All the staff are so helpful and friendly. Breakfast was great! So many lovely patisserie items and then I had smoked salmon and poached eggs every day… my favourite! Pool was sparkling clean and always plenty of sun loungers. Location quite remote but we found a few good restaurants nearby and a friendly little local bar with a talking parrot!

Un service très attentionné et dévoué. Un emplacement très favorable pour visiter le Salento. Par contre un ameublement vieux, moche, encombrant et non fonctionnel, une salle de bains avec une douche indigne d’un établissement si récent.
