"Pros: * Enclosed yard with private parking * Plenty of greenery and flowers on the property * Smooth and friendly communication with the host * Helpful local tips from the host (grocery shopping, park & ride in Bari) * Clear instructions for using appliances and disposing of waste * Thoughtful welcome gift from the host * Close to a supermarket * Kid-friendly (high chairs, baby cot, etc.) * Outdoor area with toy bikes and cars for children Cons: *Toy bikes and cars were sun-damaged and some were broken * Very thin walls — you can hear everything happening in the neighboring unit * The bathroom could use some maintenance (unstable toilet seat, flushing issues with water flowing continuously until you activated the secondary flushing button) * Limited kitchen utensils and cutlery; knives were dull, not too many plates/ bowls * Small ants on the floor * Only one replacement garbage bag provided for a 3-night stay, and none for recyclables despite recycling instructions * Frying pans were scratched and had peeling Teflon coating — should be replaced for safety * Ongoing construction near the property made it quite noisy during the day (no chance for a midday nap) * Some old or broken outdoor furniture/items were left visible in the yard — likely due to early season opening, but still noticeable" ~Diana

"Pros: Paulo was an excellent host particularly when rescuing my stupid booking mistake and with useful advice and recommendations Good facilities inside and out including pool and BBQ area which we didn't use much as a tad cold and windy. Would be great for kids too as lots of play equipment Some external areas looking a bit tired probably due to being end of season but can see Paulo updating all the time Coop supermarket nearby Cons: Slightly further out of town than we realised and not near the beach, but easy and cheap to get into Bari and other areas by bus/train Would be excellent if you have a car" ~Sara

"Pros: Spacious villa located in a quiet place with a big yard with a lot of amenities, good wifi and very confortable. Owner provided bikes, which were useful because the closest supermarket is not very close if you have to walk. Cons: It's not a complaint as such, just a note that the fridge didn't work on the first night. It was replaced swiftly on the next day. Better to be with a car or some mode of transportation." ~Borislav

"Pros: cozy and spacious house for 2 families - 8 people with sufficient equipment Cons: If you like animals, it's ok, they are calm, but you have to be careful that they don't get into the house." ~Peter
