This apartment was perfect for our stay.We loved Simona- she was an excellent hostess, took care of us and helped us with everything till our very last night! The apartment has all the close necessities- bank, pharmacy,supermarket,restaurants and the beach! If you want to see more beaches in Monopoli I'd suggest having a car as they're all 30 + minutes from the apartment and there doesn't seem to be much public transport. We walked to Purple Beach and it was a lovely walk. With the apartment we'd only say it would be great if it had a washing machine - but that aside, highly recommended we would definitely come back! We will miss Monopoli! Thank you!
