Where to stay with kids in Apulia

Swimming pool is great although a bit cold when you first get in. Outside areas are very pleasant and there was never any shortage of sunbeds. Everywhere was nice and clean and rooms well serviced each day

Lovely hotel, great beach, lovely pools, great seating outside all very comfortable, lovely views over Torre Canne lighthouse

We happy to chose this place. We had a car and travelled from hotel to different places. Very good relax close to the beach and pool area.

He could have done so much better with the ingredients - no imagination - lots of glutinous, flavourless sauces on pasta dishes could have been so easily improved with seasoning and herbs and some imagination

What a fabulous hotel, stayed on a Newmarket holiday tour, extremely well maintained in every way, pool excellent, bars excellent, outside pizza restaurant excellent, inside restaurant excellent, the staff are so friendly nothing is to much trouble , the cleanliness is brilliant, we had a sea view room with balcony which we could see the sun rise and set from, beach just a stones throw away is very...

The hotel snack bar serves the most amazing pizzas overlooking the sea. Drink prices were very reasonable and the pool and beach area were kept immaculate. You can walk along the beach to the small village of Torre Canne

Nicely located, cozy hotel, not too big, on a beautiful resort. Sun lovers can choose between the beach 50 meters away and a large swimming pool, see photos. I stayed for a week on a bed and breakfast basis

The breakfast was very poorish, only basic things, the area where the hotel served the breakfast could have been nice with a but messy. Only old-fashioned jazz was played all day in the pool area

Location of single rooms right next to lifts, therefore guest movement, children screaming, running along corridor made for a very restless stay

You can rent a bicycle and car through the hotel, Miss Frederica next to the reception knows all about this! You can also book many excursions there. Staff was very friendly and hospitable

The hotel is located about 5 km from the center, which you can walk if you wish - first 500m along a road, the rest along the beach boulevard with many beach bars

Really nice staff at reception. Beach beautiful, and hotel in beautiful spot. No restaurants, bars or options within walking distance, so you have to eat at the hotel if your not wanting to drive 10 minutes to Gallipoli

We were greeted by friendly and service-minded staff who made our holiday perfect for relaxation, whether in the stunning bay, the natural cave La Cricca, or the swimming pools located centrally and in the quieter relaxation area of the Masseria

Taking a boat along the coast from the resort, snorkeling, and enjoying the perfect weather, abundant sunshine, and warm sea water was an incredible experience

Returning to Le Cale d'Otranto Beach Resort with our family and friends was simply wonderful

The restaurant offers a wide selection of traditional and delicious food, catering to those seeking healthy, nutritious, and tasty meals or those wanting to indulge in the rich flavors of Southern Italian cuisine

This year, we also visited the local and natural beaches Baia dei Turchi and Spiaggia Alimini, just a 15-25 minute walk north of the resort

We stayed for almost three weeks and absolutely loved it again. Grazie mille e un grande abbraccio a tutto lo staff di Le Cale d'Otranto

I loved the beach bar, where you can enjoy a great coffee after an early walk along the beach (and throughout the day of course). The food was delicious, fresh, and full of local flavor

Every meal was a treat – varied and beautifully presented! The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, making us feel welcome from the very first moment. There’s lot’s of sports activities also

He is also an osteopath that understand the physiology and mechanics of the muscle skeleton system, this allow him to personalize the training

We had an amazing week at Vivosa Apulia Resort! The location is absolutely stunning – surrounded by nature and just a 10-minute walk through pine trees from a beautiful beach with crystal-clear water

Very nice! In the mornings, from 10 am to 12 pm, children communicate with animals (goats, rabbits, turtles, birds, horseback riding). There are tennis courts, table tennis tables, football fields

He resolved my back pain that I was having for long time in very small amount of time. I was impressed honestly! The indoor gym unfortunately is too small. I wish the Vivosa resort hat a bigger indoor gym

What was good - rooms were clean and spacious - pool areas were large - kids area was good Here is what was not so good - check in at 5pm is the latest of any hotel I have stayed in and it took ages to get my keys despite there being 3 people on reception - they charge you EUR 30 per night on top of the room rate for the ‘use of the facilities’ which is ridiculous - the WiFi was down at night in...

Breakfast was just ok. Eggs were not very tasty. A lot of bread to choose from if you like that. Could use some pancakes or french toast.

