Description

Fontanelle is an organic farmhouse by the sea, a few kilometers north of Otranto, and a stone's throw from the beautiful Baia dei Turchi beach. We have designed our rooms in harmony with the natural environment that surrounds them, using local materials, sustainable technologies, and furnishings that reflect the culture of the region.

Our location allows easy access not only to the free beach or bathing establishments (within walking distance), but also to the natural oasis of the Alimini Lakes (1 km by car or bicycle) and the beautiful Otranto (5 minutes by car or bus).

We are pleased to accommodate you in 9 double rooms with bathrooms, all different but equally comfortable, furnished thematically inspired by the characters of Otranto's history: the beautiful Idrusa, Alfonso d'Aragona, Akmed Pascià, Colangelo the fisherman, and many others. Each room has a unique atmosphere!
The rooms, all equipped with private outdoor space with a clothesline, table, and chairs, some overlooking a sunny garden, are provided with: air conditioning, mosquito nets, a small fridge, TV, complimentary soaps, bed linen and towels, shower, wifi internet, and internal parking. A rich organic breakfast is served outdoors.

Within the estate, you can also purchase our organic products: extra virgin olive oil, pasta made from ancient grains, fresh vegetables, tomato sauce, and other products from local farms.

The Alimini lakes, places of botanical and faunal interest, with canoe rental and horseback riding excursions, are 1 km away (an ideal distance for cycling).

What guests say

Reviews emphasize the excellent location of the property, very close to Baia dei Turchi beach and nestled in nature, making it ideal for tranquility and relaxation. Guests consistently praise the cleanliness, the well-cared-for premises, and the friendliness of the staff and owner. The homemade and abundant breakfast is a highlight, though some guests suggest offering more savory options.

Minor remarks include the small size of some rooms or bathrooms and the nearby road, but overall, reviews are highly positive, recommending the property for couples and families alike.

giancarlo

Great courtesy and helpfulness from all the staff. Excellent breakfast. The location is perfect for Baia dei Turchi beach. It's a pity that it is so close to the main road and the roundabout. The kittens brightened our stay. A shelf in the bathroom could be very useful as a place to put items. Any request was promptly satisfied. We will return.

sandra

Great location. The cleaning every two days should be reconsidered. Breakfast: too many sweet items, too few savory options and, above all, no buffet service. It's a pity because the property hosts many European guests.

stayed from 08/29/2025 to 09/07/2025

The answer from the host:
Grazie, Sandra, della sua recensione e per aver apprezzato la posizione in cui ci troviamo, a due passi da una splendida spiaggia e a pochi chilometri dal bellissimo centro storico di Otranto. Accettiamo le sue indicazioni e i suoi suggerimenti! Ne approfitto per chiarire, a beneficio di chi legge questa risposta, che la colazione è strutturata con un mini buffet al tavolo per una questione igienica e logistica che ottimizza le preparazioni e fa anche in modo che nessuno rimanga senza la sua parte di colazione. La sua osservazione riguardo la notevole presenza di europei è assolutamente corretta! Noi però abbiamo scelto in principio di offrire una colazione più tipica italiana, con una piccola percentuale di salato, per risultare ancora più autentici in quanto agriturismo e non hotel. Crediamo infatti che la vocazione di una struttura piccola e altamente radicata nel territorio come la nostra sia proprio quella di trasmettere le tradizioni e la cultura gastronomica del territorio che vogliamo far conoscere a chi soggiorna qui. Siamo comunque sempre aperti alle richieste specifiche dei nostri ospiti. Chi volesse una colazione continentale può comunque trovarla in tante catene alberghiere che anche nel Salento non mancano di certo :) Un caro saluto, Marina

We went for two consecutive years and we had an excellent experience with all the staff,always very helpful and welcoming. The nearby Baia dei Turchi is spectacular. Definitely worth trying.

