The Residence Mare Azzurro is a complex of 9 apartments located in Torre San Giovanni - Marina di Ugento, one of the most popular tourist destinations on the Ionian coast of Salento.
The apartments are located on the Gallipoli–Leuca coastal road heading toward Gallipoli, facing the rocky coastline, just 150 meters from the small sandy beach of Isola di Pazze and a 5-minute drive from the sandy beaches of Torre San Giovanni, which stretch for about 8 km. The sandy beaches of Torre San Giovanni can be reached via a shuttle bus provided for guests, which takes them to the affiliated beach resorts.
The beaches of Torre San Giovanni stretch all the way to Lido Marini and offer a variety of services and attractions, such as beach clubs, public beaches, restaurants, bars, boat tours, and diving. The beach is ideal for families with children, thanks to its shallow and safe waters, but also for those seeking fun and nightlife.
The apartments at Residence Mare Azzurro are approximately 60 square meters in size: they consist of a spacious and comfortable entryway/living room with a single sofa bed; a kitchenette; a bathroom with a shower; and two bedrooms that can accommodate up to 4 people.
They are equipped with air conditioning, Wi-Fi, bicycles, a barbecue, a shared washing machine, a lounge area, and a garden table.
All ground-floor apartments feature a very spacious outdoor area, complete with an outdoor shower, where you can relax and enjoy your time. Those on the first floor, with their livable balconies, offer a wonderful view of the sea and its endless horizon.
The apartments at Residence Mare Azzurro have a dedicated, enclosed, and private parking area.
A highlight of the Residence is the beachfront area, which will be dedicated to children’s play and relaxation for adults.
