Holiday rentals with beach access in Fontanelle

Lucci d’Oriente exceeded our expectations. The apartment is spacious, cheerfully decorated and equipped with absolutely everything - nothing is missing. From each window you can see the sea, as if you were inside it. The terrace with direct access to the sea is a real privilege. Going up from there to the apartment takes some effort, but it's totally worth it. It is ideal for a family with children, very comfortable and functional. Santa Cesarea Terme is quiet, with some options to eat light and enjoy an ice cream. Parking lot next door is free if there is a place, and very accessible if paid. Rita and Stefano were exceptional hosts: attentive, friendly and always available. They made us feel right at home. We would definitely go back!

Great host, great location (ground floor) directly on the rocky beach, beautiful small sandy beach 300 m away with management (Lido Pazze), great large, long and flat sandy beach about 3 km away - starting directly behind the port of Torre San Giovanni to Posto Veccio -, ideal for families with toilets and management. Crystal clear, turquoise water. The pizzeria is practically next door. 400 m away is a new, very good restaurant "Clanto" (5 Google stars) for Neapolitan pizza and Apulian cuisine The kitchen is very well equipped, vinegar, oil, spices, sugar, coffee…tools, etc. You can rent a boat in Gallipoli or Santa Maria di Leuca about 25-35 minutes away (the landlords in Torre S.Giovanni were not reachable). Very good starting point for exploring Ri Taranto, Santa Maria di Leuca, Otranto, Lecce. Unfortunately, we were far too short on site, but the apartment was only free for 3 nights... 😢 So far, we don't like the Adriatic side as much as the Ionian side

Great location! And guiseppinas its a great host ! Thanks

We loved staying in this cute apartment! Very quiet surroundings, but still super close to the restaurants and amenities of the wonderful city of Otranto! The house is beautiful, clean and tidy, and the bathroom has a very nice shower! Massimiliano has been super helpful and friendly: he lent us a pass to park for free and has been available and responsive for questions during the whole stay!

Amazing Place: Very clean with all the little things you need for an extended stay. Beautiful views from the terrace. We used it as a hub to. Visit the beaches of the area. A perfect stay!

Lovely apartment! Fresh and clean. Cafes, restaurants and beach within walking distance. Try to catch the fruit/vegetable truck. It stops near the apartment a few times a week. Really good and cheap fruit! Our host was quick to answer and helped us every time without hesitation. She even fixed a brand new high chair for our baby❤️

Had a great time in this Airbnb, very clean, extremely spacious and had everything we needed. There are two lovely beaches near the apartment as well as a good supermarket. Only downside is the distance to Gallipoli old town but we had a car and found parking no problem

Very well located for visiting the surroundings, the sea is nearby. Rooftop terrace of the house to share but with a magnificent view 🤩 (beware of rainy days, very slippery stairs OUCH)

This house is a real gem. It is located right at the sea. There are stones in front of it but you can go swimming, if you want. On both sides approx. 5-10 min are very nice sandy beaches. The view is amazing and we had super nice sunsets. The house has everything you need and the kitchen is fully equipped. The decoration is maritime and quite cute. It was really peaceful and we had a great time. There are a couple of restaurants in the village as well as shops and even fish shop. We were there at the end of May. Many shops and restaurants were still closed but 20 min by car there is a bigger town where you have everything. We really enjoyed our stay. If you look for peace and quiet - book this lovely house! Highly recommended!

We absolutely loved this place in stunning Otranto! It’s perfectly located near the historical centre, in a very peaceful setting. It’s really tastefully decorated and feels very homely. Nando gave us a high chair and cot for our baby which was also really appreciated. Nando is a great host and I highly recommend staying here!

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!

Francesco and his wife and children were so helpful with suggestions of restaurants and places to go and visit. The unit was exactly as described and met all of my needs and expectations. I will definitely be going back!

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.

Once again...beautiful location & superb view.

