Villa Ottilia B&B + Ottilia al Mare Beach House

A few years back we went out with the researchers from Jonian Dolphin Conservation for a day of dolphin watching. We didn't see any dolphins, but...
5 that circled our catamaran for quite some time. Incredible experience! Now they've had babies 🐳
They've also finished the construction of a 🐬 "dolphin hospital" 🐬 just outside the coast of Taranto, the ONLY one in the Mediterranean ❣️
Just for the record, we've been dolphin watching again and saw lots! 🙏🏻
If you want to go out with them during your stay in Ottilia I'll help you book!

Hats off to the Airport in Brindisi!

It took us 8 minutes from the car to the bar. Literally flew through security!
Great breakfast at normal price (almost).
LOVE SMALL AIRPORTS!

16 years ago, we installed solar panels for hot water. I remember that day very well as it made me cry. Why? Well , the "kit" was enormous and very visible, so to me, it ruined the look of the villa. It even had the brand name "Torino" written all over it. I managed to get rid of the writing, but for 16 years, it's been nagging me.
Not only for the looks but also because it didn't produce enough for 10-12 people, we'd wake up to cold water and end up using the water heater even in summer.
Today, it came down, and it'll put a smile on my face every time I drive in through our gates 🧡🤍🧡🤍🧡🤍
