We stayed two people in Elenas appartment for 5 nights in first part of July. After reading the description and earlier reviews, our expectations were quite high, and they were met completely!
Elena is a great communicator, and gave good advices before the trip. We decided to not rent a car when we arrived to Bari airport. Elena arranged so that her brother picked us up, and took us directly to Polignano for a good rate compared to taxi.
The appartment has a great location with fantastic seaview, especially from the roof terrace, but also from the window of the living room.
It is well equipped with what you need, including good A/C and wifi.
There is a great range of good restaurants and bars just outside.
Some of previous reviews commented on noise from the nearby restaurant, but we did not experience that as a big problem. When you close the windows, it is very quiet, but we mostly kept it open.
We used the main beach just once. It was not overcrowded when we stayed there, but we spent most of the time around the Spiaggia di Ponte dei Lapilli.
Maybe the only thing to warn about, is that since the appartment is composed of three floors, there are some quite steep stairs, so it is not suited for people having problems with that.
We strongly recommend Elenas place!
