(Translated by Google) Very clean structure, large environment and complete with primary accessories and parking. But the cold environment, the poorly equipped kitchen, the unequipped terrace, it was not possible to exploit this environment. The owner, I don't even know their name, we saw him upon arrival. Excellent location for those who love tranquility and for those who love trekking, possibility of taking a walk along 2 beautiful paths and arriving at Cala del Ciolo, spectacular! Advised ! (Original) Struttura molto pulita, ambiente grande e completa di accessori primari e parcheggio . Ma ambiente freddo , la cucina poco accessoriata, terrazzo non attrezzato, non è stato possibile sfruttare questo ambiente. Il proprietario, non so neanche il loro nome, lo abbiamo visto all'arrivo. Ottima la posizione per chi ama la tranquillità e per chi ama il trekking, possibilità di fare una passeggiata in 2 sentieri bellissimi e arrivare alla cala del ciolo, spettacolare! Consigliato !
(Translated by Google) Staying at this B&B is like being part of the family. My sincere compliments to Giuseppe and the entire Quintino family. You are wonderful. (Original) Soggiornare in questo B&B è come sentirsi in famiglia. Veramente complimenti a Giuseppe e tutta la famiglia Quintino. Siete splendidi.
(Translated by Google) A well-maintained and immaculately clean property. Conveniently located for reaching the main towns, private parking is available. The fully equipped room offers every comfort, including a small fridge (stocked with complimentary bottles of water), air conditioning, a TV, a hairdryer, plenty of towels, and complimentary toiletries. Those who mention a basement apartment fail to understand that the land is sloping due to the topography of the town... in any case, the room has two large windows (the bathroom has a window) and is well-ventilated. The breakfast was excellent and plentiful, with pastries, fresh fruit, toast with various jams, a full bottle of juice, and careful attention was paid to guests with food intolerances (I'm celiac, and they provided gluten-free bread and biscuits, as well as Greek yogurt... I'm highlighting this because this aspect isn't always easy to find in other properties). They were also extremely helpful and found a quick solution even when we had a car problem. I highly recommend it and give it a thumbs up. (Original) Struttura curata e pulitissima. Posizione comoda a raggiungere le principali località parcheggio privato. Camera super accessoriata dotata di ogni comfort con piccolo frigo (dotato di bottigliette di acqua offerte dai proprietari), aria condizionata, tv, asciugacapelli, asciugamani in abbondanza, set di cortesia. Chi parla di uno scantinato non ha capito che il terreno è in pendenza proprio per la morfologia del paese...in ogni caso la camera gode di due ampie finestroni (il bagno è finestrato) e risulta ben ventilata. Ottima ed abbondante colazione con paste di pasticceria, frutta fresca, fette biscottate con marmellate varie, una bottiglia intera di succo e una sensibile attenzione anche ai soggetti con intolleranze (io sono celiaca mi hanno fatto trovare pane e biscotti senza glutine e yogurt greco...lo segnalo perché questo aspetto non è sempre facile da trovare in altre strutture. Disponibilissimi anche ad aiutarci e a trovare una soluzione immediata anche quando abbiamo avuto un problema con l'auto. Lo consiglio e lo promuovo a pieni voti.
(Translated by Google) In the heart of the village of Gagliano del Capo. Private parking. A few steps from all services and the "Sentiero del Collo" nature trail. Well-kept rooms and an overall modern structure. Excellent quality/price ratio. Courteous staff and plentiful breakfast. We'll be back! (Original) Nel cuore del borgo di Gagliano del capo. Parcheggio privato. A pochi passi da tutti i servizi e dal percorso naturalistico "Sentiero del Collo". Camere curatissime e struttura nel complesso moderna. Rapporto qualità/prezzo ottimo. Personale cortese e colazione abbondante. Torneremo!
(Translated by Google) Breathtaking view, spotless sea... The walk along the path between rocks and vegetation that hide trulli and caves is very pleasant!!! Parking is a bit scarce, it's not easy to park, but it's worth trying!!! It is not practical for those with strollers or someone with a wheelchair, unfortunately it is not practicable and I strongly ADVISE it... At the bottom of the stairs that lead to the path under the bridge there is a fantastic cove where you can dive or simply go for a swim but it is not a place to base yourself for relaxing in the sun, in fact most people are reckless. Speaking of parking: not everyone knows that in addition to the wild parking on the main road (what I said at the beginning), on the other side of the path there is another much larger car park, without a parking meter. You can look for it on Map's. Happy diving everyone!!! (Original) Vista mozzafiato,mare pulitissimo... Piacevolissima la passeggiata in mezzo al sentiero tra rocce e vegetazione che nascondono trulli e grotticelle!!! Parcheggio un po' scarso,non è facile parcheggiare,ma vale la pena provarci!!! Non è pratico per chi ha passeggini o qualcuno con la sedia a rotelle, purtroppo non è praticabile e lo SCONSIGLIO vivamente... In fondo ai scaloni che portano al sentiero sotto il ponte c'è una fantastica caletta dove si possono fare dei tuffi o semplicemente un bagno ma non è un posto dove fare base per rilassarsi al sole anzi vige la spericolatezza dei più. A proposito di parcheggio:non tutti sanno che oltre al parcheggio selvaggio sulla strada principale(quello che dicevo all'inizio), dall'altra parte del sentiero c'è un altro parcheggio ben più grande,senza parcometro.puoi cercarlo su Map's. Buon tuffo a tutti!!!
(Translated by Google) Nice place, canyon of a prehistoric river, with vertical walls (well known to those who climb), anciently inhabited caves (follow the path that starts from the canyon and continues along the coast towards Castro), interesting from a naturalistic point of view, the strong difference between aridity of the land at the top and will grow and vegetation on the valley floor; as for the sea... what can I say... ete lu mare te lu Salentu, blue and green water, rocks and caves. NOTE: the parking upstream, in Gagliano, is convenient and free, do not park illegally and above the bridge: (I don't give 5 stars due to the difficulty of access for disabled people. (Original) Bel posto, canyon di un fiume preistorico, con pareti verticali (ben note a chi fa arrampicata), grotte anticamente abitate (seguire il sentiero che parte dal canyon e prosegue lungo costa verso Castro), interessante dal punto di vista naturalistico la forte differenza tra aridità dei terreni in alto e crescerà e vegetazione sul fondovalle; per quel che riguarda il mare...che dire...ete lu mare te lu Salentu, acqua azzurra e verde, scogli e grotte. NOTA:il parcheggio a monte ,a Gagliano, è comodo e gratuito, non parcheggiate in divieto e sopra il ponte : ( Non do 5 stelle per le difficoltà di accesso per disabili.
(Translated by Google) A nature trail leading from the town of Gagliano to the marina, in the Ponte Ciolo area. From Via del Ciolo in Gagliano, after the Madonna di Leuca chapel, you'll reach a clearing with two trails. One crosses the canyon and at a certain point splits into two: one trail continues directly under the bridge, while the other leads sideways above, alongside the bridge, onto the Litoranea. The second trail, starting from the clearing, runs along the canyon's edge, also leading to the Litoranea, next to Gibó. (Original) Percorso naturalistico, che porta dal comune di Gagliano alla marina, località Ponte Ciolo. Da via del Ciolo a Gagliano , dopo la cappella Madonna di Leuca, si arriva ad una piazzola da cui partono due sentieri. Uno attraversa il canyon ed a certo punto si divide in due, un sentiero continua direttamente sotto il ponte e l'altro lateralmente porta sopra, a lato del ponte, sulla Litoranea. Il secondo sentiero che parte dalla piazzola scorre lungo la sponda del canyon che porta sempre sulla Litoranea, accanto al Gibó.

