This really is a fabulous pl;ace with a great location and wonderful host. The apartment itself is in the historic centre (old town) of Monopoli located next to the Charles V Castle and a stone's throw from the sea. It is very well appointed with a great kitchen and living space, a very nice shower room, a good size double bedroom and a further mezzanine bedroom also with a double bed. There is also, accessed by a stone staircase, a magical roof terrace with separate kitchen facilities and another shower. Gioia, the host, could not be more welcoming. She communicated with us via WhatsApp and gave us great restaurant recommendations and places to visit nearby. I would not hesitate to recommend this apartment - it is truly something special.
