Apartment is just as listed. Directly on the beach with a small balcony over looking the beach where you can enjoy quiet mornings and beautiful sunsets. You can't beat the location for beach access. Also nice having a delicious seafood restaurant right next door. In addition to the beach right outside, there is a long, beautiful beach a short walk away which has your choice of lidos if you prefer. Marina is an excellent host who gave great suggestions for restaurants as well as tips for our day trips we did while there. There was air conditioning in the bedrooms as another review mentions which is definitely needed both for the warm nights as well as for quiet in the evenings for our daughter. We did have an issue the the unit in our daughter's room which was able to be remedied by shutting the door to the hallway and simply using ours to cool both rooms. Marina always responded quickly and everything was addressed as needed. There is a small market in walking distance or a larger supermarket about a five minute walk away. Rivabella is a small town with Gallipoli a quick drive away for dinners and drinks should you choose.
