Ontratoon the Puglian Coast

9.0

The location overlooking the Marina and next to the Castle was spectacular. Having an entire rooftop terrace to ourselves was an u expected bonus.

− 2nd bedroom is really only big enough for a single Sofa bed and no clothes hanging space

A perfect romantic getaway location for Aperitivo, dining and dancing.

10.0

The location is perfect, amazing views. Restaurants, bars and shops literally at the door step. Walking distance to the beaches. Functioning air conditioning, clean and modern furnishings. Huge terrazza to admire the view and people watch. Sound proof windows and doors.

− Lack of cupboard storage for clothes, no where to hang washing and no ironing board. A welcome pack of coffee pods, biscuits and water bottle like in many other properties would be a nice touch.

wonderful apartment and location inside the castle walls with lovely views out to sea

9.0

The location, the lovely terrace overlooking the sea , marina and the castle walls. lots of lovely restaurants, coffee shops nearby. Good location for visiting other beeches and local villages. We enjoyed the samll beach next to marina, just 10 minutes down some steps we found Free car parking nearby opposite Baia del Micenei Campsite.

− We were disappointed we couldn't open the kitchen outside door as the handle was not attached, the bedroom door was very awkward to open. We did report these when we arrived but we didn't hear back form the apartment owners. The Spinnaker bar and their music was loud at weekends and when on to one or two in the morning.

Lovely stay in Otranto

Lovely apartment and location.

− Should have some rags to clean off chairs in the morning from the humidity. And beach towels! No lounge chairs upstairs where it is protected from the wind.

A very central, buzzy location with stunning views

7.0

The terrace of this property is fabulous. Huge, attractive with the most amazing views. The apartment itself is tastefully decorated with a stylish, contemporary feel. The location is perfect for exploring Otranto - right on the edge of the old town and the harbour, with a sort walk down some steps onto a sweet little sandy beach giving onto beautifully clear, shallow water. There were cafes and restaurants on its doorstep which we used regularly, as well as some lovely clothing, jewellery and local produce stores.

− The main problem was the Spinnaker bar adjacent to the property (there may have been one apartment in between, but the bar was no more than 30m away from the terrace). It was quiet and peaceful during the day but played loud banging music through the evening until at least midnight, most nights until 1 or 2am. It was close enough that it sounded as though the music was being played in the next room and it did unfortunately prevent us from falling asleep until the early hours on 3 out of the 5 nights we were there. Also the apartment, whilst being abundant in stylish decorative objects, lacked anything to hang towels or wet clothing on. Not one hook in the entire place which meant we always had to drape towels over the backs of chairs. The property desperately needs a clothes airer - there's no point in having a washing machine with nothing to dry the clothes on! There is a tiny airer out of one of the windows but it's extremely hard to access without laying on your belly. Also the shower is very small which is fine, but because of that it needs a little shelf. My husband took a huge chunk out of his head after bending down in the tiny space to pick up his shower gel - he knocked it on the cube-shaped tap when standing back up and there was blood everywhere! Not a fun holiday moment and so easily avoided had there been a basic a shower shelf. Finally, the hosts communicate via text and I felt their responses could have been more friendly and helpful.
