Waterfront vacation rentals in Marina di Mancaversa-Giannelli

Perfect stay right near the beach that felt like home! This property has super comfortable beds, nice linens and many little things that made for a very relaxing stay. We thought we’d visit a number of the villages in the area, but found ourselves just wanting to relax at the house and on the local beaches instead. If we come back to the area, we are 100% staying here again. Also, although there are good restaurants in town, cooking was easy bc there’s a BBQ on the patio, lots of spices and pots/pans to cook with and plenty of plates/cups/glasses/etc. It’s a well stocked kitchen - much more so than many other places I’ve stayed. If you’re thinking about this place, stop looking at other options and book it. You won’t regret your decision. Thanks so much for a wonderful stay!!

We had a wonderful time in Gallipoli and couldn’t have asked for better hosts. The Fab Stay team was exceptional – always responsive, incredibly helpful with local recommendations, and even went the extra mile to arrange taxis for us. Nothing was ever too much trouble, and their friendly support made our stay even more enjoyable. The accommodation itself was absolutely perfect – clean, stylish, and well-equipped. A true home away from home that added real comfort to our trip. If we had to mention one small point, it would be the location. The walk to the old town took about 23 minutes, which wasn’t a problem generally, but in the summer heat it did feel a bit long – though that’s probably on us for not checking more carefully before booking. That said, it didn’t take away from a fantastic experience. We’d happily recommend this stay to anyone visiting Gallipoli – just plan ahead for evening strolls to the old town.

Great host, great location (ground floor) right on the rocky beach, beautiful small sandy beach 300 m away with management (Lido Pazze), great large, long and flat sandy beach about 3 km away - starting right behind the port of Torre San Giovanni to Posto Veccio -, ideal for families with toilets and management. Crystal clear, turquoise water. The pizzeria is practically right next door. 400 m away is a new, very good restaurant "Clanto" (5 Google stars) for Neapolitan pizza and Apulian cuisine The kitchen is very well equipped, vinegar, oil, spices, sugar, coffee…tools etc. Boat can be rented in Gallipoli or Santa Maria di Leuca about 25-35 minutes away (the landlords in Torre S.Giovanni were not available). Very good starting point for exploring Ri Taranto, Santa Maria di Leuca, Otranto, Lecce. Unfortunately, we were far too short on site, but the apartment was only available for 3 nights... 😢 So far, we don't like the Adriatic side as much as the Ionian side

We had a lovely stay in Maria’s apartment, the apartment was clean and really nicely presented. The bed is also extremely comfortable and the location is perfect. We stayed for a week in otranto and couldn’t recommend it more, the restaurants were all really well priced and delicious. The town itself is very peaceful and quaint. Maria was very helpful with anything we needed and gave us a lot of recommendations on things to do. Five stars from us!!

Great location! And guiseppinas its a great host ! Thanks

Amazing Place: Very clean with all the little things you need for an extended stay. Beautiful views from the terrace. We used it as a hub to. Visit the beaches of the area. A perfect stay!

Had an absolutely amazing week in this accommodation. Felt right at home from the warm welcome of Daniela and Valentino at check-in. The accommodation was very clean and provided with everything and a little more that we could need. The accommodation is located with fantastic panoramic ocean views, very close to the water, several different beaches and swimming areas. The accommodation is located between two villages with exquisite restaurants and cafés on each side. We are more than satisfied with our stay and will be happy to come back here.

Very nice residential area with wonderful roof terrace with views of the sea. Walking distance to the sea in 12 minutes in the center with running. We would rent again in a heartbeat.

We stayed for 11 nights in June. The place was very private and quiet. The apt. had everything we needed. The sea was really just a 1 minute walk away and there were hardly any other people swimming. The water was very nice. The terrace was incredible and had direct sun only in the morning. The view is east bound. The master bed was good in size, the mattress could be better. Towels and sheets were plenty and clean. The washing machine was good. The kitchen stove works with gas and the hot water works with a boiler. The water pressure was good and the water was always warm. The oven didn’t work unfortunately, switching it on made the electricity go off. WiFi does not work well inside the house but on the terrace, but we didn’t mind. We had a wonderful stay here and would recommend the place for a couple or a small family.

Antonio and Lina are wonderful friendly hosts who take care of everything, highly recommended! The old apartment is cute and tastefully decorated, and when it is warm outside, also bright. We were there at the end of March and the weather was very cold and rainy at first. But we had a wonderful stay in fantastic Gallipoli.

