Family-friendly hotel with plenty of outdoor activities
Plenty of spots for guests to enjoy the outdoors complement the property from the white canopied daybeds in the garden sun lounging area to the plastic lounge chairs lined up on the deck near the large pool complete with hot tub and waterfall. A children’s playground is on a grassy lawn with a tall wooden play set with two plastic slides, and an activities staff arranges games for children to play. The small outdoor bar has a huge area filled with floral cloth-covered tables and brown wicker chairs under covered seating. There’s a sand volleyball court at the hotel, and a large shuttle bus that takes guests to the private beach with rows of blue umbrellas every 30 minutes.
Location
Less than a five-minute shuttle ride from a private beach on Mediterranean Sea
The property is within a 10-minute drive of Otranto, and less than a five-minute ride via the free shuttle to the hotel’s private beach on the Mediterranean Sea. It is also a short drive from an 18-hole golf course. It is around a 45-minute drive to Lecce, and about an hour's drive to Gallipoli. During the busy season, travel times will be longer, as the road to the hotel can get very busy.
Rooms
Spacious rooms with small patios and minimal decor
Rooms are spacious and plain with tile floors and light-peach walls. Beds have blue bedding and large wooden headboards. Standard rooms have wooden closets, wall-mounted tube TVs, and minibars. Glass doors open out to small patio spaces with plastic chairs. The gray-and-white marble bathrooms have small stand-up showers.
Features
Activities staff, babysitting services, and excursions available
The animation staff organizes games for children and water aerobics for adults in the big outdoor swimming pool. The property also offers a sand volleyball court. For a fee, bicycle rental is available, and the hotel organizes several excursions to neighboring areas. The hotel has a bright, spacious restaurant and an outdoor bar near a small open-air theater. Babysitting services are provided for a fee, and parking is free.
