The owners found in Salento the ideal Mediterranean location for their holiday house. After a door-to-door hunt in the historic centre of Galatone they opened the door of this unique house of 60 sqm with 80 sqm of terraces on three levels, and made it their own in 2008. With 9 months of patient remodeling with local contractors and craftsmen, this house now features exquisite antique and handmade furniture and finishings. The well, the niches, the fireplace, the amazing stone vaulted ceiling of the living area were brought back to life in a more contemporary interior design. The huge master bedroom was rearranged to sleep comfortably 4 people with a newly designed mezzanine, and to create a large bathroom with double sinks and a floor-to-ceiling tiled shower room. The house has fully equipped kitchen, air conditioning/heating, TV with DVD, a large canopy with 2 sun beds on the upper terrace plus a fabulous open-air shower to end up your summer day in the best possible way. Sip your “aperitivo” in the front terrace. Take a walk and awe at the beautiful architecture of the historical neighborhood. Take the car to explore olive groves, ancient ruins, beautifully preserved villages, beaches and to discover the simply great food this land has to offer. Make your own Best of Salento! ## Property amenities ### Internet - Available in the apartment: Free WiFi ### Parking and transport - Car required - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils -

We stayed 9 days at Ca Mi in September/October and enjoyed our stay in this lovely little town, close to everything in Salento. Lecce, Gallipoli, San Leuca, Galatina, and all spots in between. Beaches on both sides of the "heel". All within easy driving distance. Ca Mi is a lovely apartment deep in the heart of the historic town of Galatone and Sandra and Valerio have done much to ensure that all needs and comforts are met. The home is beautiful, with vaulted ceilings, authentic and beautiful furniture and a modern two sinked bathroom! Their caretakers are wonderful people who took us for coffee on arrival and pointed us in the direction of our first dinner upon arrival. There is a basketful of booklets and pamphlets and an excellent binder of how tos, where tos that gave us great direction for our stay in Salento. A lovely stay in a beautiful area of Italy. Many thanks. ##### Jan B. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Stefanie M. 20 Aug 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Jederzeit wieder!

La maison était très propre et parfaitement rénovée. L’équipement était parfait et l’accueil excellent. Les terrasses nous ont permis de profiter au maximum de notre séjour en véritable immersion dans cette petite ville italienne (très peu de touristes). Nous étions 4 (2 adultes et 2 enfants) et les différents espaces nous ont permis d’être à l’aise. Nous recommandons vivement cette location. ##### tanguy r.

It was cosy but quiet and had everything we needed. My husband loved lying in the sun on the roof top terrace, reading a book all afternoon. Galatone is a beautiful little town with delicious local cuisine, especially the Trattoria da Santino which is one door away and makes the most fantastic home cooked meals you could ever imagine. We loved our stay here and will be back soon :) ##### nadja M.

Ca' Mi' has all the comforts the traveller needs, with the extra of being very nicely designed and furnished. The owners and the housekeepers took care of every detail to make us feel welcome, from the moment we made the reservation and received tons of informations on Salento to the moment we checked-in and stepped in a spotless clean house that beat our highest expectations. The real surprise was actually the location. Summertime in the Mediterranean is very lively and exciting, but the crowd can be overwhelming and stressful to some visitors. By choosing Galatone we could easily reach and explore every corner of Salento beating the craziest traffic, also knowing that at the end of the day we would return to this quiet, not touristy town that feels so far from the super-crowded Gallipoli. Which, by the way, is only 15 minutes away. A great trip in a stunningly beautiful region, that has some of the best we ever experienced in Italy for art, food, beaches and landscape. ##### Cristina C.

