Bellosguardo means a “beautiful view”. This is where artists and poets came to be inspired for their artistic expressions in the past. It is for this reason Bellosguardo retains and lives up to its fine reputation of being an exclusive part of Florence which would otherwise be unachievable if it weren’t for Paolo’s apt and of course Air BnB. The apt is on a height and a little removed from the crowds yet within walking distance from the town. Paolo is such a thoughtful host and made special efforts to make our stay memorable like placing a small jar of olive oil and fruits from his garden. His place is so exquisite - you would want to be in the apt the whole time. He even offered to make us a meal which was very generous of him. The place is sparkling clean and the grounds are beautiful. Paolo must be a designer or an artist because of his fine taste that is reflected in each part of the house. But most imp is just how warm and welcoming he is. We will never forget our trip because of him. Cheers Paolo and hope to return some day.
