Wonderful stay at Masseria Fontanelle, the facilities, staff, and food were perfect. The views and flowers were magical. The easy access (10min bike ride) to the sandy beach was great too. Highly recommend.

We had an absolutely wonderful stay and couldn’t have been happier with our experience. From the moment we arrived until the day we checked out, the staff’s hospitality and attention to detail made our visit truly memorable. The staff is what makes Fontanelle truly special. From being greeted by Alessandro in the parking lot, to Gemme and Sara at the front desk and nightly cocktails at the bar with Beatrice and the rest of the staff, is what made our stay truly exceptional. Not to mention the incredible beach just a short shuttle ride away. While at the beach, Simone will attend to your every need. And when you begin to get hungry, you must have lunch at the restaurant located in the Fontanelle section of the beach. The food was fantastic, as was Luca the manager, and our waiter, who introduced himself as Terrible. Fortunately, he did not live up to his name. I highly recommend a stay at Masseria Fontanelle, you will not be disappointed.

Es ist schon ein Stück vom Strand entfernt. Man wird mit dem shuttlebus zum Campingplatz gefahren und von dort geht man noch Mal so 10 Minuten bis zum Strand. Das Personal ist freundlich und eine Servicekraft spricht auch Deutsch. Die Zimmer mit Blick aufs Meer das weit weg ist (aber sichtbar) sind klein, aber ausreichend. Das Essen war sehr gut, wiederholt sich aber. Frühstück gute Auswahl, frischer O- Saft, Eier auf Wunsch.

Wir wurden sehr freundlich mit einem Glas Prosecco empfangen und durften unser Zimmer früher beziehen. Personal war stets sehr freundlich und gut gelaunt. Die Bar war bis spät Abend geöffnet und konnten die gute italienische Weine auf der schöne Terasse genießen. Ebenfalls am Pool tagsüber. Wir haben täglich die Fahrräder zum Strand genutzt was sehr vorteilhaft war. Strandbereich mit den kostenlosen Liegen war sehr schön und das Meer wunderbar. Wir danken herzlich für den tollen Aufenthalt!

Bel posto ma gestione pessima della spiaggia

Splendida location ma la gestione della spiaggia e' pessima. Primo non e' spiaggia privata ma pubblica con diritto di ombrellone. Tutti possono accedere basta pagare. Secondo la spiaggia non esiste piu' il mare se le mangiata; le foto del sito sono vecchie e bugiarde. Non avrei prenotato se il sito di prenotazione fosse stato aggiornato.
