My family had a wonderful time here in June, for almost 3 weeks. The hotel is perfectly located on a hill next to the national park, overlooking the sea. The complaints in other reviews, that it's far away from the beach and city, are not justified in my opinion because it all matches the descriptions of the hotel online. There is a free shuttle bus which takes you hourly to a nice beach club (5 minute drive, sunbeds are included), and one can even walk just down the hill to reach a small public beach. The place itself has been refurbished over the past years, and some parts are still updated one after another. But there is no major construction going on anymore, so it's overall very quiet and peaceful. Most outstanding is definitely the quality of all the finishings, the marble floors, and the beautiful pool area. The rooms are of different categories, and we had a standard double room. For a family with kids, this category may be a bit small, and we'd choose a bigger one next time. The rooms have all been renovated, only the bath rooms are slightly dated, which didn't bother us, though, as they were still nice and matched the descriptions and photos. As for the food, this was certainly another highlight. Very capable chef, and we ate there quiet often instead of going out. Fantastic pasta, seafood, or just small snacks - we were always satisfied, and our wishes were met. What made this place so special for us was the staff. Everyone from the hotel owner to the cleaning ladies made us feel like family and were super friendly and helpful at all times. The hotel's general manager made everything possible, no matter what we needed, and the drinks at the bar always came with a smile and nice chat. . Should we decide to come back to Puglia, it would be definitely the Rodi Resort again. This is certainly the nicest place in the area.

Only minor comment for improvement: maybe a small playground or toy corner for kids could be nice and would complement the overall very kids friendly place

This is certainly a four star restaurant, five star service. From the moment we arrived Rocco and all the staff were excellent.

The only thing that I surprise me was the cost of some of the food and drink by the pool. I understand these sort of resorts are always going be a little bit more costly. I thought that €4 for espresso was a little steep.Say this the quality of everything was excellent.

breakfast good

Clean, modern, comfortable, best location and excellent service. Absolutely the best.

Pool

Under construction

Enjoyable dinner on terrace

In the process of being refurbished- including rooms in the same flour we stayed on. Bedrooms have been refurbished but bathrooms have not - sanitary ware is old and dated - very strange to make the rooms look nice and leave give bathrooms - spoils what good be a good room. Breakfast was a very limited choice . Location is not good - the whole of the Gargantico peninsula feels like it needs money spending on it. Roads are terrible, villages and buildings look derelict and in disrepair and the roadsides are full of rubbish and dumped fly tipping - not a place I’d recommend.

The hotel staff is very kind, especially the driver. The pool is amazing.

Poor breakfast. They don't have a private beach. They don’t change linens daily. The hotel is not ready…it is under construction. I paid too much for what it offers.

The pool and the staff (some were helpful)

Location, the ‘resort’ offered no services. Elevator and wifi did not work. This hotel is just a hotel with pool and not a resort. Lots of construction going on and not finished. No gym or facilities. No Dinner . Nice breakfast and a cold lunch on special order .

The property was ok with a nice view of the sea. The room was also good.

Seriously far away from the beach.