The Fontanelle farmhouse is truly an exceptional property: the room was very well cared for, spacious, with a patio overlooking the wonderful garden! Breakfast was served in the garden gazebo by very kind ladies, everything abundant, the cakes prepared every day by Marina were excellent! We very much appreciated the availability of bikes to cross the wonderful pinewood that leads to the Baia dei Turchi beach and to the nearby beaches. The sea is beautiful! The farmhouse is run with passion and dedication and it shows in every little detail, highly recommended for those who love nature and tranquility, compliments to Marina!

stefania

We spent a very pleasant week in this accommodation. The location is really excellent: in just a few minutes on foot you reach the sea, avoiding the stress of paid parking. The car can be easily left inside the residence, and paradoxically, you walk less from here than parking along the street! The breakfast was a real surprise: abundant, varied, and of excellent quality. Everything was homemade by the owner, as we were told – really compliments, you can feel the care and passion in every detail. We really hope to come back soon!

The structure is very well maintained and is right next to the pine forest through which one can reach beautiful free beaches on foot. Breakfast is served in the lush communal garden under a large gazebo. When available, they provide bicycles to guests free of charge.

Grazie mille, Stefano! Ci siamo visti solo al vostro arrivo, purtroppo non ho avuto il piacere di salutarvi personalmente alla partenza ma sono felice di sapere che abbiate passato delle piacevoli giornate di vacanza da noi, anche grazie al nostro meraviglioso staff. :) Speriamo di incontrarci in un’altra futura occasione, così da poter trasformare quel mio 9 in 10!

Great location, only the pine forest separates us from the sea and 5 km from the center of Otranto. Good rooms and also the cleanliness. Fantastic internal parking. Having bicycles available to reach other beaches or the lake. Breakfast with 2 homemade cakes, croissants, and different savory focaccia every morning. I would have liked to find the fantastic typical cold cuts and cheeses. 10 relaxing days thanks also to the very helpful staff and owner.

stayed from 06/22/2025 to 07/02/2025

Grazie tante, Michela, della sua bella recensione! Siamo felici che abbiate passato una piacevole vacanza all’insegna del relax, anche grazie alle nostre piccole attenzioni quotidiane! riguardo ai salumi e formaggi, la prossima volta basterà farci una richiesta e provvederemo :) A presto!

Homemade breakfast, very varied. The owner's welcome is very pleasant. We speak French and she made an effort to speak to us in French. Very beautiful beach 10 minutes away on foot, nice walk through the pines to get there. Very satisfied with our stay!

aliona

Unfortunately, it did not meet our expectations. The bed was very uncomfortable as the frame was missing and the mattress was very low. We returned with a severe backache. The bathroom was small and consequently, it did not even have a small cabinet to place any items, not to mention the wardrobe which was suitable for only a few clothes. The rest had to be kept in the suitcase. Recommended for a couple of days but not for a longer period. We thank the manager for the hospitality and kindness.

stayed from 09/15/2024 to 09/21/2024

The answer from the host:
Ciao Aliona, Ok! Accettiamo questa recensione con la massima serenità, consapevoli di non poter piacere a tutti, è fisiologicamente impossibile! Consapevoli, soprattutto, di non aver promesso ciò che a vostro parere non abbiamo mantenuto, e di aver fatto, come sempre, del nostro meglio per rendere la vostra vacanza piacevole, a dispetto degli imprevisti, del maltempo e di ogni altro problema sorto. Vi ringraziamo per aver apprezzato la nostra gentilezza e disponibilità, che, d’altronde, non sono le nostre uniche note di merito: lo diciamo senza supponenza, solitamente la maggior parte degli ospiti non ha nulla da eccepire riguardo la qualità dei letti (voto 8. 6 per questo aspetto su Booking, per esempio) né sulla qualità dei servizi offerti, che cerchiamo di tenere sempre al meglio delle nostre possibilità. Vi ringrazio perché questa recensione mi dà la possibilità di chiarire un aspetto per me molto importante: prima di venire qui, è necessario comprendere che il nostro non è un resort, parola che va tanto di moda adesso, ma una piccola e semplice struttura in agriturismo, una realtà familiare che, con autenticità e passione, da 13 anni accoglie viaggiatori a due passi dal mare, offrendo alloggio in delle camere che raccontano una storia, quella più antica di Otranto, senza dimenticare i dovuti comfort (Wi-Fi, aria condizionata, frigorifero, biciclette, stoviglie ecologiche, etc). Non siamo e non vogliamo venderci come qualcosa di più, quindi, anche e sopratutto per chi legge questa recensione e la relativa risposta, per noi è importante trasmettere la verità di ciò che siamo, per far sì che qui arrivino esattamente le persone che stanno cercando proprio questo, un’atmosfera e un progetto da abbracciare, che si soggiorni per due giorni o per dieci. Un caro saluto, Marina.

