The apartment was very clean and had a exceptional balcony with a beautiful sea view. The beach is only a few steps away. There is a safe yard to park the car. Since we were there in october it was very quiet and the shops and restaurants were closed. This didn’t bother us, because we were looking for peace and quiet. There is a shopping center nearby and Gallipoli offers a wide range of restaurants and shops. Maria and Tommaso were very friendly and helpful. They responded immediately to our questions. We had a very good time at beachfront in Rivabella!
