Montaguto Holiday Rentals

"American guy, traveling by motorcycle, very nice friendly stay. And they have a cute 7 month old Puppy on the grounds. She was the best part! "

"If you favour the unique charm of hyper local, locally owned and operated accommodations over generic ones catering to mass tourism, you will be enchanted by Le Foglie di Acanto. Staying there is to experience the rare pleasure of falling back in time into another epoch, unencumbered by the strains of modern life. This is a unique palazzo brimming with soul and lovingly restored by a local family over two decades with a view towards preservation. Everywhere you look you will be rewarded with thoughtful vignettes of artfully curated objects and exquisite, locally-made textiles, all inviting quiet contemplation. The verdant interior courtyard where breakfast is served under the shade of a pomegranate tree is a quiet sanctuary where one could easily while away hours. The rooms are beguilingly, impeccably clean, the hosts are delightful; and you’d do well to heed their restaurant and gelato recommendations. There’s robust wifi in the rooms, but if not for that, you’d not be mistaken for falling under the delusion that you’d entered another era the moment you step through the doors of this enchanting property."

"Mirabella Eclano, about two hours east of Naples, is a very old hill town with breathtaking views of the surrounding countryside of lush, green hills, vineyards and mountains, that is every bit as gorgeous as Tuscany. Situated below is the modern town, a series of small, impressive communities. For the five days I visited Mirabella Eclano, Ayma B&B was that rare near-perfect place to stay. Owner and host Alessandra was exceptionally thoughtful and kind, even reaching out to her friends before I arrived to help me connect with people I should meet while there. The B&B is new, but built on the site of a ruin, and designed by the owner to reflect how she imagined a 15th c palazzo would look, complete with four turrets. My suite of rooms was immaculate, came stocked with everything I needed, including a super-comfortable Tempurpedic bed and pillows! Alessandra’s made-to-order breakfast every morning was delicious, especially alfresco on the patio in its pretty setting. Ayma B&B is a very special place to stay. I would give it 10 stars!"

"While the evening staff was very welcoming and the room large, everything else in this hotel was extremely disappointing. The shower was tiny and the water flow was hardly a drizzle. The room was basic and the furniture - old. Breakfast was basic compared to standard Italian hotels, and most tables in the restaurant were filthy with leftovers and crumbs from previous guests. I definitely do not recommend this place. "

"upscale, top quality boutique hotel and a great base for exploring this part of Puglia. Easy 10-15 minute walk to town (lighted up at night so no worries even alone)."

"Check in was overly difficult. Wanting information about my guest and not allowing me to check in ,without it "

"Positives: service was fast and friendly. Nicola was very helpful of where to visit in LUCERA and help with luggage. Breakfast pastries were fresh and coffee great. Negatives: the location is a10 minute car ride to town and nothing is around (except unfinished building). Landscaping needs to be cleaned up to give the look from the photos. Any noise in the building is noticeable in the room, even chairs moving and low voices. I picked because of the positives reviews, which I think are out of date."

"Great secluded hotel. Staff was first class."

"All good"
