Hey from Michela

Member since July 2014 | 39,668 hits

Hello everyone, I'm Michela. Throughout my life, I have traveled extensively while working in the tourism industry in Italy and abroad. This led me to the idea of transforming part of my family home into a small and cozy bed and breakfast. It is located not far from the town, yet it offers a tranquil and panoramic setting.

Vieste is a tourist destination that has a bit of everything, especially for nature enthusiasts. I will be delighted to accompany you during your vacation, providing recommendations on what to see and where to go based on your preferences. I have a deep love for nature and practicing yoga, and I am knowledgeable and passionate about my region.

I can't wait to meet you all.. Michela.

Staying with Michela was an outstanding experience. She was so kind and welcoming. The property was clean, well cared for and lovely to stay in. Michela made the most amazing breakfast on the terrace with the great view. She went above and beyond for the comfort and enjoyment of her guests, she even took us to an evening in the countryside which is an experience that will stay with us forever. Thank you so much.

barb

Our stay here was one of our best in Italy. Our room was clean and comfortable. Michela, the host, was so kind, friendly, and had so many special touches that made our stay a memorable one. The breakfast was abundant and delicious. She made dinner reservations for us, recommended beaches, and just made us feel at home. Including making a special cupcake with a candle for my husband’s birthday. Would definitely recommend anyone visiting Vieste to stay here. The walk up from town is steep but doable, and there is lots of parking in town if you want to drive down and back.

This B&B is located 5 minutes from Vieste by car. Its elevated position allows for a magnificent view from the tree-lined terrace. The room was very comfortable, decorated with care. The amenities are very well thought out and modern. There is also a possibility to do laundry. The breakfast is of high quality with fresh and homemade products. Michela is responsive in her communication, very warm, available, attentive. She is always ready to provide information on tours, restaurants, everything we need. One of the best B&Bs during our stay in Puglia. I recommend it 100%.

I stayed last week at the bed and breakfast Il Giardino Stellato with a spectacular view and climate. In the evening from the terrace you can see all the lights of Vieste and in the morning you can see the sunrise. The rooms are very clean. Mrs. Michela, the owner of the facility, is extremely friendly and always available for any advice. Conclusion... a spectacle.

daniele

We were guests at the B&B 'Il Giardino Stellato' from 25 to 27 June. Welcomed with great kindness and availability by Mrs. Michela, always ready to meet any need and give advice. The structure is reserved and welcoming, rich in colors and details to admire, the result of the owner's passion. Located in an area that may not be too convenient, but from which you can admire, especially in the evening, the beauty of Vieste. We stayed in a triple room, spacious, comfortable, and above all very clean! Rich and healthy breakfast with a choice of sweet or savory, very good fruit or chocolate muffins and walnut bread by Mrs. Michela. A very pleasant experience that I can safely recommend to anyone. A praise to the Giardino Stellato and Mrs. Michela! I hope to return as soon as possible.

Michela is a very attentive hostess who spares no effort to make the stay very pleasant. She puts a lot of heart and many. She is discreet, attentive, and always full of good advice. We had a perfect but all too short stay in this beautiful region. The room is very beautiful and comfortable, and the breakfast extraordinary, with fresh and homemade products.

vincenzo

Although it is Vieste, which overall is quite chaotic, we spent three days of vacation in a climate of peace and tranquility. Being woken up by the rooster's crow, hearing no noise except that of nature, looking out from the terrace and seeing Vieste at your feet, starting the day with a rich and varied breakfast with the smile and availability of Michela, the owner of the b&b. In short, after three days, it's hard to go back home. The only drawback is the road to get there, about 200 meters of quite steep ascent, otherwise everything is ok.

stayed from 07/11/2021 to 07/14/2021

The answer from the host:
Grazie di vero cuore e si ho questa bellissima salita che a non tutti piace capisco e comprendo ma per fortuna c’è a chi non dispiace. Anche perché di notte si dorme freschi senza accendere l'‘aria condizionata. Grazie per la vostra simpatia e grazie per aver scelto il mio B&B tra i tantissimi a VIESTE. Michela.

Perfect B&B for a holiday away from the hustle and bustle of the center of Vieste (still close to the town). Congratulations to Michela for the care and kindness towards the guests. Excellent breakfast, convenient internal parking. Beautiful view of Vieste. It is definitely a place to recommend, you feel like family.

Grazie di cuore Geo, è stato un piacere conoscervi. Spero di rivedervi ancora al giardino stellato. Michela.

lucio

We only stayed for four days, but we had a great time. The structure is very pleasant and meticulously detailed (they don't go unnoticed). You really feel pampered and surrounded by a lot of romance. Michela was very helpful with us, kind and caring to all our requests, doubts, and perplexities. She helped make our stay better. It feels natural to come back, and most likely we will return. Alas, next year, I fear!

