Rivabella, I mean, the name alone speaks for itself, doesn't it? And what could be better than a direct access to the beach right after you stepped out of your condo? Well, this is what it's like to spend your holiday at Residence Pinetamare. You can hear and view the sea from your balcony, which is spacious and perfect for breakfast and dinner. The nearby beach is stunning, super clean and worth walking along its shore any time you want to. The apartment itself is functional, clean and offers everything you'd possibly need for your stay, including a washing machine.
No words can describe the nearby area. A few miles away from Rivabella you will find Gallipolli with its romantic alleys, beautiful harbour sceneries and loads of typical and outstanding restaurants who stick true to the Puglian food culture. Make sure you bring stretch clothes cos you certainly gonna gain some weight. Also make sure you visit Lecce and taste some awesome pizza at Pizzicotto. We received so many restaurant recommendations for the area and we'd have needed three more weeks in order to try 'em all. Definitely check out Porto Antico in Gallipolli and L'Ostricario at Conchiglie beach in order to enjoy authentic local food at its best.
Needless to say that there are several beaches in the area that deserve further attention, we really had a great time at Punta de la Suina, Punta Prosciutto and Spiaggia di Pescoluse, just to name a few. The water is very clean and every beach offers a different feeling.
Last but not least I have to give a huge thank you Roberta and Anna who did an awesome job, from the warm welcome until the last day of our stay everything was perfect and no questions remained unanswered. Thank you so much, we deeply appreciate what you did for us.
Definitely recommended and on our "we have to go there again" - list.
Mille Grazie, Puglia - you rock!
