Villa Wanda - Residenza di Charme

Well located in the vicinity of Trani - easy acces to the sea - very big family house high ceilings big lightening lustre big room big bathroom great hostess private parking

Anybody who has traveled around Italy will know that hotels can be a little "variable". Villa Wanda is one of the nicest I have ever stayed in. it is not a grand or luxury hotel but at times it felt like it. It is set in a beautiful large house on a main road in Trani so it is relatively easy to find. However, I wasn't aware of traffic noise throughout the night. It's not on the seafront but the beach is only a 5 minute walk away. Parking was very straightforward. The entrance hall is very imposing with a large wooden staircase and a huge chandelier. The entire building has the feeling of being well cared for. Our room ( which included a second single room ) was large, attractively furnished and clean, as was the spacious bathroom. I'm not sure if we were dealing with staff or proprietors but everybody was very pleasant and easy going and somehow we seemed to rapidly have all the information we needed to make our stay pleasant. We only stayed one night so we didn't use any other facilities except for breakfast which was a typical continental breakfast consisting of fresh ingredients. I thoroughly enjoyed staying at Villa Wanda. Everything was welcoming. It didn't seem soulless like staying in one of the big chain hotels but neither did you feel as if you were an intruder in somebody else's house. I would recommend Villa Wanda to anybody visiting this area.

Very large old house with winding staircase to the rooms. The rooms are very big . Private gate to house to enter and park from main road. Bed was not comfortable for us but large room and huge bathroom were good. Breakfast was great also. Host/owner was also very friendly and helpful.

Nice, but not all the people can speak English....
