A gem of a find!

Staying in this stunning apartment in Arezzo was an absolute delight. From the moment we arrived, Stefano (and his gorgeous dog Spritz) made us feel completely at home. The apartment is beautifully designed, blending modern comforts with classic Italian charm. Every detail was thoughtfully considered, from the elegant decor to the stunning bathrooms and fully equipped kitchen, making it a perfect retreat after a day of exploring Arezzo and nearby cities and towns (Florence, Pienza, Montepulciano, Siena, Cortona and San Gimignano). The location is unbeatable. It is in a quiet area and a short walk to shops and restaurants. The car parking area was also close by. We never had trouble securing a space each day. Our host, Stefano, went above and beyond to ensure our stay was perfect, providing local tips and restaurant recommendations and even cooking an amazing meal for us on our last night. His genuine hospitality made our experience even more special, and it was clear that he genuinely cared about making our stay memorable. Overall, this apartment in Arezzo is a gem, combining comfort, style, and an authentic Tuscan experience. We would return in a heartbeat, especially in winter, when we can enjoy the magnificent fireplace, and we highly recommend it to anyone visiting the area.

Perfect accommodation in historic town

Absolutely loved this place. Walking in the front door was like walking back in time but with all the creature comforts and luxury you could need. Stefano was brilliant and welcomed us into his home. Everything about the accommodation was perfect, plenty of space, amazing bathrooms,, well kitted out kitchen. The fire place is amazing and can be used even in the summer. Arezzo has lots to do and is lovely and quiet, some lovely restaurants and the mediciean castle is worth the short walk. Highly recommend this place,

Amazing place

We stayed here for 4 nights as part of our honeymoon. The apartment is gorgeous and so luxurious with everything you could possibly need. All the amenities but you also feel you have stepped back in time. Stefano has done a fantastic job and is such a welcoming host. It's right in the middle of everything in Arezzo too - lots to do and so many amazing places to eat. We completely relaxed. Can't wait to go back and bring some friends to stay as well next time!

Stylish, historic apartment in lovely Arezzo

Locanda Bellavita is a conversion of the kitchens of a 16th century palace carried out with immense, style, flair and sympathy to the old building by Stefano, the owner. Stefano was a very helpful host - nothing was too much trouble. The apartment is located in the old part of the city. Arezzo has much fine art and architecture and splendid food. Across the road from the Locanda is a wonderful pasticceria where breakfast can be purchased every day - delicious! As it is off the main tourist trail, the main attractions (e.g. the amazing Piero della Francesca frescoes) are blissfully devoid of crowds. We will certainly return to both the Locanda and Arezzo.

1st trip to Italy - AWESOME!

We could not have asked for a better property, location, or host! Stefano greeted us at the train station and helped us get settle in - we felt at home from the minute we arrived! There was a fire going, wine available and the atmosphere was perfect! The pictures do not do it justice - it is even more impressive and spectacular in person. We thoroughly enjoyed getting to know our host and the city of Arezzo - both are gems. From the quaint bakery across the street where we enjoyed a cappuccino and pastries every morning, to the history awaiting around every corning, our visit exceeded our expectations, and we cannot wait to return to this fabulous property and charming city! As for hosts...Stefano and his dog Spritz, five stars does not seem to be enough. We are already looking for a time to return!!

Stefano our host couldn’t have been more helpful and accommodating for all of us! He provided a wonderful wine tour of the area and cooking class with dinner. Only concern was sooo much food!

We were in awe! So beautiful, comfortable and peaceful. Best sleep ever on vacation. Stefano is an amazing host, very responsive and helpful. Great recommendations and knowledge of area made our visit even more special. Location is walking distance to the Grande Piazza, restaurants, groceries and a lovely bakery right across the street. His dog, Spritz will steal your heart. I could go on and on…..see other reviews, you will not be disappointed. We did not want to leave! I highly recommend Stefano’s home for your stay in Arezzo.

Fairytale Getaway in Arezzo!

Where to begin? For starters this property is even more beautiful in person than in the incredible photos shown here. It is very clean. The kitchen is fully equipped. Many people had left helpful cooking ingredients. The location is perfect. We were right across the street from a multi-generational, family owned & operated pastry/coffee shop. The women who run it are lovely, and the food/coffee was so yummy we went there every day of our weeklong stay. We easily walked to delicious restaurants, a park with an incredible view, the Piazza Grande, and tons of great shops! (If you are shopping for leather goods, La Bottega del Cuoio should not be missed!) We cannot say enough good things about Stefano, the guest house’s host. Not only did he drive us to and from the train station, but he also took us grocery shopping. Stefano is kind, fun and very helpful. He even offers very reasonably priced guided day trips and can teach you how to cook as an Italian. He is a host with many talents! We highly recommend Stefano’s beautiful guest house! So much so, we will come back and rent it again!

