We loved staying at Marie's beautiful home in Florence! It truly was an Oasis for us. Her home is luxuriously appointed and very comfortable. We loved it so much that we didn't even want to leave even though we were just in the middle of our travel throughout Italy. We loved the garden view (terraces across the way) we saw out the kitchen and dining room windows.

The apartment is quite spacious, very comfortable and quiet. We enjoyed some meals there even though the dining out options are so amazing all around. We just wanted to soak in the tranquil ambiance of the lovely space she created.

The location was amazing. For anyone who has traveled to Florence, you can see on the map that this is ideally situated for exploring all of the highlights of the City. We could even easily get to the other side of the Arno by either taking the densely populated Ponte Vecchio bridge or walking just a few meters further for a peaceful stroll across the Ponte alle Grazie bridge. We loved how we could come back in between sight-seeing activities to take short breaks during the day.

We cannot wait to come back and stay here again.
