Villa Lucia

A lovely lady, a clean and great place. I recommend it.

The garden is well maintained, and the house is beautifully furnished with antiques and exquisite pieces. Everything was exceptionally clean, and the room was spacious. Breakfast was delicious, though anyone who doesn't like sweet food might still feel hungry. The hostess was polite and discreet, always making sure guests had what they needed. It's a wonderful place to unwind in a quiet neighborhood. I recommend it.

The rooms are nice and clean, and the location is excellent, very close to the sea. Still, I think the listing has important inaccuracies. It mentions a swimming pool, but there isn't one. There is a refrigerator and microwave, but guests can't use them. The tenant lives on the property, though the listing doesn't say so. The dining room is only available at breakfast, and the living room is a passage between the two rooms. The ad makes it sound like guests have the whole property to themselves, which isn't the case. There's nowhere to eat in the rooms or dining room. That's often a problem in the off-season, when restaurants don't open until 7 or 8 p.m. I believe this information matters.

It was easy to find parking in front of the house, and the property is in a very quiet area. The room was clean and breakfast had a good selection. There are restaurants and supermarkets nearby, but you need to drive if you want a sandy beach. The room was a little small and very hot, though you can use the air conditioning while you're in it. It takes about a 20-minute drive to reach Bari Vecchia.
