Although many guests space is not missing (over 200 sq.m.). In fact we have three double bedrooms, each with a bunk bed Ikea (they are very comfortable) and a ceiling fan. Thus 4 beds x 3 rooms + the possibility of adding another 2/3 beds in large living room. Two of the three rooms have a separate entrance, this way it is possible to reconcile the different needs of any time of entry / exit from home. The villa has two separate bathrooms, each with shower (plus two outdoor showers), kitchen and an open plan living room of over 60 square meters; although I am sure that you will be all day at sea, the real attraction of this part of Salento. Just across the coast Torre San Giovanni Gallipoli (Corso Annibale), and you can dive into the most beautiful sea of ​​Salento. The distance from the gate of the villa to the sea is less than 100 meters: there is a short path in the Mediterranean (in the middle of Natural Park of Ugento SIC) and leads to a low cliff, even very easy for younger children and, in addition all accessible to people with disabilities through a wooden walkway that is mounted in the summer by the city for some residents forced in a wheelchair. The cove is a paradise for lovers of free diving, thanks to a truly fantastic flora and fauna. only love the sand and do not want to take the car to go to sea? No problem. The trendy "Lido Crazy", with free beach + equipped beach is 500 meters from the house and is therefore accessible by walking for 10 minutes. The esplanade of the beaches, over 10km of dunes of fine sand of coral (the so-called Maldives of Salento) is about 8 km in the direction of Santa Maria di Leuca (who is over 30km). Along the coast the same in the opposite direction (to the north) you get to Gallipoli (15 km). The village of Torre San Giovanni is 3 km, but you will not go there for the daily needs. Near the villa there are in fact several mini markets, as well as bar, restaurant, pizzeria, church, newsagent, etc. You can have lunch and dinner at home with total comfort: the kitchen has an oven, large fridge and all crockery. The large living room has tables and chairs for large tables (we we did in the past lunches of August 20 people!). The kitchen is still large enough to have breakfast, although we prefer to eat outside, in the front garden or on the raised terrace overlooking the sea or in the back garden which is equipped with a canopy in a well-shaded rods and, more distant than a great fig tree. Right here there is also space for the barbecue (you should not miss the grilled fresh fish to buy in the harbor fish market). For eating out do not recommend Gallipoli (unique spenna-tourist resorts of Salento). I will suggest a bit 'of beautiful places in the medieval village of Felline (7 km away) in Ugento, Ruffano, Casarano, Lecce and Taurisano. ## Property amenities ### Beach - Beach nearby - Beach loungers ### Internet -

La literie était bonne, les chambres sont spacieuses. Etre en face de la crique est un grand plus ; la disponibilité et la gentillesse du propriétaire a permis de régler quelques "petits" problèmes. Possibilité de prendre son café et d'acheter de bonnes baguettes et des croissants chez Mauro (Ristorante deci Amigli) à 50 m de la Villa. Nous avons passé de bonnes vacances ! Merci à Mario et à son épouse. ##### Marie Noëlle P. Stayed 13 nights in Jun 2019 This review was submitted before 2018 and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Valerie O. 20 Sept 2016 #### Great location, great holiday destination! We arrived at Mario's villa extremely tired after a 3 day car voyage but were made to feel very welcome on arrival. Mario had brought us some lovely cheeses, bread, olives and melons (and a bottle of Rose wine :) It was very kind and thoughtful for him to bring us a taste of the lovely local food. The villa is spacious and clean and only 50 meters from the sea - which meant that we could have a swim whenever we wanted without having to walk to a beach or take the car. Mario was a good landlord and was available if we had any questions. We had a fabulous holiday in a beautiful country! ##### Valerie O. This review was submitted before 2018 and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Federica F. 24 May 2016 #### Villa spettacolare, Mare da favola Una settimana da sogno nel salento, con una comitiva di 12 amiche e amici. Mare di fronte casa davvero spettacolare. Ogni giorno abbiamo cambiato spiaggia o scogliera, muovendoci quasi sempre a piedi. Unico difetto: Gallipoli è un po' lontana e bisogna prendere l'auto (che non avevamo). La villa è grande e comoda. Tutto perfetto! ##### Federica F. ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [The Heritage Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Torquay-Hotels-The-Heritage-Hotel.h6036162.Hotel-Information) > > [Phi Phi The Beach Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Ko-Phi-Phi-Hotels-Phi-Phi-The-Beach-Resort.h8414130.Hotel-Information) > > [VOI Daniela Essentia](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Otranto-Hotels-Voi-Daniela-Resort.h50603017.Hotel-Information) > > [ROBINSON APULIA - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Ugento-Hotels-ROBINSON-APULIA.h2911085.Hotel-Information) > > [Porto Giardino - CDSHotels](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Monopoli-Hotels-Porto-Giardino-CDSHotels.h893025.Hotel-Information) > > [Savoy Le Grand Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Marrakech-Hotels-Savoy-Le-Grand-Hotel.h12430665.Hotel-Information) > > [CDSHotels Riva Marina Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Carovigno-Hotels-CDSHotels-Riva-Marina-Resort.h2429809.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels with Airport Transfers in London](https://www.expedia.co.uk/London-Hotels-Hotel-With-Airport-Transfers.0-0-d178279-thotelwithairporttransfers.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Hotel La Sorgente](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Fasano-Hotels-Hotel-La-Sorgente.h9794234.Hotel-Information) > > [Ostuni a Mare](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Ostuni-Hotels-Ostuni-Rosa-Marina-Resort.h3734616.Hotel-Information) > > [Torre Cintola Greenblu Sea Emotions](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Monopoli-Hotels-Torre-Cintola-Natural-Sea-Emotions.h24114599.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Del Levante](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Fasano-Hotels-Hotel-Del-Levante.h525291.Hotel-Information) > > [Vivosa Apulia Resort - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Ugento-Hotels-Vivosa-Apulia-Resort-All-Inclusive.h25054141.Hotel-Information) > > [Staypineapple, An Artful Hotel, Midtown](https://www.expedia.co.uk/New-York-Hotels-Staypineapple.h29051318.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Sierra Silvana](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Fasano-Hotels-Hotel-Sierra-Silvana.h863293.Hotel-Information) > > [Millennium Hotel Broadway Times Square](https://www.expedia.co.uk/New-York-Hotels-Millennium-Hotel-Broadway-Times-Square.h25449.Hotel-Information) > > [Borgo Egnazia](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Fasano-Hotels-Borgo-Egnazia.h2900484.Hotel-Information) > > [The Inn at Lathones](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Leven-Hotels-The-Inn-At-Lathones.h579464.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels near Bedford Park](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Bedford-Park-Hotels.0-l6246440-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Hotel Terminal - Caroli Hotels](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Castrignano-Del-Capo-Hotels-Hotel-Terminal-Caroli-Hotels.h895041.Hotel-Information) > > [Muz Hotel - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Alanya-Hotels-Muz-Hotel-All-Inclusive.h18358546.Hotel-Information) ### Flights > [Flights from Manchester (MAN) to Seawell (BGI)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/man/bgi/manchester-to-bridgetown) > > [Flights from Gatwick (LGW) to Granadilla de Abona (TFS)](https://www.expedia.co.uk/lp/flights/lgw/tfs/london-to-tenerife) ### Activities ### Packages > [El Alamein Holidays](https://www.expedia.co.uk/El-Alamein.d6035126.Holidays-City-Breaks) > > [Bora Bora Holidays](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Bora-Bora.d602861.Holidays-City-Breaks) > > [County Mayo Holidays](https://www.expedia.co.uk/County-Mayo.d6046890.Holidays-City-Breaks) ---