Lovely cove with warm sea water to swim in. We went mid August around 2pm. Was very hot (34 degrees), the best way to cool off from the heat is to get into the shallow waters. It was crowded but not extremely as I expected it after reading all the reviews and going peak season. There is no sand, all rocks leading to the water. You can leave your belongings on the side. If you want a bathing spot, then go bit earlier. Also walking into the water includes small rocks and few steps. I would advise if you have take/buy rock shoes. They will make it easier! We were surprised no small vendors were selling these as we were keen to buy. People were swimming with them on. Those who are comfortable with shallow water swimming, this is a great spot, and those who love a dive or cave exploring can go further out.
great, unique place. i really recommend to see by yourself.
Ponte Ciolo is a natural amphitheatre of stone and sea—cliff walls plunging into crystalline water, a bridge arching above, and swimmers weaving between caves. It’s both serene and electric, a place where ritual meets spectacle. Surely one of Salento’s treasures, and deserving of UNESCO recognition.
My favorite spot in Puglia - great for snorkeling and the amazing Bar Restaurant L'Incanto with great views
Just under the bridge is a small bay, surrounded by high rocks and a cave hidden underneath. The water is crystal clear and blue, and the whole place is simply magical! The pictures can not describe enough the beauty of this spot.
Beautiful place, the kind of stuff you see in a brochure and wonder where is that, I want to go there
A very beautiful and excitimg place to swim in.
A place to stop and enjoy the cliffs as part of the stunning coastline and perhaps have lunch too.

