This place is stunning!!!!! My favourite is so far on our European holiday. It is a 3 level little apartment with a terrace that has a view of the sea. It is a 30-second walk to the most amazing views! And a 5 minute walk to the street lined with restaurants. Our host Tonia was so lovely, very helpful, and even printed documents out for us that we needed for our trip. There are stairs at the entrance of the apartment we stayed in, but they also have an apartment at street level if you are travelling with 2 people. This place was so gorgeous, and you feel like a local living in Puglia! We had to cut our atay short, and 1 day was not long enough in this amazing location! One day I will return! Grazie Mille!! 😊

Karen House is wonderful, beautifully decorated and clean. It’s in a great location in walking distance to everywhere in town. We had the three floors, two bedrooms, sitting area, bathroom and the roof terrace. We paid a little extra for the kitchen so we were able to cook some meals. We ate all our meals on the lovely roof terrace with sea view. Our host, Tonia was amazing, we had tea, coffee, water and juice in the fridge and fresh pastry treats left in the kitchen, as well as this, she dropped off delicious focaccia bread twice for us. Tonia was in touch with us by WhatsApp incase we needed anything. Tonia was the perfect host.
We liked everything.

Clean facilities. Mini fridge provided. Small selection of coffee tea and cake provided in room. Lovely owner who met us at the door and answered all questions. Parking provided on the street outside. Easy walking to main area of town and coastline. Restaurants and bars close by.
No windows so when closed for the night the room is in pitch darkness. Sorted out by leaving bathroom light on with door ajar. Shower leaked in the morning - all through the room. Informed owner.

Everything was awesome! It’s even lovelier than the photos. It’s in a great location, easy walk to train, beach,etc. the beds were very comfortable. The shower was great. The rooftop patio was wonderful. There was coffee, tea and treats plus Toni brought us delicious traditional pastry the first day and the best focaccia on the third day! She was lovely to us. We loved our stay and would choose it again for sure.

A lovely apartment,well situated in a quiet street but very close to main areas for restaurants , bars etc. The apartment is beautifully decorated and with all the facilities we needed. Spotlessly clean, bright and with a lovely little roof terrace. The beds were very comfortable. Our host made us so very welcome and provided some lovely sweet treats. Loved everything and hope to go back soon 😁

Everything! Such a beautiful historic house. Very comfortable beds, gorgeous terrace on the top floor, cute kitchen, lovely styling throughout, easy parking, great location and the most wonderful host we have encountered on our Europe trip. Tonia was so kind and generous, leaving us some treats every day! Will definitely stay here again when back on Polignano.

Our hostess was lovely The apartment really well thought out - nicely designed and a little bit different - full of character! We loved the terrace, the view, the kitchenette and the feel of the place - plus it was really easy to park on the road around the corner (only one other place we stayed in, in this region was as easy to park and as close) We were left a bottle of wine which was a lovely gesture Great location
While we were there we did not have hot water in our shower unfortunately

Everything was wonderful, the host was helpful and friendly and had left us a bottle of wine, some taralli, and espresso. Only thing I would have changed was the weather- it's such beautiful spot with views of the sea, but it was raining so we couldn't spend too much time on the gorgeous roof deck.
The weather was cold and rainy, no one's fault.

We spent 2 nights there on our trip around Puglia and it was the best decision. Everything was lovely, even beyond our expectations. The house has eveything you need for you stay, we also had traditional pastry for breakfast which is a very nice touch and as location is right in the old town, 2-3 min away from all the restaurants.
