Welcome to "Il Monile," my home nestled in the peaceful countryside of Otranto, just two kilometers from the town center. Along with my father Nicola, I have recently renovated this residence, reviving its authentic spirit and replanting a young olive grove, symbolizing rebirth after the devastation caused by xylella. This land is a tribute to the memory of my grandfather Lucio, who planted the original olive trees decades ago.
The two available rooms are cozy and bright, featuring beautiful Lecce stone flooring and equipped with private bathrooms that include a shower, toiletries, a hairdryer, a minibar, air conditioning, and ceiling fans. You won't find televisions here, but there is a selection of books by local authors, perfect for a stay focused on relaxation and cultural exploration.
Every morning, my husband Nico, who has a passion for music and beauty, and I will be delighted to offer you a coffee and a pasticciotto to start your day with the authentic flavors of Salento. Among the included amenities are free parking, Wi-Fi in common areas, and a kettle.
I can't wait to welcome you to "Il Monile" and help you discover the wonders of Otranto, filled with history, nature, and traditions.
