B&B Salento Sun Sea
The B&B Salento Sun Sea is located in the heart of a small and characteristic village in Salento, precisely in San Pancrazio Salentino, a strategic point as it is just a few kilometers from Porto Cesareo, Porto Selvaggio, Riva degli Angeli, Punta Prosciutto on the Ioanian sea, as well as Brindisi with the Torre Guaceto Marine Park on the Adriatic, from Lecce, city of the Baroque, Taranto, capital of Magna Grecia and guardian of the most famous gold in the world. All destinations reachable in about thirty minutes!
The atmosphere of the B&B Salento Sun Sea
A few days ago, I was invited by Denise, my dear friend and owner of the b&b, to get to know the place.
Its location, near the historic center of the town, allows you to reach it on foot, or by parking your car in the car park reserved for guests.
As soon as I opened the massive wooden door of the main entrance and crossed the threshold, I was immediately catapulted into another place.
The house, now renovated, takes us back to reliving that atmosphere of the past, when numerous families lived together. A place of aggregation, meeting and serenity.
Here, even the stones that cover the supporting columns and arches seem to exude an atmosphere of romance and elegance. The high ceilings with star vaults and the imposing staircase on the left are examples of timeless beauty that never goes out of fashion.
The entrance to the bed and breakfast seems to herald the surprises that await guests upstairs, with a long staircase. As soon as I started climbing, I immersed myself in the pleasant atmosphere and peaceful silence of the place.
At the entrance, Denise’s warm smile greeted me, just as her guests do as soon as they cross the threshold. She is a very energetic person and you can tell that she really loves what she does. Her enthusiasm literally infected me, proudly showing me the commitment and passion she puts into her work.
The services of the Salento Sun Sea B&Bs
I was hosted in the first room, the hub of the house, which welcomes customers with a large fireplace which is lit in winter for a warmer atmosphere. It is here that breakfast, an important moment, is served by Denise who undertakes to prepare it every morning, starting from homemade desserts, such as cakes, donuts, tarts and biscuits, which I was able to taste during our conversation, or a breakfast savory based on cured meats, cheeses, taralli, etc. Furthermore, upon request, a vegan or intolerant breakfast can be served, all in full respect of the authenticity and well-being of her guests.
On sunny summer days, on the small terrace in front of the rooms, a large gazebo is mounted and arranged to welcome guests at breakfast time or transformed into an event area.
In the same room used for breakfasts, video conferences, project presentations and video surveillance and alarm and photography courses are also organised.
And if you need to extend your stay and don’t know how to get around for lunch or dinner, don’t worry! Upon request, Denise will recommend a restaurant affiliated with the property.
The rooms of the structure
Having offered me coffee, Denise also spoke to me about the various Grottaglie ceramics which populate the various rooms, including the majestic wall lamps in the atrium of the structure which illuminate, creating a particular play of light and some paintings which, through the warm and therapeutic colours, convey a sense of serenity and beauty that only our Salento can offer!
The 6 bedrooms are well distributed over the two floors, 2 on the ground floor including a double bedroom with en-suite bathroom and a bedroom with a single bed, while 4 on the first floor: a single bedroom with balcony and private external bathroom and 3 double bedrooms with bathroom private, one of which is a double suite with a comfortable lounge area with adjoining terrace overlooking the town.
In the rooms, soft and delicate colors prevail which highlight the modern furnishings in perfect harmony with the ancient and well-renovated exterior.
All rooms are equipped with all comforts: air conditioning, flat-screen TV with satellite channels, complimentary toiletries, hairdryer, electric kettle.
Furthermore, as guests of the Salento Sun Sea, you can enjoy free wi-fi in all areas.
The atmosphere and hospitality of the B&B will offer you a relaxing and welcoming stay just a few steps from the sea!
