Pros:

Dia Anlage war nett, viele Pinienalleen, freilaufende Tiere wie Ziegen, Hühner, Gänse, Katzen.. ruhig.

Cons:

Das Einfahrts- Ausfahrtstor mit einer Klinge, kein Portier, ist immer geschlossen, ich wusste nicht gleich wie was funktioniert somit fühlt man sich nicht willkommen. Zimmerbetten zu hart, wenig Platz im Eingangsbereich, wenn 2 Kinderbetten dort stehen. Nur 1 Zimmerkarte. Essen war immer wieder OK jedoch nicht überragend, besonders gestört haben mich viele Mücken auf den Schokokuchen mit Früchten die nicht abgedeckt waren, man hat es aber nicht wirklich beachtet oder als tragisch empfunden.

Schönes Familienhotel mit guter Lage nahe Monopoli
Pros:

Wir hatten ein schönes Appartement in der Nähe vom Haupthaus. Es gibt viel Personal und alle sind sehr freundlich. Unsere Ankunft war durch eine Flugverspätung um 3 Stunden später mitten in der Nacht. Trotzdem wurden wir sehr freundlich begrüßt und jemand hat uns aufs Zimmer begleitet. Dort hat bereits frisches Obst auf uns gewartet. Ich möchte mich hier sehr herzlich für die Begrüßung in der Nacht bedanken.
Es gibt Tiere (Gänse, Pfaue, Ziegen, Katzen, Hühner), die frei herumlaufen und vom Personal gepflegt werden. Die gesamte Außenanlage und die Zimmer sind extrem sauber.
Der Strand ist klein und fein. Viel besser ist aber der Abschnitt "Piscine Romane".

An excellent place to stay in Puglia.
Pros:

The food was excellent (breakfast and dinner) - high variety and high quality. The location was nice, amidst abundant greenery, palms and pine trees. The staff was very nice - we arrived very late the first night and they packed up some cold cuts and bread so we can have dinner in the room. The room was spacious enough for the 4 of us and everything was functioning properly. The place was very quiet and very comfortable. We didn't use the beach (as we traveled in late October) but it's very close to Monopol, Ostuni and Polignano, so convenient as a base in Puglia. Would definitely recommend it!

Cons:

The approach to the parking - it was on the back side of the (rather large) resort, and the last 50m of the approach were full of potholes - it's a minor issue but it can be easily fixed. Also, the resort is large and relatively old so it shows on walls and doors/windows but it is very clean and well maintained.

War für eine Zwischenstation okay.
Pros:

Das Frühstück war reichhaltig. Die Anlage ist gepflegt. Man wird mit einem Golfcar und seinem Gepäck bis vor den "Bungalow" gefahren.

Cons:

Das Badezimmer hat einen komischen Geruch verströmt. Beim Frühstück gab es für die Getränkeautomaten lediglich Pappbecher. Ganz rollstuhlgerecht - wie beschrieben - sind die Wohneinheiten nicht, wir hatten 2 Stufen, um in den Bungalow zu gelangen. Für uns entspricht die Anlage keinem 4 Sterne Hotel.

Struttura non adatta per soggiorno di business, buona per vacanza e famiglie
Cons:

Parcheggio a distanza siderale dalla struttura , strada di accesso al parcheggio in pessime condizioni, cartelli indicanti la Hall non visibili al buio , dal parcheggio alla camera bagagli (anche pesanti) trasportati a mano, non riesco ad immaginare come raggiungere il parcheggio o viceversa in caso di pioggia o maltempo in generale, c'è anche il rischio concreto di alloggiare in camere fuori dal corpo centrale

Pros:

Habitación amplia, pero distante del parking, por lo que tuvimos que depender del vehículo eléctrico del hotel para transportar nuestro equipaje.

Cons:

Hotel cercano a la costa pero sin vistas. Cena buffet con pocas opciones, especialmente en los platos calientes y para quienes tienen problemas digestivos.

Pros:

La taille de la chambre

Cons:

L'emplacement de l'hôtel, rien autour à faire sans voiture. Accès à la plage fermé. Propreté à revoir dans la chambre, matériel de douche mal accroché, moisi,....
Personnel pas très agréable.
Bref c'est loin d'être un 4 étoiles et le prix bien trop cher, nous sommes actuellement dans un 3 étoiles à 40 km et c'est beaucoup plus confortable et le personnel avenant pour 2 fois moins cher.

Pros:

Preis-Leistung war in der Nebensaison ok

Cons:

Das Frühstücksbuffet war gross, aber die Qualität nicht überzeugend. Generell wären div. Erneuerungen nötig und das Flair fehlt.

