Absolutely stunning surrounded by olive groves and vineyards. You can wonder around the kitchen gardens and see the fig trees, pomegranates, tomatoes, apples and melons (my husband may have stolen a few for snacking on!). The rooms are elegant, luxurious and comfortable. The pool is delightful with a pool bar open all day for snacks and drinks. The staff were extremely friendly, hospitable and accommodating. I would recommend to anyone looking for somewhere special and definitely plan on returning in the future.

Nobody assisted transferring our luggage to the room but a very large group arrived at the same time as up which may have been distracting.

We had an absolutely wonderful 2-night stay at Ottolire. From the moment we arrived, we felt a warm, welcoming atmosphere that made us feel at home. The property is incredibly cozy, immaculately clean, and surrounded by beautiful greenery that brings a refreshing calm. The food was a highlight—delicious, fresh, and thoughtfully prepared, often using ingredients from their own garden. We especially appreciated the focus on local flavors, which added an authentic touch to each meal. The mini spa was a perfect retreat, offering relaxation after days of exploring the nearby areas. Overall, Ottolire is a hidden gem that combines comfort, nature, and exceptional hospitality. Highly recommended for anyone looking to enjoy a peaceful stay in the Bari region. We can't wait to return!

This is a 5 star resort with an incredible property that is well-maintained and very peaceful. Thank you to all the staff, especially Antonella, the reception desk, and the spa staff (Maria and Chiara). One of the best spas experiences we've ever had. The restaurant was delicious as was breakfast.

Nothing. It was perfect. Only regret is not being able to stay longer.

Beautiful resort in stunning scenery. Very peaceful & quiet. Lovely pool area. Staff were very helpful and couldn’t do enough for us. Our room was a Trulli with an outdoor spa bath and was absolutely stunning, I would recommend this room. Comfortable bed and spotlessly clean.

We were there a week we would maybe of liked a change in the menu at some point.

Spectacular venue, great service with lovely staff, who could not have been more helpful or friendly! The restaurant was lovely and poolside food and service were good too. I would absolutely recommend this hotel and if in the area I would go back in a heartbeat.

The pool was slightly cold, however it was the end of the season. The setting was so beautiful that the colder water didn't put us off.

Beautiful serene place immersed in nature. Amazing breakfast and dinner experience. Wish we did stay longer, would have loved to try the cooking class or sunrise yoga in the forest!

The air con in the room was very noisy even at the slowest speed and didn’t have any sleep mode. Check in at 4pm is quite late. Would be great to have it at least at 3pm which is the usual time pretty much everywhere.

Ottolire was a beautifully presented property. Whilst out of town a little bit, the location of Ottolire added to the experience and charm of this accommodation. Beautiful pool, surroundings and stunning food. Would highly recommend staying at Ottolire.

If looking for a hotel close to the old town then perhaps this property is not for you. We were very happy to be out of town to experience the quiet, peace and serenity of this wonderful property.

The breakfast was excellent! We loved the buffet and the fact that we could also order delicious eggs, etc off the menu! The beautiful smell of flowers everywhere, comfortable beds and immaculate grounds were an absolute pleasure! The staff were all very helpful and wonderful!

I really can not think of anything other than I wish we could have stayed another day :)

Everything. I was there a couple years ago almost accidentally and fell in love with the place, promising myself I would come back. Traditional and modern country design merge with exquisite taste. Food in its simplicity is oustanding, staff over the top. It's the perfect place to slow down and unwind, surrounded by the peace and the beauty of the countryside.

Nothing

Every member of the staff was very accommodating. The property itself is a 10. The hoiday picnic on property was a highlight of our stay. Food was excellant

The gym facility was very small and poorly equipped. Service at the pool bar closed way too early.
