Our Host Matteo and his family made us feel very welcome. Always on hand to help if we needed anything, they were very kind at all times :) We loved the apartment, it was clean, colourful and we felt at home immediately! The apartment was in a great location, situated very close to town which was good as we often walked in to find restaurants and shops. The most beautiful beaches in Porto Cesareo are only about a 15 minute drive away, however there is also a nice small beach about 10 minutes walk away. I would also recommend visiting Lecce, a lovely town with stunning Baroque architecture. this is an an hour journey by bus and the bus stop is only a couple minutes walk from the apartment. We really loved Porto Cesareo. The people, food, beaches were fantastic!
