We had a fabulous stay enjoying exploring puglia and a couple of lazy days on the roof terrace too. The apartment was perfect, well equipped, central location and all our needs were met. We loved the extra touches, help with getting our cases up the stairs and great restaurant and transport recommendations. Thank you Barbara

Birthday celebrations in Polignano

The property was lovely! Accommodated 6 of us, 3 kids and 3 adults. Perfectly located in the heart of the action. Stunning rooftop. Clean. Barbara, property owner, was incredible to deal with. In all my travels I've never had someone so attentive to every need and accommodating. She helped us organize activities, restaurants and an in home chef. She was always accessible and I would highly recommend this property to anyone!

Our stay at Gelso Bianco was exceptional from beginning to end. Barbara was an outstanding host, readily available both before our trip and throughout our stay. She welcomed us with a thoughtful gift of a bottle of local Rosato wine and delicious taralli, which was a wonderful introduction to the region.Barbara went above and beyond by arranging a relaxing day at Le Palme Beach Club, including transportation, and she also organized assistance with our luggage. This was greatly appreciated because, as accurately described in the listing, the apartment is reached by a significant number of steps, some of them narrow. Having help with the bags made our arrival effortless.The apartment itself was immaculate—spotlessly clean, beautifully maintained, and exactly as pictured. We were four travelers in our seventies and, despite the stairs, had no difficulty navigating them during our stay.The location could not have been better. Situated in the heart of the centro storico, we were just steps from wonderful shops, outstanding restaurants, and an easy walk to the spectacular Lama Monachile beach.One of the highlights was the rooftop terrace and plunge pool. It was the perfect place to unwind in the evenings while watching the lively atmosphere of the historic streets below. It provided a peaceful retreat after days spent exploring Puglia.We would not hesitate to stay at Gelso Bianco again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for the authentic Polignano a Mare experience !
