Overview
Offering an outdoor stone pool, Tenuta Monacelle is housed in an 18th-century convent and 6 traditional farm houses immersed in a 22-hectare peaceful garden. Located in the town of Selva di Fasano, it offers bike rental and free parking. At the Monacelle, rooms are either in 1 of the farm houses or in a Trullo Apulian hut. All are en suite, and the farm house ones are equipped with air-conditioning and flat-screen satellite TV. The swimming pool area includes 2 hydromassage pools and a shallow water area. Il Ciliegeto restaurant serves traditional Apulian cuisine, made using fresh and local ingredients. Meals are complimented by an extensive Italian wine list. The Tenuta Monacelle is just 12 km from Alberobello, UNESCO World Heritage Site. The famous Grotte di Castellana caves are a 25-minute drive away.

“Truly enchanting place”
Tenuta Monacelle is a truly enchanting place, as if pulled straight from the pages of a book. It combines the charm of southern Italy’s traditional trulli architecture with modern design, creating a unique and beautiful atmosphere. The property features two spacious, well-located parking areas, adding to the convenience. The staff are incredibly welcoming and supportive, enhancing the overall experience. Rooms are spacious, spotless, and comfortable, but for a more authentic touch, I highly recommend booking one of the trulli. The on-site restaurant is excellent, offering fresh and delicious food. The scenery is breathtaking, making this a perfect spot for anyone seeking peace, quiet, and a chance to re-energize. Additionally, it’s conveniently close to wonderful nearby restaurants and attractions in Bari and Fasano. Highly recommended for a relaxing and memorable stay!
