Sasha deserves to be a Superhost! Her communication throughout the booking and stay was superb. There was so much information about how to deal with the property and also helpful hints about where to go locally - restaurants, bars and day-trips. We were met locally by a British couple who showed us how to find the trulli and made sure we settled in well. There was a welcome pack of provisions which were gratefully received after our plane delay and hideous wait for our hire car at Brindisi (45 mins and I think we got off lightly). The property itself exceeded expectations - spotlessly clean and immaculate - so much so we struggled to see how people had been living there since the refurbishment as everything still felt brand new. The beds were very comfortable and the bathrooms good with plenty of hot water and good water pressure. There were well fitted mosquito nets and blinds everywhere. There were lovely towels and also pool towels too. The kitchen was very well equipped.
The trulli itself was superbly done and very stylish. We all loved the rooms and it was a great place to hang out for the day. We travelled as a party of 2 adults and 5 children aged 8 - 15 and it offered something for everyone. Please note that the pool is not fenced off for toddlers. There are also steps up the side of the property which lead onto the roof. This was a great feature to be able to go up there at night to see the stars and appreciate the features of the trulli roof, but could be a nightmare if you had mischevious children who like climbing!! The trulli was in a very tranquil setting and offered great privacy. This does come with the draw-back of not being within easy walking distance of any where but as long as you are aware of this and know what to expect it isn't a problem. The local town is quite nice but we found ourselves travelling reasonable distances to go to the beach or visit places, but I think this is common for the region. Whilst were were there we suffered a bit with unseasonable quantities of flies and mosquitoes which were annoying but again, you are in the middle of an olive grove and nature is to be expected.
Overall it was a fabulous spot to visit the region and I would highly recommend it.
