Agriturismo Il Sorriso Degli Ulivi

Everything here feels made with care. The family running the place was incredibly kind and gave us such a warm welcome. We liked it so much that they let us spontaneously add another night. Both breakfast and dinner were fresh and homemade. Thanks for a wonderful stay, we'd really recommend it :-)

The restaurant is really good, and the young woman there was amazing. She speaks English and helped us a lot. I'd definitely recommend eating there. But I wouldn't stay at the agriturismo. We paid 160 euro per night and left disappointed, especially with the room and breakfast. We visited in August, and the reviews had raised my expectations. The room was clean, but much too basic for that price and felt cheap. The shower had broken parts and nowhere to put shampoo, so I had to leave it on the floor. Breakfast was freshly made as other reviews said, but there wasn't much of it and it was mostly cakes. I like traditional food and don't need a big American breakfast, but some fresh fruit, healthier choices, and more variety would have helped. We had to leave at 7 on our last morning. I asked if we could have something to eat, but got a blunt “no.” For 160 euro, I expected better service and at least a small bite to take along. We also asked for a recommendation for a small, less crowded beach. She booked us at one of the most crowded and overpriced beaches I've been to in Italy. We didn't dare ask for more suggestions, and found much nicer, quieter beaches ourselves. There wasn't a swimming pool at the agriturismo. That's fine, but for 160 euro a night I'm sure we could have found somewhere better with a pool, which would be nice in 35 degrees. The service overall wasn't good, apart from the restaurant.

A truly local Puglian food experience at this authentic Agriturismo south of Gallipoli. It was affordable and really tasty, the best food I've had this past week. The pastas were especially amazing.

A lovely, romantic place. The rooms were clean, the staff very friendly, and breakfast was perfect.