Quiet and restful

Arezzo is a quiet town and excellent location to tour around Tuscany. The old town and sites are beautiful. It is easy to walk around and the apartments are well located to stores. The kitchen and baths are beautifully appointed. Stefano the host and owner took great care in restoration of this Renaissance palazzo. The apartment is on the main floor. And there is a beautiful one on the floor above - piano mobile. There is a beautiful private garden as well.

Wonderful

My wife and I, and my sister and her husband spent the entire month of September in this apartment. The only way to discribe this experience is wonderful. The apartment was wonderful, the location was wonderful and Stefano was wonderful. I could write and tell you all kinds of great details, but I think you just need to discover them for yourself and then you could also describe it as wonderful. Best VRBO experience I have ever had. Thank You

He is a gracious host and an excellent instructor in making homemade pasta. He was most helpful suggesting sites to visit and excellent dining recommendations at every turn.

Perfection!

When you discover a property with 100+ 10/10 reviews you KNOW it will be special. You will also know it is not because of the property alone - it is a reflection of the owner. Locanda Bellavita is spectacular, but Stefano (and his adorable dog “Spritz”) makes staying here so very special. We arrived as guests and departed after 2 fabulous weeks as family. Please take the time to read through the reviews. Ethan S. added his on February 14th and articulated perfectly what a stay here is like. He wrote it on Valentine’s Day which is entirely appropriate since each and every review is quite simply a love letter to Stefano…and “Spritz”! We can’t wait to return! xo

Could not have been better.

Stephano goes out of his way to make his guests feel at home. The place was comfortable and spotless. We enjoyed getting to know our host and his city. The kitchen is well appointed with a well stocked wine rack. Read through the reviews, they are accurate! Comfortable bedding, lovely surroundings and, oh yes, a wonderful bakery across the street. Highly recommended!

Fabulous Place!

I can’t say enough good things about this home! The old mixed with modern is stunning. Stefano is an incredible host. He helped us plan a winery tour and advised us on things to do, we cooked, he started the fire for us when we wanted one, he even offered to come pick us up an hour away when we had car issues. If we’re ever in the Tuscany region again, this is where we will stay.

The perfect house in a perfect location

I cannot say enough good things about this beautiful house and its host Stefano. The 3 bedroom 2 bath house was perfect for my family of 5. As soon as we walked in, my kids eyes lit up with amazement. This 500 year old house was a dream come true. The location is in the old town of Arezzo which is a perfect location for day trips around Toscana. Everywhere you want to visit is 1 hour drive or less. Stefano was the perfect host and helped us with wine tour reservations and gave my family a private cooking lesson that was so much fun..and delizioso! If you are looking for the perfect home away from home in the heart of Toscana, this is it.

Enjoyable visit to Arezzo

Our family thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Arezzo. It's a lovely city - has places to visit, is very walkable, and has great food. In fact, there's a fabulous pastry shop across the street from the house. Stefano provided wonderful suggestions on less touristy places to visit. This charming home is a great central location for day trips - by car or train. The cooking class with Stefano and his son provided a fun-filled evening for everyone. We hope to return one day.

If magic had a home... this would be it!

In the home there is a guest book that shows the painstaking process that Stephano went through as he renovated this 500+ year old home. The book begins with a quote from Walt Disney that says "If you can dream it, you can do it." This sums up this amazing place and the soul and character of the owner. It is really beyond description. I've spend my life traveling around the world and have stayed in many amazing places; but this home in Arezzo is a cut-above. We wanted a relaxing vacation where we could make day trips to Florence, Sienna, and various places in Tuscany. Arezzo is ideally situated for this purpose, and it is big enough that you can still have plenty to do on the days you want to just hang around town. Stephano was our host, but so much more. We had him as a guide, and he did a cooking lesson for our family. He is full of good will, humor, and kindness. There are very few people you meet in the world who are so authentic, kind, and genuinely care about your happiness. This is Stephano through-and-through. He even has a little dog named Spritz that my family just loved! There really aren't enough words to describe our experience at this place, in Arezzo, and our time together as a family. The home is spacious, every detail has been thought through, and the giant fireplace just brings such warmth and love into the home. Beyond all of this, it is Stephano's passion for preserving the past and the magic that he sees in this edifice that is truly inspirational.
