A great value in a hidden gem of a town, Porto Tricase, with a beautiful 10-minute walk down a winding waterfront hill to the charming port and public beach. Next to the elite-yet-affordable seafood restaurant, Porto Taverna, and a short drive from Castro historic castles, natural salt water pools, boat rentals, water caves and also the garden restaurant Da Amadeo. The apartment is simple but newly renovated with air conditioning and a bedroom window with a heavenly view of the sea. A real paradise and very fairly priced. Puglia is amazing and lives up to the reputation; authentic, without too many tourist-traps, and this location is situated in the center of many more beaches and world class restaurants all within 10-20 minutes drive. Too many to mention actually. The host greeted us with Martinucci artisanal local pastries which was both heart-warming and world-class quality. We will be back!
