Cottage Donna Pina, Otranto centro
In the heart of Otranto's historic center, between the Cathedral and the Aragonese Castle, we recommend this romantic and elegant place for a slow, special, and authentic vacation. During the 2026 renovation, only natural elements were used: the bathroom features hard, waterproof Soleto stone; the floors are made of Lecce stone, known as "chianca," a tuff stone with warm hues; the roof and window frames are made of wood; and the walls are whitewashed with natural lime, in true Salento tradition.

Historical Home - Historical Home in Otranto
Goditi una vacanza all'insegna dello stile in questo spazio in centro. Il Palazzo era sede del Consolato Veneziano sulla Via della Seta. Venezia, per ordine del Consiglio dei Dogi, mandò a Otranto una loro nobile famiglia che diventò il punto referente, a livello burocratico e amministrativo, per tutto il traffico delle navi che da Venezia andavano in Oriente e viceversa. Il Palazzo è stato recentemente oggetto di un restauro conservativo che lo ha riportato fedelmente al suo stato originario.