Great place for milk and cheese!
Best in the region for fresh milk, yogurt and yogurt drink , both plain and fruit flavored

You can see the quality of this product 🫶🏼 (Original) Excelente calidad de este yogur. Hay varios sabores, manzana y canela riquísimo. Si está cerrado no importa, hay una máquina para comprar.

(Translated by Google) Today we visited the Lattoria in San Dana in the province of Lecce. My son was thrilled to have seen the cows and we purchased yogurt and fresh milk directly from the vending machine outside the Lattoria, open 24 hours a day. Beautiful! (Original) Oggi abbiamo visitato la Lattoria a San Dana in provincia di Lecce. Mio figlio era entusiasta per aver visto le mucche e abbiamo acquistato yogurt e latte fresco direttamente dal distributore presente in Lattoria all'esterno, aperto 24 ore su 24. Bellissimo!
(Translated by Google) Another great discovery near Gagliano del Capo. I bought yogurt at the city market: delicious and very special. I then discovered the vending machine located in the company.

(Translated by Google) It is a wonderful company present in our territory. The fresh milk, the various types of yogurt and cheeses and much more are to be enjoyed to the full!!! An excellent idea is the vending machine placed outside the shop which, for a "distracted person", makes the products available practically 24 hours a day. Well done and congratulations for the excellent quality of your products. (Original) È una meravigliosa Azienda presente sul nostro territorio. Il latte fresco, i vari tipi di yogurt e formaggi e molto altro sono da gustare appieno!!!

Bravi e complimenti per la ottima qualità dei Vostri prodotti.

Beautiful trekking path from Novaglie to Ciolo. The caves have a spectacular view on the sea. It is not so hard to get there. If you go from Novaglie, the way is shorter but you will have to go for a steeper path at the beginning.
Worth the 10 minutes or so to scramble down the path for a great view across the sea. You won't need climbing gear, but take care if you're not steady on your feet.
Impromptu hike along this southern Italian coastline, an unexpected pleasure, took under 2hrs to leisurely stroll around here
Beautiful 45 minute coast track off road from Navaglio to Cipolliane and back. Great coffee and granita. Good car parking at start of track.
Gorgeous spot for taking a dip
20min walk each way to grotto
Hard to find the sign, but very beautiful road!
Incredible place! Must see:)

(Translated by Google) The oil mill has been handed down for generations, the oil is produced with olives from local plants, from its own mill. In addition to traditional oil, you can also find delicious flavored oils. Really good. Advised! (Original) Il frantoio si tramanda da generazioni, l'olio è prodotto con olive da piante locali, di propria frantoiatura. Oltre all'olio tradizionale si trovano anche oli aromatizzati buonissimi. Davvero bravi. Consigliato!

