Domenico
Perched on a hillside, the B&B Mandorla Amara is a charming farmhouse immersed in the Apulian countryside. Surrounded by vineyards and olive groves, it promises to be a special little heaven that excels in beautiful panoramic views incorporating the classical colors and perfumes of the Apulian landscape. Located in Gioia del Colle, on the Murgia plateau, the B&B Mandorla Amara features clean and cozy full furnished bedrooms with air-conditioned, Wi-Fi, beautiful garden view, and free private parking. A set of bycycles is freely available to our customers so to provide them with the unique opportunity to quietly enjoy the best of the most typical southern italian rural landscape. In the morning enjoy a typical Italian breakfast based on local products, fresh grown fruits and daily baked cakes. The B&B Mandorla Amara is the perfect choice if you are looking both for comforts and a cozy familiar atmosphere where relaxing is as easy as breathing.
We are sensitive to the impact our professional activities may have on the nature. Which is why we aim to offer our guests a stay that also safeguards Nature. Sustainability, recycling, LED technology, renewable energy, reduction of waste are some of our models of development that can help to minimize our impact in harmony with nature. Live the modern life while learning to treat our environment with respect and at the same time, to favor the local economy . We would love that our guests care about their surroundings and that they embrace our philosophy while staying with us.
The B&B Mandorla Amara, is in the center of Puglia, in a very strategic location a few km away from places of great charm renowned all over the world. Among the most interesting destinations that you can reach in a very short time we have: Castellana, famous for its caves, Noci, famous for its Gnostre and Putignano famous for its allegorical carnival. Only 30 kilometers away you can admire the wonderfull Trulli of Alberobello (UNESCO World Heritage centre) and stretching further than another 10 km, you can instead get to Locorotondo where through a large natural balcony you can admire the whole Itria valley. The clear waters of the Adriatic offers stunning fishing villages like Polignano a Mare and Monopoli and miles of extraordinary coastlines. The fabulous white limestone town of Ostuni, as well as the unique city of Matera (European Capital of Culture 2019)are also places not to be missed if you spend a holiday in our region. Puglia is a treasure trove of art, history, and nature. A land of sun and hospitality where you'll enjoy some truly unforgettable experiences.
