Lovely setting and quirky rooms. Beautiful pool and outdoor seating but no protection if cooler weather/windy. Limited dining at facility and misinformation on local restaurants opening times. Great breakfast with high quality ingredients and lovely staff. Limited drinks choice and high prices for the area.

We absolutely LOVED this hotel!!!!! You feel at peace and so relaxed staying here, reminds me of a hotel in the countryside yet it’s so convenient being so close to all the popular towns and beaches. It truly is the best of both worlds. Everything was so so clean and the rooms were stunning, we even had a little sitting area outside of our room. The staff goes above and beyond with everything and anything you could need. It rained one morning when we were there and they went out of their way to bring our breakfast to our room free of charge. You can tell that that everyone that works there loves their job, they are so genuine and kind, giving us amazing recommendations for places nearby to visit. Always smiling and helpful. Could not recommend a hotel more. -xoxo a fellow Canadian

Great place but they need a gen er stor for power

A beautiful place to stay with a lovely pool and gardens and greast service and staff. However, the power went off in the early hours of the morning. AC went off but worse than that the emergency floodlight made it impossible to sleep. This went on for theee or four hours. They didn’t seem to have/use an emergency generator. Given this is a pretty upscale place I didn’t expect a ruined night of sleep. It’s a shame as otherwise It was perfect

This property is very unique, clean, safe, and has one of the best services I’ve experienced. They will go out of their way to help you. They print documents, and do laundry at no extra charge. The breakfast display is beautiful, healthy and organic. The pool is big and clean. If you are looking for a place that is original, safe and clean, this is the one.

Amazing place with the best staff, food and drinks

We needed to find a place to stay on our trip between Lecce and Bari stops and this gem popped up. Once I saw how good it was I tried to book an additional night, but there was only room for 1 night...because its that great. The staff is amazing, the drinks and food are wonderful (fruit and veggies from their own garden), the 24 hour access pool was awesome and overall we couldn't be happier with this property. Its also just 3 minutes by car, or an easy 5K run round trip to Le Due Sorelle Spaggia. This is how you do a hotel business right!!!

Disliked: Cleanliness
For starters, this is a very rustic property and it really is not appropriately priced at the over 400 USD a night unpaid for my room. Room 21 smelled of horrible mustiness. And really felt like it was in need of a deep clean. The spiral staircase leading to the loft bedroom was claustrophobic. Did not like the overnight here The appropriate price for this unit would have been 200 USD a night. On the bright side, the staff was very friendly and the location of this place is near some incredible natural beauty—beaches and Grottos. The little towns of Torre Della Orse and Melandugne are retro and authentic. So all in all, love the region but not this hotel at this price point.
