It's a nice property away from city's hussle & bussle, but the staff could be more courteous.

The venue has great potential with plenty of green spaces, comfortable rooms, private beach, etc.. but the way it is managed and the services provided let it down. It's generally well maintained but somehow gives you that feeling that so much more could be done with such a location and resources.
The rooms are confortable but the cleaning and maintenance could be improved. The toilet seat came off when I first touched it and it was never fixed during our 1 week stay.
Lovely private beach, easy to reach, not crowded, clean, well maintained and, with it's fairly shallow waters, perfect for families with children.
The SPA is clean and welcoming, it offers a variety of quality massages and treatments very reasonably priced but the staff deosn't speak a word of English and the instructions are in Italian only.
Good breakfast with plenty of choice always replenished but there is nothing provided on the tables other than the tablecloth. You need to get you own cutlery, paper napkins, plastic cups, etc.. which is a bit of a let down given the type of resort.
The beach bar is massively understaffed and struggles to cope with demand during in the evenings.
The beach restaurant has great views and good food but they charge €5 to cook/warmup baby food and €10 if you want them to add a little vegetable or tomato sauce to it which I think is a ripoff considering they are already charging plenty for the adults' meals.

Depends on what your idea of a resort is
If you are expecting something like a Miami resort, then forget it. Firstly there are lots of rules about where you can sit, where you can eat, where you can go and what you can do. If you’re not fluent in Italian you will discover this the hard way. Second the amenities and service are not what you would expect in a typical resort in the United States. Overall it’s a nice place with a beach that’s not overly crowded, but it’s very far out of the way from anything and not even the nicest beach in the area. That said there’s rules about where you can and can’t sit on the beach and rules about everything else for that matter. If you’re from the states and are expecting something like a Miami resort then your expectations will be unfulfilled to say the least. However if you’re looking for a nice quiet place that’s _very_ out of the way that you can relax with your family and you are used to the Italian idea of a resort then please book here. As for me I would rather pay as I go and take services on-demand rather that be unpleasantly surprised as I discover the limits Italian resorts. Finally I would make sure you have a good wireless provider as the WiFi is horrible.

This hotel is all about the great beach. The beach is beautiful and sun beds / umbrellas are free. It's also very child friendly beach.There was quite a lot activities for children which looked really fun so if your child can speak Italy that could be a plus. (Our child did not speak Italy and is a bit shy so she did not participate on any activities..)
Unfortunately the rest of the hotel is not that great. Hotel and our room was already a bit old and could use some fixing. Wi-Fi was really poor in our room. Breakfast was not that great. You have to wait in lines to get basically everything (coffee, juice...) and it seems that something is always out of stock (and to get it refilled takes way too long...). Lunch from the bar was also quite hard to get. You just could not get any service at all. One issue was also that almost nobody spoke any English...

A nice resort, with a pool and private beach. The resort is set in a natural cove. We stayed in the Cala del Turco villas, newly constructed recently. NIce room with small balcony. Comfortable beds and modern bathroom. We stayed out of season so many parts of the resort were out of use like the beachside restaurants. However, a comfortable stay and pleasant, helpful staff.
It's a bit out of the way being about 10km from the nearest town of Peschici and this would be my main drawback.
A place I will return to in the season. It's location, setting and availability of restaurants in season lends itself to a half board or full board stay when planning a getaway break relaxing in the resort for most of the time.
