I strongly suggest putting Peschici on your travel list! We visited in late spring, before the summer crowds, and had perfect weather - and most importantly had a chance to experience the people and culture - it was a very authentic southern Italian experience. And most importantly, Giusy and Michele’s house is the best place to stay in Peschici - it is modern, spacious, and very comfortable - including very comfortable beds, and the view is stunning!! I highly recommend this place.
