“A five star family-run hotel with a delightful down-to-earth atmosphere. Renovated 16th century farmhouse with sprawling Moorish outbuildings and flower-filled courtyards, terraces, big pool and tennis courts. Charming rooms in florals, tiled floors and fireplaces. Excellent spa and beach club too. ”

Hotel Review

This was the first masseria in Puglia to be converted into a luxury hotel. 20-odd years on, antique dealer Camillo Guerra and his family are still running it with charm and dedication. The solid, 17th century ex-farmhouse and its sprawling, Moorish outbuildings house 37 bedrooms and suites, sitting rooms and an excellent restaurant (all filled with period furnishings and paintings) while outside there are flower-filled courtyards and terraces, a big pool, and tennis courts. A sophisticated new spa and private beach club "Le Tamerici" adds to the attractions.
