Nothing

It’s taken a few days to write this review as words can not describe such a wonderful experience. Patrizia and Antonio are perfect hosts. They are the kindest people you could hope to meet. All the food was amazing, including the welcome lunch and the delicious, locally sourced home cooked breakfast. The place is truly beautiful and a great place to relax or to use as a base to travel to nearby towns. We stayed in the suite which has its own private terrace with sitting area, I highly recommend to book this if you can; its own private entrance and views of the beautiful countryside make it an unforgettable retreat. Thank you so much.

And it was delicious. This, however, is not just a food review. The property is beautifully designed and constructed into a simple yet gorgeous stone structure using limestone and other materials common to this area of Puglia. There are only four bedrooms and one junior suite. The pinnacle is the fenced-in rear of the building which combines a large wooden dining table that sits in front of a very picturesque swimming pool surrounded by colorful gardens including stunning roses. Our junior suite was spacious and lovingly decorated with all the amenities along with a private patio. If you get a chance to visit this region, I’d highly recommend you take the opportunity to experience this property and meet Patrizia and Tony in person. They are an amazing duo that has found a way to just do it right. Just an FYI. I would book well in advance as they are booked probably for all the reasons that I mentioned here.

My wife and I experienced two days at Relais Masseria Sant’ Antonio, Puglia in late September 2022. We are a well-traveled couple having spent more than our fair share of time in a variety of hotels, guest houses, villas, and AirBnB around the world. So I’d like to think that we have a benchmark to qualify the review that I’m about to present. Any establishment is only as good as its people and that leads us first to those individuals that make this villa ’sing’. Meet Patrizia and Antonio, your hosts. And hosts they are. It was made very clear on our arrival that their sole mission was to exceed our expectations in every way possible. Patrizia and Tony simply excel at providing everything that you need (or don’t know you need) to make your stay as enjoyable as possible. I want to address what we believe is the singular thing that this couple excels at and that must be highlighted in this review. The food! Tony and Patrizia are fine cooks. However, to say that they are cooks is simply an understatement. They are chefs and from our experience, very fine chefs. We were arriving in the late afternoon and had asked if we could have dinner at the villa that evening and Patrizia was delighted to accommodate. We were not prepared for what we were about to enjoy. This was Michelin Star, southern Italy cuisine at its finest. Aperitif, extraordinary local wine, accompanied with multiple courses, plated and presented with care and attention to detail that is only equaled to the love and attention that came through as they presented each dish to us. Dinner was trumped the next morning with a breakfast that was unlike no other. Patrizia and Tony's attention to using the finest and the freshest organic ingredients come through with everything that they prepare. I can’t remember the name of the cake that Patrizia so lovingly prepared (yes, Italians love their pastries in the morning) but I know that she spent hours creating this wonderful pastry specifically for us.

nothing!

Everything was wonderful. Patrizia and Tony (owners) made sure every detail was attended to. The rooms and pool were beautiful. The staff was amazing and always on hand to get whatever we needed. One evening Patrizia and Tony prepared the most amazing dinner for us and our friends. All the food and wine were locally sourced and it was fantastic. It helps that Tony was a professional chef in Milan before this venture. The location is excellent - very quiet but only 7-8 min to the beaches where the water was warm and crystal clear.

Nothing - everything was perfect

Everything was absolutely fantastic - the beautiful masseria, the charming hosts, the delicious breakfast (something different & special was served every day). The hosts know all the best restaurants and are very helpful. The masseria really feels like a home. The best beaches in Puglia are very close. We came as strangers and went as friends! We‘ll come again!!!

Absolutely amazing, a real gem. Patrizia and Tony look after you like royalty, breakfast was a delight, all freshly cooked for us, different wonders every morning, I feel like I had a real taste of Italy. The villa is superb, everything done to such discerning standards. Only wish we had taken our whole family, would be glorious, another time! I forgot, Our beautifully cooked lunch by Tony on our arrival, presented so beautifully as well.

Nothing at all

Beautiful villa, wonderful pool but even more incredible are the hosts and the care and attention they take to make the guests welcome. We have never stayed anywhere with such attentive and genuine care. A delicious breakfast every morning. This really is a must to stay at if you are in the area. Wonderful people and a beautiful property

I loved every single moment of my stay. To say it’s a special and beautiful experience is an understatement. Patrizia and Tony go above and beyond to make you feel comfortable and show you the real heart of puglia and what it is like to live here. I’ve already planned on my visit next year. Best place I’ve ever stayed in.
