Guest Reviews for Trullo la Specchia
Spectacular property! We stayed with our two adult daughters, sons in law and a toddler, and each family had their own space and bath for comfort and privacy. Don't let Google Maps take you in via the dirt road - there's a much better route from the SP. Very helpful property managers who responded quickly to all our questions, helped us set up dinner reservations and an olive oil tasting, and even found us a babysitter so we could go out for a late dinner at Masseria Frontoio. Weather wasn't quite warm enough to heat the pool to floating temperature, but we all enjoyed using the loungers and enjoying the Apulian sun.

Very pleasant villa. Beautiful outdoors with well maintained garden with the typical olive trees and well organized indoors. Perfect if you wish to have some autonomy for the guests as two of the rooms are detached from the main building. Areas of improvement: a shaded parking lot (today in full sun) and a shaded area by the pool. Overall we loved staying there and would go back.
