Apartment holiday rentals in Torre dell'Orso

Outstanding location with amazing views. We felt right at home from the time we arrived. It is a beautiful, quiet little coastal village. Giuseppe was helpful and responsive from the time we booked till we departed. This section of Italy is spectacular and the apartment is also a great base for trips up and down the coast.

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!

It was such a pleasure to spend a few days at this hidden gem, hosted by Emanuele, his wife Laura, sister Giulia, and parents Simonetta and Tomasso, all of whom made us feel right at home. We were spoiled by the daily breakfasts they prepared, and Emanuele provided many great local recommendations for us. The pool and surroundings are so peaceful, and the room was very comfortable. We could not have asked for a better place to explore Salento from, or for more generous and welcoming hosts!

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..👍

It was a beautiful stay. Giovanni was very kind and attentive. Thank you for everything! See you next time

Great apartment with charming host. view over the ocean is spectacular.

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 beautiful place to stay. Everything was very tastefully decorated. Great location close to the historic centre and the seaside promenade. Highly recommend

Great place to stay to use as home base. Quiet little town but 15 minutes or so in any direction and there is a fabulous caffé, beach, restaurant etc. The courtyard is fabulous. The kitchen well equipped. Great water pressure in the shower. Very responsive host. Description matches the listing.

Very kind and attentive hosts! Lovely place in a great location, highly recommend x

The apartment is beautiful, on a lovely street 5 minutes walk from the very centre of Lecce. The air conditioning is superb with individual units in each room. The surprise package is a large roof top terrace which is not overlooked and a peaceful place to sit once the heat of the day has cooled. We stayed only 2 nights but would happily have stayed for a week.

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 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.

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.

We had a lovely stay in Lecce, thanks to Marion. She was extremely kind and welcoming, and went above and beyond by providing thoughtful, detailed recommendations that truly enhanced our experience. She checked in with us regularly to make sure we had everything we needed, which we appreciated so much. The apartment itself was beautiful, comfortable, and full of character, and such a peaceful place to return to after exploring the city. Unfortunately, we had to leave earlier than planned due to a long drive and poorly timed flights on our part, but we truly wish we could have stayed longer. This was a 10/10 experience, and we hope to return one day. Highly recommend!!

This was a lovely experience. Maria Cristina is a very responsive host. She met us at the place and showed us around, providing suggestions of places to go and things to see. The place is a 4 minute walk to a wonderful public beach, where we swam every morning and evening. The town is filled with charming restaurants and bakeries. It’s a great location and a wonderful town with a lovely host.

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!

great location, short walk to beach and town but away from the chaos of the town. availability of on site car parking (additionally paid) was incredibly helpful.

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.
