“Living like a local in Lecce”
A really nice full apartment in the old town of Lecce. A chance to live like a local. And the owner was so helpful reaching out to check everything was okay and offering advice on bars and restaurants nearby and local dishes to try.

“Just loved our five days in Lecce.”
What a find! Nicely renovated apartment in historic building only a few hundred meters from the sights and nicest restaurants (Vico dei Sotterranei) and bars in the center of Lecce. Despite the central location behind the duomo very quiet location. Well equipped, spacious apartment, comfy beds and really lovely, helpful hosts. Parking easy around the corner. Can only recommend would stay there again.

“Perfect stay and wonderful hosts!”
Apartment is very stylish and comfortable. Communication and tips about Lecce were great. The hosts go over and beyond to make this a homely and comfortable stay, including an excellent bottle of local wine, coffee, tea, toast and jam. We were particularly grateful for all the assistance in returning items left behind. Many thanks for a wonderful stay. Will definitely return. 💯 recommended!

This is a truly wonderful place to stay in beautiful Lecce. Not many places measure up to their descriptions, but Antica Cisterna actually does.

Spectacular apartment. In reality, it looks a lot better than it looks in the pictures. And IT IS above the real antica cisterna! Paolo, the host, was very nice, and very responsive to our requests. Very good location, very clean, very cosy.
