During the beginning of August, we stayed in Francesca & Rocco's beautiful little apartment while we explored surrounding cities at night and relaxed at Togo Bay Beach during the day. We ended up renting this property over another choice because the style was intimate and relaxing, A/C was available, and it was far enough away from the busy town of Porto Cesareo for peace and quiet, but close enough that it was a short 20 minute drive to get to the beach.
Photos do not do this listing justice - We expected it to be smaller and were pleased to find that is was very spacious.
It was always nice and cool inside, which was great to return to after a long day at the beach or ending our evening on the warmer nights.
We spent most evenings in other towns (Nardo, Gallipoli, Porto Cesareo), but dedicated one of the nights to exploring Leverano. Francesca and Rocco highly recommended we visit Ristorante Pizzeria da Franco for dinner, and we did exactly that. Incredible food! A great suggestion. And walking through town after a nice meal was a perfect way to end the night.
Francesca and Rocco were great hosts! They were a pleasure to deal with and were very attentive to our needs. The refrigerator was stocked with bottled water and they prepared a delicious pie to enjoy during our stay.
We can't recommend this listing enough. From beginning to end, inside and out; our experience was fantastic. We look forward to renting with Francesca & Rocco again in the future!
Thanks again for everything, Francesca and Rocco!
