Renovated gorgeous villa in Florence. Walking distance to all sites.

*Guidelines for enhanced cleaning and disinfection are being followed to guarantee the utmost safety of our guests
Hidden Florence still exists! Villa Ventura is located in the most picturesque area of downtown Florence. An ancient pilgrim path takes you to Ponte Vecchio and the historical center in no time. Nestled just above San Niccolo, the oldest and most beloved district by the Florentines, you can truly enjoy the best of the countryside and the city. This luxuriously renovated three bedroom villa offers privacy, breathtaking views, terraces, gardens and a quiet hideaway. Erta Canina is part of historical Florence and the ancient monk path takes you to all sites in no time. The villa is located close to Piazzale Michelangelo and therefore it is on top of the hill, overlooking Florence. The gorgeous view of the duomo will make the steep path very worth the while. Alternatively, Ponte Vecchio is a quick taxi or bus ride away.
For longer stays please note that we require an obligatory weekly mid cleaning which will guarantee a perfectly cleaned home for you including a change of all linen and sheets. Please inquire directly with the owner for fees and cleaning schedules which will be coordinated according to your convenience.

Best view and property in Florence
Exceptionally well appointed VRBO in Florence. Small walk up the hill but easy uphill walking distance all the major restaurants and museums. The place is an architectural masterpiece. I wish I lived here.

Lovely Villa
This property is the perfect distance away from the hussle and bussle of Firenze. It is clean and very comfortable. You'll get your heart rate coming up the hill, but we loved the exercise.

Gorgeous villa, amazing vistas, close to town
Villa Ventura is a magnificent property. Every detail of this property has been thought out and well-executed. We loved the modern design and cozy touches of this property. The sunset views from the lovely terrace were incredible every single night that we were there. The hot air balloons in the morning views were outstanding, too. The en-suite bathrooms were all beautiful and the beds were very comfortable. It is difficult to find a villa for rent that has such a close proximity to town. The San Niccolo neighborhood nearby has a nice bakery, a couple of small markets, a coffee shop, good restaurants, wine bars, pizza places, etc. And it is a quick walk to (and across) the Arno River from there. That said, it is a fairly steep walk up back up the hill to the villa. (We did it at least twice a day so it is definitely doable,) We are already making plans to go back to this delightful find. The communication with the owners was exemplary! They are just great.

Highly recommend!
My family had the most incredible stay at Villa Ventura and didn’t want it to come to an end! We enjoyed the peacefulness and serenity of the beautiful Tuscan countryside and the ability to walk into the city to explore. The villa itself is amazing. Lots of natural light, clean, comfortable, and stunning. Karin was a phenomenal host. She was super responsive and provided many great recommendations in response to our many questions. We appreciated her arranging our transfer to and from the train station. We hope to return to Villa Ventura.

Did not look like the pictures
I think that they used a lot of photo shop. It difinately does not look anything like the photos. They need to tell there customers you need to walk down and up a very steep hill. Also if you need a taxi you need to walk up to Main Street. Owner can be very harsh! Would not recommend.
