Seaside living is the name of the game, with a private beach area ready for sun and salt air (extra charges apply). The outdoor pool is a refreshing option, and during the season an adults-only infinity pool with a shallow end provides a serene horizon. A dedicated kids’ pool keeps younger guests smiling, while a sun deck and terrace offer plenty of sunny spots to soak up the view.

Dining and evenings bring Italian flavor to the forefront. Cristalda, the on-site restaurant, serves traditional Italian fare, and a bar provides drinks to pair with the sea breeze. Free live music performances add a touch of likeable nightlife on select nights. Families will appreciate kid-friendly dining options, including a kid-friendly buffet and kids’ meals, plus a playground on site.

Practical conveniences help travelers stay on track, with a free shuttle service making town and beach trips easy and free meeting/banquet facilities for events. A 24-hour front desk handles arrivals and departures, with room service and air conditioning for comfort. An elevator provides easy access, and payment options include cash and major cards (Mastercard, American Express, Visa, Diners Club, CartaSi).

The hotel provides a satisfactory stay with several positive points to note. Its location is quite convenient, close to the city center but not in the heart of the hustle and bustle, which some may appreciate (15-20 min walk). Right in front of the hotel is a large paid parking area, a practical amenity for those traveling by car. The cleanliness of the hotel is satisfactory, with well-maintained rooms and public areas. The comfort level is standard, with no outstanding features but providing what you'd expect for a restful night's sleep. Although it's not without minor flaws, the hotel's location, cleanliness, and general comfort contribute to its value.

The team at the hotel presents a unique dichotomy. Many members are warm and engaging, offering smiles that truly make you feel welcome. Conversely, there are those who appear less authentic, offering what could best be described as forced smiles and emitting an unsettling vibe, occasionally even showing an unwarranted air of superiority. A small area of improvement would be the respect for guest privacy. Instances have occurred where the housekeeping staff has overlooked the 'do not disturb' sign. While it's appreciable that they are diligent in their duties, respecting the sign would further enhance the guest experience.

The location is excellent, near to the city centar, the marina and the beach. We landed to Bari airport and the place where the airshuttle bus left us was almost in front of the hotel which is more that good if you are travelling without car. The stuff was very kind, the food was excellent. Rooms have been very clean. Absolutelly recommended.

Comfy beds, nice pool, sea view lovely, easy parking, good lifts, and special mention of Daniel on reception who was extra welcoming , really friendly and helpful with planning.

Breakfast was just ok especially the poorly kept "hot" food (usually cold!) and dining room staff who didnt engage at all and werent attentive.

It was only a very short walk from the hotel across the car park to the beach. We didn't have a sea view but we had a lovely view of the swimming pool. The breakfast was also good.

I think the bar area needs a bit of attention,like more tables and chairs and top make it feel more like a bar instead of a waiting room.

Big room. Very clean. Good location in relation to the city centre. Excellent location in relation to the beach. Very friendly and helpful staff. A special mention for Francesca at the reception.

For the size of the bathroom, that was quite big, the shower was very small. The breakfast in the second week was not very organised. The staff ( friendly and helpful) were more worried about organising the room for lunch than replenishing what was missing .

An excellent location at the North end of town. Has direct access to the beach through the car park and has a huge pool. The staff were friendly and helpful. Wide range of breakfast and you get to keep the same breakfast table for the length of the stay.

Will need to walk 200 or so metres for restaurants nearby.

Great location for bus station, beach and harbour. Very comfortable and spotlessly clean. Lovely pool. Perfect, generous breakfast. We really appreciated being able to check in early, so thank you for that.

Very clean, friendly staff, good breakfast. Very near beach and close to the town

Was all good; rooms have no soundproofing at all, could be challenging in high season

Lovely hotel in ideal position only some minutes walk from the beach. There was a supermarket and some cafes/restaurants nearby too. The beach was ideal for kids. The whole hotel was really clean and we enjoyed spending time at the beautiful pool. Breakfast and dinner was delicious and staff really friendly.

The rooms are isolated poorly - we had quiet neighbors and the hotel was not fully booked but I could imagine that it might be really annoying in high season
