"This hotel was very nice during our stay it was not as crowded as we expected. Breakfast was better than expected. A nice large property to wander around good sized pool with lots of different types of seating/lounging It is an easy stroll to the pier. Our room was comfortable and clean. It was a bit dated but it seems they are upgrading the property bit by bit. Friendly staff. "

"I've just come back from a fantastic week at Voi Daniela Essentia and already thinking of booking for next year. The resort was busy but quiet. It never looked crowded which made the holiday a lot more relaxing. The rooms are spacious and the beds are extremely comfortable and really big in size, possibly a uk queen size if not bigger. The pillows are slightly too thick for my likings but that did not spoil my sleeps! The resort is spotless! There is a great selection of food. We opted for half board. Although, one evening we went out for dinner and the hotel switched the dinner for the lunch, super accommodating. On the last day, we checked out at 3am and were given a very generous breakfast to go! Croissant, jams, french toasts, biscuits, an apple and some water! The staff is really friendly. There are plenty of sport activities during the day (yoga, aquagym, muscle awekening, padel, football, volleyball) and a different show every evening. My boys enjoyed the mini club too. There is also a photographer. The gym could do with a revamp but you find all the basics (dumbells, running nachine etc..). There is a train managed by the hotel which takes you from the hotel to the beach and we could also use the 2 local electric cars/trains. The alternative is to walk which is also very pleasant. 1-2km walk, absolutely fine to do. The hotel provides 1 set of beach towels per person for free, they can be returned and exchanged for 2€. We had an amazing time!"

"Beautiful views, excellent location, and outstanding service. I will definitely come back and highly recommend this hotel!"

"This is a fantastic resort. The food is a very high quality. The staff are excellent, they are so helpful and friendly. The rooms are spacious and quiet. The grounds of the resort are really well maintained and beautiful. The beach is superb! Thoroughly recommended "

"We really enjoyed our stay here, the staff were very welcoming and friendly throughout our stay. We don’t usually choose half board but we are glad we did! The first night there was a buffet in the garden, of local food, this was the best buffet I have ever had, everything was so fresh and tasty and there was lots of vegetarian choice. We ate off the a la carte menu our other 2 nights, which again was amazing food, with lots of choice, as was breakfast. The pool area is lovely and the hotel is only a 10 minute drive to the lovely town of Otranto. We had a standard room, the only criticism is the bathroom could do with a bit of an update, the shower wasn’t great with poor pressure if you had it on warm. There was live music and dancing one night and we enjoyed the tour of the underground Oil Mill and Olive Oil Tasting which was provided by the hotel. "

"This was one of my favorite places in Puglia! The lady at the front desk was so welcoming and warm. The room was gorgeous as well as the grounds. The breakfast was spectacular… it had everything including very freshly cut up fruit. The cappuccino machine made amazing coffee. The location was walkable to everything. She recommend a restaurant for dinner with fabulous views and was only a 5 minute walk. This was a very last minute booking and was a very good value. I will definitely return. "

"Great stay. Super attentive staff. Much better than all the surrounding “homes” for rent in the area. Everything was available there, food, parking, clean room, services. Everything!!!"

"Our stay at Masseria Bandino & Spa was wonderful! The check-in process was quick and the woman checking us in was very helpful. The room was nice and spacious with a great air conditioning. Just outside our room was a little sitting area which was a great place to have our morning coffee. The pool area is beautiful and open to guests 24 hours a day! It was the perfect place to relax after a busy day. We greatly enjoyed our stay!"

"Beautiful property. Amazing staff and Management. The Pasta (Spaghetti with Anchovy Cherry Tomatoes and Basile), Lamb Chops and Negroamaro Wine at the onsite Restaurant was exceptional. Looking forward to a return trip"

"Great location!"

"wunderschöne Lage, sehr gutes Essen, das Meer ein Traum und die Anlage sehr gepflegt"

"Beautiful view, great rooms, lounge, bar and restaurants great."

"I really enjoyed the food — it offered a good variety, including options for vegan and celiac diets. The staff was very nice, and I’d like to give special mention to the animators and especially the gentleman making pizza on the beach. He was extremely kind and went out of his way to accommodate my sister‑in‑law’s celiac needs. On the downside, I didn’t like the room. It had a strong damp smell, and there was no conditioner available. The quality of the soap and shampoo was very poor and almost impossible to use. The coffee at breakfast was also disappointing — it came from a machine and was horrible. Being in Italy, I was expecting a real espresso."

"Beautiful hotel with great service. Room with large and had an incredible fresco ceiling. We could not have been happier with our stay there"

"Excellent location, clean and staff very helpful"

"I like envying this hotel Rooms very nice looking restaurant food is amazing Hotel is very close to the excellent beach Staff is very supportive "

"Perfect place to stay at perfect price"

"Loved the entire property. Nice rooms, pool, parking, and breakfast. There were 2 large groups staying there so they needed to figure out the dining a bit better. A group of 100 and another 35 were there so they set up for dinner for them and forgot about the other 10-12 guests but eventually ( once said we needed a place too) set up some tables outside for us."

"Excellent, place, hotel, staff, like being in a museum."

"Bad condition of property. "

"Oh my word! Amazing, I Booked this property only because of its location. From the lobby displaying vintage vehicles, and antiques, as well as local artisan creations. To the grounds that were immaculately maintained. Entering the room itself was also an experience, very modern, very simple, very elegant. We asked about the lovely scent of the room, “simply the cleaning products we use, all natural.” And the breakfast, 360 degrees of wonderful fruit, pastries, and savoury goodness. Traveling late in the season we unfortunately were informed the restaurant had closed for the season, I am certain it would have been worth a visit. "
