This was our second time staying here, first under this management and owner. We were pleasantly surprised by many positive changes made since the first time we stayed here (five years ago). David, the caretaker, is extremely helpful, flexible and communicative. Five stars to him. The property is beautiful and well-located with proximity to Ceglie and Ostuni as well as Cisternino, etc. a bit further afield.
I would say for almost $7,000 for two weeks, a few rather important elements were missing. Although our room was air-conditioned, our kids’ (the trulli bedroom) was not, and they were very hot and uncomfortable many nights. We ended up with a fan for each kiddo and that seemed to keep them comfortable enough, but again, for the price I think they should have been able to sleep more comfortably. The second issue is the hot water heater in the master bath. It is tiny and does not continuously heat, therefore the hot water in the shower lasts barely five minutes. I had to turn the water off while shampooing, again while conditioning and then I still had to rinse in freezing water. Not exactly warranting the high price tag.
Overall we enjoyed ourselves very much. Plenty of outdoor space and a lovely pool. Wonderful communication. Thanks again!
