“Very beautiful Tenuta”
A very charming Tenuta in Alezio, close to Gallipoli. The whole area is very spacious and consists of the main house, a couple of Trullis with additional rooms and a large swimming pool right in the middle of the area. The rooms are clean and very nice, stuff is very friendly and breakfast is exceptional. Highly recommended.

A Luxurious Paradise in an Olive Grove Our stay at this accommodation was absolutely perfect! Nestled within a beautiful olive grove, the property truly felt like stepping into a luxurious paradise from the moment we arrived. The private, enclosed area provides a sense of seclusion and tranquility that is hard to find elsewhere. The accommodation itself was impeccable, and having our own terrace was a fantastic bonus, perfect for relaxing. The pool was a delightful addition, offering a refreshing escape. Breakfast each morning was outstanding, featuring a wonderful selection of homemade products that truly enhanced the experience. Last but certainly not least, our host, Sarah, was incredibly kind and attentive, making us feel welcome and cared for throughout our stay. We will definitely be returning to this amazing place!

“Fantastic way to start our Italian road trip”
The staff were exceptionally helpful throughout the trip. They made it stress free as they helped arrange taxis to and from local towns if we both wanted a drink. The hotel was lovely, with private little outhouses for rooms. The pool was also great. If we came back to this area of Italy we would definitely stay again.

“Incredible stay, really beautiful location. Staff (Sara) were excellent. Breakfast delicious”
The site is beautiful, incredible views and the pool is kept very clean and the garden is perfectly maintained. It is in a great location as you can walk (about 20 mins) into Alezio. 10 Min drive to Gallipoli. We liked the balance of being close to towns but still feeling a million miles away from them

Our accommodation was upgraded from a deluxe room a new garden trulli. All furnishings were high quality and everything was very clean. The surrounding garden was beautiful and the pool area was beautiful with lovely views, shade from the sun and plenty of room.

“Super friendly people nice location and rooms”
Small and personal hotel, very friendly people who did their best to make fantastic holiday for us. A very nice and clean room and a good breakfast. If you want to find a nice restaurant of have any other question just ask Sarah or one of the others and the wil try to help you. You need a car wenn you go to Tenuta Monticelli because it’s in a very quiet location. We liked it very much and if we go to Puglia again we will certainly try to stay here again.
