Il Trullo dell'Immacolata

I’m sure I’ll come back to this fantastic place. The sisters who run it welcomed us with so much kindness. Congratulations to them.

The nuns are so kind, and the food they cook is good. It’s a peaceful place to get some clean, fresh air, and it works well for children and older people. Groups can use it for conferences or spiritual retreats.

The terraces have wide views and enough room for large groups to meditate, and the nuns are open and welcoming. I’ve come here twice for meditation retreats with a Zen and Buddhist inspired group, including monks from the Plum Village tradition. The food is good, and I recommend the place for retreats.

It’s very quiet, so it’s a good place to relax. The rooms are airy, spacious, clean, and have air conditioning, though there’s no TV in them; there’s a lounge where you can watch instead. Breakfast is a tasty Italian spread. The property sits near the Fasano forest amid greenery and a lovely pine wood, with a beautiful view of the Fasano sea. The nuns are extraordinary, and the staff are very kind and helpful.