Bedding not changed once in a week and toilet and sink not cleaned! Probably overstretched cleaning team doing way too much. The lifeguard on the big pool could use some mannners! As the lady manager at the beach bar

Their dedication and attention to detail truly made our stay memorable. Overall, Torre Cintola deserves a perfect score of 10 for its fantastic environment, incredible food and drinks, and exceptional staff

Nice resort on the seaside Didn’t like that you couldn’t have anything to eat after nine at night. When travelling and arrive late, you have no option. Other than that, nice place to stay

Stunning resort, the kids club is outstanding and the evening shows are really good. The room was very clean when we arrived but the daily clean was not good at all

The room assigned to us was that of a two-star hotel: non-working air conditioning, narrow bathroom with a 1950s shower cabin with a fixed arm shower. Swimming pool closed, SPA also for renovation

I had a wonderful stay at Hotel Tiziano. The breakfast was delicious, and the hot chocolate was amazing better than in many other hotels I’ve stayed at

Beautiful stay just steps from the center of Lecce... Comfortable and welcoming location with a beautiful pool... Super breakfast!!!

Modern structure, located near the historic center of Lecce, easily reachable on foot. Very kind and helpful staff. Excellent breakfast. Thank you!

The hotel's excellent location allows you to move around comfortably by car, with the very convenient possibility of parking available on site.

Our room was in comparison with the rest of the hotel very modern and the large window overlooking the swimming pool was a nice feature. We did like the hotel as we don’t mind the lack of a personal touch

A special thank you to the staff for their help in a difficult situation – they found and returned my lost wedding ring. We’re incredibly grateful and will definitely come back! 💛

On the bright side, the outdoor gym was incredible, never crowded and with all machines and equipment we liked and use. Staff was being attentive , professional, and available to assist with our needs

We stayed in Grandserena at the end of September (10 to 24th). Our stay was really pleasant and enjoyable, especially before September 15. It was time for the great entertainment and sport activities

Also I would like to mention some areas for improvement: The inconsistency in food seasoning and the assortment in the buffet; The information about the seasonal/monthly set of activities

Mornings begin with the scent of coffee and sea breeze; evenings end in quiet luxury. The staff are attentive yet discreet, making you feel both cared for and independent

We were assume some water sport activities, but was not have any. We prefer to know when and what types of sport activities are available for the visitors

Hey i am Dheeraj from india recently i am on tour of puglia i stay in cala Corvino I don’t speak Italian well they help me kn everything. One of the best resort and restaurant I visit in Italy

The only decent thing was the entertainment for the children (the elves were great with them) and the food for the lunches and dinner was nice. As for the rest we weren't impressed

There are features that are superbe, others that need improvement. Great features: location, swimming pools, personnel at the swimming pool and for lunch/dinner

The best thing is that the staff here is very nice. I want to tell all of you that whenever you are on a tour to Puglia, you must visit Cala Corvino, you will get every kind of facility here

I have seen many hotels but this one is the best among all . The open environment and greenery make it even more beautiful. It is truly a five star hotel and the staff is also very helpful.

The bed was broken, the door handle kept coming off, the bathroom door constantly got stuck, holes everywhere, no WiFi, barely any channels working on TV even for the kids

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

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.

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

A good experience but lacking in some areas for a hotel at this price point. Overall, the facilities are pretty good although the lower large pool is getting pretty tired

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

The un renovated rooms are small but decent enough. mostly because I don't expect to come to Italy and have my espresso out of a automatic machine, and their was no alternative to pay for a proper coffee

We stayed two nights (October 31 and November 4, 2025) as our niece was arriving on a late night flight from Barcelona and flying out on an early morning flight. 7 km from the airport making it very convenient

After visiting my family, I had to leave early in the morning, and this was the perfect place to stay before my flight

The restaurant staff was attentive without being intrusive. The will now be our go to hotel whenever arriving or departing Bari, Puglia, Italy. We highly recommend the Parco del Principi Hotel Congress & Spa

The restaurant was absolutely outstanding with a wide ranging menu of pastas, seafood and mean items. All dishes were well presented, using high quality products and all were delicious

Very clean hotel and the bed was very nice. We only stayed one night, it was quiet. Staff was very helpful, and the airport shuttle made our trip to the airport stress free.

Check in and out was very easy; all hotel staff were efficent and polite. The underground parking was clean and very easy to navigate

The divide between adults and family areas while evident doesn't make you feel excluded. Some days we would drop our child in the kids club and head over to the adult pool but also happy to just around the kid's pool

All the staff were extremely friendly and helpful. The concierge staff in particular went above and beyond normal expectations. The property is very well situated to explore the many must see towns in Puglia

Stunning hotel. What a beautiful hotel. Amazing efficient service. Lovely pools. Like much and dinner quite pricey but to be expected in such a high end resort.

