We stayed at this apartment during a holiday weekend in April, having arrived by train from Lecce. This apartment was right in the middle of the historic old town of Monopoli within walking distance of the sea, great restaurants and fascinating walking. Also nearby was a bakery, produce market and small family grocery, so with the well equipped kitchen we could eat some meals in the apartment. The bed was quite comfy and the living area was well designed and decorated in a warm and homey manner. The owners, Anna and Eduardo, had excellent English language skills in an area where English is not so common (our Italian consists of a few key words and phrases). This was invaluable to us. Plus, Anna was so kind and assisted us with a smile when we needed some assistance with a few of our questions and needs. This all made Monopoli the best of our Puglia experiences over the time of our three week trip to the region from our Roma starting point. We plan to return in the near future.