This house is a real gem. It is located right at the sea. There are stones in front of it but you can go swimming, if you want. On both sides approx. 5-10 min are very nice sandy beaches. The view is amazing and we had super nice sunsets. The house has everything you need and the kitchen is fully equipped. The decoration is maritime and quite cute. It was really peaceful and we had a great time. There are a couple of restaurants in the village as well as shops and even fish shop. We were there at the end of May. Many shops and restaurants were still closed but 20 min by car there is a bigger town where you have everything. We really enjoyed our stay. If you look for peace and quiet - book this lovely house! Highly recommended!

Clean accommodation, we were able to enjoy the shaded terrace. We were two couples and it was very nice to have two bathrooms and two toilets. Anna Maria was very responsive and attentive to us

The small apartment is really fantastically located. The upstream road hardly bothered us, as the view of the sea and the dune landscape - both in stormy-rainy weather and in sunshine - is simply fantastic. We liked to take the slightly longer walk to restaurants and shopping (about 20-30 minutes on foot) as an opportunity for extensive morning walks by the sea and through the (seasonal) still somewhat sleepy streets of Torre di San Giovanni, which is characterized by vacation, weekend and summer houses. Overall, a great starting point for excursions throughout Salento. As already described several times, the apartment with the small kitchen is excellently equipped, we did not miss anything here at all. Communication with Emanuela and her parents is exemplary. We could not try out all the restaurant tips, but when we asked, we had helpful and targeted answers after 30 minutes at the latest! Thanks for the unforgettable days!!!

This was an ideal place for the beach and restaurants . Such a vibrant old town with lovely shops and lots of places to eat .

There were two of us in the accommodation for six nights and we were more than satisfied. May is still before the season, so we were alone in the whole street. The terrace is a dream, but visible to the neighbors. Because we were alone, this was not difficult. We highly recommend the apartment, Fernando was a great host and was always easy to reach and friendly!

The house is really very spacious and the location close to many places of interest in Salento makes it great for those who want a little peace and quiet for their holidays and allows them to visit all of Salento in a short time. Camilla has always been available and clear for all our doubts. Highly recommended

We had a very relaxing time in Vittorio's apartment. The large balcony has a great view of the sea. 2 beaches are directly opposite, only across the less busy street from the apartment. The free city beach with the sheltered bay is also within walking distance. The sea is crystal clear and shines in all shades of blue. The old town of Otranto is also within walking distance and offers plenty of restaurants and ice cream parlors. Vittorio welcomed us very nicely, also gave us many tips during the stay and stayed in touch with us. The apartment is lovingly furnished and has everything you need. We recommend this place to anyone who wants to spend a relaxing holiday in Otranto.

Grazie Mille Marcello, Claudio è Luca. The apartment is beautiful, so well equipped and the view was wonderful. We appreciate that you were all so helpful to us. We highly recommend your apartment to other visitors. Ivana

Thank you Pasquale and Paolo for hosting us and the stay. Everything was perfect! The apartment already looked beautiful in photos but it was even better in real life. The decor, shower and kitchen had been redone. They had planned everything necessary for our stay with our baby: changing table, baby bath, high chair, folding bed, blender for puree, stroller and even parasol and 2 folding chairs (which allowed us to introduce him to the sandy beach, 5 min walk from the apartment). Parking in the garden, sea view, fully equipped kitchen. Washing machine and coffee machine with pods as well. Everything was very well thought out so that we could have a good vacation. Even mosquito nets. They even planned a map and recommended lots of nice places. The apartment was also very clean. We'll be back with pleasure for our next stay and recommend their accommodation 100%.

Our experience at Elizabeth's apartment was fantastic from start to finish. Communication with her was seamless; she was always quick to assist and answer any questions we had. Elizabeth went above and beyond, providing detailed instructions for our late check-in and sharing wonderful recommendations for nearby restaurants. The apartment was spotless, and we especially enjoyed the balconies with their stunning views. Located in a peaceful area, the apartment was just a short walk to great dining spots and a charming local beach. Thank you, Elizabeth, for an unforgettable stay – we would love to return!

Delightful location, in the heart of Gallipoli! Host available and responsive, cozy home with a beautiful terrace. We absolutely recommend it!

The hosts are very accommodating, I found the apartment a bit small, but it was ok for 3 days. The view is amazing :)

Loved my experience here. Beautiful location. People are friendly in the building and surrounding area. Giovanni is warm and communicative. There was coffee and other necessities to cook. I hope to make it back there one day. Thank you Giovanni.

We had a wonderful stay! The apartment was as described: spacious, very clean, in a very quiet area and a 5-minute walk to the beach. We felt right at home. There were drinks in the fridge when we arrived. And Tony... a perfect host! Very attentive, he made us taste very good specialties, we enjoyed ourselves! Also very responsive to our questions and very good advice for visits, restaurant addresses, supermarket addresses, the cooperative to buy olive oil. I would recommend this place without hesitation! We'll go back! Many thanks Tony! :)
