Great location, and people. Very friendly - enjoyed my stay there very much

Cursi town not very attractive, very limited dining options, had to drive more often than I wanted - a missed opportunity to provide dining in-house.

Something of an oasis in the arid countryside; lovely pool (still open in October); good breakfast, although a bit samey by day 5; large and (initially) comfortable bed; good air con; conveniently placed for exploring southern Puglia.

Nothing! We just fell in love with it!

Wow! We loved this property. We booked the garden room which is just stunning, it has a bedroom, a massive bath and another bathroom. Plus you get the whole garden with loungers and a patio! It was amazing. Plus fridge & kettle. The breakfast was lovely and in a beautiful room overlooking the amazing pool. The sun loungers had pillows that were the comfiest thing I’ve ever lay on!!! It was so peaceful, most days we had the pool to ourselves when we finished exploring. A hire car is a must to make the most of this beautiful area. Our favourite places to visit were: Castro - beautiful sea swimming, boat trips and lovely food places. Otranto (think spelt right!) loved the beach here and ate here in the evenings and had outstanding food. Marina Serra - stunning natural sea pool We stayed 5 nights and honestly on leaving just wanted to plan our return! I loved the staff and especially Will’s dad! He had the kindest smile and the best wave!! Thank you very much, Sally & Nick

Towels for the pool

Excelent !

Stayed in September 2023

We thought it would be a good idea to be located away from the coast but the village was very quiet and although 3 restaurants were suggested by the hotel to try, two were shut for holidays and the other wasn't really what we were looking for. There is a serviced bar at the pool which closes at around 7pm but as we drove to Otranto on both evenings for dinner, it would have been nice to have returned and shared a drink before bed. We did think it was a bit mean to charge 5 euros for a towel at the pool ....

The property is located on the outskirts of a small village and is somewhat of an oasis which makes it a good base for those wanting to explore the area! Beautiful gardens well maintained and a good pool serviced with lots of sunbeds. The room was very clean albeit a little dark and very quiet at night, although we could hear people in the morning in adjacent rooms (TV noise) - but not an issue. Very pleasant staff and a truly excellent breakfast. Very safe with gates locked around 7pm.

Patrician walls were on the thin side and we could hear everything that went on in the next room Swimming pool steps were very dirty and fountain and jacuzzi never worked

Everything was good about the hotel apart from a few points below.

I liked everything. The only detail I didn't like is that during my stay there were one or two cars parked in front of the reception that ruined the beauty of the entrance garden.

Calm and relaxing stay. The pool area was very clean and not noisy. Great breakfast. If you have a car, it is an excellent location to visit Salento, just 20 minutes from Otranto or Lecce. Stuff was very kind.

Everything was perfect. You do need a car.

The welcome was very warm,the accommodation was very comfortable, the pool area was lovely, breakfast was delicious and William and his staff were very helpful. I would highly recommend this oasis in the Italian countryside. People in the local village were very friendly.

Nothing warrants any mention in the didn't like box.

The pool area is lovely. Our room was spacious, clean and very comfortable. All the staff were friendly and helpful. A really enjoyable stay. There are three restaurants within easy walking distance from the hotel and the hotel gives a comprehensive list of restaurants both close by and further afield.

Very nice staff. The rooms and the area were awesome. I recommend it for visiting Puglia, close to most interesting areas but enough away to give you the relax needed to recharge batteries. Very good breakfast

The surrounding town was unremarkable

Fabulous staff, stunning premise and one of the cleanest hotels we have ever stayed at.

Nothing really

The ambience, the service and the overall experience was exceptional! Located only 20 minutes from the most beautiful beach and sea I have ever been (baia dei Turchi), this place offers the best environment where you can relax and enjoy your summertime! Food also was absolutely fantastic with a breakfast which surpassed our best expectations. For anything ask the owner, William, who is super nice and always ready to support in making this a memorable experience for you 🌟

The mattress was too hard for our taste, but William provided a topper so that we could spare our bones. There were noisy guests who had no consideration for others. That is why we were glad to have our depandance.

We stayed in the dependance which was a good decision for us. This is a stone house a little further away from the main house. So we had our well-deserved peace and quiet. The house consists of a bedroom, another room with a Jacuzzi and a small bathroom with shower. It has a minibar and kettle with tea bags but unfortunately no coffee. Outside there is a small table with two chairs where we could have our afternoon aperitif. It has a relatively large closet. There is also a modern air conditioner which can be adjusted well. The complex has a large gate which is closed at night but can be opened by remote control which each guest receives. The breakfast in the form of a buffet is offered in a separate room near the pool. Coffee is served. The pool area is beautifully kept and the whole vegetation is impressive.

Services can be improved as the beach towels supply and the transport to the location.

The pool and the garden

A small resort, located in the middle of the heel of Italy's boot and it's a great starting point for discovering Salento. 15 min. drive to the nearest beach and cute town Otranto. Cursi otherwise is very sleepy town. The property is big and very well maintained. Breakfast is served in a dining room by the pool. There is lots of variety and food is of excellent quality. Staff very friendly and gives you lots of useful information, where to go and eat. The pool area is amazing. Room was nice with spacious bathroom. Big parking available behind the gate. Very safe. And last but not least, we would really want to thank you for help with flat tyre on our car.

Can't think of anything really, maybe more signs to be able to find it?

Beautiful spot in the middle of Puglia perfect for exploring. This family run country house was very personal and pretty, the family couldn't do enough for us.
