Bastione San Giacomo

Excellent place for few days quiet retreat. Very friendly staff. Close to many small beautiful towns around, like Polignano a Mare. We had a lot of fun.

What a luxurious stay! The service and hospitality was 5 star, with consistent care, friendliness, and attention to detail by all staff during our stay. Very accommodating to our needs with baby, and exactly what we needed as nervous first time parents travelling as a family. Food was impeccable at their restaurant, we dined there about 8 times! They made lovely baby friendly food for our 11 month old as well. Location also great, an easy 20-30 minute drive to gorgeous towns nearby (Polignano, Alberobello, etc). The only area for improvement to me was the spa, as I found the body massage quite average - the masseuse was a little stand off-ish when I arrived 10 minutes late, and a little clumsy during the treatment (repeatedly knocking into the table when applying pressure, massaging the sides of my body when I mentioned it was ticklish and to avoid - silly i know but after having to repeat myself about 3 times I got annoyed -, she was perhaps new and a little ‘rough’ in her movements that I couldn’t fully relax). Anyway! Overall a fantastic trip & we would be returning to stay if we’re in Puglia again. Highly recommended

It was a lovely location. I would advise hiring a car for transport
