Jasmin Rahman, 7 September 13 "Our holiday was wonderfully relaxing." Daphne Braun, 29 May 12 "I must tell you what an exceptional time we had at! Specifically, the grounds are magnificent, with the gracious pool, comfortable chairs, impecable lighting [it is like a Hollywood movie at night], and native plants. We found the design of the house to be at once elegant and clever. A handy outside sink, an outside shower with warm water, and upper windows that could [without worry] be left open during the night, all contributed to the flow of the vacation... We ended up having the caretaker cook us a daily meal. I highly recommend everyone staying at the house do the same: even after living in Italy a year, our family agreed she made the best food. I could honestly say one should come to Puglia for her food alone!... will remain our first love in Puglia."
