Words can not describe how heavenly this airbnb is. We are so lucky that we found it and spend the most wonderful 10 days in Francescas magical home in the heart of the old city of Polignano. I must say that I have never met a more wonderful and welcoming host. Francesca is such a lovely person. We had a vey late check in and a very early check out, and she gave us a contact of the person who picked us up at the airport for a very good price. She send us by email all the recommendations in detail for every good restaurant. - we really appreciated that. The communication with her was very smooth and easy, through whatsapp. :) The apartment is actually a small but charming and cosy white house, in a small little alley a few steps away from the main street in Polignano. You always feel like you are in the center of everything because there are all the best restaurants, cafes and shops literally a step away from the house. The house is vintage but it has the most wonderful charm. In the lower part there is a bedroom with a very comfortable bed (I slept like a baby haha), closet and a balcony. There is also a very small but cute kitchen that had almost everything we needed for cooking. There are all the plates, cooking utensils, oil, salt, fridge, cafeteria for making coffee …The only thing I missed was one big knife :) I loved the matching cups and plates, they were so cute! :) There is one more balcony in the lower part - in the kitchen. In the upper part there is a bathroom with shower and a sofa and the main and the best apart- the private terrace. I loved every little corner of that terrace. There are actually two terraces, one above the other, one has the roof and the other one is open so you can actually see all the neighbours and the sea and also enjoy the sunset, while the lower one is more private because it is surrounded by flowers. Everything was sparkling clean. There were enough towels and toilet paper for our whole stay. Francesa was so kind that she gave us a big shampoo for hair and body wash. Also she gave us a welcoming gift: rose wine and tarallini (puglia snack). There is an iron for clothing and hairdyer which is a HUGE plus for me. The surroundings are very safe but a bit noisy (a lot of tourists) so keep that in mind, but we did not mind that at all, because we enjoyed the feeling of the vibe of the city. After 1am everything calms down so you can sleep without a problem. Wifi works great in the whole house. The famous Lama Monachile beach in Polignano is maybe a 4 minute walk from the house. Everything is very very close. I think you can’t find a better airbnb, so book it without even thinking. You can see how much effort has been given into this airbnb (decor, personal touches). Grazie Francesca for everything ❤️
