Our stay at Anita’s was amazing. We live in Naples and had friends visiting from the U.S. who had heritage from Bari. We wanted to spend time in Bari and also show them Matera. Perfect location for that.
There were 9 of us total. 3 couples. Our 2 boys ages 10 and 12, and one more adult. Everybody had there own private area. 5 bedrooms each with its own spacious, clean bathroom and tv. The thing that we enjoyed the most was the outdoor area.
There is no indoor living room.
What there is instead is a great outdoor dining/living room area which is covered and also has a tv mounted in it just off the indoor kitchen. After our days adventures we would enjoy spending our evenings there and in the courtyard area which is between there and the entrance. Beautifully decorated with all different types of plants, vases, lighting , and even a fountain.
When we first arrived I assumed that this was an area that was a common space for other guests. To our pleasure it was not.
Another thing we discovered which we had never run across before was the local restaurant/rotisserie/ butchers blocks in the area. There must be at least 4 within a 5 minute walk from Anita’s. You go into a butchers block area where you pick out whatever types of wonderful meats that they have to choose from. After that you can either move your into the restaurant where you can be served, or have the meats you’ve selected cooked on a spit while you sit outside and enjoy some vino or birra while you wait for it to be done. We chose the latter both of our nights there.
After our first night Anita had our Italian style breakfast waiting for us out on the dining room area when we got up. Plenty of sweets juices,pastries,etc. I dare say that it’s the best air BnB experience we’ve had.
Thank you so much Anita!!
