Villa Mandorle is a very comfortable , well equipped house. The pool is excellent and well maintained.It overlooks a green valley just outside Cisternino.
The beds are comfortable and the air conditioning very efficient.
It is well positioned to visit Matera, Alberobello and Ostuni and there are beaches within 30 minutes drive.
We very much enjoyed our stay and would definitely recommend the villa and Puglia.
Villa Mandorle is a lovely villa set in the hills outside Cisternino ( 10 min drive). We are a family of 5 adults and everyone got its space to rest and relax. The house has the most beautiful views. The pool is wonderful. The house is very comfortable and very well equipped, with good bedroom accommodation. Every room has its air conditioner, which is important in july!. A very spacious new kitchen with the touch of Italian architecture. The owner was very kind , and Martin , the manager, answered any questions very promptly. We spend 7 great days, relaxing at the garden, visiting many villages of Puglia (that are less than 1,30 hour away) and eating great food.Would highly recommend this property to couples or families who want a very comfortable, relaxed break but with perfect access to the wonderful surrounding area. Cisternino is, in my opinion the most beautiful town in de Istria valley.

wonderful relaxing time.
This was my second stay in Villa Mandorle, the first being before the new building. The first stay was lovely and I would have happily returned, but since the extension the place has been transformed.
The new kitchen area has completely opened up the house giving it so much living space making holidaying with a large family very comfortable. I would also like to say that if you have never visited you would not know it had been extended as it has been done so well and in keeping with the original property !
The grounds of the property are beautiful and pool area just lovely with plenty of loungers. The property is very well stocked so you are never running out of things
The surrounding area offers some really lovely walks and once in the car there are many gorgeous towns and villages to visit, Go on market day as you'll get all you need there.
All in all I had a fantastic holiday and would recommend Villa Mandorle to anyone. Thank you you 😄

Thank you for your review Vicky .im so pleased you like our new kitchen .i also love visiting the markets not only for delicious vegetables ,cheese and meat but I've bought lots of beautiful linen clothes too at absolute bargain prices too !

We travelld in a group with 8 friends really liked the our stay in the fewo. We loved the lovely swimmingpool, the sitting area outside in front of the house, the rooftop, the well equiped kitchen, the mosquito nets in the windows and doors, the air conditioning in the bedrooms. The communication with the owner and our correspondence in Italy was very friendly and promptly. We would definitely come back! Thank you for everything! :)

Perfect place and holiday in august
Villa: perfect location and equipment for 2 families of 4. Beautiful view. Peaceful. Best quality price ratio.
Stay: in the heart of the valley of itria with so many things to see and less than 1h30 drive of the main places to visit in puglia (lecce,matera, polignano, ...)
Puglia: we adored! Food, landscape, history, beaches, ... everything is perfect and even in the middle of august not crowded. Hurry up before it is too late!

The best of both worlds
The most beautiful tranquil setting in rural Italy yet only a short drive to the nearest town that has absolutely everything you may require. The villa is very comfortable and homely and a real touch of Italian architecture. The outside area and pool is very pretty and spacious. Inside the villa it is furnished to a high standard with everything you would have at home. The owner gave a first class level of care and attention to our stay and answered any questions very promptly. We were certainly made to feel very welcome in what feels like a home from home. Would highly recommend this property to couples or families who want a very comfortable, relaxed break but with perfect access to the wonderful surrounding area. Local markets a plenty with fresh food and wine and prices are so low you can really budget if need be but will not scrimp on the standard. We would highly recommend this villa and will be returning again for another piece of Italian tranquility.

Fantastic from booking, arrival and throughout
Multo Bellisimo! Grazie Milli for everything. The holiday started with such a fantastic and very helpful Ali, who clearly wants your time in her home to be the very best it can be. She is very happy to help and no question is too much trouble.
The Villa Mondorle is fully equipped and in the most idyllic setting with views to die for. We had great fun around the swimming pool which was beautifully clean and in an amazing spot. You can just relax and unwind from the pressures of life at home.
Puglia is a fabulous area to discover with happy welcoming people, spectacular scenery, meandering roads that lead you to exciting towns where you can watch the world go by with the odd prosecco or two! Just bliss and we will definitely be back for more - thank you - fabulouso

Tranquil Villa, close by to lovely Cisternino town
We stayed for four days towards the end of September, and it was a fantastic break.
The property itself is very traditionally styled in keeping in with the surrounding area. It was clean, and everything seemed new.
Inside was spacious, with a large living room and kitchen/dining room. The property had all the modern facilities you could need (WiFi, washing machine etc).
The outside is where we spent most of our time, enjoying the pool area and patio areas for lunches and breakfasts (two areas for this, which was nice).
The location itself was extremely peaceful, no noise or light pollution in the evening. Fantastic night sky!
A car is a must if you want to get out and about, a highlight was the Cisternino town (5 minutes away). Authentic restaurants all over the town, and all very reasonably priced.
Highly recommended, and would visit again.