Dissapointing stay at outdated property
Pros:

Not much actually. There was a playground and football field on the property, so that was good for kids. There was proper coffee for breakfast

Cons:

The hotel is not a 4 start hotel! The property, the rooms, the breakfast area was very outdated. The room we got first was not the room we booked. We finally got to change to a different room a day after, but the room was not much better. The smell of sewage from the bathroom was incredibly strong, every handle in the bathroom was broken, the shower handle was broken off. Mold was in several places in the shower. We had booked room for 4 people (2 kids and 2 adults) yet only got 3 towels every day, despite asking at reception for another one. Same goes for a fixed bed. The room don't have cups, glasses, tea pot of a coffee machine, nothing that a normal 4 star hotel would be expected to have. There were only two beds fixed with bed sheets, not three as requested. We had breakfast included, and it was very poor quality: overcooked or tasteless eggs and bacon. There was no porridge for kids, the one yogurt from machine had strange flavor. The power went out three times while we were in the hotel and with electric keys to rooms we couldn't access the rooms. The pool was freezing cold, not possible for kids to swim. A lost of places on the property were closed (either due to end of season or generally because only parts of property are running). The hotel had a high standart probably over 20-30 years ago or more, but so little has been done for maintaining it, that it all was outdated, broken or not working. The hotel has a lot of 'services' to gain the 4 stars, but an old golf cart that drives your luggage to your room on the other side of the property doesn't make it to be a 4 star hotel. No connection with the city nearby. Taxi is extremely expensive. Only 2-3 restaurants open in the area for lunch and dinner for end of season at the beginning of October.
I would not recommend the hotel, especially with kids.

Pros:

Un séjour agréable, malgré quelques points à améliorer

Dans l’ensemble, notre séjour s’est bien passé et le personnel était sympathique et accueillant.

Cependant, nous avons rencontré deux petits désagréments. Tout d’abord, notre chambre étant située à l’arrière de l’établissement, nous avons été gênés par des bruits assez importants durant la nuit, probablement liés à des machines situées sous l’hôtel. Ces nuisances sonores ont perturbé notre tranquillité et rendu nos nuits moins reposantes.

Par ailleurs, à notre arrivée dans la chambre, nous avons remarqué une odeur désagréable provenant de la douche, ce qui n’était pas très agréable.

C’est dommage, car ces deux points ont un peu affecté notre confort pendant le séjour. Malgré cela, nous avons apprécié la gentillesse du personnel. Nous espérons que ces petits désagréments pourront être améliorés afin de rendre l’expérience encore plus agréable pour les futurs voyageurs.

Mooi complex maar de locatie en parkeren niet handig
Pros:

Wij kregen een zeer mooie en grote kamer op de begane grond maar het was wel rustig ondanks dat het erg druk was op het hotel. De zwembaden zijn erg mooi en schoon met genoeg ligbedden al moeten ze beter aangeven waar die staan want ze waren eerst moeilijk te vinden. Het ontbijt is ook erg goed met alles (zoet en hartig), brood, verschillende eieren, zoetigheid, vleeswaren, fruit en de koffie wordt op dat moment voor je gemaakt. Het restaurant lijkt echter wel een kantine o groot en ongezellig ingericht en veel tafels stonden gereserveerd voor gasten op naam maar het was altijd wel een plekje. Wij kregen een SPA sessie van het hotel en dat beviel prima. Mooi bad met stoomcabine en sauna en ligbedden. Het is in het algemeen een mooie locatie omringd door bomen. In de buurt een paar leuke en lekkere restaurants met uitzicht op zee.

Cons:

Als je aankomt met je auto (overigens een must daar) gaat de deur niet open en het staat een QR code met de aanwijzingen naar de P (Uhmm ???). Je moet dus terug en je rijdt via omgangbare en met vol gaten wegen en zonder geen enkele aanwijzing of borden dan je Google maps naar een locatie waar je de auto dus blijkbaar moet parkeren. Je rijdt daadwerkelijk 5/6 minuten om je auto te parkeren en vervolgens weet je niet waar het hotel staat. Er loopt ook vrijwel niemand en het terrein is leeg en gesloten maar gelukkig wel een person die zei dat de auto idd daar moest blijven en lopen naar beneden naar het hotel. Ik heb het gemeten en er zijn 350 meter naar de receptie. Wij kunnen goed lopen maar oudere mensen of met kinderen en de koffers is dit niet fraai en helemaal als het regent of zo. Dat staat echter niet op de omschrijving van het hotel. En toen wij terug waren de volgende ochtend er lagen druppels lijm op de auto ook nog! Iemand vindt het blijkbaar niet fijn dat de autos daar staan? De locatie is verder mooi maar wel ver van Monopoli stadje en zeker als je in de avond met de je auto terug moet komen langs overigens ook onverlichte paden naar het parkeerterrein. Alleen hierdoor zou ik het niet aanraden en niet terug komen.