marco

A friendly reception and very friendly service during breakfast. The rooms are clean, and the beds are good. There is a lack of a pleasant outdoor area in the green to spend time in the facility without having to stay in the room.

Le Fontanelle is an oasis of tranquility in a splendid place in Salento. Magnificent Tina and Antonella with their availability and exquisite breakfasts.

The answer from the host:
Grazie mille, Andrea! Siamo davvero felici che abbiate passato dei bei giorni di vacanza qui da noi! Come ‘gestore’ vorrei potermi lamentare del mio voto 8/10, perché aspiro sempre all’eccellenza e vorrei dare sempre il meglio a ogni ospite… ma mi accontenterò (si scherza!) con la consapevolezza che la frenesia di agosto non mi ha dato il tempo di conoscervi meglio:) sono comunque contenta che le mie preparazioni mattutine vi siano piaciute. Alla prossima! Marina.

Delighted to have stayed at the Fontanelle property. We appreciated the simplicity of tradition in colors, scents, flavors, and music. The owner pays attention to details and personally cooks Salento products served for breakfast. All this creates a pleasant atmosphere, far from the noise of mass tourism. Crossing the enchanting pine forest, you can reach less crowded beaches overlooking the beautiful sea of Salento. The staff welcomes you with grace and kindness.

margaretha

We had a beautiful stay of 6 nights at this charming farm with direct access to the lovely beach. The owner welcomed us very friendly and gave us very good information about restaurants in the neighborhood and sites to see. The room is located in a nice garden and in the morning we had a good breakfast in the garden. We went for a swim every morning. So lovely! The town of Otranto is a jewel.

The facility is very well maintained and there is nothing missing (except a pool). 10 minutes walk to the public beach (free).

Strategic location, very quiet place despite the proximity to the road, super breakfast with sweets made by the lady of the place and served by the very kind ladies Tina and Antonella! You can reach Baia dei Turchi in no time from the property without taking the car, which is no small thing! I recommend the naturalistic landscape tour that the property suggests upon arrival; very fascinating with a very prepared and nice guide. We hope to return!

My husband and I stayed at this property for a week. It is located in the countryside of Otranto and a short walk from Baia dei Turchi. The free beach of Baia dei Turchi is easily reachable on foot, crossing a pine forest. It's about 800 meters from the rooms. In the morning, a plentiful breakfast is served, filled with sweet and savory delicacies prepared by the owner and served by two very helpful and kind ladies. The same ladies take care of the room cleaning, always perfect, even the two guys who practically take care of everything are always very helpful and kind. In short, a quiet and well-kept place in a fabulous seaside environment. Highly recommended to everyone. And I repeat, something not to be underestimated at all is the kindness and availability that reigns! Thank you very much to all the staff for the beautiful and very peaceful week spent with you! We will definitely come back.

We had a good time and appreciated the opportunity to use the bicycles provided by the property for free. Very caring staff attentive to requests. Beautiful walk in the pine forest before reaching the beach, which, however, is rather small and crowded. We also enjoyed the free guided tour of Otranto available with the Otranto card.

