마세리아 바냐라

We had a truly wonderful time at the Masseria Bagnara. We went for a week in mid-April to re-charge our batteries, so we want peace and quiet, warm weather and relaxation. Out of season we certainly had all of that including having the outdoor pool to ourselves most days which was great. The staff were absolutely amazing: attentive, caring, discreet, full of hospitality and happy to accommodate you. We wanted for nothing. The front of house staff Salvatore and Julia were extremely helpful and warm, the really pleasant owner came to say hello to us every day, and the kitchen and dining room staff, Sylvia and Mimo, were just lovely. The food at the Masseria is fantastic - we would have very happily eaten there every night. But we also got great recommendations from the staff (since not that much is open pre-season) which we acted on. The countryside was in full flush, and there are plenty of towns nearby to visit and enjoy. We walked to the sandy beach by the sea nearly every day - again, we had it largely to ourselves, and we also braced the admittedly still rather cold - but crystal clear - water, and not just running in, holding our breath and rushing back to shore. We cannot recommend this Masseria too highly, especially for those wanting a relaxing, quiet time, in quality surroundings and with brilliant staff.

Amazing experience, amazing service and very attentive staff to all your needs. Rooms are amazing with very comfortable closet, shower, great bed, large room and private outdoor sitting area just in front of your room. The pool is fabulous and overlooks the fields and because the structure is elevated you get a nice breeze as well. The owner Alessandro is always present and attentive to whatever you need or desire as well as all the staff. Let's talk about the food, the chef is amazing, always attentive and ready to prepare whatever you desire. The dishes are superb to say the least and the menu changes daily always with fresh and local ingredients. You want something that's not on the menu? Not a problem at all. They also have a spa which makes the experience at the Masseria even more relaxing. For wine lovers.....the wine cellar is one of the most complete I have ever seen, this is the place to find your rare bottle and enjoy it. The bar is also as complete with an enormous variety of grappa's, amaro's and much more and cigar selection as well! Am writing this while still here and leaving tomorrow and did not want to leave anything out. But the live experience is certainly a must if you come to Puglia. Oh forget about all the decorative details and design, just exquisite!!! A presto e grazie della vostra ospitalità e gentilezza.
