Amazing stay at Trullo Michele. Hosts and management provided the best service and were very attentive. The property has everything you need for a family stay and has a great location for exploring the south of puglia. We had the best stay and would love to return!

Puglia does have a special kind of magic and we are always thrilled when guests feel at home not only in the trullo but also love the area and all it has to offer,
You were an absolute pleasure to host and would love to see you back at Trullo Michele anytime.
Thank you so much for your lovely review!
It was a real privilege to stay at Trullo Michele. The villa is full of character and the pool and garden a real delight. The area has so many surprising and beautiful places to visit. Ian and Lucy were brilliant and helped made our stay so enjoyable.
We had a very special wedding anniversary in a very beautiful setting. Thank you Martin and Wendy for sharing your magical place and thank you Ian and Lucy for your help, guidance and efficiency.
We thoroughly enjoyed our relaxing stay in this pretty trullo surrounded by olive groves. We were able to visit beautiful Ostuni and the lovely coastline. The property manager on site could not have been more helpful. I would say the area is very quiet (& peaceful) which was great for us and there are some excellent restaurants within easy reach which the property manager was able to advise on. It was exciting to stay in a real Trullo!
Trullo superbement rénové, très agréable et calme, Maria est d’une gentillesse incroyable, d’excellent conseils et très réactive en cas de besoin.Nous arrivions tard elle avait même prévu quelques courses pour le dîner et le petit déjeuner.Grande piscine, beaux espaces, trullo très bien équipé, literie très confortable.Nous avons passé un très bon séjour.
Een fijne, zonnige en rustige week gehad in Trullo Michele. Plus punten - zwembad - rustig gelegen - airco in alle kamers. Aandachtspunten: Bij aankomst zorg dat alles netjes is / pannen - borden - lades - bestek schoon is.- Tuin gras gemaaid - een paar fijne tuinstoelen / zithoek. Wifi goed functioneert, want je hebt geen ontvangst op je eigen netwerk (3g/4g/5g)
Nous avons passé un excellent séjour au calme, au milieu des oliviers, mais non loin des beaux villages des Pouilles et du bord de mer …
L’endroit est magique : la chambre « trullo » est charmante et la piscine a été très appréciée par les fortes chaleurs que nous avons eues !
Un énorme merci à Lucy et son mari Ian pour leurs conseils et leur disponibilité !

Thank you Virginie for your lovely review. We are so pleased you were captivated by the ancient olives and the Trullo experience, it’s a beautiful laid back way to spend a holiday. We agree our hosts Ian and Lucy do a great job and we will always try and accommodate extra requests if possible. We hope to see you back again soon Martin and Wendy
Wir haben uns in dem Ferienhaus sehr wohl gefühlt.
Die Betreuung vor Ort durch Ian und Lucy war hervorragend.
Beide sind sehr nett und kümmern sich um alle Belange.
Ein toller Ort für alle die die Ruhe suchen und mal richtig entspannen wollen.
Sehr schöner und gepflegter Trullo inmitten von Olivenbäumen, perfekt zum Relaxen für 2-4 Personen. Die Ausstattung lies keine Wünsche offen und hat besonders meinen “Grill Master“ gefreut (Zitat: “Allein für die Fisch-Zange gibt’s schon 5 Sterne!“).
Ian & Liz waren jederzeit ansprechbar und haben bei aufkommenden Problemen (z.B. Mietwagenfirma oder Wasserversorgung) umgehend unterstützt und Abhilfe geschaffen/organisiert. Auch für Restaurant- und Ausflugstipps standen sie mit Ihrer Ortskenntnis und Erfahrung gerne zur Verfügung. Vielen Dank noch einmal für eure Unterstützung und Geduld. Hierfür gibt es eigentlich nicht genug Bewertungs-Sterne!
Wir können den Trullo auf jeden Fall weiterempfehlen und kommen gerne wieder.

Very beautiful and well-kept Trullo surrounded by olive trees, perfect for relaxing for 2-4 people. The equipment left nothing to be desired and especially pleased my "grill master" (quote: "The fish tongs alone get 5 stars!").
Ian & Liz were always approachable and immediately helped with any problems that arose (e.g. car rental company or water supply) and provided/organised remedies. They were also available for restaurant and excursion tips with their local knowledge and experience. Thank you again for your support and patience. There are actually not enough rating stars for that!
We can definitely recommend the Trullo and will be happy to come back.
Traditional trullo, in the campagna , central for sightseeing some of the beautiful inland towns and the coastline.
Car is essential
Any problems with the property were speedily dealt with by the landlords dependable caretaker.
Stupendo trullo immerso in un uliveto. Tranquillità e riservatezza ma dotato di tutti i comfort. Vicino al mare e a diversi paesi del Salento. Da raccomandare.
We had a great week at this wonderful Trullo. The house is exactly as described at the HomeAway site. Contacts with the owner and Terry (the local contact) were very good and helpful, also the instructions on how to get to the trullo from the airport were very detailed and clear. The guide as provided has some very useful tips. The house itself was very clean and equipped with anything you need. The BBQ outside and the swimming pool are fabulous. Only piece of advice for guests: be prepared for mosquitoes outside! All in all a highly recommended trullo in a lovely part of Puglia, with some wonderful towns and beaches in the surrounding areas.