Highly recommended! (Original) Abbiamo avuto il piacere di fare un breve tour del frantoio seguita da una degustazione dei loro prodotti. Un'esperienza gustosa e ricca di informazioni e scambi di idee e culture. Consigliatissimo!
(Translated by Google) A family-run oil mill with exceptional products sold both online and on site: and it is precisely the visit to their oil mill, the tasting of their oils and the stories and explanations of the owners that will make you love this oil even more. The passion that both put into their work - with an eye on the environment and the protection of the territory - is commendable. If you are in the area and are looking for a piece of Salento to bring home, stop by here: you will return home with beautiful memories and a delicious oil (among other things expertly packaged by Paola). (Original) Un frantoio a conduzione familiare con prodotti eccezionali venduti sia online che in loco: ed è proprio la visita al loro frantoio, la degustazione dei loro oli ed i racconti e le spiegazioni dei proprietari che vi faranno amare ancora di più questo olio. La passione che entrambi mettono nel loro lavoro - con un occhio di riguardo all'ambiente e alla tutela del territorio - è encomiabile. Se vi trovate in zona e cercate un pezzo di Salento da riportare a casa passate di qua: tornetere a casa con dei ricordi bellissimi ed un olio buonissimo (tra l'altro impacchettato con maestria da Paola).
(Translated by Google) We have been buying Carlo and Paola's products for years now. Excellent oil. Flavored cans are an excellent idea (also for small gifts to bring to friends or relatives). Not to mention the pâté... The passion that accompanies their work is evident. (Original) Ormai acquistiamo i prodotti di Carlo e Paola da anni. Olio eccellente. Ottima idea (anche per piccoli doni da portare ad amici o parenti) le lattine degli aromatizzati. Per non parlare del patè... È evidente la passione che accompagna il loro lavoro.
(Translated by Google) The oil mill produces oil with seriousness and professionalism, respecting current regulations. ONLY olives from the surrounding area are used, this is important to have a HIGH quality indigenous product. I have been buying from them for years, Paola & Carlo, owners of the company, are competent people. Their packaging has evolved over the years and they are increasingly attentive to "respecting nature". Possibility of making shipments which are monitored, in order to always provide timely traceability.P (Original) Il frantoio produce olio, con serietà e professionalità, rispettando le norme vigenti. Vengono utilizzate SOLO olive del territorio circostante ad esso, questo è importante per avere un prodotto autoctono di ALTA qualità.

(Original) L'olio di Piana del Lentisco è un'eccellenza pugliese, dal gusto delicato ma al contempo deciso e caratteristico delle terre salentine. Esalta i sapori di ogni portata, dalla carne al pesce, ma è particolarmente sfizioso anche sulle crudité di verdure. Ottimo anche il rapporto qualità/prezzo. Da provare assolutamente!

