We had such a wonderful stay! The accommodation was absolutely charming — we loved having our morning coffee on the balcony and enjoying a glass of wine in the evening on the terrace while listening to the sea and watching the stars. Our host was amazing! She was so kind, always available, and whenever we needed any information, she gave us plenty of helpful suggestions. Everything was spotless, and to our surprise, the towels were changed every two days — something we’ve only experienced in hotels before. The location is perfect: right in the center, but in a quiet and peaceful area, away from the noise. We couldn’t have asked for a better place!

If you have mobility issues, the stairs are difficult to climb. If you are not slim or athletic, it is difficult to fit into the shower cabin. It wasn't our case but it's good to know. Unfortunately the internet didn't work very well. I had to work for my job and had to use mobile data.

Having just returned from a three night stay, we would not hesitate to return! The apartment was perfect and had everything we needed, the private terrace was a real treat! Location was great, a very quiet street and only a few minutes walk to the centre. The whole booking process was super easy and communication with Andrea was great. Very responsive to messages, provided detailed instructions for parking and finding the property. Grazia met us at the property to check us in and was on hand for anything we needed. She even joined us for a few cocktails at a local bar one afternoon which was great fun! Highly recommend and will definitely stay again in the future!

This property is perfectly located for easy access to everything in Polignano and it’s not far from the train station making day trips to other areas easy. We had two rooms both of which had balcony outdoor space and one room had a lively roof terrace in addition to a large balcony. Our host Andrea went over and above to ensure that we were comfortable and had everything we needed. She had lots of good recommendations re breakfast and dinner places and helped out with advice in other situations which arose while we were there. Thank you Andrea for making us at home.

The property has a narrow, steep internal stairs to be climbed to reach the rooms. It was fine for us but could be challenging for some who may have mobility issues and also for families with young kids.

The location was so close to all the restaurants and the main cove, so it is perfect for exploring. The apartment was very comfortable and lovely facilities. Both terraces are perfect, the lower one for morning coffee and the upper terrace to come back and relax in the sunshine with a view out to sea and when return for some star gazing in the evening. The host was very helpful and accommodated an early check-in, recommendations for restaurant and helped us get a taxi to airport when was stuck due to the train strikes. Communication was excellent. We will definitely stay here again.

We had a fantastic stay, the terrace is definitely the big bonus of this place, looking out at the sea and the town’s rooftops. Sadly the weather wasn’t good enough to stay up there but on a warm evening it would definitely be awesome. Despite the room being quite small everything was perfect and comfy. The bathroom is tiny but with excellent shower. Would definitely recommend! Thanks Gianni for being so welcoming and letting us know about parking and local restaurants!

Nothing to mention

Fantastic location, close to the water, restaurants area, shopping and train station. We had two rooms, each with a balcony and one with an additional roof sun Tce with sun beds. Rooms were spacious, clean and comfortable.

Both rooms are located on the second floor via a steep, narrow winding stairs. This could be challenging when carrying large cases especially for anyone with mobility issues.

We loved the location as it was close to everything, the outdoor terrace with two levels was also perfect as the first floor was nice and shady and upstairs you could use the sun loungers with great views.

Stairs were a little steep but we was aware of this when we booked and with the character of the building I'm not sure they could be made any better.

It is a quaint little property in the heart of Polignano A Mare. The owner was very helpful in every way and so was her assistant. Provided us with great directions to the property along with parking information. The whole experience was very positive!

Steep steps but only one set and I think in this type of property it is to be expected.

The location of Respiro del mare is perfect! A very short walk to all of the shops, restaurants and to the sea. The roof terrace was lovely, we enjoyed watching the sunrise and sunset. Andrea is a great host..she helped us to find a free parking spot, and we were greeted and showed to the apartment by her lovely colleague Grazia. We had the most amazing trip and I highly recommend staying at Respiro del mare

Respiro del mare has a great terace, it's a very cozy and warm place to stay. We were very well welcomed, the owner insisted a lot in making us and our son, feel good. It is close to the main attractions, near to Via Roma, the street with the lyrics of Volare, close to the beach, to everything. Polignano al Mare is amazing, we had a wonderful time there.
