Ignazio’s “a Chiccara” is a beautiful and comfortable apartment in the old town of Gallipoli. It is in a tiny quiet corner of a side street close to the action and the sea. The space looks small at first glance, but doesn’t feel small at all. It is beautifully done, honoring the traditional architecture and original building with some stylish modern accents. The shower in particular is fantastic, but everything is immaculate and great quality. The bed rolls out from under a little built-in storage area and is quite comfortable. Having come in from a very early flight, we slept 13 hours the first night. There are a lot of little built-in nooks and spaces for storage, which we didn’t need for a two-night stay, but were cute and interesting nonetheless. Ignazio and Katarina met us, were very friendly, recommended some good places to eat, and provided some snacks and breakfast food, which was helpful. I would definitely stay here again!