Very well located and tastefully arranged accommodation. Great welcome from Stefania and excellent communication! Close to the beach and magnificent view from the terrace on the roof of the house! We had a great stay! We highly recommend it.

We can’t say enough about our stay in Otranto. Giuseppe was responsive and accommodating and also provided assistance above and beyond what we expected. He was there for anything we needed and made our stay even better than we could’ve hoped for. The location was spectacular and the home beyond beautiful. The decor and furnishings selected made you feel you were in the palace it once used to be and it was so comfortable! A perfect place to cook a lovely dinner - it had everything we needed and more. Also perfect to return to after a day out to enjoy the soft sea breeze and unbeatable view with a nightcap and conversations of a day well spent. The location was in the heart of historic Otranto (parking was no problem!) and was walkable to restaurants, shops & the weekly market where we bought fresh mozzarella and vegetables for our lovely dinner. This was the perfect location to enjoy Otranto and take day trips to other Puglia gems. We highly recommend and would stay again!!

We had a very relaxing time in Vittorio's apartment. The large balcony has a great view of the sea. 2 beaches are directly opposite, only across the less-traveled road from the apartment. The free city beach with the wind-protected bay can also be reached in a few minutes on foot. The sea is crystal clear and shines in all shades of blue. The old town of Otranto is also within a few minutes' walk and offers a wide range of restaurants and ice cream parlors. Vittorio welcomed us very nicely, also gave us many tips during the stay and stayed in touch with us. The apartment is lovingly furnished and has everything you need. We recommend this accommodation to anyone who wants to spend a relaxing holiday in Otranto.

Grazie Mille Marcello, Claudio è Luca. The apartment is beautiful, so well equipped and the view was wonderful. We appreciate that you were all so helpful to us. We highly recommend your apartment to other visitors. Ivana

Thank you Pasquale and Paolo for the welcome and the stay. Everything was perfect! The apartment already looked nice in photos but it was even better in real life. The decor, the shower, and the kitchen had been redone. They had planned everything necessary for our stay with our baby: changing table, baby bath, high chair, folding bed, blender for puree, stroller and even a parasol and 2 folding chairs (which allowed us to discover the sandy beach, 5 min walk from the apartment). Parking in the garden, sea view, fully equipped kitchen. Washing machine and coffee machine with pods as well. Everything was very well thought out for us to have a good vacation. They even provided a map and recommended many nice places. The apartment was also very clean. We will be happy to come back for our next stay and 100% recommend their accommodation

We thoroughly enjoyed the conditions offered by Alberto's place, we had a very good time in the tranquility before the tourist season. From Marina di Mancaversa is easily reached in localities such as Gallipoli or Santa Maria di Leuca... also, one day you can see many of the tourist resorts on the South Ionian coast (Torre San Giovanni, Torre Suda, Torre Mozza, Torre Pali, Torre Vado, Pescoluse, Lido Marini).

Terrazza Doxi Fontana is a beautiful apartment with large terrace & amazing views from inside and out. The 3 en-suite bedrooms are very similar making sharing fair for everyone. There are lots of stairs to access the apartment so not suitable for people with mobility issues. Once inside it’s on one level and has a good layout. A great place to chill out. No parking available close by at the port so we had to offload luggage and wait with it whilst someone else parked much further away. Inconvenient but workable. Gallipoli was a lovely place to visit whilst exploring Puglia.

The hosts are very accommodating, I found the apartment a bit small, but it was ok for 3 days. The view is amazing :)

We had a fantastic stay at this beautiful penthouse! The views are absolutely stunning. You can see the sea from every angle, and the sunsets were truly unforgettable. The area is peaceful and quiet, yet just a short walk from the historic city center. Communication with the host was smooth and easy. I would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a relaxing and memorable stay!

5-nights stay with 6 friends Very professional host and service, always available if needed. Also, mid-stay cleaning service included in the price. Breathtaking terrace and very nice house with cosy, renovated interior. Excellent location 10 metres from the beach. Air conditioning everywhere in the house, easily adjustable to your liking. All in all very good!
