Book this home for your stay in Polignano a Mare! The space is even more beautiful in person than the pictures do justice. The home is located in the heart of the citta storica and is minutes walking distance from everything there is to see and do. While you are so close to all of the touristic destinations, the location is still pretty quiet and feels off the beaten path. It is situated along one of the most beautiful streets in the old town, with succulents and flowers draped from and lining it and the neighboring homes. in fact, the beautiful plants that were in all of the windows and outdoor spaces of this home were my favorite part! You will love having an espresso out on your private covered patio in the morning and coming home in the evening to soak up some evening sun and enjoy a glass of wine on the second terrace overlooking the old town and the sea. There is an air conditioner in the bedroom which was nice for keeping comfortable at night. If it’s not hot enough for ac, the bedroom also had a balcony and window which could be opened for a nice cross breeze. We kept the windows open most of the time and that was enough to keep the place feeling cool and comfortable even on a hot June day. Luckily, none of the windows look out directly into the neighboring homes so you can have them all open while still maintaining privacy. If you have mobility issues or are traveling with kids, this space might not be ideal as the staircases are steep and there may be the possibility of falling. This seems to be typical for this style of Apulian homes so this is not an issue with this home exactly, rather this style of home. When you stay here, I would also recommend that you visit La Cueva Cafe which is a few steps from the home. There you can take a break to enjoy a spritz or a cafe while admiring yet more beautiful plants and flowers. This was my first visit to Polignono and I hope to return someday - if I do I would absolutely rent this home again!
