About this property
Amazing view on the Palazzese Cave.
This house, called u'carvutt in dialect that means the small hole, is called this because it is the small house of the rock crab, or the crab's home. It is located in the most famous fjord of the famous Polignano cliff or on the Grotta Palazzese. From its balcony there is a view of the sea with a drop of 28 meters. Even in a very small space we have created a tiny, very comfortable home with bathroom with shower and kitchen with induction plate, electric oven, fridge and dishwasher. As the house is very windy and fresh on the cliff we have also equipped with air conditioning to refresh it in the rare days of calm. In addition, guests of the crab, to connect with the world, can enjoy TV and WIFI. The apartment has a comfortable double sofa bed and, for emergencies, there is also a third place on an inflatable bed. The apartment is in the historic center in the pedestrian area, nestled between the suites of the Grotta Palazzese hotel. You can also access the house with rickshaws or the Ape Piaggio. Guests will feel a unique experience because while staying in a house, in fact it seems to be on the boat, you can hear the sea night and day and witness the passage of ships and ferries in the distance and boats of all kinds under the balcony including touristic caves. By day and night you can have lunch on the balcony creating unforgettable romantic dinners cradled by the sea and the piano bar of the Grotta Palazzese hotel.
.
The apartment is air-conditioned and features a kitchen and a balcony, and there's space to spread out with a separate bedroom. Guests can enjoy a Smart TV and stay connected with free WiFi. The bathroom offers hair dryers and bidets. Other standard amenities include a sofa bed, a coffee maker, and a phone.

Spectacular
This is a hidden gem, not to be missed! The location is perfect and the place is so cute but the view from the patio will take your breathe away-breath taking and so romantic too! Thank you for being a wonderful hostess and sharing your place with us. We will be back.

Perfect location
We had a wonderful 5 days in U Carvutt. It so happened that our stay coincided with the Festa San Vito. We had boat parades with relics of San Vito in the bay below our balcony and marching band and religious processions in the street outside our front door. The location of the apartment is fantasic but particularly so on festival weekend. As has been noted in other reviws, the age, design and location of the apartment meant that there was some salt residue/dust falling from the old stone ceiling over the 5 days but that was insignificant compared to thebeauty of the view and position. We ate breakfast on the balcony each morning and had dinner or drinks on the balcony each evening whilst listening to the saxophone from the restaurant below. Marialessandra left us a welcom bottle of wine and some typical Puglian snack which were much appreciated. We would definitely stay there again. Was a highlight of our holiday!

The place was perfect location to see the city. The balcony was perfect for listening to the music from one of the best restaurants in the world with the same spectacular view. The small plaza was adorable with a great cafe for croissants and coffee.as well as the bar for a night cap. Would stay here again.

We Felt So Lucky!
We absolutely loved our time here. The location is unbelievable!! We had the most amazing view from our terrace and we were located in a beautiful little piazza in Polignano a Marr. The view from this cute little apartment is exactly the same view as the swanky restaurant below! The place was appointed well so that we were able to cook our own dinner one night. It was also extremely clean and had a great shower. Angela was also very helpful in meeting us at the parking location and walking us to the apartment. She was very sweet even though we were 5 hours late due to missing a train connection. We really couldn’t believe our luck in finding this place. We only wish we would have had more time!

Un paradiso nel paradiso
Cominciando dalla gentilezza e disponibilità della signora L' Abbate è stata un esperienza fantastica passare una settimana nel suo appartamentino nel centro della bellissima Polignano a Mare. Il terrazzo che si affaccia a strapiombo sul mare e sul famoso ristorante grotta palazzese è il miglior posto dove poter passare dei momenti indimenticabili e godere di un meraviglioso panorama. Grazie ancora alla signora. Tornerò sicuramente.
