CAR HIRE IS A MUST! Without a car, it’s an hour walk to restaurants etc. And don’t come off season, we came last week of May & struggled to find anywhere open. you are very much left to your own devices during the day, the only food available all day is an appetiser which is a few small dishes of nibbles. Breakfast is basic & dinner is overpriced. You won’t find ‘classic’ Italian dishes like pizza and pasta on the menu. It says close to the beach but in reality it’s close to a rocky coastline where it’s dangerous to enter the sea. Sandy beaches are at least a 15 min drive north or south of the coastline.

Beautiful, relaxing & clean hotel, friendly staff also. Thank you to Barbara who helped us organise a hire car a few days into our stay, which was difficult bc of the time of year. Gallipoli is the closest town, beautiful and tons of restaurants/ bars/ shops etc 24 min drive away. Otranto is also gorgeous - 1 hour drive. Special shoutout to Serena (usually wears red) she was a helpful, sweet and caring member of staff who went above and beyond to ensuring we felt happy and comfortable :) We would recommend this hotel for couples who want a quiet & romantic getaway.

We really enjoyed staying at Masseria Samenti, the place is lovely, the main area is well curated, the swimming pool is something very special and the rooms are big and nice. There was also a little garden in front of our room, where the kinder could also play a bit. Barbara, the owner, was really nice with us, as we went a bit outside of the high season, she suggested where we could find some nice open restaurants and she was also nice with the kids, giving them a little ball to play, which they could keep it as a present. Breakfast was also very good, as were outside of high season, we were served at the table (I guess during high season there is a buffet, but I am not sure) and it was all very fresh (fruit, croissants, bread, jams, pan cakes, ham, cheese, coffee, tee, etc..). It's also very close to the see, we just walked there a couple of time, as the weather was not allowing to swim (but we could not resist to use the swimming pool..:). All good, really nice place

Lovely property with a beautiful swimming pool and garden. Barbara was very helpful and gave us a lovely packed breakfast when we had to leave early. The property is far from Gallipoli and in a secluded spot.It is important you visit during full tourist season otherwise all the surrounding towns are closed.

The immediate area around is residential, not much to do, but 10 minutes drive and you are at the most beautiful Galipoli beaches

Beautiful garden, excellent service, spacious villa style rooms. The restaurant is Michelin level. The staff is amazing, kind, they treated me like royalty. I had a wonderful time.

The room was strangely set up: the sink in the middle of the room.

It’s beautiful and the food is really good

There is no additional snacks/ food apart from breakfast and dinner. So be prepared to bring something of your own to eat between 10am and 7pm. It is about a 20 min walk to the nearest shop/restaurant for lunch, also something to consider if you have no car.

Property was beautiful and the restaurant was lovely, we had two very nice meals in the evening for good value. Very comfortable and cosy room

Everything was good, the rooms are quite simple/ basic compared to the details in the rest of the property.

Beautiful pool area and restaurant with a view, perfect for a 2 day stay.

There was no straight rule or openning time for using the pool. But once in the evening 22:00h, my son was noted to leave the pool becaue the restaurant is full with guests.

This is really an authentic apulian beauty. The place is very nice, romantic. The feeling of the mornings, to see big blue sea is unforgetable. The pool is the best I've tried during travels. The accomodation restaurant is the best in the region, with a hundreds of wine specialities from Apulia region. The sea could be reached by walk with kids in 5 minutes.

The hotel is beautiful: the view, the building, the pool, our room... all was really great. We ate at the restaurant twice and had lovely meals and drinks both times. The team was extremely nice, helpful and friendly yet discreet. Both my wife and I were extremely pleased!
