This apartment is wonderful. It is in a perfect position in the back streets so you get a real flavour of Polignano yet close to the beach, restaurants, bars and the old town. There is a mini market and bakery nearby. Paolo was very welcoming and is really helpful and recommends places to eat as well. He will show you on a local map the locations of restaurants, shops, beaches etc. and if you need to know anything else, he is happy for you to call him. The apartment is clean, has all the facilities you need including gas hob (not that we cooked but useful for hot water for tea and coffee), a comfortable bed and lots of cupboard space for clothes. The living room has french windows leading on to a balcony which lets the breeze in too. There is a lovely roof terrace with sun loungers so you don't even need to go to the beach. There is also air-conditioning so you keep cool at night. The streets are narrow and parking nearby can be limited so if you come by car, consider parking a little further away. We parked a 5 minute walk away which was not a problem in the slightest. I love this apartment and can highly recommend staying here.
