We’re just back after an amazing eight days at this hotel, which far exceeded our expectations. We were warmly welcomed by the reception staff, and in fact all of the staff are exceptional. The room was very comfortable with a spacious terrace and very clean. The hotel looks as if it’s just opened with no wear and tear anywhere. We really appreciated the strong wifi signal around the pool, luxurious cushions provided for the sunbeds, and flowers throughout the hotel. There are plenty of areas to sit and lounge, all in luxury, and with candles everywhere at night to create a lovely ambience. All very classy and tasteful. The restaurant and its staff are superb, and although not cheap, the evening meals were well worth the price. A couple of nice touches with staff remembering our names, and bringing the car round for us when it was raining! Yes, you need a car in this area, but I think that you would you need one wherever you stay in Puglia. Fabulous place, and hope to go back again (not this time of year though due to my hay fever issues!). Location is perfect if you want to visit the various towns in the area. We loved Lecce, Alberobello, and Monopoli.
