Villa Alorro and all of the other villas that are part of El Corte dei Trulli are truly lovely. Francesca and Mina have been great hostesses. We arrived very late from Bari airport but Mina was there to welcome us to the (very clean) villa and show us around.
The villas are very private. Each villa has its own private driveway and each is connected by a small walking path to the shared pool/outdoor-dining area. We had great fun using the outdoor wood-oven to create our pizza's and we used the barbecue multiple times. The villas are surrounded by olive trees, fig trees, rosemary bushes, tomato plants and prickly pears all of which you are free to pick what you like!
The pool is great with children as it features a large shallow part where toddlers can play freely. A car is a must as the nearest village (st Michel de Salentino) is a 10-minute drive. Please make sure to visit the lovely towns in the area. Our favorite was Cisternino followed by Ostuni and Locorotondo. The narrow streets are packed with the cutest restaurants!
The only small downside was the presence of mosquitos. Make sure to pack some insect repellent with DEET and you should be fine.
We fully recommend this beautiful place and would love to visit El Corte de Trulli again in the future! Thanks again Mina and Francesca for the lovely time!
