The home is in an amazing location in the old town, walking distance to great bars, restaurants and the seaside. The rooftop was our favourite place to enjoy lunches and evening drinks. The home is beautifully decorated and the art in the house is fabulous. The beds were comfortable. If we return to Monopoli, we will definitely stay here again!
We're 4 ladies from Tennessee, who rotated in 2's and 3's staying in Marco's 3 story home in Monopoli. We walked cliff lines, swam in the Adriatic, found train routes, met fishermen, toured cities, an Olive tree farm & 2 Unesco Heritage sites; all on foot. Old town was both central and convenient as a location. Marco was easy to communicate with by text. We had no problems- though we did find the washer challenging. We took the train to Lecce, Polignano a Mare, Bari, Mola di Bari, Ostuni & Brindisi, or enjoyed a beach day in Monopoli. It was no trouble to hire a car to Alberobello & an Olive tree farm. Matera was an all day train trip, but well worth it. There was no better end to the day, than getting back to our lovely 3 story, Old Town base. We would count the stairs to encourage us, up to enjoy the rooftop terrace, looking out along the coastline and sea. Thank you Marco- we had a great time- miss a -
Although we were aware from previous reviews that the house was on several levels we were not aware of quite how many levels and how very steep the steps were, it really felt a bit like mountain climbing. However, our main disappointment with the property was that there was nowhere to relax for a family of 4 as on the first floor where sitting room-kitchen is situated there was only a sofa for 2 and dining table with not terribly comfortable chairs. On the top floor where the terrace is situated again only dining table with chairs and no sofas or anything comfortable to sit on. Last but not least we had requested for the downstairs bedroom and extra bathroom to be opened so that our adult kids could have a bedroom each unfortunately there was no toilet seat on this loo, which considering that the owner charges extra for more persons was very disappointing. All in all the property did not feel looked after with several items not working properly. On a plus point the location was perfect.
Everything was perfect. We enjoyed that very much. I would like to point out, that the apartment has 3 floors and steep stairs so for people with limited mobility it is not a great choice. True is that is apartment has a real charm.
we enjoy our stay in marcos house so much. its a very beautiful and comfortable house with all things you need. big big recommandation! thanks for everything and a fantastic stay in monopoli.
Very pleasant place to stay but only if you can handle many steps.
Lovely apartment in the old city, perfect location for beaches, restaurants and bars. Couldn't fault it other than the glass recycling collection at 6.30am!
Just as advertised on site. Central, quiet, close to shops and restaurants and beach. Marco was very accommodating and delightful
We were in the Appartement for 6 Nights and really enjoyed it! The landlord was very nice and the Communication Worked perfektly Fine with Google translate. The City is beautiful and around the Appartement are Many Restaurants, Cafés and ice cleam shops within an 5 minutes walking distance. You reach the City Beach in 2 minutes by feet.
Our family (my husband and 2 school kids) has spent a very nice week in this typical house. There is a great view from the roof terrace (you even can see the sea), though quite hot in the mornings (but afternoons and evenings were OK). There was enough space for all four of us, but I have noticed there were some additional mattresses and also the sofa in the kitchen/living room could be transformed into bed. The kitchen is small, but we have been expecting this, so no problem for us at all. There are also 2 balconies which was a great fun for us to watch all the hustle in the narrow streets. I definately would like to return one day to Monopoli, a great place, at the same time not so touristic, the sea (beach) is just a stone away from the house. Thank you for a nice vacation, Marco!
