The location for this house is great. We had a short walk into the historic center of Otranto and easy access to several beach options. We had no problem with parking. as southern Italy is very hot in the summer, and this property has no AC, it was quite warm. We were able to get a good breeze with the doors and windows open in the evening. The back and front terrace spaces are great for sitting, eating and kids to play. The house is gated, so our kids could be free to move around safely. The washing machine was crucial, the kitchen was sufficient and we had plenty of hot water for the shower. The location is near a kids "park" that is open in the evening and plays music until fairly late in the evening. This didn't cause a problem, but just something we noticed. Overall our stay was great.
