In the heart of the Apulian Murgia, the Bed & Breakfast "L'isola felice" offers a welcoming refuge for those wishing to explore the wonders of Castellana Grotte and its surroundings. Surrounded by centuries-old olive trees, vineyards, and typical cherry and almond trees, the facility represents a perfect combination of relaxation and discovery of Apulian traditions. Its strategic location allows easy access to renowned local attractions, from the magnificent Castellana Caves to the trulli of Alberobello, as well as the beautiful beaches of Monopoli and Polignano a Mare.

Recently built, the facility offers comfortable double rooms, each with a private bathroom and the ability to accommodate families with additional beds. Special attention is given to breakfast, a special moment that can be enjoyed in the room or outdoors, with customization of dietary preferences. Guests can start their day with the main daily newspapers, providing a perfect blend of relaxation and culture.

"Typical welcoming" is the definition of the place, which guarantees complete autonomy and privacy, allowing guests to enjoy the outdoor spaces at any time of the day. A fenced parking area ensures safety for guests, while the constant presence of the owners, always available to provide useful suggestions on places to visit, further enriches the experience.

The surrounding countryside offers the ideal context for unique experiences, such as visits to wineries and oil mills, where one can discover the ancient traditions of wine and oil production. Guests have the opportunity to participate in dedicated tours that culminate in tastings of local products, allowing them to fully immerse themselves in Apulian culture and gastronomy.

Managed with love by the owners, the B&B is an invitation to experience unforgettable moments, rich in authentic flavors and pleasant discoveries, in a natural setting that inspires and brings serenity. The versatility of the facility, which also welcomes small children with free accommodations for those under 4, makes "L'isola felice" the ideal choice for a family vacation or a romantic getaway in the beauty of Apulia.

Couldn't have the booked trullo due to a bathtub breakdown, but we were well accommodated a bit off the beaten path. The owner is kind and accommodating.

A very good address in Puglia. Ideal location that allows you to reach the places to visit, while enjoying the relaxing calm of the countryside. Good comfort (air conditioning, bedding, storage spaces). The garden is splendid, tastefully furnished, as are the rooms. The pool is well equipped to relax after a day of walking. The abundant breakfast served in the shade of the pergola is a real special moment.

A structure that we recommend for the location, impeccable cleanliness, excellent breakfast, and the kindness and professionalism of the owner Bartolo. The trullo is stunning as well as the wellness area (too bad we didn't try it due to the late winter season).

We stayed at this property for 3 nights, from August 11th to 14th, Bartolo, the owner, was very attentive, friendly, and helpful in giving us suggestions. I rented a beautiful 120 m2 trullo because we were 4 people and a dog. We had a great time, it is surrounded by a small olive grove. It felt like paradise! Peace and tranquility! I recommend it to those traveling with children and dogs, very spacious. Convenient location to visit Alberobello, the Castellana caves (a beautiful experience), Matera, Polignano a Mare, Monopoli, etc. Some small unnecessary things are missing, but otherwise everything necessary was there. We will definitely come back in the future.

Dear Mr. Bartolo, my wife and I thank you for the hospitality and I will definitely write an excellent review on Booking website. L'Isola Felice is a great place for those looking for cleanliness, seriousness, but above all professionalism. In the structure, we were warmly welcomed and with all the respects. Our room was beautiful, comfortable but above all cared for in detail and very romantic. Then the breakfast had a wealth of choices, from sweet to savory and in a more than abundant way. What struck us the most was the large amount of information they gave us upon arrival, so as not to make us feel disoriented. Mr. Bartolo, we thank you and your family for the nice stay you offered us. The only negative note: it lasted too short to fully enjoy it, we should have stayed much longer and this saddened us a bit, but we have met you and we will not forget you. Thank you Isola Felice from Russo Mariano.

Place in the countryside but still easy to reach locations. Very kind staff and manager ready to meet the needs. Clean room, pleasant stay even though we used the pool little, inconvenience the weather. Even if you have children, we stayed with a three-year-old boy who had fun. Thanks again.

The place where Isola Felice is located makes the days very relaxing. For those looking for tranquility and rest, I recommend everyone to stay there (at least 3 days) and then enjoy the delicious homemade cakes offered at breakfast, served by very kind and always smiling girls. Gianni Anna Bari.

I stayed with my boyfriend for the second consecutive year in this establishment. The owner and his wife Angela are wonderful people, very helpful. The establishment is easily accessible and allows you to visit Alberobello and Castellana, which are a few kilometers away. The room was already warm and taken care of in detail. The breakfast was abundant and special: fruit juice, shell, biscuits, yogurt, chiacchiere, chocolate nougat, coffee or cappuccino; in short, they really pampered us! Thanks again, best regards and see you soon!
