We stayed in Valentina's apartment for one amazing week in August.
The flat is a nice base to explore the "lower" part of Puglia. The sandy beaches in Porto Cesareo are just less then ten minutes away by foot (btw you can snorkel there). The terrace has a postcard view over the sea; you can see the seaman selling their catch from boats in the mornings. Nice pizzeria is door in door on the opposite site of the building.
The flat itself is brightly lit and bigger in reality than on the pics; it is well equipped (iron, air condition, washing machine and etc).
It was a pleasure to communicate with Valentina and her parents. She is very nice, helpful and responsive.
Our flight was delayed and she waited us till late in the night and kindly left some food in the frigde - that was so thoughtful.
When Puglia is in our travel plans once again we will definitely be back to Valentina's apartment (and then we will put her husband's restaurant on our itinerary, that we unfortunately have missed this time).
