Antonella’s place is truly special. The view is fantastic and you really feel the ocean wind. The house is simple and beautiful furnished. While it is not meant to be stayed in all year round, there is enough kitchen supplies to cook at home. Antonella was extremely generous and accommodating. She gave us many tips for the area for places to eat and explore. Santa Maria di leuca is a small town, not super touristy but has enough going on to get a good meal and even explore by boat. We made a few day trips with the car to beaches etc- not having one would have been a bit challenging. There is no access to the water walking from the house, but there are beaches 10-15 minute drive away! We would strongly recommend staying here!!!
