opportunity to walk out the front door and into the real Florence lifestyle.

What makes this property unique

We think our apartment is truly special. The location is perfect and offers an opportunity to enjoy local living in a quiet, safe neighborhood with the easy access to all the great tourist sites Florence offers. Inside, we outfitted all the rooms with comfortable, stylish furnishings but we retained the local and historical decor (e.g. crown moldings, flooring, layout). It's a place we can't wait to come back to and are delighted to offer to our guests.
