This home caught our eye for its beachfront location, just steps from the Ionian Sea. You’ll have your own private garden, which opens out onto a private beach – shared with the building’s other guests. With two dedicated loungers and a parasol, you won’t have to get up early to bag a good beach spot here. To make your holiday even more memorable, your host can help arrange treats, like a private chef to cook for you. And for days out, the coastal town of Taranto is a thirty-six-minute drive away. It’s worth noting that the only bathroom here is an en-suite, accessed via the bedroom. With that in mind, we think this home is best suited to a couple or a family.

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. A little further back in time, this place was once the ancient Greek colony of Taras, and you can still see crumbling ruins of Doric temples dating back to 6 BCE –...
