Beach house holiday rentals in Castro Marina

We had an amazing stay in their home. The beach is beautiful, and Dania, her sister and father were incredibly attentive. They gave us a wonderful basket of local products and were so helpful with restaurant and other recommendations. We would love to return!

Absolutely exceptional stay – beyond all expectations! We couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Paolo was an outstanding host – warm, attentive, and genuinely committed to making our stay as perfect as possible. From the moment we arrived, we felt incredibly well taken care of. The villa itself is just amazing – full of character, thoughtfully equipped with everything you could possibly need, and spotlessly clean. But the real highlight? The view. Absolutely breathtaking. Photos don’t do it justice – it’s something you have to see with your own eyes. This place is a hidden gem, and we’re already looking forward to coming back. Thank you, Paolo, for everything – you’ve set the bar impossibly high!

We had six wonderful nights at Elisabetta s house in Torre San Gennaro and it was everything we could have wished for. The description says it’s right on the sea and you couldn’t be closer without getting your feet wet in bed . It’s six or eight steps down to a rocky entrance to the Adriatic Sea . It’s very easy to enter and exit the sea , more so if you have water shoes but it can be done in bare feet as the rocks aren’t sharp . The house has everything you would need and everything works as it should . Elisabetta will help you with any small issues you may have ( we had none ) The area is small and flat with a few bars / cafes and restaurants . It is fairly quiet at the moment but the season is starting and people are starting to flood in . The bar over the sea is great for casual drinks and pizzas at excellent prices . The restaurant next door to Elisabetta house is called Zoki and is one of the best we have been privileged to have been to . Absolutely wonderful food .

We had a great time!! Stefania was very nice to give us advice for the area, to communicate for check-in and to greet us on our departure. Fantastic location right on the beach and a small marina. We were there at the beginning of the summer season so it was super quiet but with a nice bar open next door where you can have a coffee or a drink. I'd love to go back!

We arrived late in the evening because of a delay in our flight. Cosimo's parents nevertheless welcomed us very, very warmly, took a lot of time to show us everything and even got us a pizza. The house is perfect, nice and quiet, offers plenty of space to relax. All the basic equipment you need was there. The house is beautiful, modern and practically furnished and equipped with many small thoughtful details. The outdoor area is very spacious and offers plenty of shade. It's only a few meters to the beach, and during the week there were no people there. We had a perfect week.

This house is in a beautiful part of Otranto & you are so close to everything from beaches to restaurants.

House very well located in a very quiet environment. Pietro is very available and has a real sense of hospitality. Ideally located to radiate on the territory and with a small beach nearby (2 min walk) to swim safely and snorkel (which is a real plus, because in Italy the beaches are either private: overloaded, or difficult to find for access to the water due to the geological specificities of the coast). We were a couple and really enjoyed this house.

We had a wonderful week at Antonio’s home. It was even better than the photos and description. Little details like having coffee to make in the morning, some water in the fridge on arrival and cookies for the girls. We arrived quite late and Antonio met us to ensure we got in ok. He was so helpful with recommending some great spots for food, beach clubs, local activities, local supermarkets. In my opinion, Antonio went above and beyond to ensure that we had a lovely holiday.

Very clean and super equipped house. Giulia is always available and kind. Highly recommended!

We felt completely comfortable. Rosanna welcomed us warmly and gave us useful tips. The house is in a beautiful unobstructed location... you could take a creative break here for a long time! The rooms and the furnishings are very tastefully designed. The pool is truly a dream. Beautiful water! In the kitchen it has everything you need. It is important to have a car, as a good supermarket is already a 10-minute drive away. The beaches are very nice and the water is clean and beautiful! Puglia is very pleasant to travel in the fall. Not everything is open anymore, but it has a lot fewer people!

We had a wonderful week at Villa Palibella. The villa has exceeded our expectations, especially thanks to the beautiful pool and the care of the property. The entire area is lovely and perfectly maintained. Another highlight is the impeccable cleanliness, which made us feel comfortable from the start.

