Great hosts and a lovely relaxing location
Luigi and Pina were wonderful hosts, making us feel very welcome and helping us to get the most out of our time in this beautiful part of southern Italy. Luigi brought us fresh fruit from his trees and gardens. He speaks English as well as Italian, and offered us good advice about other places to visit on the Gargano Peninsula (and also the best times to go to those places). Without his help, we would have missed some of the most beautiful parts of the Gargano's beautifully dramatic coastline. But this property was also a great place to just be lazy and enjoy what was close at hand: a wide courtyard and veranda offering both sun and shade, clean comfortable rooms, nice views from the rooftop terrace, nearby waterfront cafes, and the ability to walk out the front gate and step immediately onto a lovely stone beach with great views up and down the coast. You have you choice here between organized parts of the waterfront where you can rent a lounge chair and umbrella for a few euros or the unorganized stretch where you can put your towel down for free, enjoy the water, have a snack and simply go back to your own private courtyard for a shady siesta or a meal made in your own kitchenette. Another nice feature: plenty places to park a rental car under the shade of grape vines or olive trees. If you don't want to cook for yourself, there are various bar and restaurant options nearby. The small supermarket and green grocer up in town has all the basic supplies needed to make yourself comfortable. Internet service would have been nice since we were trying to use our international data plan very sparingly, but we were able to use the free wifi at the beach bar just 50 meters down the road -- and that was enough to maintain some degree of contact with the outside world. We would happily stay here again.
