As beach holidays go, this home is hard to beat. It’s right on the sand, putting the seashore seconds from your door. The beach is private too, shared between this apartment and four others, so you’ll always find somewhere to stretch out (there are two sun loungers and a parasol for your exclusive use). Inside, the apartment has a relaxed, beachy vibe, with lots of natural tones and textures. It could feel a little compact when the sofa bed is set up. But let’s be realistic – you’ll be spending most of your time on the beach. Or on the communal terrace, which we love for sunbathing or sunset drinks.

Local guide


About Taranto

Also known as the “island city”, the Centro Storico of Taranto isn’t actually in the centre. An imposing stone fortress from the 15th century dominates the artificial island, where you’ll find the atmospheric streets of Taranto’s old quarter.