Hotel
Sights & Landmarks
Genteel hotel in a 19th-century palace offering dining, a sauna & an outdoor pool.
Slide 1 of 8
Palazzo Daniel is a generational family home converted into “hotel”. It has large rooms with minimal air conditioning and a widow for a tv. The canvas sheets and towels seem to be the same as the grandparents used to use 20 year’s ago. They are rough and tough. The kitchen is open with a friendly staff. When dinning be sure to leave extra time and enjoy the 15-20 minute waits to get a menu, order, and a bill. The food is good but watch out for the burnt cappacinos milk.
The hotel is an ancient family home transformed in hotel. We stayed there but found it lacking and way overpriced. The town is not your picturesque puglian town. It’s a rather non-descript small village. While the palazzo pretends to be the main attraction it lacks in ambiance - they claim it is minimalist but it’s rather bare- and structure for the price they charge. There’s no gym - if I’d be interested and no other amenities and the pool is cold. The food is not spectacular but overpriced. Breakfast costs 40 euros per person (way way out of range even for hotels of this category) and lunch is a scant pasta plus salad and you pay 90+ euros (the food in the village in the tip of the boot is way way better and half the price). Because of their we decided to leave early and they did not respect the modified reservation made thru Marriott. They were not full so it would make no difference unless the purpose was to keep our money. Do NOT recommend it.
I paid premium rates for a room at Palazzo Daniele expecting the bathroom shown in the listing. The photos and description were misleading: the actual bathroom is completely different, with the shower located down a flight of stairs in a separate room — something never disclosed in the booking. To make matters worse, there are no photos of this type of bathroom on the hotel’s own website either, so there was no way for me to anticipate what I was actually booking. The bathroom we received was reminiscent of a U.S. roadside motel, with the level of cleanliness, the poor appearance, and harsh, scary lighting that made it feel like a dingy basement. The hotel even admitted the photos online were wrong (blaming a booking partner), yet refused to offer any fair resolution. Sadly, the problems didn’t stop there. The room itself had multiple issues: • Electrical problems and lights not working properly • Incorrect WiFi information provided at check-in • Dirty floors with a visible layer of dust that transferred onto our luggage, shoes, and feet • No luggage stands provided (I later requested them and was only given three for five pieces of luggage) What made this experience even worse was the complete lack of management response. Despite raising these issues during my stay, no manager ever came to speak with me, apologize, or attempt to remedy the situation. I saw the manager several times on the property, but they avoided me entirely — never acknowledging me or addressing the concerns. When the booking platform contacted the hotel on my behalf, the manager still refused to do anything. At this price point, the bare minimum expectation is attentive service and accountability when things go wrong. Instead, I received misrepresentation, a poorly maintained room, and dismissive treatment. Until this hotel corrects its listings, fixes basic maintenance and cleanliness, and trains management to actually respond to guests, I would strongly caution others against booking here. All such a shame because the property is pretty and the surrounding town has a charm I would have normally enjoyed.
Palazzo Daniele was such a dream. We spent four days there and they were all so relaxing and wonderful. I felt like I was home at my family’s house for Christmas. I know that’s weird to say, but my second day there, I was working in one of the common areas on my laptop. The common area is like a big living room where all the guests eat their meals. It’s next door to the open kitchen where Paola and team are cooking delicious food all day. So I’m working, and all of the sudden someone brings me a bowl of fruit and some carrot cake. I really felt at home ❤️ everyone is so extremely nice. As I said, the kitchen is open to grab a piece of fruit or have someone make you a quick espresso. The relaxed vibe is incredible. I loved having dinner in the common room at the elegant table settings near the fireplace. The food is home cooked Puglian and should not be missed. I’ll attach some photos, but the tiramisu is the best I’ve ever had. While I was there I also booked a massage with the wonderful Emanuela. The massage was perfect on my sore traveling muscles and back. They even pressed my husband’s shirt last minute before we had to leave. Seriously, I felt like I was at my family home! (If my family home was a palazzo) Thank you so much to Fabio and Paola and everyone else’s name who I can’t remember. You guys have built something really special! Edited to mention how comfortable the bed was. I slept for like 9 hours straight one night.
Be very careful when booking this hotel! We were going to book one of their suites and the price was $2330 for 4 nights. We called to ask if they had a 2nd one available and they said yes and they will email us the details. When they emailed us the details, the raised the price of the suite by 1,000 EUR! Then tried to tell us well this is just automated by the system. I have never heard of such a thing. The time difference between us calling and the price going up was 2 hours. So it just happened that in those 2 hours the price magically went up 1,000 EUR once they knew we wanted to book 2 rooms. The person's name we spoke to was Stefano and I'm almost certain he raised the prices on the site to squeeze more money from us.
Incredible space! The staff are so warm and welcoming, the space is minimalist but retaining its original charm from the 1800s, and the food is made with locally sourced and fresh ingredients. It’s not your typical hotel but if you’re looking for a more authentic experience in comfort this is your spot .
Exceptional place! Palazzo Deniele is absolutely stunning – everything is beautiful, stylish, and full of character. The service is excellent, attentive yet discreet. It’s the kind of place where you immediately feel comfortable and want to come back again. Truly unforgettable experience!
Excellent service. It is a very unique experience and not in the middle of a bustling city (like in Lecce) so the experience is very much relaxing on the grounds. Very meticulously restored architecture, and gorgeous minimalist details.
