The Bed and Breakfast Respiro del Mare is located in Polignano a Mare, in a privileged position that facilitates the exploration of the picturesque historic center. Situated at Via Sirene 52, the 19th-century building has been recently renovated with attention to historical details, enhancing architectural elements such as the suggestive tuff arches and original chianca floors. The facility is easily accessible both by car, thanks to its location just outside the restricted traffic area, and on foot, allowing for a tranquil discovery of the points of interest that characterize this renowned location.

The famous sea cliffs, just a few steps away, offer spectacular views, while the cove of Lama Monachile and the seafront of Cristoforo Colombo make irresistible invitations for romantic walks. Nearby is also the Grotta Palazzese restaurant, famous for its unique location, and Via Roma, the main artery of the town, which delights visitors with a variety of shops, cafés, and restaurants that reflect the vibrant daily life of Polignano.

Respiro del Mare welcomes its guests in two distinct accommodations: the Dimora delle Sirene and the Suite Terrazza Vista Mare. The Dimora delle Sirene is a mini apartment elegantly furnished, equipped with all modern comforts, including a kitchenette and a balcony overlooking the town. Here, guests can enjoy the tranquility and charm of local traditions in a welcoming and cared-for atmosphere.

The Suite Terrazza Vista Mare, located on the second floor, offers an even more exclusive stay experience. This elegant accommodation, with direct sea views, is enriched by refined furnishings and a private terrace, perfect for moments of outdoor relaxation. Both spaces are designed for maximum comfort, with air conditioning, Wi-Fi, and TV, ensuring a serene and pleasant stay.

Passionately managed by Emilia and Andrea, the B&B Respiro del Mare is the result of a deep love for Polignano a Mare, first a vacation spot and now a home, where every guest finds warmth and authenticity. Here, every stay transforms into an opportunity to discover the wonders of one of the pearls of Puglia, in a context that combines tradition and modernity.

A very cute little apartment, right in the historic centre. We loved the little balcony with our view of all the old terraces. Everything you need is reachable by foot in minutes, including a lovely view of the sea. The air con and WIFI were absolutely excellent and made it a comfortable stay even in the heat wave. The owners were super kind to accommodate us with an early check-in and free parking nearby when we needed too.

Good room and clean. Central for visiting Polignano. Just one downside, the bathroom is very small.

Perfect location very close to the old town and the beach of Lama Monachile. Convenient parking near the house as well. The mini apartment has everything you need for 2 people: kitchenette, small bathroom, and a balcony with a table and chairs. Great for spending a few days at the sea!

Everything perfect. The owner is very kind, the girl who welcomed us, Grazia, is very helpful and friendly. The structure is very central, a stone's throw from one of the panoramic terraces of Polignano and practically close to Via Roma, the street with all the bars. The historic center is very close. Only small flaw is the absence of a bidet in the bathroom, there is a sink and a shower cubicle. Structure absolutely recommended.
