Overall Ratings & Reviews Torre Cintola Greenblu Sea Emotions

We booked a suite for November. When we arrived, the front gate was closed, and we had to use the intercom ask them to open the gate. The lady who answered was rude and inpatient. Instead of a suite, they gave us two family rooms, which cost much less. When I asked, the reception lady, which was also very rude, told us the suites were closed during off season, but later at night we could see a couple of them had guests staying there. I ended up contacting Expedia to deal with the hotel and get the difference in price back. Very unpleasant experience staying here.

It was a good property but it was the wrong time of year to be there. It is a seaside resort and it would be better to be there when it was warmer. The resort was too far from Monopoli for us and cost 25 euros for a cab.

The domed rooms were cute and in a good garden setting. The beach is rocky and not useable. The pools are great. The breakfast was good but the same everyday. The restaurant food we tried once wasn’t that great. About 10-15 minutes drive from the town which was nice and by the water.

loved it, beautiful hotel...

This is a lovey hotel with accommodation dotted around the site in pods. Plenty of facilities, sports courts, 2 pools, restaurant and bar. Unfortunately some of the amenities were not open during our stay, e.g. the shops and rooftop restaurant, which was disappointing as it was only September. If you haven't paid for full board you can dine in the buffet restaurant for 35 euros each including wine, however the food choice wasn't great and the hot meal was below par. Breakfast choice not great either with long queues for coffee and hot food - this consisted of only scrambled egg and bacon every day. Had lunch one day which was expensive for a very poor/small pasta dish. We were advised by reception that there were 2 other restaurants in walking distance, but when we walked along the road at night to find them there was nothing open - a bit of misinformation here. Pool area lovely with plenty of loungers and nice music, beach area consisted of small decking area but very rocky and no obvious access to the sea. Bar prices quite steep but as there's nowhere else to go locally there's no alternative but to pay them! Location a bit out of the way and car required to drive to the nearby town of Monopoli but a lovely resort which is probably very busy in the summer months.

Food quality was poor

Wonderful family orientated quirky resort.

All in all a nice hotel with good amenities, 2 swimming pools and a private beach, this, however, being rocky. So bathing shoes are recommended. Food choice (and quality) was, in comparison with other hotels of a similar standard, somewhat limited. Food items such as eggs (scrambled or boiled) and others were not quickly replenished and there was often quite a wait for coffee or tea. Also, not enough cups and bowls. Staff friendly and helpful. The entertainment on offer was good. Good parking and a bus service into Monopoli from.the outside of the hotel (recommended).

Pros: renovated bedrooms and convenient location. Rude staff, weird atmosphere, terrible food. There’s no beach (just a fake sand in front of the rocks) and the AC barely worked. I didn't use the amazing swimming pool because it was mandatory to use SWIM CAPS! Like in the 50’s. Pathetic

Lovely place and staff.

Additional charges for the pool access not advertised at checkin. Food is really average.

The hotel is nice for an all inclusive type of vacation. Good to travel with family, but not for a VIP tour of Monopoli or Puglia. I selected the hotel thinking it had a beach to relax, but it was very limited and far from the city of Monopoli if you want to have dinner

Two nights running there were issues at the bar One they ran out of food - could not manage a simple toast The second night the ice machine broke so could not even put a cocktail together One ice machine in the whole complex? It’s a bad joke Furthermore with many people watching the Euro Finals management could not organise a suitable space. Everyone had to watch it in the small bar television WITHOUT any sound. No clue.

Check in staff at the reception is inexperienced who have very limited knowledge of the property and services. Spa has only 1 person managing the spa and the services. She won’t answer or return the call for hours. And the staff at the front won’t pass the message. Not many activities on the property and the beach is all rocks.. Dining options are limited. However the rooms are good and bed comfortable.

What a beautiful hotel with direct access to the Adriatic Sea! Conveniently located to many other towns in the area. We had originally booked 4 nights here and ended up booking 4 additional nights.

Checkin took a long time due to all the info they think they need to tell you. Pool was nice , we were traveling in Puglia area and used this place as home base for 2 days, we wished we would have stayed in Monopoly center

just a regular hotel

Great Place

We had a great time as a family with friends. Great surrounding, lots of space, friendly staff and good food. we were there early April which means it was quite but we could make the most of the fantastic swimming pools

If you drive in Italy this is great place to stay. Unique dome shaped rooms throughout the resort property with ocean view. Unique stay and friendly staff. Great value for money.