Sie ist typisch apulisch in einem historischen Haus untergebracht, verfügt aber über alle modernen Anforderungen. Für alles ist gesorgt - vom Dosenöffner bis zum Induktionsherd. Das Ambiente ist unschlagbar; authentischer kann man wohl kaum wohnen. Der Tourismus steckt in der Stadt Galatone noch in den Kinderfüssen, obwohl Potenzial vorhanden wäre. Ein besonderes Lob der Vermieterin: Der Ablauf der Buchung, aber auch die Fülle von Informationen lange vor dem Aufenthalt sind sicher beispielgebend für viele andere Vermieter. In Summe eine Ferienwohnung für Leute, die fernab vom Tourismus unter Einheimischen ihren Urlaub verbringen wollen. Tourismuswirtschaft pur gibt es dafür schon wenige Kilometer entfernt – wer dies möchte. Das Meer und lange Sandstrände sind nur ca. 6 Kilometer entfernt; schöne Apulische Städte in relativ kurzer Entfernung sind per Auto leicht zu erreichen. Wir hatten einen herrlichen Aufenthalt und können diese Unterkunft uneingeschränkt empfehlen. Danke an Sandra und ihr Team und viel Erfolg für die Zukunft! ##### Rudolf E.

Il n'y a rien à faire dans la ville de Galatone, il faut obligatoirement prendre la voiture sans être sûr de retrouver une place de parking le soir en rentrant. Points positifs : l'accueil, la disponibilité de la personne sur place, les plages de Gallipoli à 10mn en voiture. ##### Christine t.

We had a warm welcome from the housekeepers who speak english and german. The apartment was well equiped and very nicely furnished. The supermarkt is on a 5 minutes walk and there are plenty of typical Italian bars in the neighborhood where you can drink an espresso with a limoncello. Beaches are on a 10 minutes drive and all the nice, interesting cities are nearby. We really enjoyed our stay in this beautiful appartement and we can really recommand it.

We wanted the road less travelled, access to sites and beaches and a a good accommodation in the heart of a smaller town. We got it all! First of all the owners, Sandra and Valerio, left no details to chance even before we arrived. We had complete instructions for every amenity in the apartment as well as a thorough guide to sites, restaurants, shopping and contacts. The apartment is exactly as it is described with care taken to create a most comfortable place to rest and enjoy the town. It is obvious that they are proud of what they have created. The real gift was the town and its people. We have many stories of the generosity and sincere kindness of people we met- none of whom spoke much English. But it did not seem to matter. We were escorted to the lavanderia, welcomed by Santino next door, driven to restaurants by strangers, provided directions to bakeries and other shops. We spent a week there and we both agreed that we could have quietly slipped into the fabric of the town. We would recommend this to anyone who wants to experience the authentic southern Italian hospitality. A wonderful memory still. ##### marilyn g.

We discovered that we were able to literally visit and enjoy almost all of the major small towns and cities in the area very easily because of the very close proximity to Galatone (i.e.Lecce, Galatina, Otranto), and also spend time at several of the very beautiful beaches in the area. We had a special interest in the viniculture and olive oil agriculture in the region and the central location of the apartment in Galatone allowed us to visit several wineries and Massarias and to enjoy the wonderful food and wine in these locations. I was also amazed to discover that my special interest in the early pre-Roman, predominantly Greek civilization, which shaped much of Puglia's history was readily accessible since the area around Galatone and Galatina is literally surrounded by active archaeological sites and there is a very good archaeological museum in Lecce. Ca Mi was a wonderful place to stay as the accommodation and creature comfort of the apartment was exactly as advertised by the owners and as potrayed in the online photos. It was especially rewarding for me to know we were staying in an apartment that had once been part of the original medieval walled city of Galatone. The vaulted ceiling, antique furniture, spacious stone walled bathroom and master bedroom were fantastic, and the kitchen and cooking facilities easily would provide all the necessary space and implements for home cooked meals if one was so inclined - we on the other hand ate out every evening at one of the many very good, surprisingly inexpensive restaurants in either Galatone or one of the nearby small cities. To this end the owners were very helpful with their many suggestions for dining out and places to visit in the surrounding area. Their helpers in Galatone (Luigi,Santino, Ilaria) were also very helpful upon our arrival (making sure we got settled in after a rather long ferry trip from Croatia), and were also very quick to give us help in finding nearby grocery stores, laundry facilities, and understanding parking in the nearby street. The Tratoria just below the apartment was great fun for us and the owner, Santino, and his son, Luigi, were very welcoming, introduced us to local people in the neighborhood, and fed us very well our first night in Galatone. We will return to Ca Mi. ##### Edwin W. This review was submitted before 2018 and has not been verified. ### 6/10 Okay #### V. B. 14 Oct 2014 #### "Rumore" humanum est Die Wohnung hält, was sie verspricht: sie ist sehr geschmackvoll und originell eingerichtet, bietet optimales Lichtdesign und prima Möglichkeiten, gemeinsam zu essen und zu kochen. Allerdings haben wir die erhoffte erholsame Ruhe vermisst, da während der gesamten Dauer unseres Ferienaufenthaltes (10 Tage) schräg gegenüber eine Wohnung lautstark komplett saniert wurde. Herzlichen Dank an Santino für seine Freundlichkeit ##### V. B.

