Nothing to report

Peaceful, classy and a splendid place to recharge. Really nice food in a very special environment. Perfect for one or two nights.

A tranquil and thoughtful facility. Design and landscaping inspired. Spa and pool area was hard to leave. The central location made it easy to explore Taranto and surrounding areas of interest. Highly recommended.

To be honest, we expected a lot more regarding the food. The breakfast selection is very poor and some variety would be nice. The food at the pool/ lunch was also not very delicious and you would expect some more effort from a 5 start hotel. The fries we ordered were just tasteless and soggy and the sandwich we ordered was very bad. Unfortunately, my husband and I left more than half of it, because it was not enjoyable at all. The only delicious thing would have been the pizza we had on pizza night. The pizza was very delicious.

The location and the ambience of the hotel is very beautiful and calm. The rooms are very big, clean and the isolated very well. There were weddings at the time we stayed and we didn’t hear anything in the room. Also the pool area was very relaxing and you can always find a sunbed. The staff was also very friendly and helpful.

Tiny things..... No Fresh orange juice at Breakfast Food menu by the pool a bit limited for us as vegetarians. No hotel bar for a drink in the evenings if you didn't want to venture in to Taranto or have a dinner at the hotel. Gym equipment a little dated.

Our room was huge and had a vaulted ceiling. Everything was clean & immaculate. The pool area was lovely & there were day beds which were great for a bit of shade. It was really peaceful and great for re energising. Breakfast was good Spa facilities. The animals - nesting Swallows, gecko's, cats etc If you venture to Taranto we recommend Barone

Splendid property, everything was excellent and excedeed our expectations. Special mention to the restaurant and the staff there, they are amazing! Also, while accomodation is on the very expensive side, the prices at the restaurant and bar were very reasonable and excellent for the quality and service

Just a shame the meat was overdone on the evening meal and my girlfriends fish was too. But they didn’t charge us for the meat.

How clean the property was, how welcoming the staff were, the layout, our room, the gym, the pools, the scenery, the peacefulness, FLIPPING EVERYTHING!!!!!

a very special hotel. beautifuly decorated and styled. we also had spa treatment, very enjoying. we stayed in a 30m room. the hotel is 10 minutes drive from the city. There are also bicycles for the hotel’s guests to cycle in the area. very generous breakfast. for us The best in Italy so far.

A bit soulless the rooms. Lighting lack of carpeting made it feel cold. The pillows were not great.

Beautiful surroundings. The staff were helpful and flexible with the gym opening though 10am is quite late to open. But it was appreciated. Breakfast, the omelette I ordered was exceptional

Lovely pool and spa, comfortable room, good bathroom. Excellent breakfasts and delicious dinners. Taranto itself, a few miles distant, although a city full of interest in a lovely position on the sea, with a great museum and cathedral, is an industrial and naval centre and not primarily geared to cater for tourists.

Reception staff and breakfast could be more welcoming

Beautiful hotel. Lovely rooms and grounds.

Service and some basic amenities were left wanting. The room was very hot in September and we asked the air conditioning to be checked, which did not happen. I had to seek someone out several times at the pool to get towels. We had no kettle for tea. And some of the service was surly, which you don’t expect at a high end price point.

Very beautiful, historic location. The food and wine at the restaurant is fantastic and the service there great.

Unfortunately we were very disappointed with the overall service and vibe. There were very little guests staying; it was a ghost town during the day. Despite this, it took 50+ minutes to serve us lunch each day, even with being the only people to order food. We tried to get the waiters attention each time but they rush past ( despite having very little or no guests). This didn’t even give us an opportunity to discuss the poor service. They moved us into the restaurant due to rain one day and forgot to turn on the lights in there for 30 minutes 😅. I felt they had much younger day staff in attendance and they were more preoccupied with cleaning or doing tasks, than serving guests. The only good experience we received was when we ate in the restaurant one night. The service was superb. Booking.com does not make it clear that the spa is an additional charge. 95€ to sit in an array of pools is London prices so I was very shocked to find out the price, whilst already paying alot for the hotel room per night. This poor advertising is not the hotels fault but it started us off on a bad footing which unfortunately got worse. I would avoid this hotel. There is not much else to do in the area so if you’re not enjoying the hotel, there is nowhere to go…

Rooms and the decor of the hotel was beautiful!

The location, the road is awful and damaged our car. The breakfast was very mediocre and often everything was missing. The range and variety and service for the breakfast has to be better for the price and the overall hotel.

The rooms are clean and comfortable.

Staff could be friendlier and more detailed. They didn’t present the hotel to us and rushed us to the room. They were also annoyed to have to remove all items from car. Feels like an abandoned property without proper management. Spa was okay. Breakfast wasn’t great and not so fresh. The restaurant for dinner was also so so. Its missing a touch of love and care and that is transferred to the guests.

Big, beautiful with a lot of potential
