Great stay! We had a wonderful time at Gallipoli. The place is conveniently located close to the beach, restaurants, and supermarkets. Once we parked the car we did not have to drive anywhere. All we did was RELAX! Our routine was beach-apartment-restaurant-beach-repeat. The best part of Maria’s place are the hosts (Maria and Tommaso), the attention to detail that they put into everything, and the local people. We were received with a basket of local products, it was nice to cook Rigatoni after driving 5 hours, and my 4 years old devoured the bag of cookies. The apartment was sparkling clean, and has foldable chairs and a beach umbrella, which was great because we did not bring any. In the mornings we got freshly baked Cornetti with Capuccino for breakfast at the balcony overlooking the Ionian sea. At check out Tommaso brought us a bottle of local Red Wine putting a smile on my wife’s face. Overall we had a blast and will definitely go back and stay at Maria’s place again.
