Palazzo Camarda in Ceglie Messapica

Top

A sublime experience, especially for the Fiorio family's hospitality. They don't just make you feel at home, they make you feel like a relative.

The staff was also SUPERB.

P.S. A big thank you to Francesca, she pampered us and put up with us 😉

For three years now, I have returned to Palazzo Camarda with immense pleasure, and each visit confirms just how unique this establishment is. From the moment I step through the door, I feel a genuine, warm, and sincere family spirit that makes the stay simply incomparable.

Maria Paola, the granddaughter of the renowned Cesare Fiorio, manages the palazzo with an absolutely exceptional sense of hospitality. Always available, smiling, and attentive, she perfectly embodies this welcoming and familial atmosphere. She also knows the region intimately and readily shares excellent recommendations for discovering the best local restaurants and the culinary treasures of Puglia.

The setting is magnificent, a superbly restored historic palazzo, where one finds the generosity of this family, deeply attached to its traditions and hospitality. The breakfast, prepared with homemade products from the family's organic farm, is a true delight. Every detail is meticulously attended to: comfort, impeccable cleanliness, refinement, and a soothing ambiance in the heart of the historic center.

Palazzo Camarda is much more than just accommodation: it's a haven to which I have remained loyal for three years, as the welcome, the attention to detail and the atmosphere are so precious.

Very good communication. A comprehensive welcome tour of the property and the homemade breakfast was very fresh and delicious. The decoration and finish to this historic property is very well done. Would fully recommend

Fantastic stay 5* all round.
Everything was just perfect

Palazzo Camarda was a DREAM! The hotel is BEAUTIFUL, the location is PERFECT, and the people are so so nice! Maria Paola is an incredible hostess, always asking if we are comfortable, if we need anything, and making our dinner reservations every night! She suggested restaurants outside of Ceglie in surrounding cities and made those reservations as well. The room was extremely clean and had a beautiful view all the way to the sea out the front, and the castle and church out the back window. Ceglie is full of AMAZING restaurants! The absolute best I've ever had. This is the perfect place to visit in the center of everything. Thank you for your hospitality and I hope we can come back again!

No complaints. The place is splendid, the breakfast is fantastic (also suitable for gluten free), the location is top, Maria-Paola and her team were top notch. The place is also full of family memories that I invite you to discover for yourself. We had the chance to meet Maria-Paola's dad (former Lancia world rally champion) and grandfather (former Ferrari F1 sporting director in Alain Prost's time), really an incredible experience.

Wonderful stay at Palazzo Camarda! The place is just incredible, former palace then 1st town hall of Ceglie Messapica transformed into a hotel decorated with great taste, with large rooms with maintenance of the original exposed stones and a private bathroom with all comforts. Possibility of free parking right next door, hearty and delicious breakfast, with gluten-free option on request. Maria Paola and her team really make you spend a dream stay in this small town which is also full of charm and whose streets at the end of the day are very pleasant.
