Nando is a great host: Very friendly and easy going; he always responded within a very short time and when we met him in Ostuni he had some great tips for us. He also made it possible to check-in early, which was great! The old house is charming, nicely furbished with a mix of some antique furniture and Ikea, all friendly and bright. It also has a spacious roof terrasse (too hot in August to be used during day time, but nice in the evenings). The two bedrooms are fine, the beds soft but comfortable and being a family with two teenage daughters we were glad about the two bathrooms. And everything was clean. There are plenty of towels, tableware, cooking equipment and we appreciated that also olive oil, vinegar, and spices were there to be used. The house is located ideally within a 5 minutes walking distance to a supermarkets, the restaurants and the town beach. Otranto is a wonderful old town with an ancient castle, nice restaurants and bars and the local beach is actually quite ok and has clear water (we found the beaches in driving distance to be nicer, but this one was perfect for a short swim). The only downside was that in August the town and the whole area was - as expected - extremely busy. Although Nando provides his guests with a parking permit, this can only be used in certain streets and we frequently had to park in a parking place (nearby but costly). So our conclusion: We will definitely come back and would love to stay at Nandos place again, but preferably not in high season.
