We really enjoyed our stay and especially the very friendly host. The pool was a big plus during hot days. Balcony and air conditioning at the room and a small kitchenette made our stay very nice as we were travelling as a small family.

The answer from the host:
Salve Erik, siamo contenti che il soggiorno sia stato piacevole anche per il vostro piccolo. In questi casi l'angolo cottura può essere di aiuto. Ci ha fatto piacere ospitarvi e speriamo vogliate ritornare in Salento. Cari saluti. Filippo

We did have a wonderful time at the Happy Days and a lot of gratitude goes out to the wonderful Valentina who did make us feel at home. She also did care for the happiness of our one year old son. The room was cozy and tidy, the pool was great, the (Italian) breakfast was always good and she even served self baked food. The only but tolerable points we could claim were the busy road at night, so we couldn't open the windows (but had AC) and the way back from town was a little ascent, but short. So all in all we definitely recommend the place!

The answer from the host:
Molte grazie Larissa per i suoi commenti. Cerchiamo sempre di fare del nostro meglio per rendere piacevole il soggiorno dei nostri ospiti. Alla prossima!

We had an incredibly beautiful stay at the B&B Happy Days, especially enriched by the good soul of the house, Valentina, with her warm and charming manner and the delicacies she prepared. The accommodation was not only impressive for its cleanliness and sweet rooms but also for its very well-kept and beautiful outdoor area. Furthermore, contact with the host Filippo was extremely straightforward, and we received timely responses from him. A stay here is highly recommended! We give 12 out of 10 points.

Filippo, Paola and Valentina make you feel at home. Always available, present and not intrusive. They give excellent advice on what to visit and where to go based on the weather, events and your tastes. Excellent breakfast and cleaning, I believe the best I have found in many vacations. I care a lot about cleanliness and order, here we are really at the top. Well done, if we return to Puglia we will definitely stop by them.

giuseppina

Lovely stay in this beautiful, relaxing, and peaceful place. What did we like? Everything. From the courtesy, availability, and friendliness of the owner Filippo who made us feel immediately at home with his warm welcome, to the cute, clean, and well-kept room in every detail. Excellent breakfast from juices to coffee, from hot pasticciotti to frise, from jams to fruit. A special thanks to Valentina for her kindness and sweetness with the guests. The location of the property is excellent for enjoying the most beautiful Ionian beaches of the lower Salento. Definitely an experience to repeat.

We returned to this Bed and Breakfast after a few years and once again we were satisfied. Professionalism and courtesy are the masters of everything this delightful structure offers: from the daily cleaning of the rooms to the peaceful atmosphere that the lovely garden offers embellished by a very cute and welcoming gazebo where you can enjoy a pleasant breakfast in the morning. The structure is located in a strategic position just a few meters from the sea and not far from many wonderful places in Salento. Greetings and thanks go to Filippo, Paola, Valentina and Stefania from Silvia and Stefano. P.S. Greetings also from Chicco.

Wonderful holiday in Salento thanks also to the choice of this bed and breakfast where hospitality, cleanliness, and the owner's availability make you feel better than at your own home. We recommend this property also for its centrality in relation to all the main beautiful places to visit. Filippo is great!

What can I say, everything was perfect. We had a great time both for the B&B accommodation and for the owner's welcome. Wonderful holiday considering that I am 7 months pregnant. I recommend it to everyone.

valentina

I recommend this little place to everyone. The rooms are very charming, well-kept, and very clean. The breakfast is exceptional because every day they made me taste typical local sweets. Even Filippo with his whole family and Valentina with their sweetness and friendliness have helped make this week that I was lucky enough to spend with them truly unforgettable.
