Family vacation

An amazing location with a beautiful view. The A/C works so well that I was cold when sleeping. Plenty of hot water while showering as well. A great food grocery store across the street. If you plan to cook be aware there is nothing left behind from prior guests. Not even salt and pepper.

Can’t beat the location

This apartment is in a superb location and it’s very spacious. The hosts are extremely nice and accommodating! The white sofa is stained so it really should be replaced to make the living space more inviting. Also, the bedding on the beds is really thin and the extra duvet insert provided was dirty. This place could be A+++ with more luxurious bedding and updated living room furniture.

Perfect Stay

This apartment has it all- it is perfectly situated at the edge of the Ponte Vecchio and near everything you need! It has fabulous views of the Arno, enough room and bathrooms for 6 people and well taken care of. This is the 2nd time I stayed here. I come to Florence a few times a year and will always check availability here first. It's a gem.

Unbelievable condo in an unbeatable location

One of the most impressive properties I’ve visited. The massive windows open easily to the river and Ponte Vecchio. Easily walkable to all the main attractions in Florence, but still a bit less crowded than the area north of the River. The property manager was very responsive, check-in was seamless, and the place was exceptionally clean. Would absolutely recommend this spacious apartment for other groups!

Incredible apartment and location in Florence

We just returned from 1 week at Luxury Blue River and it was one of the very best family vacations we have ever had. The group was two adults, 3 kids in their 20's and one teenager. The apartment is spacious and the bedrooms are comfortable and have lots of storage. The bathrooms were well equipped with hair dryers, large towels, and good showers. The location of this apartment is breathtaking! I am an Italy Travel Specialist by profession and the views from this apartment knocked my socks off! This was perhaps my 10th time to Florence in addition to having studied there as a university student, and this was my very favorite location to stay. It is well managed and the building is secure with a small elevator for luggage. The apartment itself is two flights of stairs up but they are easy stairs. Across the street is a sufficient grocery and good gelato. Below is a high end seafood restaurant and a good pizza place next to that. If you are considering this apartment, book it- you will be so pleased!

Fantastic apartment

Great location, lots of restaurants around the apartment. Short walk across the bridge into the heart of the city (10 minutes), so much to do and see. The apartment was fantastic, beds super comfy, warm and cosy with a view over the river. We had a few trials with transport getting to Florence but communication was excellent. Definately a 5* from all of us

Incredible Location!

We were extremely happy to see how close this property was to everything from restaurants, shopping and sightseeing. Checking in and checking out was seamless. The property was spacious for our family of 5. Having 3 bathrooms for 3 teens, was very helpful. The kitchen had everything you might need to make a meal. The beds were comfortable and the bedrooms were big. The view from the living room was amazing. Looking out over the river, watching the sunrise on the right and all the people on the bridge on the left was perfect. We would stay here again in a heartbeat. A few things that need updating or cleaning are the furniture, walls and rug in the living room. New pillows would be good too!

Great location & view

Really great location with a beautiful view. The host was very easy to communicate with and check in/out was simple. The property was spacious. The white furniture in the living area was stylish, but there were some stains that made it feel less clean than the rest of the property. The property did have a washer with laundry detergent but no dryer. Overall a great stay!

Amazing location, view and excellent air conditioning!

Location and views can’t be beat! Breathtaking! I would recommend this property. Air conditioning is excellent and it was very hot outside but apartment felt great. Great sized modern bathrooms and water pressure. Excellent gelato across the street and terrific bars downstairs on this block right on the Arno. You may need to request additional towels and keys (we received two sets of keys) and washer/dryer instructions as we couldn’t figure it out. A supermarket across the street for all your food and alcohol needs. No cereal sized bowls. Could use additional bed pillows too. It was quite clean but the bedding needs to be refreshed which is why I gave cleanliness 4 stars. I have been to Florence multiple times and would stay here again given the modern feel, size, location and views. You’re 10 minutes walk to Piazza Signoria and Uffizzi.

Wonderful location!

We loved the location of this VRBO. It really cannot be beat. Steps from the Ponte Vecchio, across the street from a grocery and a wonderful sandwich shop and gelato store, next door to a wine bar, and close to a small coffee shop. The greatest feature of the property is the amazing view of the Arno. Truly an unbeatable location. The property would be near perfect with a few tweaks, like making sure there are enough supplies. There were no extra trash bags and no dish towels at all. The mattresses were quite comfortable but the bedding is sub par. The duvets are thin and dingy. There are a few extra pillows but no pillowcases. None of the beds have mattress pads, but maybe that is not a thing in Italy. The property is not cheap but worth it, especially if a little more attention is paid to these details.

Great memories

The apartment as others have mentioned is in the perfect location. It doesn’t get any better. Check in was seamless and the host was very accommodating and was easy to contact. The apartment is very clean and modern. The one negative I would bring up, as someone else mentioned, is that this rental has a very “cooperate” feel to it. It was very minimally stocked with the basic essentials. Each bathroom only had 1 roll of toilet paper, there were no extra trash can liners. We ended up having to purchase these and a few extra supplies. It would have been nice if the unit had a few extra supplies, a wine opener, maybe some extra towels, etc.. Overall a very nice place and a great time.
