This is a beautiful villa to stay in, in a truly beautiful place. The garden is beautifully landscaped and I loved reading books on the hammock to the sounds of the clear sea below. I think it would be hard to better the big glass doors looking over the Adriatic on the rocking chair at night. The villa is beautifully and uniquely decorated. Franco is a kind, extremely pleasant, helpful and responsive host. We left before the season opened a few days later so it was a quieter time of year and most of the restaurants in the seaside coastal towns were shut but had the beaches mostly to ourselves. I'll bring my bike next time as it would be so much better for visiting the nearby coves and ports. The bigger supermarkets are about 3km away in Tricase and I don't have the skills or blood pressure for driving through the narrow streets in Italy in the smaller towns. Loved it. Hopefully will be back.
