4-Star Hotels in Ostuni

Today is the Italian ferragosto on August 15th. I looked at the thousands of photos taken during the two months of my sister and me traveling in Italy this summer, and recalled some of the beauty of the trip. This time we went to more than 20 cities, villages and towns from north to south and then from south to north, and stayed in many different styles of hotels, palaces, and homestays. Among them, the Palazzo Stunis that lives in Ostuni Puglia is particularly memorable. It has been half a month since I returned to Shanghai. Every morning when I drink coffee at home, I always think of the Palazzo Stunis I lived in. Its special charm is the warm and familiar intimacy when I enter the door. After chatting with the owner, I learned that the house is a family business he inherited from his grandfather. Everything from the color of the wall, the hand-painted pattern on the ceiling, the mosaic of the floor marble, the furniture, the tableware to the bathroom shower equipment, the towels for the guests, everything is spotless and elegant. The readily available antique furnishings are polished and polished, exuding extravagance but no ostentation, and naturally set off the historical sense of the ancestral real estate without revealing any old and pedantic atmosphere. The host, Matteo, is very sincere and polite. We are moved every morning by the hearty breakfast he carefully prepared. The table is covered with starched white drawnwork tablecloths and elegant silver-rimmed plates are placed on the table. With silver tableware and neatly folded white cloth embroidered with small flowers. He brought out the cappuccino while chatting softly, introducing us to the places to go every day and the restaurants he likes to go to, and then he helped us contact the car and the driver. During the few days spent here, the beauty of every day starts with his breakfast... Until the day of departure, Matteo helped us carry our heavy luggage and drove us into the car. Next time I go back to Ostuni, I will definitely live with him again. Today, I wrote a review on TripAdvisor, which is a small reward for the host’s hospitality.

What a truly amazing stay a Masseria Della Piana! I can’t put into words what a special experience it was to stay at this beautiful Masseria!! Staff - the staff would go above and beyond for you, there was nothing they wouldn’t do for you. All incredibly friendly, warm and welcoming, with even the owner bringing us a traditional Puglian breakfast one morning! Every single staff member we interacted with was so kind and welcoming, special shout out to Seydou and Andre (we didn’t get everyone’s name, but I would be calling them out if we had!) and to all the cute doggos and kitties on site!! The grounds/rooms - a truly truly beautiful location. The main pool is a great size, the area in general is very peaceful and tranquil, makes for a perfect pool day! The rooms are quant and perfect for what we needed, more than enough space for three girls with lots of clothes, bags, shoes and make up! They were kept very clean by the staff, good aircon, refilled water in the fridge. Our room even had a private plunge pool which was very cute and perfect for a slow morning. Food - the breakfast selection is great, with homemade focaccia, croissants, cakes, as well as the usual things (bread, cereal etc). The Masseria also hosted a cooking class/dinner on our last night, almost all of the guests attended and we sat at a long table together, there was pizza, calzones and lots of wine! This was a very special experience and so glad we did it. If you want an intimate family run experience in the beautiful Italian countryside, this really is the place for you. I honestly cannot believe anyone would give this place anything but a 5, I would give it a 10 if I could! Thank you Masseria Della Piana for making our holiday so special ❤️
