Casa di Katia

We’ve stayed with them four times now, and Franca and Antonio made the holiday feel easy and cheerful again. At Katia’s house, the apartments are roomy and have all the comforts, from every kind of kitchen appliance to super-comfortable mattresses. Thanks again, and see you soon! Love, Eliana and Paolo.

Parking right in front makes things easy, and the house is well placed for getting around Salento, with the nearest beach about a 15-minute drive away. It’s become our regular place in the area. The apartments are clean, welcoming and fully equipped, and Sonia, Franca and Antonio are kind, hospitable and always around to help, even with tips about local events. There’s pretty much everything you need.

The cleanliness really stood out, some of the best I’ve seen. You can tell Franca takes it seriously. The house is quiet and well placed for visiting Salento’s beaches and charming villages, with no parking trouble. It’s also set up with fresh, fragrant linens and useful basics like oil, salt, detergent, toilet paper and a coffee maker with pods, so there’s no need to rush out to shop on arrival. Franca and Antonio are thoughtful and lovely, like having an uncle and aunt nearby, but never intrusive. Sonia handles the bookings and the rest of the staff, and she’s always available for questions. Thanks for everything, see you soon.

We already knew the village from a stay there six years ago, but this time Booking.com led us to a lovely family. Sonia, their niece, spoke with us by phone first. When we arrived, Mrs. Franca welcomed us so warmly, then showed us into the apartment and went through everything with us. It was tidy, spacious and clean, with what we needed to feel at home: fresh towels, with more brought over when we asked, welcome water and coffee, their own olive oil, salt and vinegar, laundry soap and plenty more. Whenever we called about a little problem, someone came to help. At the end, we got delicious coffee, a warm greeting and a hug goodbye. I really didn’t want to leave. Dear Franca and Antonio, now that we’ve found you, we have a place we can count on. Thank you so much, see you soon.
