Palazzo Penelope was absolutely fabulous and was a highlight of our trip. The pictures do not do the place justice and it is actually more gorgeous in person. Enza immediately made us feel welcome and at home. She left us some local wine and beers and even brought us some focaccia from her favorite bakery one afternoon. And was very helpful providing recommendations for restaurants, towns to visit, etc.
The location cannot be beat and we loved being able to come back and relax on the enormous deck after a day at the beach. I would definitely recommend renting a car so that you can see more of the region and the neighboring cities. The streets are narrow in Polignano a Mare (especially compared to the US) but we had no issue driving or with parking. We wish we could have stayed longer and cannot wait to come back! Thank you very much for your amazing hospitality and allowing us to stay in your fantastic home! Grazie!!
