24/08/2025: The cleanliness of the rooms, the service, the location—these are the best qualities for a place to stay. The pool was also so well-maintained, making my entire stay a delight. It was wonderful to see the family working together to run the place.
The breakfast was also excellent. They said they use locally-harvested or homemade ingredients like tomatoes, oil, and basil. The food, made with fresh ingredients, was exceptionally delicious. I also made a reservation for dinner on my last night, and it was the best pasta I've ever had. They sell oil, but unfortunately they didn't have a 1-liter bottle that day, so I couldn't buy any. The local wine was also fantastic!
The meal was so satisfying that I wanted to cancel my remaining plans and stay here longer in Puglia.
If you have a rental car, it's also conveniently located for exploring nearby tourist destinations like Monopoli, Albelobello, and Polignano a Mare. I hope Koreans will experience this place through this review.
This B&B met the highest standards in every aspect—cleanliness, service, and location. The swimming pool was very well maintained, and we truly enjoyed a relaxing and pleasant stay. It was also lovely to see the property being managed by a warm and dedicated family.
The breakfast was excellent. We were told that many of the ingredients — such as tomatoes, olive oil, and basil — were either homegrown or homemade. The freshness of the ingredients was clearly reflected in the quality of the food. On our last evening, we booked dinner at the property, and the pasta served was, without exaggeration, the best I have ever had. They also sell their olive oil, though unfortunately, the 1-liter bottles were not available during our stay. The local wine we had was also exceptional.
The dining experience was so memorable that we considered canceling the rest of our travel plans just to stay longer and enjoy more of what Puglia has to offer.
If you are traveling by car, the location is very convenient for visiting nearby towns such as Monopoli, Alberobello, and Polignano a Mare. I sincerely hope Korean travelers reading this review will have the opportunity to experience this wonderful place.
22/08/2025: Before booking, I read a few reviews, and I can confirm that my stay at B&B Il Leccio exceeded all my expectations! I recommend the property not only for its central location for exploring the towns of the Itria Valley or along the coast of central Puglia, but above all for the hospitality, helpfulness, and dedication the family offers to their guests. The breakfast, served at the table and featuring both sweet and savory options, is excellent, plentiful, and high-quality, with a focus on local products. Having stayed for three days, I can attest to the variety of dishes. Lunch and/or dinner are also available upon request, and, tempted by breakfast, we decided to have lunch twice, and the food was divine. The property is clean and functional, surrounded by greenery, and allows for wonderful hours of quiet and relaxation, thanks also to the swimming pool for guests' exclusive use. A special thank you to the entire family who runs the B&B, and we hope to see you again soon.
