Hotel vacation rentals in Santa Croce, Florence

The spot was beautiful and quaint. A short drive from the airport and in a quiet area surrounded by rolling hills. The owners were great and the breakfast was delicious! Would stay here again. Thanks again.

Wonderful apartment with a beautiful backyard in a quiet area, still close to the city center.

Great Value, beautiful stay. Very spacious and there was a lot of attention to detail in the decorating of the apartment. I will definitely be staying there again.

Casai Rovai is located in a beautiful building in Florence's historic center. The location is ideal for walking around the city. We had the Pegasus family room, very beautiful, very high ceiling, with sober and tasteful decor, very comfortable bedding. We also enjoyed the luggage storage service, with the possibility of picking up our luggage at our convenience. Having arrived outside of reception hours, we found the arrival and automatic check-in a little complicated, but in the end everything went very well. We recommend it.

Room was located near to train station. Its reasonable to have some noise by the road given its convenient location. Room is clean and shared toilet outside. Host kindly allowed us to leave our bags while we go about our day post check out.

This is a true gem! I almost didn't write this review because I don't want to let this secret hideaway become overcrowded and unable to book when I go back to Florence. An authentic Florentine bed and breakfast, centrally located, safe, clean, and the best part are the hosts that treat you like family! Breakfast and coffee-phenomenal! Not only are you getting a lovely and quaint place to stay, but you also get the assistance and care from Riccardo and his wife to have the best experience in Florence. Both were so helpful in arranging a tour of the Chianti region, being present for my lost luggage so I didn't worry and waste time waiting for the delivery, making reservations to places I couldn't get into, giving advice for sites to see, even ordering a taxi for departure, and offering historical information about the city and its many changes. They go over and above what is expected from an air bnb! Will definitely stay again if they will have me!

We felt very comfortable during our stay. Carla, our hostess is just wonderful and was able to recommend great restaurants. The breakfast was varied and rich. Although the accommodation is very quiet, you can still get to the center of Florence relatively quickly, on foot in about 30 to 40 minutes, by car in about 10 minutes, although you have to park on the outskirts of the city if you do not drive an electric car. For us, it was the perfect base to explore Florence and the surrounding area.

Excellent place, very good breakfast, Mario and the whole team are excellent hosts, there are places nearby to eat and bars, until late, the area is safe for walking at night. Just keep in mind that there is no elevator, if you have heavy luggage

The property is remote & far from everything on foot. You need a vehicle. However, the view and the interior of the walls are worth the trip! It's beautiful. The room was superb, the only downside is that you had to go out at night in a corridor for the toilet. There are two beautiful large living rooms, fireplace, library, kitchen with shared fridge. A beautifully decorated inner courtyard. I didn't like my arrival, only after 3:00 p.m. because the reception is closed and there is no one. We wanted to enjoy the view and the pool (not possible). The next day at 10 a.m. we had to leave, they told us 3 times, we understood the first time! It's early, to have time to take a shower and have lunch. We didn't like it at all! The pool, although eco-friendly, is more like a pond where swimming with frogs is possible. Be careful after 6:30 p.m. if you have a problem, no one answers! (Towels for rent at 5 euro.)

Overall it was really nice. I would have preferred to stay on other rooms of the villa but they were all already booked. This room in particular was not of our taste. Perhaps you like it!

Beautiful place and very welcoming, we had a great time

I loved our stay here! Our host’s gave us great recommendations for area’s to eat and things to do in the area. It is nice and private - very relaxing. We mainly booked so that we could relax and use the pool and chill - so it was perfect for that but you definitely need a car to go and travel to restaurants / activities and there isn’t that much in walking distance. We used the bbq at the place too which was great! The pool was beautiful with plenty of space to lie down and sunbathe. Thanks for a gorgeous stay!

We spent a wonderful few days with Valentina and her lovely mom – two women who are hosts with all our hearts. Already upon arrival, we were welcomed with a warmth that immediately conveyed the feeling of home. The room was cozy, sparkling clean and furnished with a lot of love for detail. The pool offered perfect refreshment on hot days, and everything was just made to feel good all around. But a very special highlight was the food: everything homemade, with fresh ingredients, a lot of love and Italian passion! So good we came back every night to eat at Valentina's – and that probably says it all. It was not just a stay, it was an experience full of enjoyment and real hospitality. Recommend without any restriction – we'll be back for sure🥰

We had a very nice stay at Nico's place. The communication was good and he was very flexible. This allowed us to arrive earlier and stay a night longer in another (larger) room. The air conditioning was wonderful after the warm week in Tuscany. The stay was clean and the bed was lovely. In the village itself there is only little to do, on the other hand you were close to Florence for a trip! We would definitely come back!

Very nice, clean, as described

Super location , super host , super place . Everything is perfect about this host and home. We were speechless . Would highly recommend ! For sure we will come back here !

My stay was exceptional! I received attention from the immense amount of my host, it was special! Great location, a special cleaning, super wide room….exception experience! I would definitely come back again for sure! Near railway station, commerce, main church, places for food…. Indescribable experience! Host always available! Thanks for so much!

Alessio’s accommodation was well positioned, and l felt welcomed by everyone l met.

Easy to access location, good and clean rooms, with dryer in the bathroom, hot water, bed well ok. Hostel structure very good. They perform various activities, welcome drink and pasta at night for guests free of charge. It is worth remember: they only provide towel by means of rent.

This home is something special. Very clean. Very aesthetically interesting. The beds were very comfortable. Linens lovely. Everything in the space had a story to tell. Lots of history. Stefano was very flexible and informative. We never met Stefano due to the fact that we came in late from travels and had to leave early for a flight home. But we had all we needed to feel at home when we arrived. Coffee in the AM and wonderful seating areas outside to watch the sunrise and hear the birds:) thank you Stefano for leaving us with a very cozy last night in Tuscany. We will never forget it.

Great location, great unit and a great host. I would highly recommend.

Absolutely beautiful apt ! Fantastic area walkable everywhere and very quiet area ! I will definitely book it again ! Eugenio was a great host always available to help !

Our stay in this house was great! The apartment is extremely well curated in every detail and thoughtfully designed. Eugenio explained that the apartment was created by a local designer! The house also has access to a stunning internal shared garden - beautiful to have breakfast in the morning! The location is perfect: tucked away on a quiet street, ideal for a peaceful stay, yet still within walking distance to plenty of lovely breakfast spots and restaurants. Eugenio and his team recommended a nearby pasticceria, and their croissants became our go to breakfast spot! Throughout our stay, Eugenio and the team were incredibly responsive, always ready to assist, and just genuinely kind and welcoming. Highly recommend staying here—we’d love to come back!
