Masseria Torre Maizza

Hotel details

Every April this sensational resort opens its doors to the sunshine and beauty of Puglia. This charmingly renovated Masseria is surrounded by ancient olive groves and filled with creatively designed, locally inspired touches and comforts to remind you just how wonderful this region is.

The beauty of the Adriatic Sea combined with a private 9-hole golf course makes for a stunning exclusive retreat with only 40 rooms and suites to share this slice of paradise. If you can bear to explore the region then the nearest town is barely 2 kilometres away with other beautiful sights within easy reach. The international airport of Bari is only 80kms away.

Having only just reopened in 2019, Rocco Forte Hotels and the tasteful design hand of Olga Polizzi have transformed the Masseria with a combination of the contemporary and the traditional, blending the magical blue Puglia sky with turquoise water. The meticulously attentive staff combine professional service with courteous charm. The concierge can arrange private visits to many of the local towns and villages or, if you prefer, a complimentary boat trip to nearby Monopoli.

The converted 16th century farm buildings house a bar and restaurant; these are vast splendid spaces where you can enjoy local Puglian wines and seasonal fresh cuisine with a focus on seafood. The Carosello restaurant is created around informal, tasty eating and portions are generous indeed. This is a very southern Italian dining experience but if you want something more casual then you can’t beat a pizza poolside!