Beautiful villa, fantastic location
We have just spent a fantastic few days at Villa Mandorle, and I only wish we could have stayed longer! The house itself is beautiful and comes with everything you could need for a break in the sun, including wifi, dishwasher and washing machine.
House aside, we fell instantly in love with the lifestyle Villa Mandorle has to offer: our days started with breakfast outside on the patio, followed by a trip into Cisternino (~10 mins drive, you need a car) to pick up food from the local market and wander through its picturesque streets and alleyways. When we got back we would have a light lunch and then make the most difficult decision of the day: whether to spend the afternoon relaxing by the pool or down by the local beach (~20 mins drive). The decision wasn't made any easier by the gorgeous views one gets lounging by the pool, nor the presence of a second gazebo! We typically headed back into Cisternino for dinner - there are countless local trattorias, ristorantes, masserias and pizza places to choose from and you won't go far wrong whichever you go to. One particular highlight was the tiny crepe shop tucked away down a little alley; another was Bar FOD underneath the clock tower in the main square.
Ali was very helpful in the run up to our holiday and answered all our questions promptly, while the woman who greeted us on arrival (apologies - I forgot her name!) did a great job of showing us all the practical stuff one needs to know. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Villa Mandorle to a friend and hope I can come back here again.

Peace with a view
This is a lovely villa set in the hills outside Cisternino ( 10 min drive). The location has the most amazing views in a totally quiet setting, even the pool has a wonderful view. The house is very comfortable with good bedroom accommodation set off an openplan, very spacious new kitchen/diner and large sitting area. Great place to cook and then eat on the amazing terrace.
The bedrooms are all well furnished and comfortable.

Brilliant ,spacious,kitchen amazingly equipped
Where do I begin?3 generations of our family stayed over a 2 week period..Met near the house by Coleen,arrived at the house ,an enormous hamper of food was waiting for us including wine.
A car is definately need the house is very secluded ,the pool is a little distant from the house.
Ali,Colleen arranged a cook for us on 3 days,brilliant to get back from a trip to have the food all prepared and cooked.
The area is magical,so much to see.
The only negative was it was very hot at night ,a few more fans would have helped .The 4 bedrooms entrance is separate from the house ,perfect for Grandparents or older children.
We really hope to go again next year

beautiful property, very nice owner and onsite support
I rented the villa in summer 2013 for a week. We are a family of 6 and it is quite hard for us to find a house with enough space. This villa was perfect: 3 bedrooms (2 bedrooms with 1 king bed each + 1 bedroom with 2 twin beds) and 2 bathrooms. Plus there was another detached bedroom with bathroom, perfect for a guest.
The house has also a beautiful patio and an outdoor oven plus a great swimming pool. The surrounding are just peaceful: the villa is immersed in a very quiet olive tree and almond tree plantations.
The thing that I actually liked most was the really nice owner (she sent me various email with explanations and more pics of the property) and the onsite support from a real estate agent (a very nice guy who showed up with a welcome basket when we arrived - the grocery stores were closed so he took care that we had something to eat for dinner in case we were too tired to go out -and fresh croissants when we left plus he was very helpful with suggerstions - like were to find a grocery store- and actual support - we had a tire down).
It was my first time renting a house and I was honestly a little bit scared but the owner was so nice and willing to give me all the info that I needed before that I trusted her. And I was right. Thank you Allison and thank you Francesco. I will come back for sure.

Wonderful stay in charming villa near Cisternino.
Had a delightful stay in a very well equipped and spotless villa with a lovely pool. The setting was very serene and peaceful with wonderful views and yet was so close to so many of the delightful small towns in the area, e.g. Cisternino, Alberobello and Ostuni to name a few, all with wonderful restaurants.
I would certainly return to this unspoiled area of Puglia and have no hesitation in recommending it to other holiday-makers.

idyllic puglia
extremely comfortable villa property with all mod cons, as well as generous bedrooms and bathrooms, leading out to a pictoresque pagola which provided a wonderful place for all meals. the property is surrounded by nature and as you wonder through the gardens leads to a second pagola which in turn leads to a very inviting swimming pool.. not only does one get a real sense of nature but also of wonderful italian treats, historical as well as culinary, which are only 10 to 15 mins away by car! a very relaxing holiday, came back totally rejuvinated! my impression of the property was that it was extremely well maintained and cleaned and would certainly recommend this to friends and family. we visited cistenino, ostuni, and surroundings and found the restaurants and service impeccable.

A wonderful stay in the hills near Cisternino
This is a beautiful peaceful property with stunning views.
To wake up to glorious sunshine, breakfast on the terrace with spectacular views over the olive groves and wild flowers is my idea of heaven.
Although completely quiet villa Mandorle is only an 8 min drive to the pretty town of Cisternino where you can find lovely shops and great restaurants including Sant' Anna where you must taste the Antipasti, wow. There are plenty of places to visit, but we especially enjoyed Ostuni and Alberobello.
Its lovely to return for a swim in the glorious pool later on in the afternoon.
For those who like beaches, 20 minutes brings you to the coast.
I can't wait to go back
