Residence Jonico

A lovely breezy patio makes a peaceful spot for meals. The apartment is comfortable and very nice, near a beach with low rocks and crystal-clear water, and only a few kilometers from some of Salento's most beautiful beaches. The owners are kind and helpful. Recommended!

Marco is genuinely kind and helpful, and the apartments were spotless and very comfortable. We’ve just finished our holiday, and I’d recommend this place to families wanting a really relaxing break. There are pizzerias and restaurants close by, and it’s a good base for visiting Gallipoli, Otranto, Santa Maria di Leuca, and other tourist spots.

Torre Suda is quiet in the evenings, but this residence is a terrific starting point for Salento's beaches and routes. It's 500 meters from the sea, reached by rocks, with no sand along the town, but the views are lovely. Great for a sunset swim or a late-night nap. And the value is exceptional in both low and high season. Compare prices, and if you're still unsure, call Marco, he'll convince you. We've visited Salento several times and stayed in different rentals, but this year we found this place and Marco, its very helpful owner. Our August 15th to 29th stay involved three families, six adults, and seven kids aged 13 to 17, so it wasn't simple. Marco arranged three adjoining apartments, one for each family, and we could share meals in the large area in front of the two first-floor apartments. We ate together every evening and had lunch together a few times. Marco was attentive to everyone's needs and exemplary in his availability. He's both host and guide, and a real asset. Each apartment has two bedrooms, a living room, a bathroom, and enough room for a family of four or five. The units are new and have all the comforts. Air conditioning is pay as you go, but it's new and uses inverter technology, so it won't break the bank. Over 15 scorching August days, I used very little by running it 6-7 hours each night. The shared 9-kilo washing machine is coin operated and runs for at least 45 minutes, but we never had to wait in a queue. There are barbecues for every apartment, plus an outdoor shower with warm water at each unit.

Marco was polite, meticulous, and very helpful throughout our stay. Thanks again for being so kind. We visited in late August. The roughly thirty-square-meter studio was laid out really well, and the four of us were comfortable. It was very clean. The location was quiet but also handy for exploring Salento, and Torre Suda has supermarkets. The sea is rocky, so bring beach shoes if you're up for it. Best wishes, Mattia and Corrado ☺️
