Luxury Florence Holidays
Take a luxury holiday to Florence with Elegant Resorts and you'll find it the most narcissistic and self-assured city in all of Italy - instantly breath-taking, inspirational and quite simply fabulous - Florence flaunts its impressive collections of artwork, divine architecture and timeless good looks with unimaginable grandeur and confidence.
Never content in being anything less than perfect, Florence is where the beautiful people reside – amidst strutting narrow streets, fluttering boutiques and world-famous museums that seemingly pop up on every adjoining road. The home of Michelangelo, Donatello and more recently, Gucci – Florence has undeniable style and bravado to match; an impressive mix of understated romance and embellished swagger where even the streets congested with scooters and flustered tourists are deeply attractive.
With its cluster of russet roofs and Renaissance splendours, set amongst wine-growing hills, most visitors are overwhelmed by its artistic opulence, which is understandable as it was the cradle of the Renaissance and home of the Medici family (Italy's most progressive art patrons) and thus houses some of the world’s greatest treasures. And, with its historic centre classified as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, this is one city that begs to be explored. If you feel like exploring further, you can be deep in lovely Chianti countryside in less than half an hour.
