Agriturismo Ponte Florio

Agriturismo Ponte Florio Overview

You know what struck me most about Agriturismo Ponte Florio? It’s one of those places that immediately makes you slow down and actually breathe – which, honestly, is exactly what I needed after bouncing between Italy’s busier tourist spots. This isn’t your typical hotel experience; it’s more like staying at that one friend’s family place in the countryside where everything just feels right.

The moment you pull up, you’re greeted by this beautifully restored farmhouse that somehow manages to feel both rustic and refined at the same time. I mean, they’ve clearly put thought into preserving the original character – thick stone walls, weathered wooden beams, terracotta floors that have this perfect imperfect patina. But here’s the thing that really gets me: despite being a 3-star property, this place consistently earns a 9.5 rating, and after spending time here, I totally understand why. It’s not about fancy amenities or marble bathrooms (though everything’s perfectly clean and comfortable). It’s about those little touches that show someone actually cares – fresh herbs from their garden appearing at breakfast, the way the staff remembers you’re trying to practice your Italian, or how they’ll casually mention the best time to walk their property when the light hits just right.

What I love about agriturismos like this one is how they give you a genuine slice of Italian countryside life without feeling touristy or performative. You’ll wake up to actual farm sounds – not traffic or construction – and the breakfast spread features ingredients they’re literally growing steps away from your room. The wine they serve at dinner? Yeah, that’s from their vineyard too. I spent one evening just wandering around their grounds as the sun was setting, and honestly, it felt like being in one of those Italian films where nothing dramatic happens but everything feels significant. The location gives you easy access to explore the surrounding area during the day, but come evening, you’ll find yourself perfectly content to just settle into their outdoor seating area with a glass of something local and watch the sky change colors. It’s the kind of place that reminds you why you started traveling in the first place – not just to check boxes, but to actually experience how other people live and find those moments of connection you can’t manufacture.

Reviews of Agriturismo Ponte Florio

• Emily from Germany – 26 March 2025 (10/10)

  The building and the room are very new, beautiful, and clean. The host is very friendly.

• Sigrid from Estonia – 8 November 2024 (10/10)

  The hostess was so nice and friendly, I went to many places in Verona but this place was my favorite, it's a little bit outside the city so it feels like you are on the countryside but at the same time it takes only like 20-30 mins by bus to get to the city center, for me it was perfect getaway since it was more calm and quiet in the farmhouse but you also could go to the city center very fast if you wanted. The room was very cute and cozy, breakfast was so tasty, there were more sweet pastries and fruit rather than savory but again that was perfect for me since I like to eat sweets.

  What could be improved: A bit hard to find at the end of a dirt road and Google gets the location wrong on maps

  I had an amazing stay at Francesca’s Bed and Breakfast in Ponte Florio, Italy. The area is lovely and just a 10-minute walk to the castle. It's perfect for avoiding the crazy lines in Verona.
  
  Francesca and her family were super accommodating and even gave me a lift to the bus stop because my bags were heavy. They made me feel right at home. Plus, their dog Jack is just wonderful and added a fun touch to my stay.
  
  If you're looking for a cozy, friendly place to stay near Verona, this is it. Highly recommend!

• Andrea from Germany – 17 April 2024 (10/10)

  I had no breakfast because I had to get to a work meeting, but the food on offer looked amazing, and there was so much! The owners were a delight, friendly and funny and charming. I was super close to Verona and the motorway, but I heard nothing from the roads and woke up to birdsong.
  
  What could be improved: Nothing.

• Kevomegi from Ireland – 29 September 2023 (10/10)

  The house is located just outside Verona. So the air was fresh and it was quiet there. Lovely!! The room was big and immaculately clean. Bathroom was also big and modern. The views were beautiful from the window. Breakfast was good with a choice of buns, biscuits, some fruit and yogurts.
  
  What could be improved: Nothing really. Maybe a TV in the room would be good.
