Giuliana's villa is perfect in every way. We were a party of 16 people, four different families, and there was plenty of room and space for all of us. The house was so easy to stay in, and everything is near so there is no need to get in the car unless you want to make a special trip to another beach or town. There is a great Pizzeria five minutes walk away, and a choice of three gelaterias and the supermarket is also five minutes walk away. The rooms all have their own ensuite bathrooms and the pool is huge - with lots of really comfy loungers on the side. The gardens have beautiful palm trees and we had views of glorious orange sunsets every night. The beach is a ten minute stroll away and we found a great restaurant right on the beach, just another ten minutes walk up the coast where we had grilled vegetables, squid, sword fish and plenty of cold white wine! We did a day trip to a beach near Gallipolli which was lively and fun, and only 45 minutes drive away, on the opposite coast. The tennis court is a dream - we played every day, and there is a ping pong table which was great fun to have. There are lots of choices as to where to eat meals at the villa - by the pool, by the barbecue area, inside the lounge area - and there are so many comfy chairs to relax in. The cleaners came every day and we felt very spoilt having our beds made and the house swept. Giuliana was so helpful with everything and she even helped us get antibiotics from the pharmacy when my daughter needed them. Giuliana is the perfect host and I would highly recommend this villa and hope to have the chance to return for another holiday there soon.
