The pool area is fantastic! Really nice poolbeds, bar with freshly made juices and lunch, which is perfect if you want to have a chill day by the pool. The breakfast was also very extensive with everything you can wish for! The location is close by monopoli but you need a car to get around. They have pool towels available.

The area around the hotel is not the prettiest and close by a big road so less romantic, however within the grounds of the hotel you don’t notice it that much and they have a beautiful garden!

A great place. A huge very comfy, quiet room with good facilities, excellent choice of breakfast, a lovely pool with more than enough beds for the the small number of rooms and a great pool bar . It is far enough from town to be very quiet but a car is essential especially in the evening unless you plan to eat in your room. Very helpful and accommodating staff

The tranquil music around the pool was a little tiresome but not offensive

Property is beautiful. Swimming pool is excellent and staff are absolutely spectacular. The breakfast was amazing too! Staff so kind and considerate helped when one of us was unwell and collected us from the train. They were just exceptionally good and made our stay!

Rooms could do with a little modernisation. Everything was very clean and there was nothing broken. Taxi required to travel to and from Monopoli town. If going in the summer too hot to walk to town.

Absolutely amazing staff, everything so clean and tidy. Katherina especially was just the most lovely, welcoming and helpful staff member. The breakfast every morning was amazing. Overall we had such a great experience and hope to come back one day.

Where the property is located wasn’t ideal and right next to the power station but they have made sure when you are at the pool you don’t even notice it.

The location is 10 minute drive from Monopoli town, away from the busyness and just what we needed. The service is excellent. The staff were friends by the time we left after a week of relaxation. Loved the pool area and the breakfasts and grateful for a spacious free car park. Shout out to Antonella, Maria, Catarina and Mateo.

Only the parking in town.

A lovely, lovely place to stay. Great facilities - the pool area and cabanas were a great place to spend the day and meant you could get shade and sun depending on how you were feeling. The staff were all super-friendly and helpful. We felt very secluded at Residenza il Sole, which was nice, but then great being only a 10 minute taxi from beautiful Monopoli old town as well - the best of both worlds!

Residenza Il Sole is a fabulous little gem of a place. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay, which was a highlight of our visit to Monopoli. Staff were very friendly and courteous. Swimming pool was lovely and clean. Breakfast was lovely. Our room was spacious, and very comfortable.

A small coffee machine in the bedrooms would be a nice touch........ There was a local taxi service available, but they charged €15 each way into Monopoli town centre (a distance of 3km), which, to be honest, is a complete rip-off.

There are three highlights for me - the pool itself and surrounding area with cabanas and hammock swings it’s a beautiful oasis. Whether relaxing from visiting the spectacular Puglia or needing some time out to rest inbetween work meetings. The second is the location offering a secluded space with safe parking as well as being just 7 minutes drive to Monopoli. The last but by no means least, is the yummy and varied breakfast which is delivered in a spectacularly professional yet friendly manner, thanks to Antonella.

Nothing major really. I stayed in probably the smallest room with no balcony and was comfortable. The bed was a little squeaky but I am splitting hairs. The bathroom was luxury and spacious.

This hotel was totally gorgeous. So relaxing with a stunning pool area and gardens. The breakfast was delicious with a few choices and the staff couldn’t do enough for us with plenty of recommendations.

We didn’t mind the walk into town but it was around 15 ish minutes as there wasn’t a bus close by but wasn’t a major for us as we enjoyed an evening stroll.

Very friendly staff at breakfast, check in and the pool bar. Perfect location to relax at the pool. Breakfast was very delicious, every day. Historic center is a 30 minute walk. But ok for us.

The room was a bit outdated. Couch needed an update. Toilet seat did not work properly. Rain shower was broken, water came sideways. And there was a weird smell from the sewer in the bathroom. These are experiences you do not expect with the price of the room.
