We stayed as a family with both little and older children. Massimo and his mother were both very responsive to any questions we had before and during our stay and spoke very good English. Arrival and departure went very smoothly. Everything was as described and very clean: well equipped kitchen with large fridge/freezer, nice bathrooms and comfy beds.
The grounds are beautiful with some olive trees too, which we loved. There was also a charcoal bbq and table tennis and darts for us to use which was great.
It was a 5 minute drive to the beautiful sandy beach in Pescoluse and 5 minutes to the supermarket in Salve.
We went mid - end of October which is low season, and even though a lot of bars and restaurants were shut already (as we expected), there were still enough open to make it a nice stay and it was not busy anywhere which was great. The temperatures were still low twenties and the children enjoyed their time on the beach which we had basically to ourselves.
It was about a 55 minute drive to the city of Lecce which is beautiful and definitely worse a visit.
The only thing I would mention is that the internet usage during the day was limited and only unlimited after midnight. The internet connection itself was very fast though.
We had a wonderful time at Massimo`s and would highly recommend it !
