About this property

Casa Stella Marina

Casa Stella Marina is located in the panoramic area of Castro Marina.
It is a small and well-kept apartment equipped with all comforts.
Apartment details: equipped kitchen, fridge, washing machine, TV, sheets and towels. Reserved parking space. The whole apartment is air conditioned.
The strong point of Casa Stella Marina is the splendid veranda overlooking the sea, where you can taste and sip a good Salento wine accompanied by fresh seafood, caressed by salt and dazzled by the blue of the sea.
A relaxing holiday under the sun and the sea.
The owners are available for any request.
A few meters from Casa Stella Marina are the various coves for swimming: "Argentiera" with its relaxing and invigorating spring water, "I Fiumi" to stay in a quiet place, "L'Acquaviva", a fantastic natural inlet, "Le Sorgenti" descent to the sea near the center.
Many points of interest can be visited: the Zinzulusa cave, visited every year by thousands of tourists, the Aragonese Castle dating back to the XII century, perched on the highest point of Castro, the Parco delle Querce, oak forest of suggestive beauty and the many Piazza di Castro such as Piazza Dante, Perotti, where on warm summer evenings, tourists are welcomed by many themed events such as the Fish Festival or the Jazz Evening and other gastronomic evenings.
Also you can visit, behind the Aragonese Castle, the excavations where the statue of the goddess Minerva was found (preserved in the premises of the municipality of Castro).
All this confirms the thesis that Aeneas the mythical Trojan hero has landed in Castro.
We are waiting for you to enjoy and explore Castro and our Salento in home history.

Beautiful location with a stunning view.
We were stunned by the beauty of the view from the terrace, overlooking the Adriatic Sea. Our hosts, Tommaso and Maria, were always available for anything we needed. It was quiet at night. The swimming, food and beauty in Castro and the Salento region is second to none.

The property is well appointed and very well maintained. The hosts, Maria & Tommaso, made us feel welcome and provided a wonderful welcome gift. We hope to return again Mark & Leonie

Highly recommend!Just a perfect location if you have a car. The sea views are always interesting.
Tommasso and Maria are fabulous hosts who go out of their way to help. They came one day with pastries for us and there were refreshments and snacks for us in the refrigerator. The bed is comfortable, kitchen very well equipped! Loved the morning sunrise on the balcony with a visiting cat who greeted us everyday. The only negative was no wifi but Tommasso brought us a modem. And the thirty stairs to get to the unit. It’s not a problem for most but I have mobility issues

La vacanza perfetta
Siamo stati ospiti di Tommaso e Maria nelle due settimane centrali del mese di agosto: tutto come da descrizione ci siamo sentiti subito a nostro agio. Semplicità e funzionalità allo stesso tempo, zona molto tranquilla a pochi passi dal mare e dal centro di Castro. Terrazza stupenda: colazione, pranzo e cena con vista mare. Grazie a Tommaso e Maria per l'ospitalità e la disponibilità...a presto Roberto, Alessandra e Cristian

Kleine Ferienwohnung in wunderschöner Lage
Liebevoll eingerichtete Ferienwohnung. Schlafzimmer mit bequemer Matratze sowie Wohnküche mit guter Ausstattung bieten alles was man im Sommerurlaub braucht. Die wunderschöne Terrasse mit dem Blick aufs Meer ist grandios. Deutsches Fernsehen gibt es nicht, aber das Fernglas (gehört zur Ausstattung) und der Ausblick sind ein besserer Ersatz. Tommaso und Maria sind sehr nette Gastgeber. Bei der englischen Kommunikation war ihr Sohn sehr behilflich. Gerne hätten wir ein bisschen Italienisch mit Ihnen gesprochen (wir werden lernen!). Der Fußweg zum Felsenstrand mit gutem Badeeinstieg ist kurz. Traumhafter Sandstrand nördlich von Otrando ist nur eine 1/2 Stunde Autofahrt entfernt. Castro war für uns die ideale Wahl. Die Felsenküste bietet viele schöne Ausblicke und manch andere schöne Badebucht. Alles zusammen also eine echte Empfehlung für einen Badeurlaub mit ein bisschen Sightseeing!

Vacanza indimenticabile
Siamo stati ospiti di Tommaso e Maria per 15 giorni qui ad agosto. Due splendide persone gentili,ospitali e disponibili. Ci siamo da subito sentiti come a casa di amici. La casa? Che dire una vera " Chicca" arredata con semplicitá ma originale , non mancava nulla e tutto funzionante. Pulizia eccellente. Per finire come non parlare del terrazzo con vista mare che ci ha regalato dei risvegli e tramonti indimenticabili. Grazie di tutto Tommaso e Maria ci ritorneremo sicuramente.

Bellissimo
Casa bellissima e ben curata. Perfettamente pulita. La terrazza vista mare è l'ideale per fare la colazione, il pranzo o la cena con la vista su un mare meraviglioso. Tommaso e Maria sono due persone squisite e sempre disponibili. Al nostro arrivo ci hanno accolto con alcuni prodotti tipici della Puglia e alcuni buonissimi prodotti del loro orto. Siamo stati benissimo, a 2 passi dal mare e centrale per chi come noi si è spostato in giro per il Salento. Ci torneremo e lo consigliamo vivamente.
