Laura and Luca are incredibly warm and inviting hosts. Although we didn't spend much time with them, knowing that such a great family lived upstairs added to the magic of Settignano. Luca was right, the town is amazing. We got to know the woman at the little shop where we got our espresso/bus tickets, and always waved to the man with his dog and Campari. The tiny square (only a minute from the apt) is perfect .A tiny market, two or three restaurants to choose from and a post office. The market had surprisingly tasty antipasti,the restaurants were all fun and well-staffed, we weren't disappointed in Settignano. The people are too friendly and the area is too charming to worry.

We wouldn't have had such a great time in Florence without knowing we could escape the crowds back in Settignano. There are great walks to do when you need a little fresh air and Luca provides a nice map.

Luca and Laura are very easy to communicate with and helped us quite a bit. We showed up a day early by accident and Laura quickly cleaned the room (luckily another guest had just left) and assured us not to worry. A possible stressful situation was totally avoided by her warm welcome. Very comfortable stay, we can't imagine returning to Italy without staying in the room in Settignano.
