Guests enjoyed the property's ample outdoor spaces, indoor and outdoor pools, and comfortable accommodations. The hosts' responsiveness and personal touches, such as a welcoming meal and local recommendations, added to the memorable experience.

The villa is consistently described as clean and well-maintained. One review mentions an additional cleaning service during the week, indicating a high standard of cleanliness.
The villa's location is appreciated for its quietness, surrounded by olive trees, with proximity to Ostuni and local amenities. The scenic and peaceful setting contributes to the positive reviews.
Guests found the beds super comfortable and the presence of heating units and air-conditioning ensured a pleasant stay regardless of the weather. The property's spaciousness also added to the overall comfort.
The villa is well-equipped with indoor and outdoor pools, an outdoor kitchen, and a pizza oven. The availability of Netflix and the provision of a fan for a guest's unwell child show attention to guest needs. However, the mention of a water pressure issue, which was promptly resolved, slightly impacts the score.
The hosts' thoughtfulness is evident through their warm welcome, prepared meals, and attentive support. Gifts such as a travel cot and a bottle of Prosecco were mentioned, reflecting the hosts' generosity, though such gestures are unique to the guests' experiences and not guaranteed.

In October 2023, I and several friends had the pleasure and adventure of a weeklong stay at Trulli Posidone, located about a 10 minute drive from Ostuni in a quiet area of private residences each surrounded by olive tree orchards and the most beautiful low stone walls that populate so much of Puglia. The location was perfect for us; we had rental cars and toured various communities each day meeting up in the evenings to sample restaurants in Ostuni. This property accommodated two in our group who needed a quiet space to do a little work while on holiday in the two-bedroom downstairs house, and hosted the rest of us in the upper house which contains three bedrooms plus kitchen, bathrooms, dining and living rooms and the wonderful indoor pool. We especially enjoyed the outdoor areas - spacious terraces, dining tables, outdoor furniture, beautiful views and space to relax. Since the weather in October was a little cool in the evenings, we didn't have a chance to enjoy the outdoor swimming pool but did appreciate the heating units located in each bedroom to take the chill off the early mornings. Trulli of Stars has long been a family home, with the owners just a short distance away. When we had an issue with water pressure, the owners immediately had it taken care of. Since we were interested in sampling the cuisine of Puglia in area restaurants, we used the kitchens primarily for breakfasts and snacking. An early highlight of our time at this property was the dinner the hosts prepared at our request for the day we arrived since we were all arriving at different times and methods. The food was great and even better was the hospitality of the hosts who toured us through the property, arranged a welcome table of food and drinks, and were gracious and enthusiastic in welcoming us to their family property. They were responsive, helpful, and warm - an unexpected feature of our stay.

Just had the most amazing 10 days stay at Trulli Posidone. The Trulli was clean and comfortable and had everything we required. The outside kitchen and bbq and pizza oven were fab there are so many lovely seating areas and the pools are fantastic. Our host was a god send - nothing was too much trouble, so helpful, we would have been lost without him. Would definitely return.

We had a fabulous time at Trulli Posidone and it was made even better by the fantastic support that was given to us by the owner and the welcomer. Nothing was too much for them to do for us. The owner facilitated a brand new travel cot for our stay before our arrival. There was a lovely meal waiting for us after our late arrival and the host not only booked and recommended so many fantastic restaurants and activities, he also found a bottle of Prosecco that we loved in a restaurant so that we could bring some home. What a holiday, what a place.
