Masseria Palombara is an authentic 16th-century Apulian farmhouse in Oria, in the heart of Salento. Not far from the sea, surrounded by 100 hectares of private grounds of olive groves, vineyards, and lush Mediterranean vegetation, this exclusive retreat is the perfect blend of sustainability and luxury. The property has been carefully transformed respecting its natural surroundings and promoting a sustainable lifestyle.

There are 21 charming rooms and suites, each designed with a seamless blend of rustic charm and modern comfort. All rooms have a private terrace or garden, and some even have their own plunge pool or private hammam. The understated luxury interiors, with natural materials and neutral tones, create an atmosphere of relaxation and refinement.

At the Masseria, you will find plenty of places to relax or get active. Grab a bike and enjoy a ride in the shade of the centuries-old olive trees on the property. Work out in the Technogym fitness center or sunbathe by one of the two saltwater pools where parasols and luxurious sun loungers await you. The Spa with a traditional hammam offers unique treatments and massages, for even more pampering. You can also choose from a wide range of activities, from cooking classes and olive oil and wine tastings to a stylish Vespa scooter ride. The on-site restaurant celebrates the flavors of Puglia with a farm-to-table philosophy, serving dishes made with fresh, seasonal produce grown on the estate or sourced from local farms. Breakfast is a feast of homemade jams, pastries, and other local specialties.

Nearby, you will find the best that Puglia has to offer: the beautiful white sandy beaches of Punta Prosciutto on the Ionian coast, Baroque Lecce, the caves of Matera, Alberobello and its ‘trulli’, and the Primitivo wineries in nearby Manduria.

You really don't have to dine only at the hotel. In Oria (at 2km), just after the entrance gate, there are 2 very good restaurants with authentic dishes and super service. Moreover, we were in the dépendance which is much quieter than in the hotel building itself. The Masseria is perfect for coup...

For us, the Masseria was a great place to visit different villages / towns from there, Lecce, Ostuni, Grottaglie, the beach. Because the Masseria is very centrally located, the travel times were pleasant, so that we also had enough time to dive into the pool after a visit in the area.

Authentic structure in a country-chic style

Masseria Palombara is set in a large private estate of 100 hectares. This sustainable boutique resort has 21 rooms and suites divided between the main building and an annex. The main building houses the reception, the Spa, and the restaurant. The annex is located approximately 300 meters from the main building and is surrounded by lush greenery (for greater privacy and tranquility) and can be reached by a 5-minute walk along shaded paths or by using the hotel’s bicycles. The annex houses a second swimming pool for the exclusive use of the annex guests, a fitness room with Technogym equipment, and gazebos and hammocks for sunbathing and relaxing.

Types of accommodation:

  • There are 5 luxurious and spacious suites with private plunge pools and hammams, perfect for those looking for ultimate comfort and privacy.
  • There are 5 spacious junior suites each with their own outdoor space.
  • There are 11 carefully designed rooms with private terraces or gardens for moments of tranquility.

There are no TVs in the accommodations, so you can enjoy the peaceful setting to the fullest, and only children over 14 years old are welcome. The rooms (and common areas) are all equipped with Wi-Fi internet and you have free bicycles to use during your stay.
