Our stay was absolutely perfect from start to finish! I truly cannot recommend enough. Antonio and Martina, Marrise…not sure of spelling…and staff did everything to make our stay warm and welcoming. If you have time do not miss out on their restaurant and wine… in almost two weeks in Italy … our top picks.

Il Palazzotto in Matera is an absolute GEM! From the breathtaking cave lobby and dining area to our spacious, beautifully decorated room, every detail was charming and elegant. Upon arrival, we were welcomed with a glass of Palazzo Zimara Susumaniello, so exquisite it was unforgettable! Breakfasts were delightful, the boutique rupestrian style combined with modern comforts and the incredible Sassi location, made our stay truly exceptional. Viviana, Irene, and Antonio’s warm, and impeccable hospitality completed a perfect experience. Thank you all!! We will wholeheartedly recommend this magical hotel to friends and family!

I would highly recommend Villa Puolo. The staff was outstanding! Enzo cooked for us one night and it was fabulous! Gessica helped us with taxis and our every need and Maria and Asunti treated us like family. There is a small marina right down the hill with cute restaurants, including La Taverna, which was a highlight.
