Great place. Excellent location. Matteo is great communicator and offers options on parking.
Pay for private parking thru the property. $7 shuttle to hotel unless you have 1 small bag. If more than a small carry on then get the $7 shuttle. Only negative I can think of was that the mattress could have been better but fine for 3 nights.
Great breakfast on the roof.

Would def stay again!

Thanks Matteo and staff!

We arrived ahead of stated 4pm checkin ( unaware we could have arrived at any time) and were not able to reliably find and enter ithe designated parking because of our understanding of his parking explanation.
Because of telephone connectivity issues ,nice person at nearby snackbar called for me to the BB. The BB owner was none too happy that a stranger called him.
He did inform me of how to enter his place and our room off hours and that he was sending a cart to get us and car into the lot.
We were quite surprised that we had to climb alot of steep and narrow stairs to our room lugging luggage.
Our room was very nice , clean and spacious.
We found out later that we had been upgraded and were shown our original matrimonial room which really did not have floor space for suitcases.
We had a little balcony which was nice to get air but a pain in night from the bar a few places away. Italy does not seem to enforce their 11 pm noise curfew.
Breakfast buffett was nice and was on the terrace. It had a variety of cakes,
cheeses and cold cuts , bread ,
a few strawberries in a bowl , boiled eggs cut in half on a plate and little pieces of the thinnest frittata ever seen. Better on the second day And coffee.
The owner was not pleased I reviewed our stressful parking issues online saying angrily that that was the thanks he got for his upgrade ( which we knew nothing about).As the atmophere then became uncomfortable , unwelcoming we left the next day despite having paid for 3

Matteo was very helpful, gave us so many suggestions from parking and restaurants.The breakfast has variety of spread and it was on the roof terrace.

It’s a fine B&B located on a picturesque street right close to the main street and the old town. Location is a dream. We also appreciated the host who was most helpful from arranging a golf cart to bring our luggage and us to the place and to help us with activity and restaurant suggestions and bookings. Super helpful. Our room was very small (I know, Europe) but functional. The bathroom very small. If you’re above average size- good luck showering as the enclosure is so small. For the downsides- one was the bed. It was beyond firm and difficult to get a restful sleep. The other downside was the squeaking/rubbing sound that went on 2 of the 3 days and nights. There is a plastic roll-shutter upstairs off the breakfast room that made an annoying sound with any wind. Unfortunately for us, the last two days were the windiest. Lucky I brought earplugs to help dampen the disturbance but between that and the bed, I did not get a good sleep.

From the moment we arrived at Tra Le Mura Bed & Breakfast, our experience was exceptional. Matteo, our host, demonstrated remarkable hospitality; he truly is one of the best in the industry. He arranged for a golf cart to pick us up from the train station, as well as a tuk-tuk to Calaponte Marina for a delightful boat tour. Each morning, we enjoyed a delicious breakfast on the terrace, accompanied by a refreshing ocean breeze.

The location is ideal, with numerous restaurants within walking distance—Via Roma and Grotta Palazzese are just a block away. It’s also a short 10-minute walk to Lama Monachile beach. After our check-out, Matteo kindly contacted us to inform us that we had left behind a ring belonging to my niece, which speaks volumes about the honesty of the staff.

The accommodations were comfortable and clean, featuring excellent bedding and a pristine bathroom. Additionally, there is a gelato shop and a place to book activities, such as bike rentals and boat tours, just steps from the bed and breakfast.

We were fortunate enough to witness a double rainbow over the ocean during our stay, which was a stunning highlight. I highly recommend Tra Le Mura and look forward to returning for a longer visit to explore more of Puglia. Thank you once again, Matteo, for your outstanding hospitality!

The proprietor was the most kind and helpful person in that position I have ever encountered in my many years of international travel. I have some mobility issues, and he brought our bags both up and down the steep stairs to the rooms. The breakfast on the unbelievably lovely top patio was simply fabulous and had a panoramic view of the Adriatic and old section of town. I highly recommend this spot as the place to stay in Polignano A Mare Italy

Extremely disappointing!

The property did not offer many of the amenities listed. The room is not waterfront, but the small balcony and the window face the building across the street. The bed was a queen size, not a king one, and it was not accessible on one side, since it was stacked against the wall (which is also a safety hazard). The ceiling in the bathroom was so low that I could not stand straight. Breakfast was not served on the rooftop terrace, and there was no room service either. We were given instead a coupon for a coffee and pastry at a nearby coffee shop. Definitely not what we were expecting and paid for.

Room was small but had a nice view and the town is so beautiful you won't want to stay in your room. Beautiful rooftop terrace for breakfast. Only downsides were that there was a very small shower and narrow staircase to lug luggage up to room.

A little bit disappointed

The hotel is in a great position, right near the old town and close to everything.
However, the room I booked (and confirmed) was a two bedroom apartment. On arrival, we were advised that \"as we were just 2 people we didn't need 2 bedrooms and they had given our room to a family\". Although the manager was apologetic and tried to help, ultimately, they ended up putting us in a standard room with a double bed and a single bed in the same room. Disappointing as I had gone to some trouble to select this particular hotel specifically because it offered 2 bedrooms. Never-the-less,they discounted the rate to the standard room rate and the room was nice, it had a tiny balcony and possibly the worlds smallest shower. The little terrace on the top floor can be used by all guests and was a nice place to sit and enjoy a drink in the afternoon. The complimentary continental breakfast was excellent.

Only problem we had was upon a arrival although the documentation, said someone would be at the desk from 8 am to 830 pm, there was no one there upon our arrival. We were told we were supposed to call 4th hours prior to our arrival and notify them of arrival time. It seems the manager felt he should be home having lunch rather than have someone cover for arrivals. A neighborhood to call him.

Ideal accommodations in Polignano a Mare

Tra le Mura is a real gem! Located right in the heart of Polignano, this B and B is comfortable and clean, and breakfast is delicious. The staff is friendly, accommodating, and helpful. Being in the town's centre means that there is activity late into the night during the summer. This is very happy noise, and is outweighed by the fabulous location and comfort. I would return here in the future.

This is a really great town, and we would have loved to spend more time there- definitely not a typical tourist hit-- which made it all the better for us.

A localização é perfeita. Perto de tudo, inclusive do famoso restaurante Grota Palazzese (2 minutos caminhando), onde jantamos em uma das noites. Tive um problema com o meu filho que não se sentia bem, e o sr. Matteo gentilmente foi até a propriedade para antecipar o nosso check-in, me ajudou a levar as malas na escada e nos indicou um excelente restaurante e providenciou o nosso taxi de retorno para a estação de trem. O quarto é OK. Tinha tudo o que precisávamos. O café da manhã é OK também. Não geralmente me hospedo em B&B, prefiro sempre hotéis com recepção 24horas. Mas, estou considerando retornar ao Tra la Mura. Foi uma boa experiência. Acho porém, que a arrumação do quarto poderia ser melhor em nosso 2o dia. Não li realmente como é a politica do local para arrumação, mas a camareira só forrou a cama e deixou todo o resto como estava, inclusive as taças de vinho e canecas sujas etc. Como disse, pretendo sim retornar a esse B&B. Gostei!
