THE SMART TRAVELER

Florence & The Art of Good Living

without a trip to Firenza. Beside the River Arno and set among low hills clad in olive groves and vineyards, Florence is a captivating city. Cradle of the Renaissance and home of Machiavelli, Michelangelo and the Medici, this bustling city is a history book come to life. Take in the works of Michaelangelo, including David, at the Galleria dellAccademia. It is best to make reservations by going to www.firenze.net. Walk to the Piazza San Lorenzo where there is a daily market. You will want to visit the Pitti Palace and Boboli Gardens to enjoy the beautiful artwork and magnificent gardens. For a great afternoon of shopping, make your way to the Ponte Vecchio over the River Arno. There you will find shops offering the ultimate in jewelry, leather goods, home accessories and souvenirs. The city is busy and the streets are crowded with cars, bikes, motorcycles and pedestrians so driving is difficult even if you know where you are going. There are many hotels in Florence, but we wanted to stay in a peaceful and quiet setting. Our good fortune led us to the Villa Olmi Resort which offers simple elegance in a rural ambiance. Just a short distance from the heart of Florence, this 1400s country estate is situated on the Ripoli Plain, known since ancient times for its fertile lands, providing savory fruits and vegetables to Florence. Villa Olmi

At The Villa Olmi Resort Our visit to Italy would not have been complete

Resort is the ultimate example of fine living from its luxurious accommodations and beautiful gardens to its authentic Italian cuisine and carefully selected wines. As you enter this magnificent villa, the Florentine architecture, antique furnishings, and Italian artwork create the air of simple elegance, typical of the ancient aristocratic country homes. The spacious entry rooms draw you in to unwind and take pleasure in your beautiful surroundings. You can enjoy a stroll through the country house garden, relax by the swimming pool or sip a glass of Prosecco on the open Veranda overlooking the vegetable garden. Wherever you are in the Villa, you are surrounded by beauty. The three main buildings of the estate, the Villa, The Fattoria and the Colonica, have been restored to accommodate a total of 50 rooms and suites and three apartments with 4 bedrooms each. Throughout the accommodations you will find examples of rural-patrician architecture, fine period furniture and 18th Century frescos. Rooms range from 250 in low season up to 1400 for an apartment in high season. As part of the Small Luxury Hotels of the World, the Villa Olmi Resort offers all of the privacy and luxury you want with modern day amenities for comfort and communication. In keeping with the art of good living at Villa Olmi
