A part of villa in a loud neighbourhood
Altogether it was a pleasant stay.
The premise is large enough, well-located with a perfect beach near-by. Small shops and nice bars 10 minutes away by foot. Shopping malls and tourist-oriented restaurants 25 minutes away by car in Ostuni. For Italy-specifics (either food or clothes) you would need to drive further, of course.
As to the Villa itself – it is a decent old house that is kept in a good shape. Mostly clean, except for the shower – just like in 3-star hotels, mould is in every corner.
Plus, it is not a full house. You get 1/3 of a building, because it is a rectangular building divided into three flats. So you do have neighbours that have some machine (descaler or something) that turns on between 9 and 10 pm every night just behind your bedrooms wall.
Not to mention a few hotels / clubs / whatever that run karaoke, disco and shows till midnight so loud that you feel the noise even with all windows closed.
In case you are loud yourself – no problem. But if you hope to get your kids to bed early – you will have to try hard getting them tired enough to ignore all this noise.