Amazing place on earth Feels like being in your own palazzo Great brach club, main pool and kids pool Very cool restaurants and food Friendly and highly attentive service Keep it up

Three things to look into, the WiFi is not very strong, the beach/pool towels are old and fraying and there was no hair conditioner in the bathroom

I must say that after asking the very helpful receptionist for some conditioner, 3 little plastic bottles were delivered to the room. Having said that i can’t wait to come back, this hotel is just wonderful

Almost every night theres something happening- like a theater or stand up comedy and everything is in Italian, me and my family know a few languages close to Italian so we could understand a thing or two but honesty sometimes we did felt kind of left out, otherwise it was great! The food was awesome, (And everything was written in italian, english and german which was great) the people were super kind...

We came from Lithuania in 2026 of April. We're amazed from beautiful city, friendly staff and delicious food. Thank you very much, *****

We were all inclusive but staff seemed to think they were doing us a favour getting us a drink. The pool bar was the only place to get drinks during the day and very limited options

The apertivo evenings were a joke and there were long queues to get a drink again very restricted options and if they ran out - tough

Staff in the restaurant tried to be helpful but seemed to be in fear of the senior staff who were openly contemptuous of guests so think the culture of the hotel needs addressing

Family friendly place, many guests are with little children

This is one of the few hotels where I can truly say that the attention to detail made me feel at home. Loved the room, loved the breakfast, loved the staff. Excellent!

  The hotel is stylish, immaculate and cleverly laid out.  Very easy private parking for only €10 per day.  The gym met all my needs while the pool is another massive plus in this great laid back suburb of Bari

We spent just one night after landing in the very early morning at Bari Airport. We didn’t see much of the hotel itself, but… the breakfast was absolutely gorgeous

I wouldn't recommend some of the local shops for Chinese visitors as they weren't very welcoming; it's better to eat at the hotel. The hotel breakfast, however, is definitely worth praising, it was really good

The hotel is located in a new area with no attractions or shops nearby. If you walk a bit further, there are residential areas with plenty of shops and restaurants

Downsides, other than the building, is the underground parking (be careful if you have a van or 4x4) and, first of all, the location of the hotel (far from Bari Vecchia, in a very depressing neighbourhood

We chose a mid-range room and received a triple room with a balcony. The pool (four 25-meter lanes with starting blocks) and the fitness center (equipped for weight training, dumbbells, and boxing) were excellent

The staff were very accomodating. We were given an upgrade to larger room when our initial room was too small for our family

If you're near reception or by the pool… be prepared for noise until late at night. Of the three hotels on our itinerary, this was the least spacious and least pleasant, and the food was decent but nothing special

Was very impressed with their service, location was great and compliments to Biagio in the restaurant. We arrived to breakfast just as they were finishing up, but they were so accomodating and welcomed us all the same

Breakfast was simple but adequate. The air conditioning and refrigerator in the room were a bit weak. The hotel staff was very courteous and friendly

Very happy with the service, will definitely be back again

A very comfortable hotel with a magnificent sea view. A pleasant pool and a generous and delicious breakfast. Impeccable service

Finally, a big shout-out to Alessandro who not only is really nice, but also gave us valuable advice on places to visit and even some information about the history of the city. He made our stay all the more pleasant

We had a wonderful stay at the Delfino hotel. Both the lobby and the rooms are beautiful. The view from the restaurant, where we eat well, is great. It was also really practical to be able to park on-site

I’m afraid they have spoiled me for other hotels because the food here is also very homemade and spectacular. I would go out of my way to stay here even though I don’t love most of Taranto

But most of all, the personnel is super nice. The cleaning of the room was quick and efficient and the staff in the restaurant is caring

Excellent hotel, will stay again  if ever back to Taranto.

My family and I stayed for several days and we were the only family we saw. The average age of everyone we saw was 65+. And we saw dozens of people at the pool/beach/breakfast/around the hotel

The pool temperature was just right

My daughter is in grade school and was very excited for the pool. So she was playing and giggling in the pool. We received many less than friendly looks from all the elderly guests trying to sleep/sunbathe

My family and I really enjoyed staying at this resort. The rooms were spacious and clean. Part of our resort package we had breakfast and dinner

Everything is very clean, the whole complex was spotless. The staff are incredibly friendly and extremely helpful. We had a birthday cake made by the chef for our daughter's birthday, very good price, too

The things the hotel could do better is that their staff generally don't understand English. The hotel's private beach and jetty were also used by local people, which was annoying

*They hear someone approaching the room and Zero hides* Mendl: Go to sleep Agatha: Yes, Heir Mendl *Mendl goes away and Zero comes out of hiding* Zero: Hide this! Agatha: No! Zero: Okay, but take it anyway

It was like being in a palace! With a beautiful view to Adriatic sea, with a balcony, the room with high ceilings and a spacious bathroom. Rich breakfast. Friendly stuff. Everything was great!

