We used Bianco Riccio as a home base for our 10 days in Puglia this August. Having travelled to different destinations in Europe on this trip before arriving in Puglia and travelling several other times a year to tourist destinations in North America, we immediately noticed that Bianco Riccio did everything a just little better and with a more personal touch than other hotels in the same (and higher) price ranges.
Perhaps it is the attention to detail of on site Director/Manager Mr. Alessandro Scalone and his team, who are there full time for the year instead of only during the high season, but the familiarity of the staff, room cleaning, modern common areas and amenities being maintained to a level of detail we have seen more commonly in ultra luxury accommodations.
We had the benefit of a car and certainly recommend one for anyone visiting Puglia as it gives you the flexibility to visit the entire region. Bianco Riccio offered the benefit of free parking and from this central location even the furthest areas of the region were accessible in a maximum of 90-120 minutes.
Food in the restaurant is well suited to tourists comfortable having breakfast or a light lunch by the pool, with several dining options in various price ranges within a five minute walk from the hotel and mainly in areas that are closed to cars in the evening to accommodate walking, strollers and children at play.
The concierge was comfortable going above and beyond as we requested access to all the popular beach clubs, restaurants, and event venues in the area. In this regard, the Bianco Riccio staff took personal ownership of facilitating special reservations as we celebrated an important personal event during our stay there.
We encourage anyone visiting this region to include Bianco Riccio as part of their travel plans for accommodation.

We stayed at the hotel at the end of August 2023 and booked two double rooms for a week. The hotel is nice and quiet with a good size swimming pool for the size of hotel. It is less than 5 minutes walk from the harbour with all the restaurants. You really need to hire a car to visit the many nice hill top and coastal towns within one hours drive. We also visited Matera which is about 2 hours drive away. There is not so much to do in Savelettrialthough it’s a nice quiet port. The rooms are of a good size with nice bathrooms. The breakfast had a cold buffet selection plus you could order fried or scrambled eggs plus bacon every morning. The hotel manager was very helpful in recommending and booking restaurants and suggesting nearby hill top towns to visit by car. Our only complaint was the price . we booked our two rooms in the middle of June for the last week in August and since they use dynamic pricing we paid €390 a night per room for two people bed and breakfast. May have been worth it for the sea view rooms but not for the ones facing houses at the back. The view from the breakfast restaurant and evening bar was very nice though.

We have just spent five days at the Bianco Riccio Suite Hotel which reflects the high standard of luxury and beauty that can be seen from the site. We had such a good time that we almost didn't leave the hotel: abundant breakfast, impeccable cleanliness of the rooms and above all we made use of the spotless swimming pool every day, equipped with revolving mechanical sunbeds with relaxing music in the background and a fabulous bar where you can also have lunch in the afternoon. We are only sorry that it is not open for dinner because it is a place that deserves it. Finally we must thank the Director and all the staff, including the guys in the pool, who have always worked hard to ensure maximum comfort for my husband who unfortunately suffers from back problems. But everyone, from reception to the breakfast room, is to be commended. Greetings and see you soon.

Alessandro and his team provided the warmest welcome we have ever had in Puglia and we’ve been coming here for 40+ years. The team here all speak very good English and can’t do enough for you, booking restaurants, listening to feedback. The rooms are excellent, large clean well equipped suites and a really nice balcony overlooking the sea. The road is a little bustly, which for us added to the atmosphere, especially having a sundowner on the balcony whilst watching the world go by in an array of vehicles and dress! Plenty of restaurants in the village, with excellent meat and seafood. The pool is perfect and for us convenient rather than heading to one of the many beach clubs, if your looking for a beach then heading towards capitolo or Monopoli is likely to be slightly less costly in the summer. Thanks Alessandro and your wonderful team for a wonderful stay and great hospitality. Mann Family.

Splendid, new and clean structure, located in a quiet area, adjacent to the central street of Savelletri and facing the sea. Convenient location for reaching places of interest such as Alberobello, Ostuni, Polignano a Mare, Fasano and Locorotondo by car. Large, clean suite with terrace overlooking the pool. The location for breakfast was excellent: a total white 4th floor terrace with sea view and staff who were always smiling, helpful and very, very courteous. Director always present, available and quick in booking each service offered. Private parking and fast Wi-Fi.

This is an outstanding hotel in the most beautiful location. The hotel is spotlessly clean at all times, and the rooms are beautifully appointed with very comfortable beds and pillows. A special mention must go to the exceptional hotel manager, Alesandro, who's influence, direction, passion and attention to detail is evident throughout the hotel and these high standards are clearly embedded into the fabric of the operation, and embraced by every member of his team, every one of whom from cleaners right the way through were outstanding. Another special mention to Viktoria who worked around the pool area whilst we were there who was lovely. I'd highly recommend Bianco Riccio Suite hotel.

I stayed in this hotel as a couple, I must say that I was amazed by the size of the rooms and the pleasant friendliness of all the staff and especially the guys at the pool bar. The breakfast terrace is a wonderful place. Furthermore, the structure is located in the center and is very convenient for reaching any location. We will definitely be back

Two years later we returned to Bianco Riccio and it was a wonderful reconfirmation of what we had already been able to appreciate the first time. Indeed, it was not only a welcome proof of the comfort of the rooms, the comfort of the beds, the care in cleaning, the courtesy of the staff; this time it was also a pleasant discovery of the improvements made to the structure: the expanded relaxation area in the swimming pool, the new wellness and SPA area, with a large and well-equipped gym and much more. It's increasingly difficult to tear yourself away from the panorama that awaits you in the morning at breakfast, on the terrace, amidst the white furnishings and the deliciousness of the cakes. Again, warm regards to the owner and a special thanks to the hotel manager Alessandro Scalone who makes that place a welcoming place where you want to return every year. And so it will be!

In many ways, I'm a Puglia expert. I've been vacationing in this region since I was an infant. Even so, I had never heard of Savalletri. It turns out that this seaside town is a hidden jewel, and the most brilliant part of said jewel is this hotel.
Led by a manager, Alessandro, who treats you more like a family friend than a customer, the Bianco Riccio accommodates your every need. Its spacious, comfortable rooms, hearty breakfasts and relaxing swimming pool almost dissuade you from exploring the numerous nearby tourist destinations.
When we did decide to venture out, the concierge was extremely helpful in planning excursions to surrounding towns: Ostuni, Alberobello, Locorotundo, etc.
I've stayed in some magnificent hotels in Hawaii, London and Paris, and this one ranks right alongside them all. Arrivederci!

After a week staying in various historic accommodations in Puglia, we were very happy to spend two nights in this bright, modern hotel. Our room was spacious, bright, clean, and comfortable with a large balcony and view of the sea. Melania and manager Alessandro at the front desk were super nice and very helpful. We definitely enjoyed our stay here. It’s a good location for easy day trips to Alberobello, Monopoli, and other seaside towns.