We had a great holiday and very much enjoyed our stay. The house has been renovated in a very clever, comfortable, sympathetic and smart way retaining all the character with a modern twist. It's a great base to explore the area's fantastic coastline and historic towns and villages. We'll be back! ##### Nick C.

Salento is beautiful, and Galatone is very central to reach with a short drive the main cities like Gallipoli, Lecce and Otranto but also all the coast and beaches. It was nice to spend the whole day out and then return to this cozy and quiet house to relax and sip a drink in the terrace. Ca' Mi' was just lovely, so clean and welcoming that we felt home right away. No hotel can beat that. The owners and the housekeeper had a lot of attention for us: both before the arrival with many informations on the house and the region, and during our stay with the housekeeper always available to help us in case of need. We would definetely love to go again. ##### Rosanna L.

The flat had everything we needed and even more. It was perfectly clean and we were very well taken care of by the housekeepers at our arrival. We also got their telephone number, so we could reach them if we needed some help during our stay, which felt very good! The City of Galatone is perfect for discovering the landscape, Everything was very Close, and as we got many suggestions from the house owners of fine restaurants, nice beaches and charming cities and villages, we had a lot to see and discover. Before we came to Galatone we had received many mails, with helpful information about Salento and how to reach CaMi. As the flat is situated in the middle of the old Town, we had the chance to almost take part in the everyday Life of the people living next to us. That was a great experience, which you never get when you stay at a Holiday Village for example. Our stay at CaMi was wonderful, and has given us many unforgetable memories. Thank you Sandra and Valerio for making our stay so pleasant!! ##### Anna Helena Axelsson This review was submitted before 2018 and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Ilse D. 29 Dec 2013 #### A very comfortable house ideally located We loved our stay at Ca'Mi. The house was clean and we'll maintained. We enjoyed the comfort of the house, everything you need is available. We loved the antique furniture and the characteristic ceiling in the house. Also the possibility of outside sitting was great. We fell in love with the historic city itself. We will certainly return! ##### Ilse D. ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Masseria dei Monaci](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Otranto-Hotels-Masseria-Dei-Monaci.h8763536.Hotel-Information) > > [Grand Hotel La Chiusa di Chietri](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Alberobello-Hotels-Grand-Hotel-La-Chiusa-Di-Chietri.h2528425.Hotel-Information) > > [Villa Rosa Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Desenzano-Del-Garda-Hotels-Villa-Rosa-Hotel.h1115070.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel La Palma](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Stresa-Hotels-Hotel-La-Palma.h1163510.Hotel-Information) > > [Lefay Resort & SPA Lago di Garda](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Gargnano-Hotels-Lefay-Resort-SPA-Lago-Di-Garda.h2239660.Hotel-Information) > > [Borgobianco Resort & Spa Polignano - MGallery Collection](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Polignano-A-Mare-Hotels-Borgobianco-Resort-Spa-Polignano-MGallery.h2492875.Hotel-Information) > > [Masseria Amastuola Wine Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Crispiano-Hotels-Masseria-Amastuola-Wine-Resort.h18147707.Hotel-Information) > > [Castello di Casole, A Belmond Hotel, Tuscany](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Casole-DElsa-Hotels-Castello-Di-Casole.h5058985.