Recent Reviews in Costa Merlata

Hotel Monte Sarago

10/10 Excellent

"Perfect hotel! (And I rarely say that) Free parking across the street is a bonus for when you’re out all day exploring or at the beach and just want to come back and relax and have dinner later. Walking distance to center of town. Exceptionally clean. Friendly and professional staff there to help you with all your needs including the reception, servers, spa attendants, and the maids. The spa was very reasonably priced and incredibly relaxing - try the “percorso” which is a little bit of everything. And last but not least the breakfast was abundant and even varied a little each day. Will return here next time I am in Puglia."

Ostuni a Mare

10/10 Excellent

"The property is very good with required amenities and services. Very helpful staff, well recommended. Management should consider improving air conditioning in the rooms.. highly recommended"

Palazzo Virgilio

10/10 Excellent

"Very central, very clean, I recommend"

Hotel Orientale

10/10 Excellent

"super helpful staff, comfortable bed lovely room"

Hotel Incanto

10/10 Excellent

"We have been coming to Hotel Incanto every year for 7 years and we love it, we returned last night after a fabulous week. The staff, view, pool make this hotel. Ariana, Graziano go above and beyond providing excellent service as-well as the whole team. Regards Antonio and Sally Greco room 504"

Park Hotel San Michele

10/10 Excellent

"We really enjoyed our stay at the Park Hotel San Michele. Our room was big, comfortable, and well-equipped, with plenty of space for our family of four. The beds were comfy for a great night's sleep, and we had everything we needed for a relaxing stay. The breakfast buffet was great too, with lots of variety to start the day. The outdoor pool was clean, well looked after, and a perfect spot to relax and cool off after spending the day exploring nearby Martina Franca. The location was excellent, just a short walk from the historic centre and very easy to get around on foot. The flat, well-kept paths made it simple to use a buggy or pushchair, which was a big plus for us as a family. Overall, we’d definitely recommend this hotel and would happily stay here again!"

Torre Cintola Greenblu Sea Emotions

10/10 Excellent

"Great experience. The manager was amazing she gave us free Buffett. She worked around our schedule. Was so help full all the staff. Beautiful Property and swimming pools. Thank you"

Granserena Hotel

8/10 Good

"The room was lovely and really well kept. Daily cleaning was excellent. The pools were lovely, the lifeguards were very whistle happy thought! The thing I really need to flag is the lower/upper inclusive plans. We were lower (although don't recall deciding this when booking) which meant we didn't get a reserved table for dinner. We were just sat outside in unreserved tables, which was ok when there was an available table for us... Sometimes there would be and if we were lucky it would be cleaned and if we were lucky broken glass would be cleaned up. When it came to meals, lower inclusive were basically not cared about."

VISTA Ostuni

10/10 Excellent

"Our stay at VISTA Ostuni was nothing short of exceptional. The staff made us feel genuinely welcomed from the moment we arrived, providing warm, attentive service that was flawless throughout our stay. The property itself is absolutely stunning—beautifully designed, impeccably maintained, and every detail reflects true luxury. The panoramic views of Ostuni and the surrounding countryside are breathtaking, especially at sunset. Every meal was a delight, from the incredible breakfast to the outstanding dining experiences. The quality of the food, the atmosphere, and the service exceeded all expectations. If you're looking for a luxurious, relaxing, and unforgettable stay in Puglia, VISTA Ostuni is simply outstanding. We can't wait to return!"
