The most perfect stay

We had such a lovely stay at Villa Raffaella. First of all, everyone who worked there was so nice and welcoming to us. The hotel itself is also just so beautiful and has a rich history. We stayed in the room on the roof and it was just next level, probably my favorite hotel room ever. Housekeeping did a great job with cleaning and the breakfast was far better than your average Italian breakfast. The location is also as good as it gets in Santa Cesarea Terme - close to the bus stop, city and places to swim. I can’t wait to visit here again!

Perfection!

This was one of my favorite places in Puglia! The lady at the front desk was so welcoming and warm. The room was gorgeous as well as the grounds. The breakfast was spectacular… it had everything including very freshly cut up fruit. The cappuccino machine made amazing coffee. The location was walkable to everything. She recommend a restaurant for dinner with fabulous views and was only a 5 minute walk. This was a very last minute booking and was a very good value. I will definitely return.

Lovely but:

Although the place in pictures was lovely as well as the view, and the staff friendly during our check in, be aware that there is no check in prior to 3 and no staff around before that. We were according to our check-in, upgraded, but our rooms were in the back building with a slight view of the sea. There are different style rooms with different amenities, therefore, I would be aware of what you want in the room. Also, as far as going swimming, it is not easy to get into the water especially if you have young children, cliffs and rocks are the norm.

très bel établissement

Belle et grande chambre pour trois. Réfrigérateur et cuisine. grande terrasse avec vue mer. Petit déjeuner copieux et varié Accueil très sympathique et personnel vraiment bienveillant et parlant le français. La salle de bain mériterait une petite rénovation minimum (couper la porte en bas pour qu'elle ne frotte plus, refaire les joints de la douche). Petits travaux sans frais et qui changeraient pas mal les choses.

Ottimo hotel per visitare il Salento

Foi una estádia muito agradavel. O hotel é muito bonito com móveis de época e elegantes. A cidadezinha é muito charmosa e acolhente. Um bom ponto de base para quem quer fazer as praias do Adriático e do Ionico, além de também ser próximo de Leuca. Gabriella foi muito solicota e profissional conosco. Recomendo

Het is een mooi oud gebouw op een mooie ligging. Het onderhoud van het pand is niet zo gemakkelijk, en dat laat zich zien, lamp kapot, wat schilderwerk, maar dat is normaal. Wij hebben genoten van de kamer met uitzicht op zee. Verder is er een goed ontbijt. Gabriella gaf ons tips om te doen in de omgeving. Onze conclusie is dat je het zelf moet gaan zien, het is zeker de moeite waard.

In generale il nostro soggiorno è stato molto poacevole, camera essenziale, gorde un po piccola ma giusta per chi trascorre poco tempo in stanza. la villa esternamente è molto bella e Giorgio, che ci ha accolti, è stato sempre molto gentile. materasso non adatto a persone molto alte e/o corpulente in quanto di dimensioni "normali". Punto di nota a favore della struttura sono stati i cuscini, davvero comodi.

Delusione

L'hotel non è assolutamente un quattro stelle... È semplicemente un bed and breakfast... Non ha servizio di portineria... Le foto non sono assolutamente quelle delle camere.... Le camere sono quasi tutte al piano terra dietro la struttura come cantine... Umide con mobili approssimativi... Unica nota positiva la pulizia

Bellissima Villa d'epoca

Bella esperienza in una villa storica del luogo, ristrutturata in modo magistrale e con grandissima sensibilità per i suoi tratti architettonici esterni e interni. La colazione servita sulla terrazza con affaccio sul mare rappresenta sicuramente il momento più bello e rilassante dell'esperienza di Santa Cesarea Terme. Un grazie davvero sincero in primo luogo a Ercole e Glauco e a tutto il resto del personale sempre disponibili e gentili. Una vacanza magnifica corroborata dal sole salentino di una splendida settimana di ottobre. Da consigliare
