About the region

A five minutes walk through little streets and steps, holiday houses and well kept gardens will take you to the centre of Castro, a rich and interesting historic and archaeological centre.
For those who prefer public transport there are two colourful little trains running constantly from the beach to the town or the Port of Castro.
Once at the Port of Castro you can indulge in a sea excursion on a rented boat or a visit to one of the magnific grotto abundant in this ancient land on board of Cruise-boats.
The whole area around Castro is spotted by green blotches of typical Mediterranean trees such as Myrtle,Oleander, Laurel, Ilex and Pine but also by small orchards and vegetable gardens selling the local produce.

Other attractions are the perfect climate, the crystal clear water and the very unique denticulated coastline.

Gastronomically, Castro offer an array of speciality restaurants many specializing in seafood watered down by the locally produced vines.

At the end of the day people gravitate to the 'Piazzetta' for coffee, gelato and a long 'passeggiata' or go to the numerous concerts, dances, and folkloristic shows provided.

It is also encouraged to visit the surrounding little towns nestled around the coast, for instance St, Caesarea therms, well known for the curative quality, only km8 from Castro. Otranto host for the Club Med centre and Santa Maria di Leuca, the aristocratic little town of the South at the very point of the Italian boot.

In all, you will enjoy your holidays and your stay in our lovely Home.
