Casa Gelso is located just 600 meters from the sandy beach of San Menaio, one of the largest beaches along the Gargano coastline, set in a serene natural environment surrounded by olive trees, citrus groves, and Mediterranean plants. The cottage that houses the accommodation is positioned between Rodi Garganico and Peschici, in the tourist area of Vico del Gargano, making it an ideal spot for those looking to unwind amidst greenery, just a short distance from the sea.
The accommodation features a fully equipped kitchen, air conditioning, a TV, Wi-Fi access, a hairdryer, a barbecue, and a shared laundry room with a washing machine. There is a reserved parking space available within the courtyard. Bed and bath linens are not provided. To reach the beach or the town center, which offers all necessary services, it is advisable to use a car due to a short uphill stretch; however, it is just a minute’s drive or a roughly ten-minute walk.
Thanks to its strategic location, Casa Gelso is perfect for those who enjoy an active vacation. Excursions can be organized in the Gargano National Park, boat tours along the coast departing from the Rodi Garganico marina, visits to the Tremiti Islands, the trabucchi (traditional fishing platforms), and marine caves. The historic centers of Rodi, Peschici, Vieste, Vico del Gargano, Monte Sant’Angelo, and San Giovanni Rotondo are easily accessible.

San Menaio is a coastal destination surrounded by lush greenery, nestled between the hills of Gargano and the Adriatic Sea. It is renowned for its mild climate, the fragrant air filled with sea pines, and its long sandy beaches. The area maintains an authentic and relaxed atmosphere, far removed from the hectic pace of more crowded tourist spots, making it ideal for those looking for a nature and wellness getaway.
The broad, sunlit beach of San Menaio is easily accessible and suitable for families with children, thanks to its shallow waters and the presence of well-equipped beach facilities.

This region also serves as an excellent starting point for discovering the natural and spiritual wonders of Gargano: the National Park, the Umbra Forest with its shaded trails, the sanctuaries of Monte Sant'Angelo and San Giovanni Rotondo, the Tremiti Islands, and the spectacular rocky coastlines with sea caves and ancient fishing structures known as trabucchi. Nearby, visitors can savor local specialties, including citrus fruits, extra virgin olive oil, and traditional Gargano dishes, all within a setting that harmoniously blends sea, hills, and history.
