Je tenais à faire un commentaire concernant une réservation en juin à Fontana vecchia -Castellana Grotte. Tout d'abord pour rappel, le site se trouve en pleine campagne et n'est pas du tout indiqué pour un GPS, ce qui m'a fait tourné dans tout les sens durant 1 heure! Enfin en arrivant sur place, je n'était pas attendu, j'ai dû téléphoner et attendre 1 heure l'arrivée des proprios! Enfin à ma grande surprise, lorsqu'on m'a proposé le logement, j'ai constaté que ce n'était pas un Trulli, mais "une simple chambre exiguë d'environ 9 m2, sans fenêtre", ce n'était pas un Trulli! Il semble que je n'aurai pas réserver de Trulli! En fait les proprios ont introduits des chambres simples et amenés la confusion entre "chambre" et "appartement", l'appartement est un Trulli! C'est pour rire, le client ne peut faire la différence! Loin de ce que l'on peut lire sur leur site, les photos sont belles, mais la réalité est tout autre! Enfin après une heure de discutions sous la chaleur, de politesses irrespectueuses, les valises qui chauffaient dans la voiture, et de longs débats par téléphone, j'ai décidé faute de recevoir un TRULLI, de quitter cet endroit sans avoir satisfaction ni remboursement!

Paradise in Puglia
Stayed 3 nights in July, 2018 in one of their Truli rooms. Family run B&B where you are welcomed as a friend. Set in an orchard of olive and fruit trees you feel you are in an exlusive, private farm. Breakfast was served on the back terrace and changed every morning with different pastries, cheese, jams, eggs, etc. Having the large pool was a bonus after touring the area and then cooling off and relaxing poolside. Location is perfect as Alberobello, Castellane Grotte and Putignano easily within a 15 minute drive. Adriatic beaches near Monopoli only a 25 minute drive. My wife and I truly enjoyed our stay at Fontana Vecchia and recommend staying here.
