Paolo was simply the best host we have ever experienced, so kind, warm and friendly and really went out of his way to ensure our stay at his apartment was comfortable and enjoyable. As we arrived on a Sunday flight, the train service was limited and so he was able to pick us up from the airport and take us straight to his apartment, he even managed to source a child car seat which meant we didn't have to bring one with us. He also ensured that we had the opportunity to pick up some groceries enroute to his apartment before the local supermarket closed as they close early on the Sunday. The apartment itself was the cleanest we have every stayed in and was very homely, modern and quiet as the bedrooms back onto a quiet side street. It faces the main road into the town centre so is very close to everything and only a 10 minute walk takes you to one of the most picturesque beaches we have seen Cala Paura, and 5 mins to the beautiful old town. When we arrived he took the time to ensure we knew how everything worked and pointed out some key places to visit and places to eat, which turned out to be great recommendations. He was very quick to respond to any queries we had and kept in touch via email. Infact on the day we arrived i sent him an email to ask if he had an electric kettle we could borrow and within 10 mins he was at the door with one, incredible service. The apartment was a beautiful warm clean space with lots of natural light flooding through the central balcony area (something you can't see in the photos) but backs onto kitchen. The apartment is fully equipped with everything a family might need for a comfortable relaxing stay including a very useful washing machine which meant we we didn't need to take so many clothes with us. The beds were super comfortable and rooms very spacious. Plenty of storage space too. Paolo very kindly offered to drive us and our bags to our next apartment in Monopoly instead of us catching the train as planned, which again we were not expecting and very grateful to Paolo for doing so. If we come back to Polignano (which i am sure we will) we would 100% be back to stay here and would recommend this place to anyone who wishes to explore Pologinano and its surrounding areas especially for families. Our only regret is that we didn't stay here for the whole week we were in Italy as it was a far superior apartment compared to the one we stayed in Monopoli. Thankyou Paolo for everything, you really made our holiday a memorable one and we look forward to staying here again. Grazie!
