Masseria Stali, The Originals Relais

Masseria Stali, The Originals Relais

10/10 Excellent
"It is an excellent place to stay. Comfortable room, great staff and most of all amazing breakfast! During our trip to Puglia we stayed in 4 hotels and this Masseria had one of the two best breakfasts (but the other hotel cost 3.5 times more, so it is even better for Masseria Stali). Lots of space outdoors for our kid and dog. Easy parking and easy to drive to."

"Endroit très bien situé face à la mer - accès facile - plage bien entretenue. Piscine très belle - jeux appréciés des jeunes. Le boardwalk superbe pour la marche et voir les couchers de soleil. Une vraie station balnéaire. Chambre très propre - la salle de bains a besoin d’amour - les portes de douche brisées et à peine fonctionnelles. Un renouveau s’impose. Les vitres des couloirs sont soit sales, soit défectueuses. On voyait à peine à travers. L’internet dans notre chambre très déficient pendant nos 3 nuits malgré nos doléances. Le café dans la salle à manger servi par des grosses machines qui ont fait défaut - loin du statut du bon café italien. Le buffet était très adéquat. L’homme des omelettes efficace et professionnel - très serviable. Stationnement facile autour de l’hôtel."

Victoria Palace Hotel & Zen Wellness

10/10 Excellent
"We arrived early and were offered use of the pool, changing room and lunch. Our room was ideal, and well fitted (although no kettle, available on request). It was nice and quiet, both by the pool and in the room, and an easy 5 minute walk to the beachfront with cafes, bars and shops. We had a car and parking was easy, so it made this hotel an ideal base to explore the Salento area and Gallipoli. All the staff were friendly, both on the desk and at breakfast which was a buffet style with some hot options. On departure we were again offered an room extension, use of the pool all day and the Spa to freshen up. All in all could not be faulted."
