Me and my friend stayed at Casa Graziella for 9 days and it was wonderful!
Roberto and his partner Brenda welcomed us upon arrival and helped us carry our bags in to the apartment. They showed us the apartment en the beautiful rooftop terras. The apartment was spacious and clean and had two separate kingsize beds. There was a balcony overlooking the street. There where clean towels and they arranged a breakfast for us for the next morning. Also they gave us a map of Monopoli with places of interest marked, like a market and several restaurants. It was a really warm welcome and a great first impression of Monopoli!
The apartment it situated just outside the historic centre, it's a 5 minute walk to get there or to the city-beach. Most restaurants and bars are in the historic centre. The best beaches are about 10 minutes by car from the apartment. Parking is free, but it can be a bit crowded in the street.
Roberto and Brenda took us and two other tenants on a 'Monopoli' tour. We went to an olive oil farm, a mozzarella farm and a wine vineyard. Everything was arranged perfectly and we had a very nice time. Brenda was the perfect translator!
Roberto and Brenda made sure we had a great time in Monopoli. They gave us tips about nice towns/beaches and bars to visit. We could text them if we had any questions. The WiFi in the apartment is good and also there is a TV and AC.
We had a great stay and would come back to Casa Graziella anytime!
