Apartment holiday rentals in Porto Cesareo

Lucci d’Oriente exceeded our expectations. The apartment is spacious, cheerfully decorated and equipped with absolutely everything - nothing is missing. From each window you can see the sea, as if you were inside it. The terrace with direct access to the sea is a real privilege. Going up from there to the apartment takes some effort, but it's totally worth it. It is ideal for a family with children, very comfortable and functional. Santa Cesarea Terme is quiet, with some options to eat light and enjoy an ice cream. Parking lot next door is free if there is a place, and very accessible if paid. Rita and Stefano were exceptional hosts: attentive, friendly and always available. They made us feel right at home. We would definitely go back!

This place is beyond special. Set in the carriage house of a splendid villa estate. The location was perfect for us, between lovely Nardo and the gorgeous waterfront of Santa Caterina. Anna and Carlo are gracious and generous hosts, it was our great pleasure to get to know them a little bit during our stay. They are passionate gardeners and conservationists and this passion was evident in all that they did. We were greeted with fruit and herbs from the garden and delicious local wine. The casa (there are two, side by side) was spotless and beautifully decorated, the pool just perfect. We hope to return one day. Thank you Carlo and Anna for sharing your beautiful place with us.

We stayed 3 nights at Ferderica's aparment in the late October. Apartament is comfortable, has all basic appliances and nice tarrace. Federica and her parents (Molto Grazie) were always available in case of questions and very helpful when small problems appeared.

We could not imagine the experience to be any better. The accomodation is excellent, clean and perfectly located. Antonio was very accommodating and responded quickly to our questions. Did I mention the bottle of wine he left for us 🤣 if your heading to Lecce you will not be disappointed staying here..👍

We liked the stay in Marco's apartment very much. The view of the sea and the terrace with pool are beautiful. Beds are very comfortable. There is a good beach bar at the beautiful, nearby bay. Castro is just within walking distance. One advantage was the private parking on the property. The communication with Giorgio was quick and uncomplicated.

Apartment in a strategic location in Porto Cesareo , modern, tidy and super clean... Isaia is an extremely kind person and available to the needs and requests of guests!Thank you very much .... Highly recommended apartment Simona and family

The apartment is very nice, larger than shown in the photos and sparkling clean. On the balcony it is fantastically beautiful, the view, the tranquility! The old town and harbor are within walking distance by stairs. The supermarket in Castro A&O also offers everything you need, even fresh sausage and meat products. In the harbor are beautiful bars where you can enjoy the evening sun. Nunzio and his wife are very friendly and helpful. Thanks for everything.

Really nice modern apartment, it had everything you might need for a short or long stay. The tourist centre of Lecce was only a few minutes walk, we used the apartment as a base to explore Lecce and surrounding area including nice beaches only 25 minutes drive. On street parking is available but limited however there is a carpark close by so parking is not an issue.

Beautiful place. Nice views. Excellent host.

Perfect stay right near the beach that felt like home! This property has super comfortable beds, nice linens and many little things that made for a very relaxing stay. We thought we’d visit a number of the villages in the area, but found ourselves just wanting to relax at the house and on the local beaches instead. If we come back to the area, we are 100% staying here again. Also, although there are good restaurants in town, cooking was easy bc there’s a BBQ on the patio, lots of spices and pots/pans to cook with and plenty of plates/cups/glasses/etc. It’s a well stocked kitchen - much more so than many other places I’ve stayed. If you’re thinking about this place, stop looking at other options and book it. You won’t regret your decision. Thanks so much for a wonderful stay!!

We spent a couple of days at this accommodation and the first thing that caught our attention was the care the host has in every detail. Everything is very clean, the kitchen is very well equipped, you can cook whatever you want and even use the BBQ on the upper terrace, everything smells very good, you could tell by the candles scattered throughout the house, the sheets, clean towels with a very good smell. He made sure that the guests felt at home, he gave us a bottle of wine (very good by the way) and offered us a bag with beach towels to use as well as a list of recommendations to make the most of our trip. Every day of our stay we always emphasized the good decision we made by booking this accommodation. A winner.

We had a lovely stay in Maria’s apartment, the apartment was clean and really nicely presented. The bed is also extremely comfortable and the location is perfect. We stayed for a week in otranto and couldn’t recommend it more, the restaurants were all really well priced and delicious. The town itself is very peaceful and quaint. Maria was very helpful with anything we needed and gave us a lot of recommendations on things to do. Five stars from us!!

