About Marina

Me and my husband live in the beautiful country between Florence and Siena with our two Great Danes . Our two children 'left the nest': the girl lives in Florence, the boy studies in Scotland. Rent the apt. gives us the opportunity to meet people from all over the world and find new friends.

Marina purchased this apartment in 2012
Why Marina chose Historic Center

We bought this little apt. in 2011 and we renewed it at all in 2012. We belive that now it is cosy just like a nest. We love to share it with tourists who like to visit Florence and find peace and calm after a day of sightseen. The district is amazing, full of life, with the near Market of S.Ambrogio and many restaurants and bars. It is out from the tourists crowd, but in a walking distance from the main Monuments. It is inside the restricted area for traffic, but there are paying parking nearby.

What makes this apartment unique

We had many guests many of them came back, many became friends. All of them feel at home, because the apt. is cosy, comfortable, well equipped, bright and quiet. All of them love the near Market of S.Ambrogio, because they can find all kind of goods and sellers are very friendly.

Fantastic getaway in Florence!

My girlfriend and I had a lovely time staying at Marina's apartment in Florence. Everything was clean, comfortable, and homey during our five night stay. At only a ten-minute walk from the Duomo and about the same from the river, the apartment's pretty conveniently located: We walked most places without any trouble, and were glad to have a home base that wasn't too farflung from the things we wanted to see. We'd happily recommend the apartment to couples interested in a lovely getaway!

Absolutely wonderful!

This a gem in Florence! A perfect place for couples -- cozy, quiet, romantic, warm & welcoming. Excellent location with lovely rooftop views, central to everything. There's a kitchenette that's nicely-stocked with pots/pans etc to use after trips to the fresh markets that are all nearby.
Marina is a great host! She provided us with a delicious bottle of local wine, lots of recommendations, and arranged a taxi pick up for us back to the airport. I couldn't recommend this place highly enough, especially if you want something different -- it's cheaper than a hotel, you'll have more flexibility & independence, and you get a big slice of Florentine charm :)

I enjoyed my stay in this wonderful, cozy apartment. The apartment was nicely decorated and furnished and had all of the necessary amenities for my week long stay. Furthermore, the apartment was in a good location and it was easy to reach important sites. The owner was very helpful and was always available for questions regarding travel arrangements, restaurant recommendations, etc. I would highly recommend this apartment to anyone staying in Florence.

The perfect place!

The goal of my month in Florence was to get a better appreciation of the life of a local. I'm sure my time there would not have been as wonderful if I hadn't had Marina's apartment as my 'homebase.' Having never used homeaway.com before I had some uncertainty as to what to expect. From our first point of contact up until the end of my time at her place, Marina was nothing but helpful and courteous. The apartment is in a great location- within walking distance of everything- yet in a neighborhood without tourists. The space itself is modern, clean, and tastefully decorated. Wifi and heat were definite prerequisites for me and there were no issues. An added bonus was hearing the bells of the Duomo and Santa Croce (both within view upstairs). I hope that if I try homeaway.com again, I will find a place of similar quality and an owner nearly as nice as Marina. Grazie mille!

Superb apartment in a beautiful city

There is very little that I could add to the references that have already been left, Marina's place is wonderful!

I stayed for close to 3 weeks at her apartment during the Christmas holidays and New Year. It was very clean and so beautifully decorated, it's hard not feel immediately at home. Well-equipped and whatever wasn't there that you might need, she was quick to provide you with.

Situated in a great location in Florence, it was easy to walk wherever you needed to go and nearby there was plenty of choice for food and drinks. Marina values the personal touch, she was there to greet me and she left a bottle of wine to be enjoyed and she checked in a few days to ensure that everything was fine.

This was the perfect place to stay to celebrate the holidays and ring in the New Year. Thank you, Marina.
