Andrea (Livias father) was there to welcome us when we arrived. He showed us where we could find everything in the flat, gave us a little walkingtour of Polignano (including tips on good restaurants and beaches and invited us to a caffè speciale in a local bar). He checked on us every day via txt, made sure that we were fine and gave us more information on what places to check out in the area. The place is in walking distance to beaches, restaurants and shops but there are also plenty of beatiful other beaches in the area. We had a car, which made it easier to explore things spontaneously. The apartment is absolutely spotless, the sheets are fresh and clean and you find everything you need to prepare your own food if you don’t want to eat out. There was coffee, cold drinks in the fridge and a complementary bottle of wine upon our arrival. At the end of our stay Andreas wife left us a handmade gift! They are the perfect hosts and we would highly recommend this place to anyone.
Ps: You have to pay a tourism tax of 1€ per person per day which is normal in Italy and we received an email as a receipt.
