Recent guest Brian, from Texas, writes in his family's review:

'We have rented using VRBO in many countries including Australia, U.K., France and Portugal to name but a few. The Trulli property is clearly our favorite and it was extremely difficult to leave.'

Truly wonderful property in a fantastic location
Beautifully restored Trulli in large grounds, beautiful swimming pool, with plenty of shade when needed. Stunning views from the top of the hill over the Itria valley. Neil the property manager was great and so helpful. All this just 15 mins away from some beautiful “white towns” with excellent restaurants and good markets. Wonderful location for a Puhlian holiday.

Great Trulli experience
We had a great experience staying at this property in July. The house was very clean and the pool was fantastic. The place is located close to all major towns and attractions (within 1-2 hours’ drive), perfect as a base for visiting nearby towns. Highly recommended! The communication with the host and manager was timely and clear. Thanks for having us!

Trulli Fantastic
This place has got it all, far enough away from everything to 'trulli' relax, yet close enough to dip into the local highlights to really experience Puglia at its best. I love this place and can't wait to go back. Oh, and the planting around the pool is 'trulli' amazing!

Great location to explore from
Wonderful location to base ourselves to visit all the important towns and locations in Puglia. The trulli was very traditional but had everything we needed for our week's adventure. The pool was particularly good and long enough for a bit of exercise. The property is located close to a national cycleway/footpath which is a converted Aqueduct and so helps a lot on levelling the hills for running / cycling / walking for those wanting to explore. Early June is a great time to visit, its warm/hot enough to stay out and swim, but not unbearably hot and the most of the tourist hotspots are very welcoming and not too crowded. Another plus was the bed was comfortable. There's a wonderful selection of DVDs - those that came free with Sunday papers, if it does rain. Wifi was also good.

Trulli Lovely
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Glen and Steve's Trulli. The Trulli is well equipped and has everything you need for a great holiday and feels like a home from home rather than a basic holiday rental. Car hire is essential when staying here as the Trulli is down a country lane between Martina Franca and Ostuni. It is a great base for exploring the area. We enjoyed our breakfasts and lunches on the terrace over looking the pool and the lovely views. I would definitely recommend this Trulli to anyone wishing to stay in Puglia.

Perfect place for exploring Puglia
We had a wonderful two week holiday at Trulli Vista dividing our time between lounging around by the pool and exploring Puglia. The weather was amazing and the property perfectly placed for both pursuits. The trulli is tastefully decorated, clean and comfortable and sits in beautiful countryside not far from Ostuni and Martina Franca. You can be on a beach in 20, 30 minutes, and Lecce, Gallipoli, Matura and Alberobello are all within easy driving distance. It was difficult to leave! Communication with Glenn and Steve and Neil was excellent, and I really appreciated that cleaners were included in the price and did a mid stay clean - more holiday for me! Thanks so much Glenn and Steve for sharing your wonderful property with us. Hope to be back some time.

Lovely place!
The trulli was perfect and a great experience for us, a family of 4. Great location in a quiet countryside, with comfortable furnishings, well equiped kitchen, and high-quality linens. Central heating was a huge plus (when the outside temperature was in the 50s!). Martina Franca has many great places to eat, and a fun place to be for the "passegiata". Be sure to visit other nearby towns, Lecce, the caves at the Castellana Grotto, and Matera. Puglia is beautiful and so unspoiled by the tourists. Special thanks to Mimmo for his help during (and after) our stay!

A gem.
This trulli is very special, planned with great attention to detail, very clean and well equipped, yet also relaxed and comfortable. We ate our meals on the shady terrace, we swam in the pool in the light of the setting sun, we lounged on the comfy cushions in the pergola, looking over the orchard beyond. The lovely towns and local restaurants all around are a delight, and people everywhere were friendly and helpful as we struggled with our limited Italian. We can't wait to come back to this lovely gem in its beautiful setting.

Beautiful trullo, spectacular country setting, wonderful host
Our friendly host Glen was an amazing help from our arrival to departure, going out of his way to offer advice and assistance. We absolutely loved the accommodation and the amazing gardens and pool area. Such a peaceful haven! Unfortunately, our hire car did not have GPS as requested, so we had some difficulty exploring the area. It was a pleasant walk along country lanes past beautiful trulli to the Mini-market, where we were able to purchase fresh fruit and delicious hot food, made fresh daily. The trullo was very well equipped with everything we needed. It was a truly memorable experience to stay there and we can understand why some visitors return every year. We highly recommend this country paradise.

