Masseria Salinola

Breakfast was excellent. In fact, lunch and dinner were also superb! Complimentary cake and tea in the afternoon was very civilised. Products were very high quality - soap, shampoo etc. Bed linen and towels also excellent quality. We loved the honesty bar! No scrmable for sun beds - plenty available and the pool area is just heaven - perfect for relaxing, reading and soaking up the sun. We both would most definitely book here again.

Given the very high temperatures in July 2023, and the cost of the accomodation, complimentary bottles of water in the room would have been most welcome - we got one each on arrival and that was all. An electricity pylon interrupts the view from the terrace -was just surprised that it was there as it does not appear in any images on line, for obvious reasons - but it is not a deal breaker. We had Room 3 - it was small

This farm hotel was located outside of Ostuni and offered good food at dinner and breakfast, comfortable rooms and helpful staff. My only regret was staying for just one night. This would be a great place to stay for a long weekend. The property had a beautiful pool and free bikes to borrow. There is so much to do in the area or just kick back and relax on the grounds.

It was great to have the bikes available, however, many of them needed air in the tires so could not be used. I wished that they were better maintained, but I’m sure we could have found someone to help if really needed.

This is a family owned business with a lot of charm and character. Daniele and his father are exceptionally pleasant and were attentive to everything. The entire staff seem to really enjoy working at the facility and were wonderful. Our evening aperitivos in front of an outdoor fire were memorable. We also enjoyed the dinners which were mostly prepared by Daniele’s mother. Finally, the swimming pool and lounging areas around the pool where great.

While the breakfast were very good and included a large selection of homemade pies and cakes, the prepared eggs (from their own hens) would have benefited from some accompanying sides (bacon, tomatoes, mushrooms, etc.).

Beautiful property and grounds, free to roam the vegetable garden area and lounge on the covered patio or terrace. Room was too notch, we had a fireplace which we thoroughly enjoyed. Also in good weather each unit has a nice area for sitting just outside the door. The pool is also very nice but not the right season for us to use it. Breakfast was great, tasty, wide selection of local products. You must try the burrata cheese! They will cook fresh eggs from their hens for you too. Also a lovely dining room. I have no doubt the dinner here would have been fantastic, but we did not get to try it. Daniele and his staff were amazing, they even did our laundry for a very reasonable fee.

I had the idea there would be groves of olive trees to roam through, but that was not the case, just a few here and there, though there is a garden. You can do tours in English nearby at Masseria Brancati of their olive production, but you must book in advance because they don’t happen every day and apparently they fill up. Daniele can arrange this for you but I recommend doing it before your arrival.

Beautiful old farmhouse, reimagined into lovely country inn, while retaining architectural and traditional aspects of its history. Host Daniele was welcoming with wonderful orientation so we could relax and "belong" while we were there. Also helpful and available throughout our stay.All staff were gracious Lovely white tablecloth dining room, fires in fireplaces when cool, so very cosy and elegant as well. Generous breakfast buffet plus made to order offerings. Our room was spectacular, the old granary divided into bedroom and sitting room, again maintaining old vaulted ceilings, traditional decor brought right into contemporary comfort. We loved this place. We stayed 3 nights, and ate all our dinners there. The food was inventive, delicious, and locally sourced. After three weeks traveling in Sicily and southern Italy, we were thrilled to spend the last days of our trip here in this wonderful property. We didn't use the pools or bikes, but we watched others enjoying them. Also conveniently close to Ostuni, easy drives to other villages. Don't miss this place for unique and memorable experience.

Perfect as is!

This is one of the absolute best stays we have had. The staff are wonderful and the food was outstanding! The Masseria itself is beautiful- a very peaceful place with comfortable rooms/beds, a big swimming pool and plenty of options of places to relax. Would definitely recommend. I would also recommend anyone visiting this area in general to rent a car- we drove in to Ostuni a few times (just 5 minutes) and was able to find parking right near the Old Town very easily.

Charming, spacious room with a fireplace and spa tub. Lovely family owned and run property with fruit laden trees and warm hospitality. Spectacular breakfasts and a delicious dinner; quite literally farm to table. We were there off season so it felt very intimate. Well situated to enjoy the region.

Don’t let GPS take you there on the narrow walled roads between olive groves! You are only 5 minutes from Ostuni and several hundred yards from Route 29.

The breakfast was excellent- lots of choice and all locally produced. We had dinner there 2 evenings and both the food and the wine recommendations were excellent. There is a fabulous atmosphere here and a great pride in the fact that this is the 5th generation running this masseria.

The shower in the bathroom was very small.

A beautiful masseria, which we would highly recommend. We travel a lot, and would put this hotel in our top 5. The rooms are comfortable and well equipped. The grounds are done in such a romantic way and there is such attention to detail, including fires in the evening. You couldn’t fault the service and the friendly staff and owners who would always go above and beyond. The restaurant food and wine was exceptional.

Very warm welcome, you feel at home from the very first minute. A charming place anchored in the past and the local tradition with today's comfort. Lot of care for details, not only in decorating but also in service. Amazing breakfast with local products, homemade cakes. Eggs on order.

A lighter dinner option would be appreciated, for those who do not want or are not hungry enough for the full antipasto, primo, secondo, dolce.
