About this property

Family Hideaway · Pine Forest & Blue Flag Beach

Wake up to the scent of pine trees and fall asleep to the sound of the sea. Pine Hideaway is your perfect family retreat in San Cataldo di Lecce — a peaceful apartment nestled in a pine forest within the Campo Verde residence, with private beach access, free parking, and the Blue Flag sea of 2025 just a short walk away. The ideal base for families looking to combine beach days, nature, and the culture of baroque Puglia.

Pine Hideaway offers everything your family needs for a relaxing and memorable holiday in Salento. The apartment is bright and well-appointed, spread across a comfortable layout with a clear separation between living and sleeping areas.
The living area features a fully equipped kitchen with all essentials, a spacious lounge perfect for family evenings, and a bathroom. Step out onto the private balcony and enjoy the peaceful view of the pine forest — the perfect spot for your morning coffee or a sunset aperitivo with the sound of cicadas in the background.
The sleeping area has two bedrooms: a master bedroom with a queen-size bed, large wardrobe, and a private en-suite bathroom; and a second bedroom with bunk beds, ideal for children or younger guests.
Access to the Blue Flag beach is via a private path through the pine forest of the residence — a pleasant walk that is part of the Campo Verde experience. Free private parking is included for the entire duration of your stay.
Please note: the swimming pool within the residence is temporarily closed in 2026.

About the host

Host profile image
Hi, I’m Chiara — Italian, passionate about travel, beautiful spaces, and creating places where people can truly unwind.

I’ve always loved the feeling of discovering a home away from home while traveling, and hosting allows me to offer that same experience to others.

San Cataldo and this area of Salento are very special to me — it’s where nature, sea, and a slower rhythm of life come together. I love long walks by the beach, quiet mornings in the pine forest, and simple moments with family.

My goal is to create a space where you can disconnect, relax, and enjoy quality time together — whether that’s a peaceful morning coffee on the balcony or a full day by the sea.

I’m always happy to share local tips and make your stay as smooth and enjoyable as possible

Why they chose this property

I chose this area because it offers a rare balance between nature, sea, and authenticity.

Being surrounded by a pine forest while still just a short walk from the beach creates a very special atmosphere — calm, fresh, and deeply relaxing. It’s a place where you can truly slow down, away from the crowds, yet still be close to everything.

What I love most is the rhythm of life here: mornings with the scent of pine trees, days spent by the sea, and evenings filled with the sound of cicadas and warm coastal air. It feels simple, natural, and real.

At the same time, Lecce’s historic centre is only a short drive away, so you can easily combine peaceful beach days with culture, beautiful architecture, and great food.

For me, it’s the perfect setting to reconnect, especially for families who want both relaxation and memorable experiences together.

What makes this property unique

What makes this property unique is the rare combination of nature, privacy, and direct access to the sea.

Being located inside a pine forest within a private residence means you can enjoy a peaceful, shaded environment — something very special during the warm Salento summers — while still being just a short walk from a beautiful Blue Flag beach.

The apartment is designed with families in mind, offering a clear separation between living and sleeping areas, two bedrooms, and comfortable spaces to relax together. The private balcony overlooking the pine forest creates a calm, almost retreat-like atmosphere — perfect for slow mornings and relaxed evenings.

Another unique aspect is the experience itself: walking through the pine trees to reach the sea, hearing the cicadas, and feeling completely immersed in nature while having all the essentials close by.

It’s not just a place to stay — it’s a space to truly unwind and enjoy simple, meaningful moments together.
