Relais Masseria Le Cesine - CDSHotels

Hello I've just made a booking for July 2025 for 10 nights. How can we request an airport shuttle bus to and from Bari? I see this can be done by request, any help would be appreciated. Can't wait, looks absolutely beautiful! Many thanks Holly Evans

I am just lying by the relax pool waiting for our 5pm transfer (after another fantastic lunch) and it’s bliss. We were a family group of 9 on the area for a family wedding and so decided to stay in for a week all inclusive at (for us) a perfect resort. Having read a few previous reviews I will agree that this is definitely a Italian hotel geared for Italians. Everything is in Italian all the food is Italian, drinks italian, entertainment Italian, timetable of day Italian but then we are in Italy!!! The staff have been AMAZING with us. The entertainment team were such fun and made us feel so welcome and included in all activities. They really made a effort to get to know us and Integrate us with all the Italian guests (I heard one English couple and a French couple everyone else Italian) special welcome to Mateo ! The level of English amongst staff is mixed but it’s way better than my Italian (almost no existent) but that didn’t matter because everyone tried their best to communicate with us and we had no issues at all. There are enough staff who speak good English if you need something and everyone else is just so friendly and tries their best . The Food, WOW!! Every meal was incredible, yes it’s all Italian (no curry night or Chinese ha) but that is what we wanted and the quality and taste is amazing . I actually thought I knew Italian food but there has been so many amazing new dishes and flavours on offer. We also liked how although it’s a buffet it’s served to you and so you don’t end up with random concoctions of food. All the food links up to make a great meal (the wine is average though in my opinion). The pizza on offer twice a day made by a true pizza master was so good. All waiting staff are professional and friendly as well as the bar staff and you can’t go wrong with peroni on draft and the aperol spritz . We also really enjoyed the special aperatif’s and the live singer. Rooms are nice and clean, decent size. We stayed in the Cesine in room 248 and this was a great room for us. Definitely a hotel for families as the vast majority of people had children (we were with 4) and so for us this was perfect. It is isolated but we had done our research and knew this. We just wanted to be together as a family, have some fun, relax, eat well and we couldn’t have have done this in a better place. I didn’t know much about Italian social culture before this trip and thanks to our brilliant experience I want to know more and will definitely be returning to Italy and probably to another hotel from the same chain (to try something different) but thankyou to all staff for a amazing holiday. My only area of critique would be that although we loved the Thursday and Saturday dance shows on a evening and the Friday sports night we couldn’t really understand or access the evening entertainment as it included lots of talking in Italian that we couldn’t follow. We would have liked at least a little translation on this or even just more He