Beautiful secluded Trullo
We have just had an amazing week at Trullo Michele which is just as lovely as shown in the photos. It was beautifully decorated, very clean and with everything you could need for a perfect stay. The bedroom in the Trullo is especially magical and the second bedroom, which is not shown, is beautiful also. Beds were very comfortable and the air con was a bonus as it was so hot while we were there. The new pool was divine and we especially liked the seating feature which allowed you to cool off without needing to be fully in the pool. The Trullo is in its own beautiful and secluded grounds but still within easy reach of all the wonderful places Puglia has to offer, in particular Alberobello, Ostuni and Lecce. A car is necessary. Filomena the caretaker is lovely and is available at all times should you need to contact her. We would definitely stay here again when we return to wonderful Puglia.

1st time but not last time in puglia
Loved it, the perfect place to relax and have a proper holiday( r and r).
We've been to Italy many times but can honestly say puglia is now our favourite part.
Short stay but totally relaxing.
Stayed here after a rec from s friend and couldn't fault it.

Beautiful property, unpleasant experience.
As depicted in the pictures this property is beautiful both inside and out, it would have been everything we had hoped for had it not been for an issue with millipedes. We had a two week stay booked to relax and explore this unique area however on the first morning we woke to several large millipedes in the Trullo, this continued throughout our stay with only a 2 or 3 day reprieve. The property manager brought over bug spray which did not work, however it was my husbands diligence in removing them each morning in addition to blocking any possible entrance into the Trullo that dissuaded us from abandoning the property. Since the property is beautifully situated in acres of olive groves it is expected that there will be insects native to the area in the surrounding garden however not expected in the house. I called the owner advising of the issue and asked for his help and suggested that for future clients he should consider a regular pest control service for the property. His response was that he had not had the same issue and that I could vacuum them up. We did not consider that a solution and were disappointed in his response. What should have been a wonderful two weeks at this property was spoiled by this experience. We hesitated to give a negative review however we want the owner to address the issue so that future clients do not have the same experience. We have rented many properties throughout North America, Asia and Europe, this is our first unpleasant experience.

We have taken our time to respond to your review as we wanted to visit the property and speak to our caretaker first hand.
Thank you for your feedback, we are pleased to hear our beautiful property & the stunning area lived up to expectations.
I am sorry you didn't feel we took your problems seriously but I can assure you we did everything possible to make your stay a pleasant one, we were personally in contact with you virtually everyday via phone, text & email. Having spoken to my caretaker she assures me that she did everything she could, visiting you nearly every day to see you were ok and even driving you to & from the pharmacy on several occasion for other unconnected issues.
This problem has not been an issue before and looking at our other reviews hasn't been a problem since. We have just spent a lovely week out at the property without any problems, perhaps a rural location isn't for everyone.
Once again we apologise if you don't think we did enough to help you. Since returning we have attempted to contact you further by email but without any reply.
Hopefully your experience hasn't put you of southern Italy and the Puglia region which I hope you come back to in the near future.

A stunning property in a beautiful setting!
Wendy and Martin are the absolute hosts. They really did look after us, from the very start of our visit and right up to the last day. They have thought of everything! The property is stunning - in a beautiful setting; just right for lazy days by the pool with so much on offer in the local village and surrounding areas. There is lots to do and see; the food and wine is gorgeous when you want to go further afield. However, there really is no need because the villa is the perfect retreat. It is tastefully furnished and has all you need to relax. I would certainly recommend Trullo Michelle and know that we will be back again!

Great Italy experience
Went for my birthday last year. Very impressive place to stay, clean and spacious. Great for a hideaway or getting in the mixer to the local town or beach being near by. For me I like running and there were very quiet roads all around but felt very safe. Will be booking again soon.

A great stay at Trullo Michele
The Trullo is beautifully decorated & set in piteresque countryside. We enjoyed trips to the nearby town & plenty of outdoor BBQs & swimming. I would recommend Trullo Michele if you are a couple, group of friends or a family. It really has it all, the Trullo has a wonderful warm feeling & you will thoroughly enjoy your time there.