Gentile Roberto, grazie della sua opinione positiva!

La reception è aperta dalle 9 alle 12 e dalle 15:30 alle 19. Negli orari restanti, continuiamo comunque a lavorare per organizzare al meglio le vostre vacanze;) Alla prossima!

Great accommodation near a beautiful stretch of coast. Only suggestion for the property: provide a water bottle in the room upon arrival, considering the presence of a small fridge.

The answer from the host:
Grazie mille dell'opinione positiva e anche del suggerimento.

The room is quite small but the terrace is spacious and overlooks the garden. It's pleasant to have breakfast outdoors and the two ladies served us very kindly. The homemade products are of excellent quality. The Baia dei Turchi beach is beautiful and is a 10-minute walk from the property. The manager provided us with all the information we were looking for.

The structure, immersed in greenery, has airy, very clean, and quiet rooms. Excellent breakfast, prepared with zero kilometer chosen products and absolutely organic. The kindness and welcome of the owner and all the staff warm the heart and ensure perfect holidays. Highly recommended.

Nicely situated only a five-minute walk from a lovely beach, which means that you don't have to use the car (heaven) and that you can get to the beach and pitch your spot before everyone arrives. Tasteful rooms and a great breakfast using top quality products all served by two charming ladies Tina and Antonella. The owner Marina is very kind and helpful and as a local knows the area perfectly and has tons of good addresses. Finally easy access to Lecce, Otranto etc. Highly recommended.

Excellent for visiting Otranto and surroundings. Very close to the Alimini lakes. The beach is about 10 minutes walk away immersed in a beautiful pine forest. Good welcome and suggestions from the reception.

Very welcoming, well-made, clean and comfortable structure. Mrs. Marina is very kind and helpful. Excellent breakfast prepared in the garden with cakes of her production and other products made with excellent raw materials. Good location close to the sea and a few kilometers from Otranto. Definitely worth returning.

The excellent location, the availability of the staff and the owner, and the beauty of the beach deserve it, and I will come back.

We are very satisfied with our stay at Fontanelle. The room was nice and clean. For Italy, the breakfast was very good. The location close to a nice natural beach was perfect for us. Thanks also to the nice staff. A very good place that I recommend.

Magnificent stay! The property is new, extremely clean and detailed. The staff is very kind and helpful and the owner is truly exquisite and attentive to every need. The breakfast is varied and delicious, rich in always fresh local products. We also enjoyed the products of the farm at lunchtime, such as fresh vegetables, bread and focaccia to accompany mozzarella and burrata, and we were ecstatic. The place is close to the bay of the Turks, where you can enjoy the free beach or equipped facilities and where the water is crystal clear with a sandy bottom. Ten minutes by car you will find Otranto and many places that offer zero km local cuisine for your evenings. A splendid holiday, worth trying!

The strategic position of the structure with the tranquility enjoyed inside a few tens of meters from Baia dei Turchi, Marina's courtesy and kindness, and the absolutely high-level breakfast make this place unique and special. The products made directly by the Fontanelle farm are simply exceptional.

I was looking for a place in Otranto in the Alimini area that was close to the sea, so I wouldn't have to take the car. In March, while browsing the internet, I came across the website of the B&B Le Fontanelle and since there were no photos of the rooms, I decided to call. I spoke with Marina, the owner, who informed me that they were finishing the work and that she would send me the photos before publishing them online. This is how it went, I fell in love with what I saw and impressed by Marina's kindness, I decided to book. The arrival was a pleasant surprise, for me it was the first time in a B&B, beautiful structure very well maintained and characterized by surprising details, in full respect of Salento traditions. Marina proved to be an excellent hostess and her collaborators showed unique kindness, always ready to meet every need. One flaw: having booked only for a week. Thank you and see you again for sure.