Michela is a wonderful Host. She provided us with the best restaurant and activity recommendations. We were therefore able to see Vieste antico borgo, and by boat the beautiful grottos and beaches, and able to have the best seafood and the best local dishes in our short two night visit. Breakfast is extensive and even while a little cold in early May, the terrace gets sun in the morning and is a great setting. All of the homemade breakfast offerings are fully explained and their ingredients listed. All of the herbs and plants of the garden are identified. We walked from here to Vieste and were concerned at first with the steep walk back from town. But we walked slowly back and the exercise was good for us, of course. We have had many good experiences at B and B in Italy and this was one of the best.

stayed from 05/10/2019 to 05/12/2019

marina

We were pleasantly impressed by the friendliness and hospitality of Michela, as well as by the particularity of the structure, of which the attention to detail cannot go unnoticed. The distance from the historic center is negligible, both because after enjoying the delicious local dishes, a little walk is not bothersome, and because from the B&B you can enjoy a spectacular view. Super breakfast, thanks to the variety of homemade sweets offered. We would gladly return! Thank you Michela!

stayed from 04/25/2019 to 04/26/2019

Grazie Marina, è stato un piacere conoscervi, peccato per poco. Spero comunque di rivedervi presto qui, oppure a Trieste. Vi aspetto, Michela.

Michela is an exquisite host, full of attentions and a source of excellent advice and she's also a great pastry chef. The structure is beautiful, well-maintained, in a hilly position, however the beaches are reachable on foot in about 20 minutes.

We were so pampered by Michela last year in September, that we decided to come back for another 10 days, a wonderful holiday in her lovely B&B. Unforgettable breakfasts in her botanical garden, among olive and lemon trees, delighted our palates with her fantastic cakes, prepared every day with such care and love. Without her valuable advice, we wouldn't have found fantastic, lesser-known beaches, where we could relax and swim in crystal clear waters. We were in Polynesia a few years ago and I assure you that the beaches of Vieste have nothing to envy, the sea has fantastic colors. Thanks to Michela's help, we dined in excellent restaurants, one in particular, will always remain in our hearts, Trabucco da Mimì in Peschici, a fantastic restaurant with a spectacular sunset view and excellent cuisine. Our advice, if you decide to visit Gargano, go to Vieste, but above all, go to Michela's at Il Giardino Stellato di Michela. Over the years, we have traveled quite a bit, we never stay in hotels, we prefer B&Bs and for us Il Giardino Stellato is the best of all, because people make the difference and Michela is a wonderful person, not only taking care of the cleanliness and details of her rooms, Michela goes far beyond simple B&B management, with spectacular breakfasts, sweets made by her every day, and all the good advice that will make your vacation unforgettable. If you are planning your holidays in Gargano, you absolutely must go to her B&B.

An enchanted and charming glimpse overlooking the beautiful Vieste. A hostess who not only did not miss anything, from valuable advice on parking, restaurants, pizzerias, to original and delightful breakfasts: who wouldn't want to start a Sunday morning with a charge as greedy and simple as that in Michela's B&B? Elegant and cared for in every detail, every piece of furniture, every object speaks of her passion for the work she does and the creativity with which she brings her starry garden to life every day.

Lovely Bed and Breakfast in Vieste, The Starry Garden of Michela, Michela, with her sister and parents, manage their Bed and Breakfast with the utmost care and hospitality. Very useful all the advice on the beaches to visit, places and restaurants to frequent. Also the affiliated beach was very beautiful and well organized. Excellent homemade cakes for the morning breakfast. The Bed and Breakfast is in a quiet location, where you can relax and sleep without noise... in a moment you can reach both the city and the sea. Michela has always been extremely available to us, for any need. Highly recommended!

daniele

The best Bed and Breakfast I have found so far. Meticulously cared for in every detail (even the scented bathroom), with the utmost attention from the owner Michela, who goes to great lengths to solve every problem. The breakfast is enriched with sweets made by the owner. It deserves more than the 4-star hotel I have visited. The cost of the Bed and Breakfast also includes an umbrella and 2 beach loungers plus parking for the car at the beach. The only negative point is the last 100 meters of ascent to get there.

Quiet hillside location, with private parking closed by automatic gate. From the garden to the small terrace where you have an excellent breakfast in the morning with genuine products from the garden (fruits like prickly pears) and with homemade cakes by Michela (the owner: the apple cake is excellent), you can enjoy a great view of the sea and the center of the town of Vieste perched on the sea. Michela always very kind and attentive to the needs of the guests is very prepared to provide support and information on excursions, on places, on what to do and where, on the best places to eat and what to avoid. Clean rooms with TV and fridge (air conditioning on request) and the price includes many additional services that I greatly appreciated such as bikes and beach with umbrella, sunbed, deck chair and parking in front. It is only 2 km from the city center which can be reached on foot in 20/25 minutes for the "fit" ones (steep climb to reach the B&B) and has an optimal position to reach many beaches and places of interest such as the “Foresta Umbra” in a short time and short distances by car. Highly recommended.

Truly lovely! Careful, intimate, romantic but at the same time young and practical! The ideal compromise for those who do not want to give up the comforts of a modern hotel but are looking for a familiar and intimate environment! Very clean, comfortable and stylishly furnished. Also in terms of services, nothing was missing! Highly recommended! Excellent especially for those who intend to go by car (the uphill to the B&B requires it!) and visit the various beaches that the Gargano coast offers given the optimal position to reach the most popular destinations! If we return to Puglia, we will definitely not miss Michela's apple pie!
