Description

The Antico Frantoio Bed & Breakfast arises from the idea of providing moments of relaxation and enjoyable sunsets to those who wish to spend days in one of the most beautiful and characteristic locations in the province of Bari, Puglia.

Located on the coast of the marvelous Polignano a Mare, the B&B has been created within an ancient olive oil mill, preserving the original walls and the distinctive stone arches, blending the taste of the past with modern innovations.

Everything perfect. Beautiful room with daily cleaning. Located less than 5 minutes walk from the historic center, in a partially pedestrian street full of small restaurants. Gerardo is very nice and very kind. Excellent value for money. Absolutely recommended! Thank you Gerardo!

I have to say that my wife and I had a great time due to the clever location (away from noise) but in the center and with easy parking. Do not hesitate because the manager is helpful.

I cannot rate the manager as I could not meet him; over the phone, he was courteous. I give a 6 only to continue with the survey. Beautiful structure, breakfast at the affiliated bar is not exceptional but pleasant. The only sore point is not being able to use a credit card and the person who comes to collect the cash is lacking a receipt or payment invoice.

We had a great time, excellent location, just missing a big mirror, sunbeds on the wonderful terrace, thanks for the courtesy and kindness.

Truly fabulous apartment! The owner has preserved the walls of the ancient oil mill, adding some modern touches to the decor. We also found out that a daily cleaning of the entire apartment + towel change was included in the price, impeccable service! And it was located right in the heart of charming Polignano a Mare. Congratulations to the manager!
