17/11/2025: A Home Away From Home at Bio Agriturismo Serragambetta
Our family spent one unforgettable week at Bio Agriturismo Serragambetta in early July 2025, and it’s hard to put into words just how special this place truly is. From the moment we arrived — well after 1am due to a delayed train from Rome — we felt like we were being welcomed by family, not checking into a hotel. Domenico stayed up late just to greet us, and before we even opened the trunk to unload our bags, he ushered us into the kitchen and insisted we eat. Within minutes, we were sitting around his table enjoying fresh focaccia and cured meats prepared just for us. After a long and exhausting journey with three kids (12, 9, and 7), his kindness and warmth felt like a hug.
That feeling never faded.
The entire week was filled with the same genuine hospitality from Domenico and every member of the staff. They are down-to-earth, thoughtful, and truly invested in making every guest feel at home. The property itself is breathtaking — rustic southern Italian charm in every corner, with beautifully maintained grounds and an atmosphere that instantly relaxes you. Our room was spotless and comfortable, and even without air conditioning, the cool nights made sleeping easy.
And the pool… absolutely incredible. One of the nicest saltwater pools we’ve ever experienced — crystal clear, perfectly kept, and an oasis for both adults and kids.
The food deserves its own review. Everything is sourced from their organic farm and prepared with such love that every meal feels like it came straight from nonna’s kitchen. The nightly dinners were the highlight of each day — three courses served family-style, where guests share one long table, talk, laugh, and enjoy each other's company. It was wonderfully kid-friendly too, with table tennis, foosball, board games, and activities that kept our little ones happy and engaged. Breakfast each morning was simple and perfect: baked goods, fresh fruit, focaccia that might be the best we've ever had, and unforgettable Italian espresso.
Domenico was also incredibly helpful in planning our daily outings. His local knowledge made it easy to explore the region — and the location couldn’t be better. Within 20 minutes, we were able to reach Polignano a Mare, Alberobello, Monopoli, Ostuni, Lecce, beautiful beaches, and so many other must-see spots.
When it came time to leave, saying goodbye truly felt emotional. Domenico treated us like close family — hugs, a family photo, and a parting gift to remember our time there. It was the perfect end to a stay that meant so much to us.
We will absolutely be back — hopefully sooner rather than later. This place is a gem, and the people who run it are even more extraordinary. Bio Agriturismo Serragambetta will always have a piece of our hearts.
