La Chapella is one of those “I can’t believe it” Airbnb experiences. Living in a centuries old chapel with 2 foot thick walls an all the modern conveniences (including air conditioning which is so welcome during the Tuscan summer). In a gated estate in a community of historic gated estates (historic in the European sense), the fantastic Italian public transportation system puts you just 20 to 45 minutes from anywhere in Florence, and there are three apps (we used Moovit) that tell you just how to navigate, including bus numbers, next bus, how to walk to connecting buses, and even how to walk to your final destination. It makes a car obsolete. Relax in the gardens, cool off in the little soaking pool, and enjoy Tuscan food nearby where you will be sharing the restaurant with only locals. What an experience.
