Three stops, always together

A four-legged holiday

  1. The covered veranda of a one-bedroom apartment, closed by its green gate, with a table and chairs among the greenery

    Stop 1 · At home

    A home for the whole family

    • Your veranda with its own gate. Every apartment has its own covered veranda, closed by a private gate: if you like, your dog can stay outdoors and safe.
    • A large garden among the olive trees. Shady paths and lots of greenery for walking together, on the lead.
    • The countryside just outside. Step out of the gate and you’ll find the countryside and quiet pavements for your walks.
    • We love animals too. We’ve always had them: today two cats live in our house, and plenty of others wander through the garden.
  2. Pizzomunno beach seen from above, with the beach clubs and the centre of Vieste in the background

    Stop 2 · At the beach

    At the beach, together

    Our partner beach clubs on Pizzomunno beach, Oasi Beach and Il Belvedere, are pet friendly. You agree the spot and conditions for your dog directly with the beach club; book through us and you save 10 to 20% off the list price.

    Dogs are allowed on all the free beaches in Vieste, including the large free beach next to our partner beach clubs.

    • Always carry a lead and poo bags
    • Fresh water and a shady spot
    • Best at the coolest times: early morning and towards evening
  3. Vieste seen from above at sunset, with its white houses by the sea

Frequently asked questions

Can I bring my pet?

Yes, pets are welcome on request. Tell us their size and breed in your quote request: we look at them together, for the safety of all our guests. Dogs, like any other animal, must be microchipped and in good health.

What does my dog cost?

Nothing. Only for pets with a very thick coat do we charge €50 per stay for extra cleaning. Either way, the apartment must be left clean and free of pet hair.

Which pets can we bring, and how many?

Up to 2 per apartment. We welcome dogs, cats and other animals, always within the limits of safety.

Can my dog go in the pool?

No: pets aren’t allowed in or around the pool. In the garden and common areas dogs stay on the lead; on the veranda, closed by its gate, they can be outdoors and safe.

Can my dog come to the beach?

Yes. Dogs are allowed on all the free beaches in Vieste, including the one next to our partner beach clubs, Oasi Beach and Il Belvedere, which also welcome pets: you agree the spot and conditions for your dog directly with the beach club.
