Hey from Simona

Member since August 2005 | 74,010 hits

Greetings everyone! Meet Luca and Simona.

Simona was born and raised in Bologna until she turned 30. Then, thanks to an online chat, she met Luca, a born-and-bred Salento man, and fell in love with him and the wonderful land where they now live. They got married in October 2005 and had a son named Matteo in April 2011.

Their lovely family includes a big black and white cat named Sale, a younger kitty named Pippo, and a playful mixed-breed dog named Cesare.

In 2004, they opened their very own B&B. Simona manages it full-time while Luca helps out whenever he's not at his job as a surveyor.

They absolutely adore meeting new people and experiencing different cultures. They love listening to different accents and dialects, and cannot wait to welcome you to their home.

Ideal stay due to the accommodation's strategic location near the beautiful stretch of sea between Gallipoli and Santa Maria di Leuca. Rooms are spacious, quiet, spotless and offer dedicated comforts such as cool bags, sunbeds and small umbrellas for those wishing to use the free beaches. The owners are friendly, professional and always available, providing information and always spot-on suggestions. I would definitely return and recommend it to anyone wanting to discover this wonderful stretch of Apulian coast! I almost forgot: one evening a week with the other guests of the property, organized to create a "group" and socialize, with extraordinary products from the Salento region. Simona is a wonderful hostess! Sweet and savory breakfast with fresh fruit and spectacular pastries.

Colorful location, impeccable reception as well as cleanliness and services offered. Pampered every morning by the various and abundant breakfasts of Simona, always smiling and available to fulfill every request. What about the weekly barbecue organized and divinely cooked by the very nice Luca "yes Chef". Congratulations to Matteo, shy and very sweet, who already collaborates with commitment and discretion despite his young age, well done. We felt like guests of friends. Excellent value for money. Highly recommended. Thank you for everything and if we find ourselves in the area again, we will definitely choose you. Paola and Antonio.

An excellent experience at B&B Sole Luna e Girasoli, starting from the availability and kindness of the owners, to the excellent services that the structure offers (from the possibility of making lunch for breakfast to bringing beach equipment). Superb cleanliness. Also, the idea of dinner together with the owners and other guests is beautiful (compliments for the meat)! If there had been praise, I would have added it to all the points of this review.

The answer from the host:
Ciao Chiara! Grazie mille per le tue parole. È stato un piacere conoscervi ed avervi come nostri ospiti!

We travel for both work and holidays I can say I have never found a location more beautiful and organized than the B&B Sole Luna e Girasoli for both the care and the hospitality of the owners Simona and Luca two really great guys, excellent is an understatement there should be more.

... What can I say? A unique hospitality! The owners Simona, Luca, and their son Matteo are truly wonderful and always very kind, making you feel truly at home! Very welcoming B&B, rich in services and located in an excellent, truly quiet location! Large rooms and bathrooms, impeccable cleanliness, good and plentiful breakfast. They also provide sun loungers, umbrellas, ice packs, and cool bags for beach lovers. A final thank you also for the beautiful dinner organized together, where Simona's pizza was simply delicious! We recommend this B&B for those who want to stay in peace but at the same time with everything they need at their disposal. Thanks again from the bottom of our hearts. Mirko and Federica

Simona is the host par excellence: attentive, kind, caring, hospitality personified. You feel at home with her. Extremely clean and carefully decorated rooms down to the smallest details. Breakfast so abundant it becomes a lunch, and let's talk about the evening they offer to guests? A fantastic barbecue that also becomes a great opportunity to make friends. Everything is beautiful, we will come back!

We had a great time. Simona and Luca were extremely helpful, kind, and professional. Clean environment, excellent breakfast, delicious pastries made by Simona. A great idea is the weekly barbecue offered by the hosts, both for the quality of the food and the opportunity to get to know the other guests. A B&B to talk about and recommend.

Perfect structure with all the comforts, very clean and spacious rooms. Excellent breakfast with a lot of variety of both sweet and savory food. The owners are uniquely available, providing bicycles, sunbeds, and umbrellas for the beach. The location of the structure is very good, very close for spending days at the beach and for visiting various areas like Gallipoli. I recommend it 100%, never found a better structure. A kiss from Alessandra from Bari.

Courtesy, professionalism, and kindness characterize Simona and Luca. The atmosphere is familiar, the location is excellent, the breakfast so abundant that one must only think about dinner, and the weekly barbecue offered by the B&B is also great. It was our second year with them, but there's no two without three.

Very welcoming atmosphere. Simona, the owner, is very courteous and helpful. The place is very clean and the breakfast is excellent. Convenient location to many beautiful beaches nearby. Highly recommended.

The B&B Sole Luna e Girasoli is truly a wonderful place. The dates marked in this review actually indicate the second stay that my husband and I have spent with Simona, Luca, and Matteo. That's right. And in May we will return to them for the third time. Just like this, I could close because it is clear what I think. It is a special place where you immediately feel at home thanks to the courtesy, which is now a rare thing, of the owners. The B&B is just a few kilometers from Gallipoli and is located in an excellent position to easily reach the most beautiful beaches of Salento. Peace and tranquility reign in the rooms, all themed and extremely well-kept. When you return in the evening and you are filled with the scenic and culinary wonders of Salento, you can't wait for morning to enjoy the exquisite and unique breakfasts of Simona and Luca: sweet, savory, fresh fruit, and... I dream of them at night. I highly recommend it with all my heart to friends and others, because once discovered it is hard to leave them.

Original structure located in the heart of Salento. Geographically, it makes it easy to reach all the "clou" points of Salento, both Ionian and Adriatic. Friendly hospitality and welcome put the guest at ease for every need. At the structural level, the enthusiasm of the managers is evident from the meticulous care of the details. Finally, the breakfasts make Sole Luna e Girasoli the best of B&Bs.
