"Very good welcome, efficient collection of keys and the best information book I’ve ever seen. Very comfortable and clean. Excellent views and sunsets from the roof "

"The property was fantastic, set just outside ostuni in amongst the olive groves. The property was large, with a great pool, hot tub, and outside kitchen and eating areas. We were a group of 7 and had lots of space, with 2 couple enjoying their own private annexes, and the others having plenty of space on the main house. The outside kitchen was a group favourite, with great cooking facilities and lots of space for both cooking and eating. Lots of space for parking and easy to find! Highly...

"The house was wonderful. Host was fantastic. He had the house stocked with the food that we asked for prior to our arrival. No microwave. The wifi doesn’t reach the Trullo house. There should be an extender added. The Trullo is very cool the AC works well throughout the whole house and Trullo."

"Not really impressed"

"Der Aufenthalt war sehr schön, nur dass die Ausstattung nicht ganz den geschönten Bildern entsprach! Außerdem war ein großer Kritikpunkt das schwache Internet!"

"We had a fantastic stay at the villa, it was very clean and comfortable. The outdoor area with the pool, dining area and bbq were lovely and the huge gardens were beautiful. The Villa was well equipped, the beds were comfy and all rooms were very spacious. The location was great very close to shops and restaurants and it served as a good base to explore the wider area. A mid-stay clean and towel/linen change would’ve been appreciated- otherwise all absolutely perfect- thank you!"

"The trulli are beautifully finished with everything you could need. I would highly recommend this place and would stay here again without hesitation. The location in the countryside is breathtaking. The pool, grounds and inside of the trulli are perfect. The hosts went above and beyond. We had a flat tire about 20 minutes from the trulli and she helped arrange the tow and tire change and picked us up from the roadside. "

"Beautiful property in the country. A small car is needed to access it. We stayed end of season & trulli was a bit cool/damp - heating’s an extra charge. Hot water worked intermittently in shower -it couldn’t be repaired during our 5 day stay. There are security cameras at property/pool which appear to be monitored - host contacted us at 1:30am when we forgot to turn off outdoor lights. "

"We stayed in this villa with friends. Three couples all together and it was extremely comfortable. Plenty of room, great cooking facilities (including the use of the wood barbecue). The outdoor area was amazing and relaxing by the pool was enjoyed by all. We found the location perfect to explore Alberobello and other towns in the region. We had flight delays which made checking difficult but this was no problem for our hosts. Communication was fantastic and having Nino deliver fresh pastries and...

"Angela and Antonio were fabulous hosts of this beautiful property. They were incredibly helpful and responded right away to our requests. We were warned that staying in the area without our own car was not advisable. However, the hosts were able to connect us with a wonderful car service that exceeded our expectations. The special touches, like freshly baked desserts and a memorable pizza night, just made our stay that much more enjoyable."

"Casa Giancone was fabulously comfortable and well-equipped and we loved our week in the Puglian sunshine! The large pool, with plenty of shady seating around it, was perfect in the current heatwave, and we loved the location away from, but close by to, several pretty towns (and tasty gelaterias!). Just bring some mosquito repellent in summer. Alex was a very attentive host - thank you! The house has lots of leaflets from local attractions but our only suggestion that would make exploring the...

"Great villa and amazing pool and gardens. Maria was wonderful and very helpful. Locorotondo is a great base for exploring Puglia."

"We did not have any heatingfrom 11 until the 17. All clothes were damp clothes. Not very well. Maybe we could expect some money back. We did not get what we payed for?"

"Wonderful stay in a magical setting although on our last day it was cold and rainy and it was difficult to get warm inside the Trulli, it felt cold and damp "
