What guests say
Reviews consistently mention the excellent cleanliness of the property and the friendliness and helpfulness of the hosts. Rooms are described as spacious, comfortable, and well-kept. The tranquil location is convenient for both relaxing in nature and exploring local attractions such as Castellana Caves and Alberobello, with shops and restaurants easily accessible on foot. Breakfast is frequently praised for its abundance and, in some cases, for offering fresh fruit from the garden. The atmosphere is quiet and ideal for relaxation. Some guests suggest improvements to the Wi-Fi connection and, occasionally, the bedding quality.

I spent two days of true relaxation. Surrounded by nature, and close to the urban center with services of all kinds such as bars, supermarkets, and shops of all kinds, as well as inns, grill houses, and pizzerias. Places to visit and get to know.

Lovely place. Real Italian farm. Close to the charming downtown of Grotto Castelano. For breakfast, in addition to regular yogurt, coffee, and pastries, they offered fresh figs, cherries, and apricots straight from the trees! I was ecstatic!

Very beautiful and characteristic structure, spacious rooms, huge bathroom, well cleaned and well maintained. At night you can rest in absolute silence and despite the almost 40 degrees, we didn't need to turn on the air conditioning. The manager, in addition to being friendly, is generous with information and curiosities about the wonderful places to visit in the area (the caves of Castellana, Alberobello, Monopoli, etc.). Definitely recommended!

Lovely bed and breakfast on the edge of the village. Parking on the property and beautiful gardens. A five-minute walk to shops and restaurants. The hosts are helpful and friendly. We would not hesitate to stay here anytime in the future. We would highly recommend this B&B.

Ciao Donato, siamo stati contenti di aver fatto la tua conoscenza e che la nostra struttura sia stata un piacevole punto di appoggio. Come da te anche evidenziato, stiamo sistemando i problemi di ricezione dei canali tv, i quali purtroppo inspiegabilmente si ripresentano dopo un temporale. Per il wifi invece, mi spiace averlo saputo solo ora leggendo e non durante il tuo soggiorno. Punteggio più basso seppur positivo, lo vedo per la colazione e quello mi duole un po' nell'orgoglio: ci piace coccolare i nostri ospiti fornendo quello che più gradite, per cui mi spiace se il nostro buffet non andava incontro ai tuoi gusti, avremmo potuto integrare se ce lo avessi notificato.

A cozy, clean, and excellent value for money bed and breakfast. I met the owners who are very friendly and amiable. It was a pleasure and an excellent service to stay at the Ape Rossa, also thanks to the advice given on what to see in the surroundings, which, for those arriving and eager to explore, is a very welcome and important thing.\n\nTo try and/or return!
