Description
The Grand Hotel Meditterraneo is a clean, bright and well-kept hotel situated in Santa Cesarea Terme, one of the most unique and interesting places in Southern of Italy.

The coastal road which brings you from Otranto to Santa Cesarea Terme and the Grand Hotel Meditteraneo is one of the most beautiful in Europe, where sandy white beaches become replaced by rocky outcrops and sheer cliffs watched over by scattered castles and seaside pleasure palaces.  Santa Cesarea Terme was once one of these pleasure palaces.

In fact, you may think you are in Turkey when you arrive at Santa Cesarea Terme, until you realize that everybody is speaking Italian! This is because of the Moorish design of this once famous and famous resort, that attracted Eastern Europeans from across the Ionian sea.

The Hotel Meditterraneo hotel is perched on the rocks above the harbour and offers a romantic and evocative view of the town and coast in the distance. There are a variety of amenities at the hotel, including a roof-top terrace, an infinity pool and spacious, comfortable, sea-view rooms.

The hotel offers visitors a great point from which to visit the incredible coast between San Leuca and Otranto.  There are wonderful beaches and coves that make sightseeing fun as well as relaxing. Lecce is also easily reached from here. 

There are great bargains to be found at this hotel in the off season and travelling to the area in May and September in the shoulder season is highly recommended as you will avoid the masses of Italian tourists which descend to the area in the height of summer.
