If I could give Claudia's residence 10 out of 5 stars I would! Everything, from her incredible warmth and hospitality, to the stunning surroundings, and stylish property and amenities deserves the highest praises. You could honestly not land anywhere better in the Florence's surrounding area. The property is a gorgeous estate on a hilltop, a stone throw away from the city center, yet in the idyllic surroundings of the Tuscan countryside. It has breathtaking views of the city right beneath you; as well as a pool and plenty of lounging/relaxation areas that look straight out of a dream (we visited in February but I cannot wait to be back in the summer and enjoy this bucolic paradise!). The residence itself is filled with stylish touches that emanate luxury yet simplicity. And if this wasn't already enough to convince you, let me reassure you that Claudia and her daughters are some of the best hosts I have ever had the pleasure to stay with. Their recommendations were great! What a way to experience your dream Italian stay. Don't miss your chance to stay here!
