Rino's home is gorgeous, we loved the outdoor kitchen and roof terrace with barbecue. It was very relaxing to be there. The local beach (which is a 5 minute walk) was quiet and beautiful, very safe for swimming and snorkelling with crystal clear water. Rino gave us fresh produce from his garden and regular gifts of breakfast pastries which were very welcome! There is a well-stocked supermarket with butcher/bakery counter less than 10 minutes walk away and Otranto's historical centre is less than 15 minutes walk away. There are also bikes you can borrow from Rino and the roads are quiet for biking/walking. We cannot recommend his place highly enough.