The property is a bit dated but convenient as it's located right on the town's main road. Superb sea views and excellent breakfast. 🤩

” Breakfast was very nice, with a good selection of food. However, if you wanted to eat outside in the lovely outdoor seating area, you were expected to clear your own table — something we found unusual for a hotel

Very friendly staff, EXCELLENT CLEANLINESS, excellent breakfast (the breakfast staff is exquisite). COMPLIMENTS

Not the hotel’s fault, but worth noting — there’s a bar directly across the street that played music until at least 1 a. , with people often lingering and talking loudly until about 2 a

Other drinks and snacks available 'a pagamento' *Smashing pool, steam room, sauna, jacuzzi. *Some supermarkets dotted around eg Conad, about 5 min walk. grumpy bar staff but I'll forgive him!

We had a good time at the hotel. The only problem was the lack of air conditioning and that the rooms didn’t have enough lighting. It seems that in Italy they don’t offer air conditioning at certain time of the year

Thank God, one of the workers at our floor got us a fan. Also Mariangeles, who was cleaning the garage, was wonderful giving us great advice for the hotel and the area

Location-wise, it wasn’t great since it’s quite far from the old city — a taxi ride cost around €25–30, which was a bummer. If your main plan is to visit the old city, this may not be the best choice

Reception staff were very warm and welcoming! The only downsides: the restaurant and bar server lacked training and professionalism, although he was very kind (which is appreciated)

A bit far from the center but the hotel provided a very efficient shuttle service, on time and super friendly. We met Mariangela, who was extremely helpful and sweet, giving us recommendations and excellent service

One of our favorites This is an amazing resort. Beautiful beach and pool. Very nice rooms, wonderful service and an excellent breakfast buffet, beachfront lunch and three course dinner. We will be back.

Great experience! Special mention for the Latin dance classes with Gilberto latino. Amazing energy, talent and attitude. His classes and presence were the highlight of our stay. Thank you!

Both a huge and high quality sweet selection (which we don’t appreciate but know many do) as well as made to order egg dishes, good bread, cheese, ham and even a juice station where you could make your own juice with a choice of many fruits as well ass healthy vegetables including fresh ginger

OK, the rooms are not brand new and it is a little longer walk to Vieste, but therefore you get: clean and well maintained rooms, very friendly and professional staff, free parking, a hotel owned beach club just across the street and an impressive atmosphere

The morning staff and especially the service and the kindness of Camilla, made the whole experience of staying at Pizzomunno so comforting. All the personal at the bars and the beach was perfect

The beach area is also very spacious and gives a luxurious feeling compared to the other umbrella teas along the beach. Something we really appreciated about the hotel was the breakfast

The staff were lovely. The rooms and the AC was great. The pool needed a little clean but the kids loved it all the same. I definitely would stay here again when I come back

Very nice hotel, amazing SPA and relaxing outdoor pool. Rooms are comfortable, especially the ones with shared balcony (especially for groups). Spritz at the bar is very good and personnel is very kind

The love and warmth of the staff especially Rita and Francesco

The perfect hotel for immersing yourself in this peaceful and serene setting. Excellent cleanliness, helpful and knowledgeable staff. If I had one small complaint, it would be the breakfast

There was a tiny refrigerator with water and a safe. The bathroom door didn’t close. It would have been nice to have prior notice rather than just walk into it

I liked the easy accessibility to St Padre Pio by simply crossing the street. The room was also very nice with a lovely pool to cool off

For us, Alborea is much more than just a destination: it’s a tradition, a family ritual, a place where every year we find warm hospitality, nature, comfort, and genuine beauty

We are an extended family made up of two grandparents, three families, and kids ranging from 10 to 17 years old, and for the past ten years, we’ve chosen Alborea Eco Lodge as our summer holiday destination

A special mention goes to the Zurawski Band, whose live music created truly beautiful moments, adding a touch of quality and atmosphere to the already engaging entertainment offered by Bluserena’s amazing Dream Team

Once again this year, the nautical activities were a big hit, especially with the kids, who enthusiastically took part in windsurfing, sailing, and canoeing

The food this year was perhaps the best we’ve had in the past ten years. A sincere thank-you and congratulations to the entire kitchen staff

Also the lady at the beach bar truly loves her job ;) thank you, we shall return

Beautiful panorama. Full of great activities for kids and families. 2 swimming polls and 2 beautiful and charming beaches. Evening animation.

I love Pugnochiuso is very exciting and fantastic, is a nice place for family holidays. The entire environment is very neat, good food, excellent entertainment and cheerful staffs.

Great place for older kids to have fun. It is a closed in are, so kids can rome freely without there parents worrying.

The place has the best water sports in the gargano in provincia di foggia italia...

I loved the place and i will definetly go back to this hotel...

Nice but rather simple hotel within the resort. No dinner, bar or service during the day, but availble within the resort. But the resort in general is great. We were probably the only non-Italiens on the place
