This is a beautiful historic home with a balcony overlooking the beach in Polignano a Mare. It is honestly one of the very best locations in the city! Very clean and spacious, beautifully decorated. The kitchen was very well equipped and had enough room for multiple cooks as often happens on vacation. The balcony is without question the prettiest one on the wall in a Venetian style! Dilly’s assistant, Mrs Milena, was so very nice and helpful. She met us at the assigned parking lot where she had arranged transport for us and our luggage. Then she gave us a personal tour of the house that Dilly’s grandfather built and her father was born in. The lower level is actually older dating to 1500s. Some things to know- this is an upstairs house you will be carrying luggage upstairs. Then once inside the ceilings are beautifully high! But the second bedroom is down a spiral staircase and has a low ceiling. Also a very cool space just different from upstairs. The house is well inside the walled city so you will need to get your luggage from the city gate to the house. Lastly you will need some cash upon check-in for city tax and parking fees.
This was one of my very favorite places we have ever stayed. We were all very sad to leave. The house is beautiful and Polignano a Mare is fabulous. Thank you Dilly and Milena.
