Volunteering at the Palazzo was amazing! the guest house and Filippo were extremely kind and welcoming, always making us feel comfortable and at home :) The work was easy and we never had to do too much, therefore we had a lot of free time to enjoy the beautiful region. On our days off they made sure we could have a full day at the beach which was incredible! The palazzo and the team made the experience unforgettable and I'm very grateful for the time I got to spend there <3

My experience at Palazzo the guest house was amazing! The work was as agreed and wasn't hard at all and we were always given a generous amount of money to buy ourselves food. The Palazzo itself is great, the garden is huge and so beautiful and we even got to use the pool when the guests weren't around! The location in Manduria is great, it's a rather small place but you're right in the center so you can easily explore. the guest house, Paolo & Filippo, as well as the rest of the staff were super kind and would always take us to places like the beach if we had time or recommend us things to do :)
