Pet-friendly vacation rentals in Santa Croce, Florence

The house is great, quietly located, at an ideal distance for discovering beautiful Tuscany, tip : San Gimignano is top!! Chianti route is wonderful!! Firenze is much too busy... Angela is super, warmly received, gives tips for restaurants nearby and always available, top hostess!!

Super nice hosts, excellent place, located fairly close to bus and train station, free protected parking space. Excellent value. Fully recommend.

We spent a long weekend at Agnese's apartment. Everything was fine. Clean, tidy. Beautiful. The communication with Agnese was very straightforward and she was always available for short-term questions. We highly recommend the apartment, and we would come back any time.

Very peaceful accommodation in a very nice environment. Ideal for discovering Florence (easily accessible by bus) and the surrounding Tuscany.

This place is stunning. It’s a picture postcard Tuscan home. Beautiful views, peaceful and calm, everything inside that you need and want. It would be tricky to find, but Donatello meets you to ensure you don’t get lost! Me and my family were so happy here. The children loved playing in the garden, especially with the box of toys we were shown when we arrived. We only wished we had stayed longer.

Staying at Flora's was nothing short of magical! We spent a week at Flora's with our kids (3.5 and 6.5) during April and had a lovely time. The unit is comfortable, well kept and cosy. The surroundings are quiet and picturesque. The location makes it easy to travel around northern Tuscany in a rental car, and you can also park at the town nearby (2 mins drive) and take the bus to Florence (which takes about 30 minutes). Flora herself is a kind and attentive host and made us feel so welcome. Our kids loved playing with Goofy the dog and watching the chickens from across the fence. The fresh eggs, olive oil, cookies and sweet wine were a nice and welcoming touch. We feel lucky to have had the opportunity to say at Flora's and would wholeheartedly recommend it!

Everything about this place is beautiful, exactly what you dream of when imagining a Tuscan getaway. The property is lovely and serene - an ideal place to watch the sun set. The amenities are lovely and top quality. Thank you for a wonderful experience!

Away from the hustle and bustle of the city, the ambience is comfortable and easily accessible, just a few minutes walk away

Simone was great during our stay. Super responsive and helpful. The space was beautiful and comfortable for 2 people. Also, central to bus stops that get you into the city within 10 or so minutes. Would definitely recommend!

I had the most amazing experience staying at this beautiful villa in Florence. The location was perfect—peaceful, private, and surrounded by stunning views that took my breath away, especially from the parking area. The villa itself was incredibly cozy and charming—so well maintained and full of character. Honestly, I didn’t want to leave. I’d live there if I could! The pool was a dream—relaxing, and the perfect spot to unwind with the Tuscan countryside all around you. Our host, Leonardo, was absolutely fantastic—so friendly, welcoming, and helpful throughout our stay. You can tell he really cares about making guests feel at home. This place was everything I hoped for and more. I would 100% come back again. Highly recommend!

My partner and our two dogs only stayed two days from December 31 to January 2 in the "Green Apartment"; The apartment was very clean and well-stocked from every point of view ( kitchen, bathroom and bedroom) the spaces are quietly there for a long vacation. We are from the Florence area, and finding ourselves in the middle of all that greenery very close to the center and all the services did not seem true. The entire farm is very well cared for and you can enjoy the stay in relaxation, being very quiet. Unfortunately, staying in winter we could not enjoy the very large outdoor pool, but you can see that it is well maintained. We'll definitely be back to get away from the routine towards the hottest season. Highly recommended for those who want to visit Florence and its surroundings and spend a long vacation.

Benedetta and her family are wonderful host, very warm friendly and helpful always enjoy our time at her place very much. Looking forward to stay next time , thank you Benedetta :)

Our days at Podere di Montecchio were wonderful! The accommodation was super fresh and the pool together with the view was a dream. Paola and Luigi were very kind, helpful and made several recommendations about activities nearby to make our trip as good as possible. We will definitely go back and I can recommend everyone to visit Podere di Montecchio at some point. Thank you for an amazing week!

Federico’s place has a beautiful view of the Tuscany hills. We cooked a meal and sat out on the front patio several times soaking in the beauty of the area. The bed was quite comfortable. The shower is small but large enough to get the job done. As suggested, you will need a car to get around as the properties in the region are large and there is nothing within walking distance. We drove into Florence one day and walked around and visited the sites. The other days we toured different wineries in the region. We had a really nice relaxing stay.

This place was amazing ! It fit our family of 8 very comfortably including a crib for our 2 year old grandson and 5 comfortable bedrooms. It had an amazing pool and outside area in the beautiful Tuscany countryside. We enjoyed easy access to Florence as well as neighboring cities such as Siena and San Gimignano via a car. Car was important to have. Giulia was very communicative and made us feel very comfortable staying here. Couldn’t recommend this place more.

There’s something very special about this home and its surroundings. It’s both serene and spiritual. A charming old farmhouse, with the most beautiful greenery all around it, (many olive and fig trees) and stone pathways to lead your way. Beatrice is so helpful and sweet. She is lovely to talk to. She is available when needed, yet allows you privacy. She also let us have the opportunity for a late check out. Getting to Florence from the home is a 35-45 minute drive, but there are many surrounding towns that Beatrice helps you to navigate. If ever I return, this will be where I stay. Thank you Beatrice!

The house was great and kid friendly with toys, high chair and a portable cot. 2 seperate bedrooms and toilets were very handy. It is an apartment on the ground floor so you will hear noises from upstairs. Bus stop into central town wasnt far away and came frequent. There is a bakery, restaurant and supermarket a bit further along also but not too much else. Nice quiet residential stay.

As a group of 6 adults, we were very comfortable here. We had everything we needed in the kitchen, bedrooms, and bathrooms. Each bedroom had storage, which was great for unpacking for a several day stay. Walkable to all the tourist attractions in Florence.

This was an amazing stay! Giancarlo, the host was very friendly and his place exceeded our expectations.The place was fully stocked with anything you would need to make yourself feel right at home. Not to mention it is minutes away from wonderful restaurants and shops. This was a 10/10 for us and really made our trip to Florence spectacular.

We, 2 couples a baby and a dog, enjoyed our week at this lovely location. After a quite rocky and adventurous road, the house is situated in the midst of the beautiful tuscan landscape with wine hills and olive trees. From the lovely pool which was only for us we enjoyed those lovely views. The rooms are spacious and the kitchen is fully equipped, including a nice barbecue ourside. Florence is reachable within about 45 minutes by car and there are two little towns about 10-15 minutes away with big grocery stores, restaurants and gelaterias. Andrea and Gianni were super helpful, responsive and lovely hosts. We would highly recommend Le Spugne.

What a fantastic apartment! The place was immaculate and beautiful, looked just like the pictures. We had an easy walk (15 minutes) to all the main attractions. The apartment was more residential for a city and thus very quiet at night. Awesome bed as well, we slept very well!

Donna's place was perfect and meet our needs. The location was the best with all of the major sites withing walking distance. Our next trip to Florence will include (hopefully) a stay with Donna's accommodation.

The apartment was just as described and seen in the photo. Everything is super clean and tidy, it has all the amenities for a short or long stay. The hosts were super flexible with the key exchange schedule and were attentive. We were in a car, so the location seemed good, connected and easily accessible. You could park on the street for free. I recommend it 100%. I would definitely go back!

Nice apartment in a perfect location. Martina was great, there when needed.
