Gioia’s place is fantastic! Super clean with all the amenities you need; small kitchen, coffee machine, washing machine and dishwasher. Gioia has managed to fit everything into this perfect space and a great comfy bed too! Communication was excellent from the start and Gioia was waiting for us on check in to show us everything and offer local recommendations. You will want to ask her for food and beach tips as every one was spot on. The location was perfect, right in the heart of the old town, with a great cafe round the corner and all the restaurants and bars just a few minutes walk. There is a beach a minute away at the port and a good local Ape service to take you to further beaches. Monopoli is a beautiful town with lots of lovely spots for aperitivo over looking the water. It’s easy to visit further towns as there is a well serviced train station 10 minutes walk away too. We wanted a relaxing few days soaking up the sun and eating good food and this ticked all the boxes. Excellent value for money for such a stylish and comfortable space. Grazie mille Gioia!
