Beachfront holiday rentals in Torre San Giovanni

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!

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 loved our stay in this apartment (4 adults & 1 toddler). It’s in a great location with an amazing view. Easy walk to restaurants, bars and historic centre. Pierpaolo was a fantastic host who was very responsive and helpful.

From the minute he greeted me at check-in, I could sense Donato’s enthusiasm about hosting in addition to his kindness, and I’m grateful I stayed at his fantastic top-floor apt. with an amazing sea view. After he showed me where to park (for free) and then gave me a tour of the apt., I began to explore the town by foot. The town’s natural and architectural attractions are simply unbelievable, namely its unique, jaw-dropping swimming spots and beaches. So, be sure to explore Porto Miggiano and Cala Porticciolo. During my stay I appreciated the comfortable bed, the darkening window shades, using the washing machine and full kitchen, the cross breezes, the AC when needed, making espresso, and, above all, watching the sea from the balcony. Donato has thought of everything, so whether you’re a single traveler, or family of four, you’ll feel comfortable in this gem. When I return to SCT, I hope to stay here! Thank you, Donato!

A great place to stay if you like it quiet and with a beautiful view of the sea. The amenities and furnishings were good. Communication was always perfect and quick to respond. There were also a few local tips so we didn't miss anything. We would always come back!

It was unique. We enjoyed the seclusion very much. Luckily, we were the only ones. Francesco was always available and Daniela always came by when we needed her. Everything was sparkling clean.

Lovely rustic villa, with sea views. Great location with an easy easy walk to town with cafes and restaurants. We enjoyed a quiet stay and parking was available in the street.

A beautiful place to explore wider Puglia from. Great host. Would return. Situated just north of Porto Cesareo. Car essential with parking space inside secure perimeter walls. Most sights were 45-90 minute drive. Modern, clean with comfortable furnishings and beds. Well equipped kitchen. Self-catered: 20 mins to nearest Lidl. Short drive to reach restaurants (10 minutes). End of October still warm and sunny in daytime (shorts, t-shirt and slides). Able to swim in small pool (very refreshing though ☺️) and in the sea at nearby beach (5 mins walk: sandy and shallow). Arrived after a severe rain so suffered more with mosquitoes outside which stopped us sitting out in the evenings sadly. Solar-powered hot water very limited (max 2 very short showers). No hot water from kitchen tap. Immersion heater did not seem to get temperature past tepid even after a couple of hours. Would be less of an issue in high summer. Out of season largely was silent around (beach club noise one evening).

Angelo is one of the best hosts we've encountered. He responded promptly to all our questions before we arrived, picked us up and dropped us off at the train station. He had wine waiting for us at the house when we arrived. We miscalculated the availability of bus service in May, thinking we could bus from Casalabete to Brindisi to rent a car. Angelo anticipated our need and arranged a car rental for us. On the way out he even took a detour to show us some features of the area we asked about. The house is in a nice location, right over the dunes from the beach. The yard and pool are exceptionally nice, with plenty of outdoor seating areas in a private setting. The house is comfortable, but a bit dated inside, with a small kitchen (although it has lots of refrigerator and freezer space) and could use some better lighting. This is a really nice place for a beach vacation.

We loved our stay in this beach house by the sea. Allesandro had made it very comfortable and provided so many extra treats. It was so quiet, relaxing and calm with great restaurants nearby and many beautiful places to visit.

A really impeccable, as seen in the photos Super clean and tidy! Really a great house to go on vacation Francesco is a very accommodating host

Absolutely exceptional stay – beyond all expectations! We couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Paolo was an outstanding host – warm, attentive, and genuinely committed to making our stay as perfect as possible. From the moment we arrived, we felt incredibly well taken care of. The villa itself is just amazing – full of character, thoughtfully equipped with everything you could possibly need, and spotlessly clean. But the real highlight? The view. Absolutely breathtaking. Photos don’t do it justice – it’s something you have to see with your own eyes. This place is a hidden gem, and we’re already looking forward to coming back. Thank you, Paolo, for everything – you’ve set the bar impossibly high!

We stayed in apartment 3 for 11 days, it is a clean apartment with lovely soft towels and super good beds. According to the site, it has a kitchenette, however it has a coffee and tea machine and fridge with freezer compartment. There is a large communal kitchen with a gas hob, dishwasher, large fridge freezer all you need is there. There is a large swimming pool with plenty of sunbeds and a place with lovely chairs in the shade. The accommodation is very quiet, wonderful if you like peace and quiet. Within 15 minutes you are at the beach or in a town. We had a great time at the Masseria La Noa and would definitely recommend it for other guests

We had an amazing stay at Francesca’s. We were in contact with Lukas who was extremely helpful, clear and friendly. At check in, Lukas met us and showed us around, he had many local recommendations for us. Throughout the stay he was super responsive and helpful. The first morning we woke up to fresh croissant and pasticciotti!! The house was beautiful, very spacious, full of light and extremely clean. There are many places to sit and many amenities like the pool, outside showers, hammocks and outside BBQ area. I cannot recommend this place enough. Thank you.

Great place to unwind with the pool available for use and the nearby beaches a short walk or drive away. The listing is as described with everything you need. Only downside was a lot of the nearby restaurants and shops were closed due to the time of year we visited. Suspect during the summer months this would not be the case.

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.

The place is a magic little spot with the most beautiful terrace. The bathing spot was a little challenging (at least in windy autumn conditions) but still beautiful. The kitchen was well equipped, the bed big and comfortable and the area calm and picturesque.

A wonderful stay. The apartment was very clean. The main bedroom is on the street so is quite loud at night and in the early morning, but the location is amazing for exploring. The staircase is tight and steep, but no problem for us. A lovely, well furnished, shaded deck upstairs. We were getting multiple messages a day from the lady who checked us in. About putting out garbage etc. Maybe all this info in one message would be better than constant messaging. But other than that we really had a wonderful stay.

We had a great time!! Stefania was very nice to give us advice for the area, to communicate for check-in and to greet us on our departure. Fantastic location right on the beach and a small marina. We were there at the beginning of the summer season so it was super quiet but with a nice bar open next door where you can have a coffee or a drink. I'd love to go back!

We spent a week in the villa with our children. On arrival we received a very warm welcome from Stefania and were overwhelmed by the beautiful view of the sea. The whole complex is very well maintained and lovingly furnished. There is everything you need for a perfect vacation. We felt very comfortable. We can fully recommend the villa!

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.

Daniela and Valentino are top hosts. Daniela speaks perfect English, and happily recommends things around, kitchen with extra amenities to start your cooking, breakfast etc even wine and taralli 😊 found difficult to leave il lentisco.

We had a wonderful stay in Gallipoli. The apartment has everything you need for daily life and is very quiet. The roof terrace with the view of the sea is simply fantastic and on foot you can quickly reach the old town. Clear recommendation!

The accommodation was a bit small, but the space was optimally used and the wonderful, large terrace with a fantastic sea view outweighs everything. It is modern and tastefully furnished and everything you need for 2 people is available. It was also wonderful that a lot of water came out of the shower head. :). The hostess' mother, Valeria, welcomed us lovingly, took care of us and was very anxious that we feel comfortable, which was really the case. The apartment is wonderfully located between 2 smaller towns with nice restaurants and bars, which can be reached in 15 minutes on foot. Private parking at the house is also available. We would very much like to come back.
