Every Stay Feels Like Home

Set off each morning for a different corner of the Salento peninsula, from Italy’s easternmost lighthouse to the island old town of Gallipoli, at this sunny first-floor room for 3 in Frassanito, with a shared garden and pool! A road-trip base needs to be simple, and this one is. Your car has its own private parking space, there is no kitchen to clean, and breakfast is already part of the stay. On evenings when the drive home runs late, dinner can be booked on site. Upstairs, the room enjoys a very sunny position, with air conditioning, a wardrobe and a TV, and free Wi-Fi for planning tomorrow’s route. Below, tables and chairs in the fenced shared garden suit a lazy lunch on slower days, and the renovated pool is right there in the grounds. On beach days, the partner lido can set aside an umbrella and sunbeds for you, so there’s no early start to claim a spot. Sleeping Room: A double bed and a single bed sit side by side, with a wardrobe for 3 guests’ luggage. Bathroom Bathroom: There is a shower, bidet and WC. Additional Breakfast Included • Shared Pool • Fenced Shared Garden • Outdoor Dining • Air-conditioning • TV • Free Wi-Fi • Private Parking Space (Car recommended) • Child-Friendly Please note that: A city tax of EUR 2/Person/Night is to be paid on the spot from January to June and September to December, and EUR 3/Person/Night in July and August.

A swimming cap is mandatory in the pool. There is no shuttle service to the beach. Bath linen change is provided twice a week. Location Close to home, Frassanito keeps its best moments simple. The dunes are a 12-minute walk, and the beachside tables of Giro di Boa are just a minute further. From there, a coastal path runs past quiet coves and a natural rock pool to the Secret Cove and the heathland of Specchiulla, all within half an hour on foot. By car, Alimini Beach’s soft sand and the sea stacks of Sant’Andrea are within 4 to 6 minutes, and the Alimini Lakes and Torre dell’Orso are under 10. The Cave of Poetry and the pine-backed Baia dei Turchi are both under a quarter of an hour away. Further south, the coast road reveals Salento at its most dramatic. Otranto’s castle and cathedral are 16 minutes away. Beyond them, the Punta Palascìa lighthouse, Italy’s easternmost point, and the rocky inlet of Porto Badisco are both about a 30-minute drive. Baroque Lecce is around 40 minutes inland, and the sea cave of Zinzulusa at Castro is 47 minutes along the cliffs. Gallipoli’s island old town on the Ionian Sea is just under an hour west, and Santa Maria di Leuca, at the very tip of the heel, is about 1 hour 15 minutes away. Brindisi Airport is roughly an hour’s drive.
