About this property

Elegant studio in antique palazzo 5 minutes from beach

An elegantly furnished, fully renovated sottano-style studio with period features (high ceilings, precious painted floor) with separate kitchenette and shower-bathroom located in a former historic pharmacy. Thanks to its street-level access, you can live like a local and put deck-chairs out on the beautiful old piazza. The rooftop terrace offers stunning seaviews and Porta Vecchia beach with crystal clear water is a five minute walk away.
Weekly cleaning and change of towels and bedlinen.

With natural light coming mostly from a single french-window-style opening, as is typical in Apulian architecture, this accommodation is best suited for people at ease in closed spaces. 
Its ground level location makes it ideal for people who prefer not to have to use stairs (note: the rooftop terrace however is accessible only through the main staircase). 
Because there is almost no traffic on Piazza Palmieri, local children will be using the piazza to play

The apartment is scheduled to be cleaned up each 7 days, also in case guests' stay were longer. The cost of this service, which is not an option, is 50 € per week (7 nights stay) to be paid cash at the check-in and will be indicated on the contract for rental.
In fact, after booking, guests are going to receive into their private mailbox 2 documents: 'The general rules of the house' and 'Contract for rental of a holiday house', to be read in advance and subscribed at the check-in. On the contract are written the sums corresponding to the cleaning fee and security deposit for possible damages of the property.

Guests are expected to carry out garbage recycling, by moving the dedicated bins and bags from the apartment to the front door downstairs (and back) on the correct days of the week. A guide for recycling will be furnished.

Vacanza a Monopoli
Esperienza estremamente positiva. L'alloggetto era situato in una zona centralissima, a cui si poteva immediatamente accedere ai vicoletti del centro. a 5 minuti da piazza venezia e dal porto. Il proprietario è stato molto gentile sia all'accoglienza (dandoci consigli su come muovercie cosa visitare) e al ritorno (accompagnandoci alla stazione per prendere il treno) Stile dell'arredamento molto carino e ricercato. Per due consigliatissimo

We didn't love it, on the contrary
This is not an accomodation we would like to recommend. The living space is devided into two parts only by a thin curtain, so one can call it hardly separated into a living room and a bedroom, while behind another curtain there is a space that one might describe, with a lot of imagination, as a wardrobe. The furniture is well out-of-date: the settee is made out of old matrasses!, The cutlery and cooking pans are a complete shambles: there is for instance no water cooker. Proper glasses are not to be found. The terrace on the top of the building has no lightning and one has to bring chairs and table from a lower level oneself by means of a very uncomfortable staircase. On the square outside the appartment one is not allowed to play football (fine: € 50), but this ban isn't upheld by the local police, so the church's wall opposite the appartment is continiously used as a goal by local youth, banging every four or five seconds a football as hard as possible against this wall. In short: the worst we have experienced ever!

About the host

Host profile image
I am a former university lecturer in Italian language, culture and philosophy now sharing my time between Berlin and Monopoli after years spent in Rome, Oxford and Heidelberg. For me, Monopoli is a perfect place to relax, study, enjoy life and spend time with my friends, all of whom have fallen in love with the city and Apulia. Art, philosophy, culture, design and shiatsu are amongst my passions
