Sant'Ilario Vacations from $1,371

The hotel is in an excellent location. However, the hotel is tired and is in need of a remodel.

The property was simply magical. It was incredibly private, absolutely beautiful, and the staff was amazing. I will be returning many times in the future.

Mon hôtel préfère des Pouilles. Très propre. L’espace piscine est magnifique. Belle déclaration. Les repas sont délicieux. Je recommande!

The hotel is absolutely incredible. The staff are very nice and the service was exceptional. There is a pools view from the back of your room and the Adriatic Sea is in the front of your room. Breakfast is served every morning outside the front door of your room and the food is exceptional.

This hotel was truly fantastic. The property itself is beautiful — the infrastructure is gorgeous, the staff are extremely friendly, the amenities are genuinely useful, and the restaurant is outstanding. The hotel sits outside the small towns of Puglia rather than inside one of them, so you'll need a car to get around. Honestly, though, I think that's the best way to experience the region — staying in one of the small towns means very limited availability, whereas a hotel like this puts you about a 10-minute drive from most of the inland towns, and around 40 minutes from the coastal ones. Breakfast was delicious, parking was free and convenient, and the room was lovely — not spectacular, but we booked the simplest category, and from what I understand the higher-tier rooms are significantly nicer. Beyond being a great base for exploring the area, it's also a wonderful place to just relax by the pool. Truly, truly wonderful — spectacular all around.