Quiet Romantic Trulli in a beautiful setting
What an outstanding time we had in an outstanding property. In the hills of the beautiful Puglian countryside. Location is perfect near Ostuni, Ceglie Messipica and Martina Franca. The beach is a short drive away. Terrific 2 bedroom Trulli with all the comforts of home. Very romantic and quiet setting. After a day out exploring the Puglian countryside it is nice to come "home" and enjoy a glass of local vino while sitting in a such a beautiful setting. I high recommend it and the owners really do try to make your stay top notch. May seem off the beaten path to most people from the USA, but you could not ask for more. Loved it!

Great and unique vacation in a Trullo
The Trullo is well equiped, nothing missing, important for us was that the heating system worked perfectly (during nights it gets pretty cold in April). The owners are caring about their customers in a way, which was for us outstandnig and rarely to be found! Everythings was as described and met our expectation in every aspect. Great location for people who like the nature, nothing for party or club goers. The location is also good for making tours, be it Castel del Monte or in the opposite direction, e.g. Lecce. The sea is in about half an hour by car, but in summer the own pool is much more convenient and easier to reach, just some steps. Summary: the Trullo is great and recommendable to friends.

Beautiful house, needs a spring clean
Beautiful property, lovely garden and all amenities. Great position. However, needs a thorough clean. Hairs found in shower drain hole and shower base, grubby elsewhere, particularly kitchen. Dirty cupboards, drawer interiors, front of fridge. Floors in general not perfectly clean, particularly corners. Despite this, a lovely house. For the fairly expensive rates in high season, I expected a little better. Thank you.

Quaint, wonderful bike trails, great location, peaceful
My partner, myself and adult son enjoyed at week at the Trullivista. Communication from the outset was excellent and prompt . Hazel the property manager handled the checking in and out personally and was available for questions. A lovely rural location right on the amazing bike trails built for bikes and walkers on the aqueduct system. A small grocer and cafe just minutes away with excellent homemade meals, cheeses and all one requires. Handy to sightseeing and wonderful towns and beaches. Traveling from abroad makes packing essentials like shampoo and soaps etc tricky so having some there would be wonderful as a nice touch. Kitchen well stocked with basics. Recommend some sharp knives and nonstick pans for those of us who enjoyed cooking meals. Highly recommend Vito at Nature Bike Tours for bike rentals. Appreciated the bubbly and locally made olive oil very much!

A unique experience
We very much enjoyed our stay at this pretty trulli - our first experience in one of these historic dwellings and our first time in Puglia. The pool area and pergola were great and really enhanced the R&R aspect of our stay, much needed as this was the third week of our Italian "tour". The main bedroom in the trulli was a delight - almost like sleeping in a little chapel! Had we had more time and energy we would have hired bikes to make the most of the cycle trail, conveniently situated next to the property but the area was great for exploring the fascinating towns nearby and for sampling the numerous good restaurants. We were very well looked after by Annie, the manager of the trulli who was very helpful regarding recommendation of good restaurants, supermarkets etc. It was also great to meet Glenn who was happy to take on board a few suggestions we made which would have further enhanced our stay, including the provision of more wardrobe facilities for the second bedroom. As there were only 2 of us using the property, this was not a problem but would be for a couple staying.

A cheerful, cozy stay
The Ostuni trulli was clean, comfortable and cozy with all the amenities we could have hoped for.The alcove sitting room off the master bedroom was our favorite little spot to enjoy a glass of wine and reflect on each day. The kitchen was well equipped with everything a traveling chef might look for. It was so pleasing to experience all the nature that surrounds the house--the ancient olive out the kitchen window, the flowering almonds beyond the pool, the irises perkily waving nearby, and the prickly cactus everywhere. The trulli is in a quiet, peaceful area, but it is centrally located and just a short ride to all the charming small towns of the Itria Valley. The Sarolo winery on the next street was a great place to get provisions for the week! The very best feature of the house is one of the owners, Glenn! No matter how many questions we asked him in advance or during our stay (including a desperate "where is the hair dryer?!"), he responded like he was our best friend--delighted to provide any and all information to make our stay wonderful. We would highly recommend this rental to others and hope to return again someday. Donna and Joe, Rhode Island, USA
