Masseria Panareo

The property was wonderful - great views to the olive trees and the sea. Very quiet (if you don't mind the sounds of nature; but since you're looking at a property in a countryside, you most likely don't). It was 32+ degrees Celsius (90F) when we visited at the end of June, thus the pool was a real blessing. Yes, there were some bugs in it, but then again - don't expect anything else from an open-air pool. Since we only booked a few days in advance, we got the smallest room, I believe, but it was by far not small - we had plenty space to walk around the bed even with two suitcases lying on the floor (we did not use the wardrobe since we only stayed for two nights). Upon arrival, we found ants on the bathroom window sill. Very polite ants, I must say, since they wee all gone when we got back from dinner and did not get back the next day! :D The sound insulation of the room leaves to be desired - you can hear when your neighbors are coming back and leaving (so you might want to pack in some earplugs), but that's if you really picky. The room was great. The restaurant - even better. The food (both breakfast and dinner) was tasty, the staff very friendly. Since we book for two nights, but due to our rental breakdown were only able to arrive the next day (and booked one extra night since we loved the place), they charged us only for two nights instead of three, which was hugely appreciated. We will definitely come back!

The property it's amazing facility very good quite and relaxing Service is great Daniele in the morning was great professional helpful and anticipate everyone needs .Bravo .Lady at reception very good as well .We loved it and will be back

What a beautiful place, a warm friendly welcome and a stunning setting. The hotel is an oasis of calm and beauty. The room was lovely and the grounds and pool are so beautiful. The staff are a credit to the hotel, the two ladies on reception were so helpful and full of great tips for visiting other towns. Daniele who served us breakfast is a lovely man. Breakfast, lunch and dinner were all superb. We will definitely be back.

Wow wow wow is all I can say about this property, the owner Alessandro and the team. Phenomenal grounds. Cosy, super clean rooms (just a few ants) - but we are in a Masseria, modern key access and on site parking. 6 mins drive from the bustling Otranto. As vegetarians, they tried to accommodate us with more non meat breakfast options. Dinner for those who eat meat and fish - you must try it. Even for my sister and I, they created a 2 course meal for our final night which was delicious. Alessandro takes care of his guests, and I’m grateful he and his team went out of their way to organise a bottle of Prosecco and a cake with candle for my sisters birthday. I would highly recommend this hotel. it’s also close to the most beautiful beaches. PS the tennis court was a massive bonus. Minor Drawbacks: - better signage leading to the Masseria. the lights are not enough. - breakfast to finish at 1030am had to keep the tea/ coffee until the last guest leaves. - ants in the room and travelled into the suitcase. if you are going to Otranto, you MUST stay here !!

The service is excellent. Staff is courteous and create an relaxing and home-y vibe. Breakfast is actually a full meal that offers sweet and savory options, local and international, with views of the Adriatic Pool is excellent. Good for swimming and also relaxing. Spritzes, beers, and other drinks are offered. Sea view from the pool.
