B & B A Casa Di Violeta

Florence Italy




By Jay Whipple/Trend Magazine

Casa Di Violeta I found out about this neat B & B (Bed and Breakfast) via our Facebook page a few months ago and decided then to attempt to contact the owner via email for an interview. I personally have never stayed at a B & B but have visited several in Charlotte, NC, during the course of conducting Charlotte’s Longest-Running Daily City Tour by Queen City Tours and Travel. My favorite is Ms. Elsie’s B & B -- located in east Charlotte, NC -- which features a Caribbean theme. In fact, I have picked up several guests from there for a tour. I do not know if I will get a chance to visit B&B A Casa di Violeta (The House of Violeta) in Italy but you never know. Be that it may, I was elated to get a quick response from the owner – Violeta Grecu -- and even more elated to learn that she speaks, writes, and understands English.

Casa Di Violeta Her cozy four bedrooms B & B is located in a mansion built way back in 1850 and renovated in 2010. It is 10 KM from Firenze in Tuscany/Florence which arguably houses the world’s greatest repository of art to include extraordinary paintings and sculpture to frescoes and architectural masterpieces. The area is also well known for its wines, extraordinary countryside, mountain paths, sea coast and islands, and of course the beautiful Italian languages and culture.
