Everything, absolutely everything was PERFECT. Amazing restored palazzo with eye to detail and respect to history. Venue is absolutely breathtaking. Our apartment was comfortable, clean and lovely furbished. Breakfast was served in a pool/garden area and it was absolutely delicious - fresh fruit, lovely coffee - savory and sweet choices. Warm welcome from Salvatore who shared with us all tips and tricks regarding places to visit, restaurant to eat etc. And I cannot forget to mention sweetest Enza whose lovely smile in the morning cheered us up for a good start of a day! Our stay I Castriota Palazzo was absolutely amazing - do not hesitate to book your stay! Alezio itself is a small, quiet village but its location allows to make daily trips to all interesting to visit places in easter, wester and southern parts of peninsula.

The location was everything you see on the pictures. You get the sense of living in a museum only with al the modern facilities you want on a holiday. A few years ago the palazzo has been renovated and every little detail regarding decoration has been thought through. It's really a beautiful place. The host Salvatore is great. Very friendly and communicative. He provided an overview of all the interesting sites, beaches, restaurants etc. He went above and beyond being a host by inviting us to his olive oil factory and showing the production process. All and all, staying at the palazzo was a great experience because of the palazzo itself, but also because of the great host Salvatore. I would want to spend my holiday every year at the palazzo!

The accommodation exceeded our expectations. The rooms were very luxurious, spacious and very clean. The owner Salvatore was very helpful and went far and beyond to assist us with our trip. We were provided with ample tips, options and addresses of touristic spots and restaurants. He even made the reservations for us in the restaurants. All suggested restaurants were very nice with excellent food at very beautiful locations. We should also mention the lady serving the breakfast who was very attentive and friendly. Overall an excellent experience and a big thank you to Salvatore and his team for running such a beautiful Palazzo.

We were pleasantly welcomed by Salvatore, who was always ready to help us out with booking of a restaurant or providing excellent tips for beaches and even a well-organized boat trip. The breakfast was excellent and always home-made fresh. The accommodation was splendid (one minor comment: the water of the pool was not warmed and really cold) in an excellent setting. Salvatore always arranged breakfast outside in his lovely garden. Ensa, his help during breakfast was very friendly and gentle. We really loved or stay which made it a fantastic holiday in Puglia!

Salvatore was completely attentive and so helpful and friendly. We were made to feel very much at home. There were so many personal touches. We had delicious breakfasts, thank you Salvatore. Nothing was too much trouble. We learnt a lot of social history, and appreciated days gone by in such a household and also about the family history of wine making and olive oil production. The pool was a treat, an oasis of peace and calm. We will have lasting memories, and, I hope, the possibility of seeing you and your family in England one day. Thank you Salvatore. (Apologies again for the flood!)

This place is so lovely! The building, the rooms, the breakfast were marvelous and the host Salvatore made us feel very welcome and exceeded our expectations. On check-in Salvatore gave us a list of nearby beaches, restaurants and places of interest which was super helpful. He even gave us access to sunloungers and a parasol at a nearby fancy beach club for free! (which would have been 50 euros each for the day). He also recommended and booked a boat trip about an hour away from the hotel which he promised was beautiful and it was! Honestly the best boat trip I've ever been on. A luxurious small boat which only had 2 other couples on the trip (so we had plenty of space) and the opportunity to spend the afternoon sailing between rock faces, snorkeling, paddle boarding and exploring caves. It was bliss!

Historic and carefully renovated building in a quiet village. The wonderful recommendations from the owner were the highlights of our trip. Boat trip was unforgettable. Lovely breakfast. Small pool in shaded courtyard was perfect to recharge batteries in the middle of summer

Once you enter the palazzo, you are in very good hands and we felt welcome there! The rooms are really beautiful and one of the kind, also the entrance area and the pool. Salvatore gave us lots of recommendations, where to eat or what to visit, we appreciated it a lot and was much more easier to plan our stay. Tasty and fresh breakfast, good coffee. :) Everything was wonderful. Grazie allo staff 💚🤍❤️

Warm and friendly welcome. Salvatore (owner/manager) was extremely helpful and friendly, had good suggestions and assisted with bookings etc. Enza served a superb breakfast and kept topping up with coffee and fruits with a genuine smile and a chat. She was like a family member. This old building is impressive and Salvatore has done an incredible job doing it up and it is very stylishly decorated. Easy parking for rental car. Short drives to Gallipoli, beaches and neighbouring towns and villages, although not an awful lot happened in Alezio itself.
