“Un accueil incroyable dans ce petit coin tranquille des Pouilles”
We had to start by saying how lovely and attentive our host was! Even though we didn’t speak the same language (I struggled with my awful Italian and she didn’t speak much English), we managed to communicate. She gave us great tips on cool spots to visit, where to eat, and shared fruit from her beautiful garden. The little breakfasts were super filling and full of local specialties, a treat, and the big garden was set up in different spots with cozy little islands to sit in the morning or evening – just perfect! We loved our stay largely thanks to our fantastic host. We were looking for a quiet holiday while enjoying nice beaches and good food, and we were served! The house is ideally located less than 10 minutes from Otranto, which is great for exploring Salento if you want to see other beautiful coastal spots (Porto Badisco, Santa Maria di Leuca…) or visit nice towns (Galipoli, Lecce…). We often went to Otranto in the evenings to stroll, grab a drink or eat, or to Alimini beach 5 minutes by car where there are also beach restaurants. The accommodation was very cute, clean, comfortable, and especially extremely quiet! Thank you for the welcome, and a shout‑out to our caretaker of the stay Piccola, the little fluffy white cat, that we didn’t manage to kidnap! Nothing was wrong – everything was top! The only small point is that we found out upon arrival that walking to the beach was longer than expected because of recent privatization…which is really regrettable for everyone but not the fault of our host at all :) It’s good to know because we thought we’d walk to swim and ended up having to take the car :)
