The hospitality and generosity of Salvino and his family are much praised in the Vrbo reviews, and deservedly so: Salvino (and his daughter Roberta and son Domenico) is a magnificent host, and the appartment a perfect base for enjoying Ostuni.

Great location and rooftop terrace
Stayed 5 nights in October. Great location - walk 5 min to city center, 1 min to cheap but tasty pizza and a self-serve laundromat, and 8 min to Carrefour market. Stairs from street level to first floor, steep but good handrails. Kitchen well-equipped, good seating, left us fruit and snacks on arrival, good bathroom with shower. Circular stairs up to second-floor bathroom; low ceiling due to domed roof, we thought it was fun. Second bathroom with toilet only. Stairs up to two-level rooftop terrace, which was fantastic. We had a great time and our host could not have been nicer.

Quaint, Charming, and Friendly
We arrived early afternoon and were greeted by kind and friendly Silvano. We knew from the minute he led us to the home this was going to be the perfect location. It’s located a short walk from everything you need or want to see. We loved the uniqueness of the home. High kitchen ceilings, spiral staircase to bedroom, and a wonderful rooftop terrace to relax on with a glass of wine or afternoon lunch. Being on the road for several weeks, the clothesline allowed us to catch up on washing and drying our laundry. It was HOME! Siamo arrivati nel primo pomeriggio e siamo stati accolti dal gentile e cordiale Silvano. Sapevamo dal momento in cui ci ha portato a casa questa sarebbe stata la posizione perfetta. Si trova a pochi passi da tutto ciò di cui avete bisogno o che volete vedere. Ci è piaciuta molto l'unicità della casa. Soffitti alti della cucina, scala a chiocciola per la camera da letto e una meravigliosa terrazza sul tetto per rilassarsi con un bicchiere di vino o un pranzo pomeridiano. Essendo in viaggio per diverse settimane, lo stendibiancheria ci ha permesso di recuperare il lavaggio e l'asciugatura del nostro bucato. Era CASA

Charm and comfort in the best location
This charming apartment with a lovely rooftop terrace was a perfect home for us in Ostuni. From here we could explore the Adriatic coast and the inland towns of Alberobello, Locorotondo, etc. The host Silvano welcomed us warmly and even saved a parking spot for us, mere steps from the apartment. We appreciated the delicious sweets and fruit that awaited us. Throughout our stay Silvano was at our disposal should we have questions or need anything. The apartment is well furnished in a charming manner. Kitchen is well equipped and everything is spotlessly clean. The terrace is a lovely place to sip a glass of wine before or after going out for dinner. When we left, Silvano bid us goodbye in person. We felt that we were saying goodbye to an old fried.

Surprising!
My husband and I were so surprised by the our amazing host Silvano! He met us at the train station and took us on a little tour and made two stops to take pictures of the two beautiful views. He then took us to the rental and showed us around and then left us with focaccia made by his wife and a small Prosecco to enjoy on the lovely rooftop terrace. He also checked on us every day with suggestions of things to do. We will never forget him!! The flat is in a perfect location and very clean and comfortable.

Cute house Less than 5 Minute Walk to Town Center
The house is very clean and is centrally located. We were given a very warm welcome by Silvano including securing a great spot to park our rental car. The 3-level house has everything, including a roof top terrace with a great view. We even bought local wine, bread, cheese, and meat to enjoy in the house. Silvano was very kind and he gave us information which enabled us to appreciate even more of Ostuni. We highly recommend this house and we can't wait to come back.

Ostuni Stone House in the city!
The property is beautiful, amazing city centre location and clean with lots of character. The roof deck was great for catching sunsets and having a drink. Fully equipped with two WCs. Communication was excellent from the owner, he gave tips advice and lots of information about the location and landmarks.

Our favorite host and location!
We had great time in Ostuni and partly because we felt so welcomed by our host, Silvano, at our arrival. He basically provide us with anything we had concerns to make sure we are comfortable and well taking cared. He showed all the spaces including upstairs and roof top while he was singing some songs and sharing his daughters singing with us. He and his family also prepared some local cookies and Prosecco for us to enjoy sunset at the rooftops while enjoying some bites. Silvano also made a reservation in a local restaurant for the dinner when everywhere was booked. Thanks for everything and hope to come back again soon!

Wonderful little place, very well thought out and equipped with everything you could need, tastefully presented, immaculately clean. Beautiful terrace with nice views, walking distance to everything in Ostuni. The family were very kind, I had the warmest welcome they shared local information, recommendations and making sure I had everything I needed. They were also incredibly patient with my lack of Italian language skills. I plan to come back again soon, when I have learnt some more Italian!

Best holiday home ever!
We have just returned home after 2,5 weeks we will never forget. If you are considering booking this VRBO: Book, book, book! The house is spotlessly clean and has everything you need: A comfortable bed, a well equipped kitchen, two bathrooms, beach essentials, aircondition (a life saver in the heat), Wi-Fi, a breathtaking terrace and much more. We enjoyed sitting on the terrace where there is always sun as well as shadow. The terrace is even more beautiful than on the photos! The house is very well located as you are a few steps from the centro storico but also close to a lot of local and very reasonably priced restaurants with great pizza. You are also close to the supermarket. Ostuni is very well located and we visited the beach, Bari, Lecce, Alberobello, Pugliano a Mare, Monopoli and Locorotondo as well as a beautiful masseria. What was most memorable about our stay was Silvano. My girlfriend has traveled Italy for many years and even though she has met a lot of great hospitality and kind hosts, she has never experienced anything like Silvano! He was kind, helpful and went above and beyond to make sure that we were enjoying our holiday. He wrote us on WhatsApp checking in on us and helped us with all our questions. He even wrote us to make sure that we were safe at home in Denmark! Thank you Silvano. All the best to you and Maria, Francesco, Roberta, Domenico and the cute dog Fiocco. We will never forget our stay and will return the next time we are in Ostuni!!!

Agréable maison bien située au coeur d'Ostuni
Séjour du 18 au 21 juillet 2022. Accueil très chaleureux et d'une grande gentillesse par le père de Domenico qui est venu nous chercher à la gare et nous y a ramené en fin de séjour. Au bout de quelques minutes, on a le sentiment de faire déjà un peu partie de la famille. Maison fonctionnelle, récemment rénovée et bien équipée, avec une terrasse sur le toit agréable où s'installer pour déjeuner ou prendre l'aperitivo. Chambre atypique sous alcove. L'appartement est à moins de 2 mn à pied du centre d'Ostuni et, à l'opposé, de la fermata des bus vers les plages. Nous recommandons sans réserve la location.