A very comfortable place to stay in a great area

The view is fantastic. Navigating the drop off and pick up of bags seemed like it might be a bit tricky as it's located in a historic no vehicle area but it was actually pretty simple. There are lovely terraces with great views but because it was just two of us sitting on the balcony for morning coffee and evening sunsets was perfect.

We stayed three nights at Chiara’s place and really enjoyed our stay. The apartment is very well located—just a few steps from the old town, with plenty of restaurants and cafés nearby. What we loved most was the terrace. We really enjoyed having lunch there (highly recommend grabbing takeaway pizza from Il Pizzicotto!) before heading out to explore the city. On our last day, we rented a car and had no trouble finding a parking spot close to the apartment. As noted in the listing, the apartment is on the third floor and accessed by stairs—about 70 steps in total. It’s a bit of a climb, but it definitely helps you stay active during your stay! We would definitely stay in the apartment again. Recommended.

We stayed for a week with 5 moms and 10 children in two apartments in Palazzo Stasi. We would give more than 5 stars if that were possible. Everything was just perfect. Monica and Leonardo are simply the nicest hosts ever. The location is an absolute dream, the view of the sea is magnificent, everything was super welcoming, clean and well equipped. The beds were cozy and the beautiful courtyard was amply played by the kids. We were even allowed to check in earlier and check out later. Since we were traveling without a car, Leonardo was even nice and drove us into town for shopping. He had numerous tips for us and was always super accessible and extremely friendly. And Monica was also super sweet to us and the children. A very warm thank you for soooo much hospitality. We will definitely come back!!!

Nieves was wonderful. She went way out of her way to make us feel welcome. She even volunteered to go shopping for us, since we arrived late in the evening!! When the hot water heater stopped working, she and a technician came out the same day to resolve the issue. When we locked ourselves out of the apartment she made a special trip to provide us extra keys. She is such a nice lady. The apartment was spacious and comfortable. The private courtyard was quiet and peaceful. The bed was comfortable. The linens were pressed. If we ever return to Lecce, we will stay here again.

We had an amazing stay at the apartment. It was exactly as we wanted. Clean and tidy everywhere. Great garage for the car. It was nice that the host had put out various snacks and cold drinks in the fridge. We also received good help with booking, for example, a taxi if we were going out to eat or shop in the old town. Very happy with the stay 😊

It’s a very nice apartment block, there’s 6 units in total, the location suited our trip, we were greeted by a lovely lady called Lucia who showed us around and made us feel very welcome. Our apartment was beautiful and quiet, very well equipped. I would recommend getting a top floor apartment as the bottom apartment we stayed in was noisy from people walking or moving chairs upstairs. My only other recommendation is that the second bedroom be fitted with a blind as the light shines through, this didn’t worry us but might others. We throughly enjoyed our stay and will still recommend you staying.

Simply paradise: we chose this stop in Morciano di Leuca to get closer to southern Puglia, without really knowing what to expect… and it was just wonderful! Hosted by Giulia, everything went extremely well! The services of this Airbnb are EXCEPTIONAL: the beautiful room, the delicious breakfast, the very well maintained jacuzzi, the nearby village is very pretty with good restaurants… + we were a 10-minute drive to the beaches called "Maldives of Salento". In short, we recommend it ++++++ Worth a 5-star hotel! Grazzie mille Giulia for this timeless moment, it was great 🤩

Happy to have chosen this home for my month in Salento! Availability and fantastic courtesy for check-in and check-out. Tastefully furnished and complete house both in the kitchen and in the rest of the furniture as well as very clean! Fantastic location for touring the lower Salento. Thank you for everything! Monica has always made herself available to resolve my every request! Hello and helpful! Thank you so much to you too!

The accommodation was very good and as advertised. The big plus point is the pool, it is beautiful with beautiful sea views.

I would give this place and host 6 stars if I could! It’s a HUGE apartment that’s part of a palazzo built in the 1400s. Luigia is the most charming, warm, friendly and helpful host ever! She makes you feel at home and does so many thoughtful things like stocking the fridge with food and beverage items, walking you through the place with the right level of detail and even made my restaurant reservations for me like a concierge. The location is 2 mini blocks off the main square yet tranquil as can be. And the bed is the most comfortable of my 5 weeks in Italy thus far! I love Lecce, this place and this host! Can’t wait to return.

What can I say... One of the best accommodations we've ever stayed in, and one of the best hosts without a doubt. Domenico was wonderful, always ready to answer any questions, including valuable advice about the area. The apartment is elegant, in a very safe and quiet complex. Despite being in an active town like Gallipoli, the tranquility is maximum thanks to the independent entrance and the distance from the street. And... Underground indoor parking with direct entrance to the house. Fantastic!
