Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
Located on a bustling and vibrant street, the crowning glory of this apartment is its fantastic proximity to all the sights and attractions of Florence. Why not begin your mornings here with a cappuccino on the balcony which overlooks the Vasari Corridor? Then, use the desk space to catch up on any important work or examine your maps and plan out your day before you head out to explore the area. Visit the Piazza della Signoria square in front of the Palazzo Vecchio – a short four-minute walk away, or see the famous Cathedral of Santa Maria del Fiore – reachable in nine minutes on foot. Let your host organise museum visits, and admire some artwork at the Uffizi gallery – a three-minute walk away from your door, or even plan a wine tasting and choose some of your favourites to take home with you. In the evening, we would love to enjoy an alfresco meal of fresh, Italian pizza, accompanied by a bottle of local wine as we enjoyed the views from the terrace as the sun sets.

Local guide
About Santa Croce
Santa Croce is a trendy, architecturally impressive neighbourhood that’s less busy than the Duomo or San Marco districts, but still in the heart of Florence. Home to the eponymous basilica, and the Casa Buonarroti museum, it’s located in the eastern part of Florence’s historic centre. The largest crowds have thinned out by this point, but if you stay here, you're still close enough to explore the whole city on foot....