We (7 people) had a great stay at Sara's place. The villa is very tastefully decorated, with everything you need. Each room has its own ensuite bathroom. The spacious covered veranda gives plenty of shade in the sun or makes it possible to be outdoors even in light rain. The infinity saltwater pool with ocean views and the outdoor kitchen with gas and charcoal grill are a real highlight. Also the rooftop terrace with sea view, which we used for yoga sessions. The location is super quiet in a villa district. Villa has a fantastic tuff stone garden. Santa Maria de Leuca is within walking distance. There are smaller shops and a few bars/restaurants. However, some things were closed during our travel time (mid-October). Weekly markets, larger supermarkets and restaurants in the neighboring towns between 5-8km. Sara and Sergio (contact person on site) were always available and super helpful. Clear recommendation. THANK YOU ❤️

Excellent quaint house, wonderful yard, clean, and close to the beach. A great spot for my kids! Well worth the trip to the south of Puglia.

A lovely villa in a quiet location. 5 minutes drive away from restaurants and shops. The villa is a little rustic internally and lacks some home comforts. The outside area is stunning with lovely sea views. We had a restful stay and would recommend the accommodation.

We loved this place. The view from the terraces is stunning. The pool area is peaceful and we were lucky enough to have it to ourselves most of the time. You can walk down to restaurants in 20 minutes. There is also a basic supermarket there.

They have made good use of the space, all neat and tidy. Comfortable bed. A nice terrace outside to enjoy breakfast in the sun. Near the sea and beach. We had a lovely stay! Opening hours of supermarket and restaurants are less frequent/ regular this time of year, which is good to be aware of.

It was a wonderful stay at Assunta’s place. She met us at the door and showed us the place (including the gated parking). She also gave us many recommendations. We went to two of her recommended restaurants, and they were both really good. Porta Cesareo is beautiful, and it’s walkable from the house. Assunta’s place worked out really well for us.

The small apartment is really fantastic. The upstream street hardly bothered us, as the view of the sea and the dune landscape - both in stormy rainy weather and in sunshine is simply fantastic. We gladly took the slightly longer path to restaurants and shopping facilities (walking distance about 20-30 minutes) as the occasion for extensive morning walks by the sea and through the (seasonal) still somewhat sleepy streets of the vacation, weekend and summer cottages shaped Torre di San Giovanni. Overall a great starting point for trips to the whole of Salento. As often described, the apartment is well equipped with the small kitchen, we didn't miss anything here at all. The communication with Emanuela and her parents is exemplary. We could not all try the restaurant tips, we had helpful and effective answers after 30 minutes at the latest! Thank you for these unforgettable days!!!

There were two of us staying at the place for six nights and more than satisfied. May is before the season, so we were alone in the entire street. The terrace is a dream, but visible to the neighbors. Because we were alone, this was nothing difficult. We highly recommend the apartment, Fernando was a great host and was always easily accessible and friendly!

Everything went very well. Simone was always very responsive and the place was simply breathtaking. Very recommended!

The descriptions and pictures are very accurate. The apartment is easy to find if you don’t use google maps directions/navigation. The most direct route is to follow the “lungomare”, turn at AMU restaurant, and proceed to number 10. The apartment is on several floors, without an elevator. There are 65 steps from the street to the rooftop terrazzo and kitchen. Each bedroom is on a separate stop along the stairs below the kitchen floor. The apartment is the best equipped of any apartment in which we’ve stayed over a period of 12 years. Francoise is very helpful and responsive. She provided a great deal of local info and recommendations. Also, she can arrange for a parking garage; street parking is non-existent.

Dajana's place is a real gem. Clean, spacious, well equipped and beautifully decorated. She was very welcoming and friendly and allowed us to use the terrace which I must say was one of the highlights of our holiday!! The beaches are a short walk away as well as restaurants and bars. We recommend Captain Morgan for a delicious and fresh seafood dinner without frills and the pistacchio pesto ice-cream at Sacanfo gelateria. There's also a a supermarket nearby and several deli to get local bakery products. We highly recommend Dajana's place and hope to be back again 💕

Very nice, clean, spacious, quiet accommodation, with a beautiful sea view and equipped with everything you need. The location is very convenient for visiting the beautiful beaches of Salento. You can also reach one of the pebbles and one of the sand on foot. Our big dog also had a great time. Absolutely recommended.

We loved our stay, It was everything we hope for and Luigi was a great host. Appartment was very cozy and clean with brethtaking, panoramic view from terrace. Quiet and peaceful surroundings. Otranto it's a beautiful city with a lot of attractions, beautiful beaches, nice restaurants, bars and lovely people. We really recomend this place and would come back for sure.
