Vacation rentals with beach access in Rivabella

This is the kind of place that I wish would stay secret because it is so perfect. The appartment is on a high floor of a beautiful building overlooking the water, with gorgeous sea views from the windows. The amenities were as described. The beds are comfortable and I'll be dreaming of the master bedroom with that view on the sea. Walking down to the sea at the base of the building takes you to a gorgeous cliffside bay and there are sun chairs to lay out with a parasol. Access into the water wasn't as easy as I expected, but we were also there at a time of year where the sea was still cool and there were waves big enough to make us second guess swimming there. The village was quite quiet as we were off season, with many storefronts and restaurants still shut down. We enjoyed the quiet and made use of our rented car to explore surrounding villages. Highly recommend this place if you're looking for a serene, well located, quiet getaway with a wonderful host.

Nous avons passé un super séjour chez Antonio. C’est la maison des vacances par excellence ! Une super vue mer, une terrasse et une maison très agréable. Nous nous y sommes tout de suite sentis bien. Antonio nous a accueilli parfaitement et s’est montré très disponible. Nous y reviendrons avec plaisir.

A beautiful rooftop apartment with lots of space. What makes the place is the rooftop patio where we enjoyed breakfast outside every day. Also enjoyed a night of watching both the stars and a storm over the horizon - what a show ! The apartment is right on the Main Street .step out into all the action . Turn left and restaurants shops and bars are there for you . Turn right and 50 m away is the beach - and fyi the beach is a nice sand one. umbrellas for the beach supplied - a nice touch . Access to the apartment is by foot . At first it seemed daunting however in fact it was a 5 min walk from where Paulo had arranged a parking spot for us. Paulo and Stefano were there for us as we found our way to both parking and then the apartment. Paulo is a personal assistant by profession - she was our personal assistant during our stay making dinner rez when places were full ! Great bonus . There’s a roof top bar with music to midnight - good tunes so we enjoyed . Small kids might not enjoy

Loved our stay here! Just at the end of the bay - perfect position. Just a couple of minutes to reach restaurants and shops. Bright, airy and modern apartment. Fantastic lounge with great balcony. Really comfy beds and pillows. Would definitely stay again if we are back in Otranto.

Incredible historic house in the middle of Otranto Old Town, in a quiet passage, and next to everithing. Very comfortable, very spacious and newly renovated. The parking permit the property has is very useful and saves money! We had a wonderfull stay! Otranto is really a place to visit!

Zum siebten Mal haben wir die Wohnung von Andrea und Jenny genossen; das sagt ja wohl genug! Jedes Mal sind wir wieder neu begeistert von der einzigartigen Lage mit zwei Dachterrassen, die nicht schöner sein könnten. Wieder wurden wir herzlich empfangen von Serena, die bereits ein Willkommensgeschenk bereitgestellt und alles vorbereitet hatte. Die Wohnungseinrichtung ist farbenfroh und persönlich gestaltet, in der Küche fehlt es an nichts. Wir danken herzlich für den schönen Aufenthalt und freuen uns auf nächstes Jahr!

Lovely apartment! Fresh and clean. Cafes, restaurants and beach within walking distance. Try to catch the fruit/vegetable truck. It stops near the apartment a few times a week. Really good and cheap fruit! Our host was quick to answer and helped us every time without hesitation. She even fixed a brand new high chair for our baby❤️

Très bien situé pour visiter les alentours, la mer est à proximité. Terrasse sur le toit de la maison à partager mais avec une vue magnifique 🤩 ( attention les jours de pluie, escaliers très glissants AÏE)

Nous avons absolument adoré cette petite maison, un vrai coin de paradis! Ce que les photos ne permettent pas de voir est que la petite maison se situe sur une colline avec un magnifique jardin + vue sur la mer ainsi que des champs d'oliviers et de fleurs / herbes sauvages entourant la maison. Il est également possible de suivre des très beaux petits sentiers dans les champs depuis la maison. Le logement est très bien équipé et la cuisine tout à fait fonctionnelle. Nous avons également beaucoup apprécié l'emplacement: de nombreuses belles plages sont à proximité et il est très facile de se déplacer dans les villages / villes alentours. Bref, nous recommandons à 100%!!

Antonio und Lina sind wunderbare freundliche Gastgeber, die sich um alles kümmern, sehr empfehlenswert! Die Altbauwohnung ist süß und geschmackvoll eingerichtet, und wenn es warm draußen ist, auch hell. Wir waren Ende März dort und das Wetter war anfangs sehr kalt und regnerisch. Aber wir hatten einen wunderbaren Aufenthalt im traumhaften Gallipoli.

Nando’s house is simply superb, it is a beautiful home, with plenty of space, stylishly decorated, with an incredible terrace. It was impeccably clean & everything you could want is provided. It is an easy walk to town, where there are beautiful beaches & great restaurants. The parking permit was very helpful to use. Nando provides a great guest guide with all the local recommendations. Nando himself met us to check in, he is warm & friendly, & all his communication before & during our stay was great & very responsive. He was a truly great host, & ensured we had a perfect stay in Otranto. Highly recommend staying here & would happily return.

Tolles Appartement in der wunderschönen Altstadt von Gallipoli....alles vorhanden...alles sauber....nur 2 Min. von der Promenade und Strand entfernt...trotzdem kein Lärm....mit Google-Translator war die Kommunikation auch ein Problem....immer wieder....

