Masseria Sant'Elia is a historic property, actually a former convent, set in the Itria Valley 5 minutes' drive from Martina Franca. It offers characteristic rooms with stone walls and floors. Sant'Elia has its own chapel and features a number of Trulli, stone dwellings that are typical of the Puglia region. All rooms are air conditioned and feature a TV, minibar and beautiful view of the garden. Some have a balcony or patio. A sweet Italian breakfast is served each morning. Drinks are available from the bar and you also have a reading room and TV lounge on the ground floor. The Masseria's hilltop location guarantees beautiful views across the Puglia countryside. The oldest areas of the property date back to 1568, but Sant'Elia has had a long and interesting history since then. You have free parking on site and are 20 minutes' drive from the town of Fasano and its famous zoo. The White City of Ostuni is 40 minutes' drive away, as are the nearest beaches.

Couples particularly like the location — they rated it 8.5 for a two-person trip.

    Masseria Sant'Elia was simply a lovely place to stay. Positioned in the centre of the Itria Valley's golden triangle of Locorotondo, Alberobello and Martina Franca, it was the perfect location for exploring this area. The staff spoke little...

    We spent three nights at Sant Elia during late October. It was off season, but the property and the experience were still wonderful. The history of the property is so interesting; and the grounds are beautifully kept. Trullis everywhere lend a...

    Nous avons très apprécié l'accueil de la patronne qui nous a proposé de partager le repas avec un car de touriste français qui ne venait que pour le repas. Du coup nous avons pu bénéficier de l'animation musicale et du repas.
