Hotel La Sorgente

This hotel was slightly dated like most in Italy but was spotlessly clean. Very little noise from other rooms (only suitcases being move when people were arriving / leaving) . Never a problem getting a sun bed by the pool and the lifeguards always went out of their way to moves beds, get you a towel etc. Very chilled/ relaxing, although i don't think the hotel was busy. The swimming pool was lovely and a dip in the sea when it wasn't too rough. Was nice to sit outside at breakfast although the breakfast wasn't great. Had lunch at the hotel once. Portions were too big at lunch, would be nice to have sandwich options. Although helpful, we did find the staff a bit miserable. Maybe as it was the end of the season, they'd had enough! If you don't have a car, there is not a lot to do if the weather isn't great. There is a nice walk to the nearby Lido's but the path ends and I didn't fancy walking on the busy road. The town is small with lots of fish restaurants. Only 2 bars (unlike other places in Italy, the restaurants don't let you just have a drink which was odd when they weren't busy...). Everything closes for siesta. We did discover you can but a bottle of wine at the minimarket and they will give you glasses and an ice bucket and you sit outside. Great idea to watch the world go buy and mingle with the locals. We found the food and drink in the town to be good value for money. if you get bored of eating fish, you must try the Braceria in town. You pick your meat and they show you to a table. Food was lovely and soooo cheap. even a litre of wine for 8 euros, and it tasted good! We went twice during a 6 night stay.

I stayed at this amazing hotel for a few nights and the facilities there were second to none, The staff were bright cheerful and nothing was too much trouble for them to help.The food was excellent, cooked to perfection and the waiter service was just excellent. The two rooms I stayed in were comfortable spacious and the most important thing the cleanliness of them were as if they had never been used. The outdoor pool and surrounding exterior areas were kept clean all the time, the pool was immaculately clean and the sea was but a step away if you preferred a dip in the coital clear waters of the Adriatic. I can honestly say that I will definitely visit this hotel again whether it be social or work, it is sited next to the sea and resting at night is very peaceful even with balcony doors open. So if you are in this area, Savelletri in Fasano is worth a visit, you will experience a wonderful stay and particularly at The Hotel Sorgente.
