The Nest | Apartment in the heart of Chiaia

We feel we lucked out renting this apartment. I speak no Italian. I had a medical emergency and our host took it upon herself to spend 5 hours getting me to an emergency room, advocating for me in in the hospital and taking me to a pharmacy afterward to make sure I had what I needed to recover. Francesca is truly a kind and generous person who went way above her responsibility as a host to make sure I was OK. The apartment is detailed lovely with touches like antique bedside tables, new marble tiled bathroom and lovely paintings. The terrace is great for lounging and there is a good view from the upper terrace. We loved the neighborhood because there are good restaurants nearby and small grocery stores for picking up bread and prepared dishes. It is far enough away from the heavy tourist traffic, but close enough to walk to the historic district. I missed a lot of the Napoli tourist attractions but I will never forget our incredible host and her generosity. She saved us!!! :). This is humanity at its finest.

Absolutely loved our stay in Francesca's beautiful apartment. The photos don't do it justice, it truly is lovely! Very spacious with large living kitchen area, doors out on to the first terrace with relaxing outdoor sofa and chair (perfect for reading in the evening!) And little spiral staircase onto roof terrace - amazing views of all the city around you! We sunbathed there one afternoon and it was so peaceful you wouldnt believe you were in the middle of such a busy city. The bedrooms were incredible - the master bedroom was beautifullu decorated with large walk in wardrobe space and the most comfortable beds. The mezzanine bedroom was perfect for our v tall 10yr old son, he loved having the downstairs of that space all to himself and said it was like his own little apartment (complete with sofa, coffee table, dining table etc!) There is a coffee machine with lots of pods included and Francesca helpfully left out some bottled water and some in the fridge. Check in was so easy and Francesca was lovely and really helpful. We don't know Naples but the area seemed quieter than others and i felt safe walking to the apartment by myself at night when i popped out to the supermarket. We would definitely stay again, thank you so much!

We had an amazing time and will stay at Francesca’s apartment again. Easy walk to everywhere, well appointed home and friendliest host

It is hard to choose a location when you live across the world. We were very pleased to find us in the most desirable place close to restaurants and beautiful stores. Our host was fantastic and the bed was wonderful. Best night sleep in years! Highly recommended.

Great!!

Francesca is an amazing host. She went out of her way to make sure every one of our needs were met. She arranged a car and driver to, and days later, from, Minori. She helped with our luggage, ( we packed way too much!) she made us feel so welcome and happy. You couldn’t find a better woman or place. Her place is a great place to just hang out when not walking the streets of Napoli.

We had a great time in this big apartment on the second floor in a very nice neighbourhood We enjoyed the atmosphere in the house and the lovely terrace. The house, interior and landlord werd very hospitable. Lots of coffee, olive oil, heating and a washing machine.

Francesca thought of everything. What a great host and even made us reservations for lunch at a great place. Very helpful and friendly. We will come back and stay longer next trip.

Fransesca is the best host! So incredibly helpful to make sure we made the best of our days in Naples. Perfectly located, 5-10 walk to everything you need yet just far enough away from the busiest part of Naples. What an amazing time we had in Naples!

We were thrilled with our four night stay in the lovely Francesca’s flat in Napoli. It is super clean, well appointed, in a very nice/convenient area of Napoli and has the most lovely 2 level garden/patio oasis to enjoy. The newly renovated bathroom is beautiful and spacious enough for two, the bed is next level comfortable with luxurious linens. The booking process and all communication with Francesca was so easy. She responded to all questions quickly, was at the flat for easy check in and provided great advice and recommendations. Traffic is a bit (OK a lot) overwhelming in Napoli, Francesca arranged for her friend Patricia to pick us up at the train station on arrival, we ended up using her every day which was a great convenience and piece of mind knowing she was only a text away. Thanks again Patricia, you were so kind to us. Would 100% recommend 10/10. Thank you so much, it was our pleasure and can’t wait to stay with you again. Max and Rhonda
