An unforgettable stay at Palazzo! We spent a spectacular week with my family and two other couples with children. The property is a true gem: extremely comfortable rooms, every amenity, and a simply wonderful pool (and jacuzzi). For those who love to cook, the kitchens are professionally equipped, like a restaurant. Special thanks to Antonella and Nino, the housekeeper and gardener: quiet, discreet, and invaluable presences, who took care of the house and us every morning with great dedication. Finally, Emanuele was the perfect host: he attentively looked after us and advised us every day, ensuring everything was impeccable. We will definitely be back!
A beautiful, well-maintained building with ample space (there are two kitchens, one indoor and one outdoor, both very well-equipped, which are noteworthy) that facilitate moments of privacy and relaxation. The garden is very large and well-maintained, with vegetation that keeps it cool. There's a large pool (cleaned daily). The second outdoor kitchen is very convenient, as is the outdoor table, which can comfortably seat more than 20 people. The owner is very courteous and attentive to guests' needs. The staff is particularly discreet and efficient. A great place for a relaxing vacation (many seaside destinations are within 15-25 minutes).
Palazzo is an extraordinary residence that perfectly embodies authentic Salento hospitality. The property can comfortably accommodate up to 20 people, ensuring all guests privacy, comfort, and ample space for a relaxing holiday.
The highlight of the property is the magnificent garden, lush and meticulously maintained, featuring a large swimming pool that makes your stay even more exclusive and enjoyable.
The owner greeted us upon arrival with great courtesy, helpfulness, and professionalism, making us feel immediately welcome.
For the day-to-day management of the residence, the property provides discreet, efficient, and highly professional staff, always available when needed but never intrusive. Thanks to this impeccable organization, your stay becomes a top-notch experience, ideal for those seeking a first-class holiday in the heart of Salento.
This building is beautiful. The space is light, clean, and high-end. A true sanctuary in Salento, just 10 minutes from Castro, Porto Badisco, and other destinations.
