Sehr sauberer und ordentliche Unterkunft mit freundlichen Gastgeber und schönen Pool. Das Frühstück ist gut. Verbesserungsvorschlag wäre Frischer Saft und moderne Möbel sowie Plastikgeschirr beim Frühstück sollte gegen normales ausgetauscht werden. Wir würden wieder kommen.

Lovely stay in the beautiful area of Apuglia. Nearby tasty, origin restaurants. About 8 km to Otranto. The hotel is very clean, the smell of fresh laundry is everywhere in the room. Every second day we got fresh duvet covers. The breakfast ist sweet and so tasty. But also mixed with fruit, ham, cheese and local bread variations (very good). We really loved and enjoyed the stay and we would come back for sure! Thanks a lot.

Posizione comoda per visitare il Salento.
Tutto molto curato e pulitissimo. Colazione ottima e varia adatta a tutte le esigenze. Camera ampia e bagno nuovissimo e grande. Trovare l’acqua minerale nel frigo e bagnoschiuma nel bagno è stata una bella sorpresa. Posizione ottima per visitare il Salento e godere del bellissimo mare sia Adriatico che Ionico.

Eccellente B&B a pochissimi Km da Otranto!
Abbiamo soggiornato in 2 in questo splendido B&B di Giurdignano, a pochissimi Km da Otranto. Cercavamo un posto in cui pernottare nei pressi di Otranto per la sera del 30 Dicembre 2013: volevamo vedere il conceto di Roberto Vecchioni. Il Calesse è stata un'ottima scelta sia in termini logistici (vicinissimo ad Otranto ma in un paese tranquillo) che in termini di costo (il prezzo è più che onesto!). Sicuramente è una struttura che da il meglio nel periodo estivo ma anche in pieno inverno il soggiorno è stato molto confortevole. Non riesco a trovare un aspetto negativo sia per la struttura che per il proprietario (persona gentilissima!). Se torneremo dalle parti di Otranto, cercheremo sicuramente di pernottare di nuovo in questo meraviglioso B&B!!!
