Beautiful little town.. nice restaurants, clean , cute little beach.. nice place to visit for 2 days

3/5 - Okay

Verified traveler

Not worth spending a night. If you must see just stop by for the day. The famous beach is crazy crowded. The restaurant in the grotto is wildly overpriced (minimum of 180€ per person!) and they have a lot of attitude.

4/5 - Good

Patti

The cliff resteraunt is way overpriced minimun $180 Euro per person.

My wife and I particularly liked the culture of “Old Town”, historical, yet not too reserved. Some great places to eat. We very much enjoyed our stay at Vilu Suite and at Polignano a Mare.
