Bottom Line

This small Porto Cesareo property is close to the beach and provides friendly service, also offering a well-regarded restaurant with a wood-burning pizza oven and half or full-board options. The hotel’s style is a bit stuck in the 1980s and the guest rooms are on the small side, but they are clean; some have small balconies. Guest can partake of an abundant buffet breakfast, and there's a gym and conference center on-site. L'Angolo di Beppecaters to longer stays and has packages available for week-long bookings. Other hotels are closer to the beach, but most have higher rates.

Oyster Hotel Review

L’Angolo di Beppe

Scene

An ‘80s throwback with a homey vibe

With lots of white marble and black furniture and various artwork hanging on the walls, this spotlessly clean property looks like the living room of someone’s home that hasn't been updated since the 1980s. The large, open breakfast room feels a bit more like a hotel, with high ceilings and wood-paneled columns, but it gives off the same sort of dated vibe. The restaurant, which is open to the public, has a similarly casual atmosphere and is slightly reminiscent of the beach, with blue tablecloths and what looks like fishermen’s nets covering the ceiling.

Location

On a main road, fairly close to the beach

The hotel is on a main road that leads to the center of the 16th-century village of Torre Lapillo and to white sandy beaches, which are a 10- to 15-minute walk away. The town center has many restaurants and bars, along with the stone Tower of St. Thomas, one of the largest towers in the area, having been built to ward off coastal attacks. It’s a two-hour drive from Bari International Airport, while some of the main tourist towns in the region, larger and busier seaside places like Lecce and Gallipol, are up to 40 minutes away.

Rooms

Small and basic with dated decor

The 20 air-conditioned rooms here are on the small side. They’re clean and fairly basic with sea-green walls and satiny comforters in grey and blue swirly patterns. The overall generic, sedate feel is thrown off by couches clad in loud fabrics looking like something Screech would wear on Saved by the Bell, which might actually work well for guests who like a vintage '80s touch. The bathrooms are decently sized, with touches of gray, purple, and aqua amid white tile work. Showers are just a separate curtained area with a drain. Rooms also have small flat-screen TVs, minibars, safes, and hairdryers. Some rooms have small balconies. Views from the windows overlook the countryside or have vistas of neighboring roofs.
