Cecilia has a wonderful apartment in Lecce in the historic center. It is a beautiful part of the city, and a great home base for exploring all of the Puglia Region. Cecilia's level of communication leading up to and during our stay was top notch, especially for someone like me who sweats the small stuff. Her assistant, Hari, was a big help and only a text away if we needed him (albeit with a significant language barrier, but with some bad Italian and hand gestures that was easily rectified). There was plenty of room for five of us to live comfortably for two weeks, and the rooftop terrace was an added bonus. Kitchen was great, too.
*Sidenote for Americans (especially): It became clear to me during this trip that we are quite spoiled by air conditioning in our country. While there are two well-working ACs in the apartment (in the master bedroom and the main living room), it was extremely hot and humid in southern Italy in July and August. Be prepared to be hot in the other two bedrooms and the portion of the house that isn't temp controlled if you travel there in the summer months.
