Our time at the Trullo was by far the most relaxing and enchanting part of our trip to Italy. The separation from the hustle and bustle and the close proximity to the sea allowed us to enjoy tranquility and beach time. We enjoyed lots of regional cuisine and fresh seafood. The Trullo was also in an ideal location to take day and half day trips to Lecce, Leuca, Gallipoli, Otranto and beyond. This location has an amazing rustic feel and we felt like we had been taken back in time with the huge, old olive trees surrounding us and wood shutters on all the windows. Francesco was extremely generous (greeting us with a bottle of local wine and providing juice, cafe and breakfast items) as well as sincere in his local restaurant recommendations! The kitchen is fully stocked for cooking which was a great reprieve from eating out. Our favorite memories were sunsets on the roof accompanied by wine, and joined by the house kitty. Definitely an experience we will remember for a life time.
