Beautiful clean facilities, with three pools and access to the beach Excellent breakfast options. Rooms were clean. Two restaurant options. It's an oasis in Puglia.

Paradise
The staff is amazing. Very professional and detail oriented. The resort is top notch with beautiful pools and a private beach. The food was fantastic. Will definitely be back

I stayed here for business and the experience was absolutely A+. I stayed in one of the unrenovated, smaller rooms, which was still clean and decent with all necessary amenities. The hotel property is massive. Every evening, we stayed by the bar with our group which did not bother other hotel guests. My room was on the far end though, so I had to walk a few minutes to get to the common areas. Breakfast was extensive and delicious, hotel staff did the most to ensure a pleasant stay, motivating guests to participate in activities. The pools are an added bonus, even with full occupancy, it never felt crowded or cramped. We were a little disappointed with the train being out of service but alternatives were offered and we were pleased to learn a sustainable train would come in its place. The beach was large and well serviced. Some things that would be nice is a refillable water fountain, and no singe use plastics. I would definitely come back privately as would my whole group! Thanks!

Fantastic experience. The location of the resort is ideal for reaching the city of ostuni-polignano a mare - monopoli - bari - fasano - alberobello - caves of castellana - while Lecce is 45/50 minutes drive. The sea is not far and the trains work very well, pity it is windy. Excellent and well served food.

Loved our stay here! We asked to move the first day as when we opened the patio doors to our terrace the traffic was quite loud, may not bother some people but I do like peace and quiet on holiday! Reception was very helpful and offered us a room of the same standard on the other side of the hotel. Not much the hotel can do about the traffic noise but be aware. The hotel was very clean, very tastefully decorated, a great chilled atmosphere, loved the local pottery everywhere. The staff are extremely friendly and so helpful. Swimming pools, there are a choice of 3, all brilliant, plenty of sunbeds to go around. The hotel has a private beach, you can walk there which takes 10 mins or get a lift in a golf buggy which was good in the heat! Beach was beautiful, lovely golden sand and the water was calm and very clear. There is a sand bank a few metres into the sea, which makes it safe for young children as it’s not deep for a long way out. We never struggled for a sunbed and you are placed in the rows according to your level of room/ suite. We loved our suite, very high specification, looked like it’s been recently refurbished. Was a great size with plenty of room for storage. Bathroom was extremely clean. We ate in the 2 restaurants a few times for both lunch and dinner. Food was of a high standard and the waiting staff and maitre’ d were all very helpful and friendly. Our only comment is that the menu is limited and after a few days, we had eaten most of the options, would be great if there were daily specials to give a bit more variety. Would be advisable to have a car to travel to the local sites, most places are only max half an hour away ie Ostuni city, Alberobello, Polignano a Mare. We also ate at a couple of lovely seafood restaurants in the nearby Villanova - Si Sea Villanova and Vicolo A Mare Ristorante & Pizzeria, both were great and lovely views across the sea. Tip: Ask for a room on the pool side as you can hear traffic from the other side of the hotel.

A great week and generally speaking the hotel was fine; friendly staff, bedrooms/bathrooms were clean, pool area was spacious (feel there should be an adults only pool (this is listed on the website) A highlight was the lagoon pool that whilst a little tired looking was so refreshing and a great spot to sunbathe. We didn’t go in to the beach as was fairly windy during our stay so sea was quite rough. Restaurants great but very limited menu when staying for a week (we were half board) bedrooms were small and beds were very small (we had a twin room) they were also incredibly hard which has left me with a bad back. Only 1 pillow given as standard whereas I think 2 is preferable for most. Lots on offer for kids and adults alike. Overall the hotel is a little dated and tired but this did not detract from a great week in the sun.
