Firstly, Mari, the host is lovely. She made us so welcome, and she went the extra mile to make our stay really enjoyable. She even arranged for one of her family to bring their daughter to play with ours in the pool, so sensitive and considerate.
The pool and the outside space is the real highlight. It’s a great spot to lounge about with lots of nice outdoor furniture and a big pool. The kitchen is really well equipped and the beds very comfy.
It’s a 15 minute drive from Lecce and 25 to beaches. We loved Otranto. Much nicer than Galipolli, in our view. Overall a great base from which to explore, with one of the best, if not the best hosts I’ve had during an Airbnb.
