The Rediscovered House

We were a large family group (9 people), grandparents, children and grandchildren. The accommodations were very comfortable and the location was excellent. It was a short walk to the Domo and other attractions. The hostess provided plenty of information about the neighborhood including grocery stores and local restaurants. I would definitely return to this property.

We enjoyed our stay. There was plenty of room for all eight of us. My only recommendation is the furniture in the living room needs to be replaced, as it is worn out.

There were 7 of us staying at this lovely apartment. We liked the location - a bit out of the tourist noise and action. There was some construction outside on the street while we were there but that should not be a problem going forward. The rooms are spacious, the beds were comfortable. We enjoyed our time there.

We visited Florence for 9 days with our multi-generational family. We spanned ages 4 to 74, including an elder with mobility issues. We were blessed to stay at this absolutely stunning apartment (website photos don’t do it justice!). It is located in a great walkable location in Florence (to sights, dining, gelato, shopping). We had enough space and creature comforts for everyone. The beautiful apartment featured important amenities for us: beautiful space, air conditioning (in July!), cleanliness, a fully-stocked kitchen, washer and dryer, # bedrooms with modern en-suites, and a small elevator for our senior and luggage. The apartment exceeded our expectations! We loved staying in this apartment- it is the best rental home we ever stayed at for family vacations. Monica was especially helpful with our arrangements, recommendations for restaurants, grocery shopping, transport to the airport, and inquiries. Thank you Monica! Florence holds a special place in our hearts and we’ll always have awesome memories of our stay and family time at La Mamora. Thank you for sharing your home!

We felt like we were living the luxury life in this apartment. So beautiful, comfortable and clean. Plenty of room for our family of 7. Monica was so helpful throughout the whole process. Highly recommend!!

We had a group of ten. The apartment was perfect. It is so beautiful, it looks like something from a movie inside. The host was very responsive & we had all of the creature comforts. It’s a nice, quiet neighborhood with easy walking to all popular destinations. This place is a romantic dream!!

I just wrote a review. Please copy and paste. Very happy. Great place.

Our family of 5(mom, dad, and 3 young adult children) felt like royalty staying here for our week in Florence. Monica graciously waited for and communicated with us while we dealt with lost baggage at the airport. While it was more space than we needed, it provided everyone a place to have alone time from each other after long days of sightseeing and we all had our own bathrooms! The history of this building (former embassy) and the painted ceilings added to the grandeur. Having a kitchen, pod single cup coffee maker, washer and dryer, refrigerator/freezer allowed us to keep some groceries at home and sleep in and not always have to find a place to eat. A large grocery store was about a 6-8 minute walk away and there was a cart we could take with us to carry everything home in. Monica was very attentive and helpful, and even received one of our lost bags at her office for us so we didn't miss a day of sightseeing. The beds are all very firm (which we liked) except the bed in the master bedroom (it was much softer but our son liked that). We did have mosquitos in the house which is par for the course in Florence in June. One shower was not working and Monica had that fixed in a few days for us. The location was quiet and residential, It was totally walkable from center city, but every time we reached the Galleria Accademia building, we wished we were home. We highly recommend this professionally kept VRBO apartment. Loved our stay and Loved Florence!

Lovely apartment, updated while keeping it's old charm. Would recommend this apartment

Our extended family (age range from 11 - 50) stayed in this absolutely beautiful apartment and loved it. We had lots of space and it was beautifully decorated. It was also up only one flight of stairs and quiet. Monica was very helpful and accommodating with restaurant and cafe recommendations. Short taxi ride to train station and about a 15 min. walk to most attractions. We would definitely stay here again!
