My family had a great time at Maria Luisa's beach house last week. The house accommodated all five of us with room to spare. The rocky seashore was a short 5-10 walk from the house and a great snorkeling area. The kitchen was well-equipped and in Uggiano - just 5 km up the road - we found a nice seafood shop with great prices compared to home. We really preferred this area to nearby Otranto in part because Uggiano seems less touristy but still really nice. The main piazza was beautiful at night as well a great spot to sit outside and enjoy a drink or a gelato. Lastly, Maria Luisa was incredibly helpful - she sent us a list of restaurants she likes and described several nearby beaches and how to find them. She was really helpful.
