This place is beautiful. So incredible. Amenities were modern and clean. Easy to use. The bed is comfortable and had FRESH WHITE linens (key if you are a germa-phobe like myself). Marta also provides clean, luxurious bathrobes which add to the vacation vibes.
The apartment was well decorated and the OCEAN VIEW is absolute perfection. The location was incredible and right in the center of Polignano a Mare (by American standards) ; one block from the famous beach in all of the photos of Polignano. It is also a 30-60 min drive from ANY town worth visiting in Southern Italy.
Her apartment has free and easy parking. I would recommend renting a car out of Bari airport. The apartment is a 30 min drive from there. The supermarket is a short 5 min drive from the apartment.
The host Marta and her husband Rocco were more than wonderful. They were very sweet and accommodating. My husband and I quickly became friends with them and would return to Polignano JUST to see them.
We have been traveling all over Italy and I was getting sick of sub-par AirBNBs. Marta’s apartment renewed my faith in AirBNB and made me feel right at home.
For anyone from California or LA, for that matter, this apartment is UNDER-PRICED. I felt like we didn’t pay enough. It’s perfect. BOOK IT before other people notice Marta’s place and make it too famous.
I will DEFINITELY be returning.
