With gorgeous views of the River Armo, this Florentine apartment has two sizeable terraces with space for alfresco dining and basking in the sun. You'll need to bring some of the basics like toiletries and bin bags, especially for longer stays, but there's no shortage of shops right on your doorstep for stocking up on whatever you need. An array of restaurants and the grandiose Pitti Palace are within easy walking distance, and you won't be far from public transport to see the sights of this historic city.

Home truths
Service animals may be welcome here, but speak to your host about this before booking – regular pets aren't permitted here.
This home is in an apartment building in a central location, so you can expect to hear some outside noise.
Only minimal toiletries are provided, so you'll need to bring your own. Some essentials like bin bags aren't provided at all. If you want to stock up on arrival, the nearest supermarket is a short walk away.
The wi-fi can be temperamental here. It might be worth bringing a personal hotspot device with you if you know you'll need to access the internet.
The kitchen here is quite small – we think it's better suited to prepping lighter bites than large meals.
