• Paula (5/5): Não recomendo - A localização O quarto não tem aquecimento, não tem televisão, e o café da manhã é muito simples.
• Corinne (10/5): - Erika nous a accueilli très chaleureusement, avec le sourire. Elle ne parle pas français mais parle parfaitement l'espagnol et l'anglais. Le logement est très propre, confortable et à 5mn à pieds du centre historique. Il dispose d'un parking privé gratuit. Le petit déjeuner est copieux et servi sur place, ce qui est très appréciable Nous avons eu la chance de rencontrer Chiara au petit déjeuner qui parlait parfaitement le français et avec qui nous avons longuement échangé. Je recommande vivement Rien

• Bolognese (10/5): -
• Valeria (10/5): - I proprietari sono stati fantastici, ci hanno fornito tutte le indicazioni necessarie durante il nostro soggiorno.

Super consigliato

• Silvia (10/5): Perfect stay, the nicest hosts and beautiful memories - Our stay was exceptional. We dont have even words How to describe it. Domenico with Erika were excellent, they offered us so much help And explained everything we asked. Domenico was always there And always always provided sooo much. They are extremely kind And nice people And we felt like home. Dont hesitate to book this acommodation, the rooms are extremely clean, very big and they provide everything you need. We didnt want to leave this place and we value the time spent there immensely. Btw, the breakfast was very tasty And with a high variety!
• Michael (8/5): Comfortable stay with an excellent host - Good location a short walk from the town beach and historic centre. Clean and tidy room. Nothing not to like.
• Judit (10/5): Exceptional - Domenico and Erika were the perfect hosts, they really made us feel at home. They spoke perfect English which made it possible to have long conversations about history, etc over our very sumptuous breakfast. The location is perfect to the beach and to the historic city center., short walking distance. The room was large, comfortable and had great air-conditioning. The breakfast was excellent, with many home made products. Erica works as tour guide in the castle and took us and other English speaker tourist to a guided tour in the historic town , telling us many interesting facts of the town, castle, basilica. Otranto is the perfect holiday destination. The town is so clean and well organised with beautiful shops and excellent local authentic restaurants, sandy of rocky beaches. Highly recommend the accommodation as well as the location. Nothing
• Jos (9/5): Clean room close to the Centre and beaches with good breackfast. - Clean room, close to the Centre, beaches and restaurants. Good breakfast and friendly hosts.
• Kenna (9/5): Super convivial stay in bike friendly B&B in wonderful Otranto - The hosts are as friendly and knowledgeable as the reviews suggest - really nice people and genuinely seem to enjoy talking to their guests. This helps create a convivial atmosphere where the guests talk to each other too. Big room, comfortable bed and good shower. Secure storage for bicycles in the garage. Superb breakfast with local products and savoury and sweet choices. Very close to the town and seafront. Good wifi. Nothing really. But maybe just to say that the room we were in was very comfortable but very plainly decorated/furnished. It seems that they could make a little more of the large room. However not a problem unless you are expecting luxury.
• Steffen (10/5): Exceptional - Host is very friendly and speaks English
• Brian (9/5): Compact resort ...station, Old Town and beach all close together - excellent breakfast. Host Domenico excellent Nothing!
• Erik (10/5): Exceptional - Host (Domenico & Erika) were absolutely fantastic and made this our most memorable stay during our 2 week tour across Apulia. They were very welcoming and provided a wealth of information about Otranto and the region. The room had all required amenities and the breakfast was delicious. Domenico introduced us to the local specialty, caffe Leccese. B&B is only minutes away from the beach.
• Jerry (9/5): Superb -
• Amanda (10/5): Exceptional -
• Keith (9/5): Great location, friednly staff fantastic breakfast - Friendly and knowledgeable staff with good English made explanation and advice easy. Great location, a short distance from the sea front and and castle. Excellent breakfast. Nothing.
• April (10/5): Wonderful! - We had an absolutely delightful stay! Domenico was incredibly warm and welcoming, ensuring our comfort and making certain we had everything we needed. The room was impeccably clean and spacious, and the bed was wonderfully comfortable. We were especially grateful for the air conditioning, which was a lifesaver in the warm weather, allowing us to sleep soundly in a cool room. Upon our arrival, Domenico treated us to a delicious caffé Leccese, which was simply perfect for sipping in the sunny weather. We'd definitely have it again! The breakfast spread was fantastic, offering a wide variety of bread, croissants, fruits, and more. Our stay was nothing short of fantastic! If we ever find ourselves back in Puglia, we wouldn't hesitate to stay here again. Another great feature is the on-site parking, and the beach and restaurants are conveniently within walking distance, as well as being close to town. I wholeheartedly recommend this charming place! Grazie mille, Domenico! Nothing, it was perfect!
• Lucas (10/5): Best breakfast in Puglia! - The property is very well located, at the same time close to the main beach area and with easy access to roads to get in and out of town to hit to other beaches. The walk to the old town is not long and can be done by the sea front, which is beautiful. The high point of our stay were the hosts: Domenico and Erika! Incredibly nice people, always making us feel at home, offering the best tips. The breakfast was also simply outstanding, delicious selection of local cheeses, prosciutto, fresh fruits and fresh local pasticcoto - all served with a good coffee of choice!
• Joseph (10/5): Joseph marchese - The Host Dominico and Erika his daughter are the greatest people we've ever met. They are the most warm, welcoming, friendliest and they cater to your every little need. Beautiful room, terrific location and free parking in their yard. I would give them a much much higher rating. They are sincerely considered our cherished friends forever. Everything was absolutely perfect 🥰
• Delfino (9/5): Superb - Location was excellent, good selection at breakfast and private parking Cost...a little high compared to other holiday accommodation in the area
• Georgia (10/5): Great location, clean, comfy, secure and delicious breakfast with lovely hosts. - Location was excellent, close to beach, old town, restaurants, shops and train/bus station. Hosts were lovely, very friendly and gave excellent recommendations. Breakfast was also delicious including the almond coffee made fresh by Dominico every morning! Courtyard was also great, especially for drying beach ware. Room was spotless, comfy bed, fridge and air conditioning. Would 100% stay again when travelling to Otranto, definitely recommend to other travellers.
• Katie (9/5): Gorgeous room in wonderful location with the best hosts! - We loved our stay here. The room was so clean, spacious, stylish and comfortable. Our hosts were SO helpful and friendly, they helped us with parking and provided the most delicious breakfast in the morning! I would recommend this place to everyone! Nothing, it was perfect.
• Marilyn (7/5): Great location and parking ideal. - Nice breakfast location fantastic and great parking There was no outside sign for the property which made it impossible to find without contacting the owner. The towels were hard .
• Breda (9/5): Perfect location and very kind host. - We like the location, very kind host, free parking, very good breakfast and cleanliness. The equipment of the room was basic, but in the overall assessment this is unimportant.
• Karolina (10/5): Exceptional - The host is an absolutely fantastic person. Greeted us with a coffee, and shared a lot of great info about the city and region - the history, the places to visit. The room was very clean. The location is close to the city center but still very calm. A great place to explore Salento. The breakfast was very reach - a great choice of cheese and fruits- very tasty.
• Yovanny (9/5): Superb -
• Jenny (10/5): Exceptional - I can not recommend Dom and his daughter more highly. Absolutely wonderful hosts. We're always their to answer any questions, provide information or just simply a wonderful chat. Best hosts we have ever come across. The bnb is clean, modern and gave you the homely feel. We were very sorry to leave. Thankyou Dom and daughter for having us. Jenny and Kirk Hormann (Australia) We didn't like having to leave