Kevin and his father Sergio met us and took us to the accommodation. From there they showed us all of the local points and restaurants that they recommended. The apartment was spotless, very close to the centre of the centro storico, but also extremely quiet and peaceful. Their recommendations were greatly appreciated and they followed up to ensure that we were comfortable and if there was any other way that they could help us. I would recommend the apartment to anyone wanting to spend time in Gallipoli. It is a well presented apartment and close to everything. Thank you Kevin and Sergio.

We had probably our best Airbnb experience. We were greeted on arrival by Paolo who was incredibly friendly and helpful throughout our vacation. We could reach him at any time and he also had countless good tips for us. Among other things, he recommended the best ice cream (still dreaming of cioccolata fondente). There were some super tasty local specialties waiting for us when we arrived. The house is very clean and furnished with great attention to detail. You can tell that the owner is an architect. In general, the house really had everything you need. From olive oil and spices to a washing machine and bathrobes. We wanted to spend the whole day on the terrace by the sea which definitely was our highlight. Our stay felt like a dream and we definitely want to come back as soon as possible. Thank you for everything.

Appartement très agréable et hôte très réactif. Attention cependant, il faut passer par une chambre pour accéder à la salle de douche (mais il y a un second wc). Merci !

This is a beautiful spot with a very special place to swim. In May (before the ladder is placed) jumping in is comfortable and the exit front the water requires a bit of climb. Your hosts couldn’t be sweeter or more responsive. Very thoughtful and prompt. It’s a small place but it’s well equipped and beautifully maintained. Sadly, there was loud construction happening on the dwellings on either side of us during our stay but that could happen anywhere and can’t be predicted. I would absolutely stay here again.

Wir hatten eine sehr erholsame Zeit in Vittorios Wohnung. Der große Balkon hat einen tollen Blick auf‘s Meer. 2 Strände liegen direkt gegenüber nur durch die wenig befahrene Straße von der Wohnung entfernt. Auch der freie Stadtstrand mit der windgeschützten Bucht ist in wenigen Gehminuten zu erreichen. Das Meer ist kristallklar und leuchtet in allen Blautönen. Auch die Altstadt von Otranto ist in wenigen Gehminuten zu Fuß bequem zu erreichen und bietet reichlich Auswahl an Restaurants und Eisdielen. Vittorio hat uns sehr nett empfangen, hat uns auch während des Aufenthaltes viele Tipps gegeben und ist mit uns in Kontakt geblieben. Die Wohnung ist liebevoll eingerichtet und hat alles was man braucht. Wir empfehlen diese Unterkunft jedem der einen entspannten Urlaub in Otranto verbringen will.

This apartment is excellent. The location and views are amazing. We enjoyed the proximity to beach, local cafe and constantly changing vista. Out hosts were very supportive and friendly, but allowed us the space for a quiet holiday. We appreciated quick responses when we asked for recommendations. This was a relaxing, spacious and restful place to be. Thank you Marcello and Claudio.

Our experience at Elizabeth's apartment was fantastic from start to finish. Communication with her was seamless; she was always quick to assist and answer any questions we had. Elizabeth went above and beyond, providing detailed instructions for our late check-in and sharing wonderful recommendations for nearby restaurants. The apartment was spotless, and we especially enjoyed the balconies with their stunning views. Located in a peaceful area, the apartment was just a short walk to great dining spots and a charming local beach. Thank you, Elizabeth, for an unforgettable stay – we would love to return!

Es war ein wundervoller Aufenthalt! Die Wohnung ist total süß und hat alles was man braucht. Es war total praktisch, dass neben den normalen Weingläsern auch noch welche aus Plastik da waren. Die konnte man super mit zum Sonnenuntergang mitnehmen, ohne Angst zu haben, dass etwas zerbricht. Francesco hat uns Restaurants in der Gegend empfohlen und wir waren von allen sehr begeistert. Von einem sogar so sehr, dass wir in 3 Tagen 2x dort waren. Francesco hat immer proaktiv die Kommunikation aufgenommen und sich erkundigt, ob alles in Ordnung ist. Wir waren sehr begeistert und können die Unterkunft auf jeden Fall empfehlen.

I would not hesitate to recommend this air bnb or to stay there again. So nice to personally meet the hosts who were extremely welcoming & friendly. The seaview terrace was great for taking in the view, enjoying the night lights, as well as soaking up the sun while enjoying a glass of wine. Easy walking distance to the beach & numerous restaurants.

Tuvimos una gran experiencia en este hospedaje en Gallipoli. Patrizia es una excelente anfitriona, ella es muy amable y respondió rápidamente a nuestras nuestras dudas, tuvo la amabilidad de ir a recogernos a la estación de tren, siempre se mostró proactiva y nos compartió recomendaciones sobre medios de transporte en la zona y principales puntos de interés. El hospedaje cuenta con todas las comodidades necesarias para una estancia confortable, este se encontraba limpio, bien ubicado. A una caminata de distancia del casco antiguo y también se encuentra muy cerca de la estación de tren. Sin duda lo recomiendo!

5-nights stay with 6 friends Very professional host and service, always available if needed. Also, mid-stay cleaning service included in the price. Breathtaking terrace and very nice house with cosy, renovated interior. Excellent location 10 metres from the beach. Air conditioning everywhere in the house, easily adjustable to your liking. All in all very good!

Loved my experience here. Beautiful location. People are friendly in the building and surrounding area. Giovanni is warm and communicative. There was coffee and other necessities to cook. I hope to make it back there one day. Thank you Giovanni.