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Club Alizé](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Santa-Cesarea-Terme-Hotels-Hotel-Club-Alize.h4644714.Hotel-Information) > > [Trulli e Puglia](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Alberobello-Hotels-Trulli-E-Puglia.h5133571.Hotel-Information) > > [Paragon 700 Boutique Hotel & SPA](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Ostuni-Hotels-Paragon-700-Boutique-Hotel-SPA.h44563840.Hotel-Information) > > [Masseria Le Carrube](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Ostuni-Hotels-Masseria-Le-Carrube.h18177087.Hotel-Information) > > [La Villa del Re - Adults Only - Small Luxury Hotels of the World](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Castiadas-Hotels-La-Villa-Del-Re-Adults-Only.h8115105.Hotel-Information) > > [Grand Hotel La Pace](https://www.expedia.co.uk/SantAgnello-Hotels-Grand-Hotel-La-Pace.h968861.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Borgo San Luigi](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Monteriggioni-Hotels-Hotel-Borgo-San-Luigi.h527532.Hotel-Information) > > [Residenza Olivo](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Garda-Hotels-Residence-Olivo.h39084455.Hotel-Information) > > [Campeggio del Garda](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Peschiera-Del-Garda-Hotels-Campeggio-Del-Garda.h12531546.Hotel-Information) > > [Grand Palladium Sicilia Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Campofelice-Di-Roccella-Hotels-Grand-Palladium-Sicilia-Resort-Spa-All-Inclusive.h2032217.Hotel-Information) > > [Costa Verde](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cefalu-Hotels-Costa-Verde.h897883.Hotel-Information) > > [Du Lac et Du Parc Grand Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Riva-Del-Garda-Hotels-Du-Lac-Et-Du-Parc-Grand-Resort.h19471.Hotel-Information) > > [Tenuta Monacelle](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Monopoli-Hotels-Hotel-Tenuta-Monacelle-Chateaux-Hotels-Collection.h1467944.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel San Paolo al Convento](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Trani-Hotels-Hotel-San-Paolo-Al-Convento.h3605864.Hotel-Information) > > [Nastro Azzurro Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Piano-Di-Sorrento-Hotels-Nastro-Azzurro-Resort.h1060310.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Caesius Thermae & Spa Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Bardolino-Hotels-Hotel-Caesius-Thermae-Spa-Resort.h1797608.Hotel-Information) > > [CDSHotels Pietrablu Resort & SPA](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Polignano-A-Mare-Hotels-CDSHotels-Pietrablu-Resort-SPA.h4255084.Hotel-Information) > > [Relais Masseria Le Cesine - CDSHotels](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Vernole-Hotels-Relais-Masseria-Le-Cesine-CDSHotels.h23322225.Hotel-Information) > > [Masseriola Antiche Fogge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Fasano-Hotels-Masseriola-Antiche-Fogge.h19203272.Hotel-Information) > > [Charming 300-Year-Old Trullo with Large Private Pool, Garden, Pizza Oven & BBQ](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Locorotondo-Hotels-Luxury-Family-Trullo.h29488483.Hotel-Information) > > [Grand Hotel Parco del Sole](https://www.expedia.co.uk/SantAgnello-Hotels-Grand-Hotel-Parco-Del-Sole.h1566512.Hotel-Information) > > [Riva del Sole](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Giovinazzo-Hotels-Riva-Del-Sole.h1927818.Hotel-Information)
