Barbara, Aldo & Matteo and our 2 servers couldn’t have been nicer. Food was amazing and Matteo went out of his way to prepare us some excellent meals. First class service and a beautiful property. Highly recommended
The most stunning property with beautiful views. The staff is kind and very accommodating. The breakfast spread was wonderful and the restaurant was excellent for dinner - fairly priced for fine dining experience. Parking available on site, and staff speaks English. Overall, a beautiful and relaxing stay that we would highly recommend.
Amazing Masseria. The Restaurant is absolutely amazing, one of the best dinners we had. The breakfast is also super good. And Barbara was extremely helpful as she gave us lots of tips for the region. She made our stay unforgettable.

I give the Masseria a 5 star solely based on the staff. The establishment itself needs a facelift. Restaurant is amazing, staff are so cool and I took a liking to several during my stay. I’d stay again just because of them.
We had 2 fantastic days here. Barbara and all staff were very friendly and gave us every attention during our stay. The Masseria has everything you need to relax. Nice pool, food and wine as in a star restaurant. We will come here again, Susanne&Peter
We have been in Italy more than 10 times and in Salento 6 times and this was the best stay by far. Everyhing was just top notch. We really hope that we can come back next summer.
First of all this place is HEAVEN….! The Masseria is beautiful with stunning views and kept to an exceptional standard. Breakfast is refreshing and healthy and the evening menu caters for both Adults and Children. The Tomato Salad with home grown tomotoes and basil is amazing and the Head Chef is fantastic. The pool is big and has a shallow end for children and deeper end for adults. It’s really clean and perfect temperature. The rooms are spacious, clean and everything you need on site. All the staff were very welcoming and in particular Barbara is very happy to help you if you need something. Drink prices are reasonable and with a local supermarket less than 5mins away you can easily pick up some cheap lunch options with traditional Irwin food. The Masseria does not offer lunch so worth visiting. Otranto and Ostuni are must visits and are 60-90mins away by car. Would recommend you rent a car as nothing is walkable. Overall as a young family this was the perfect getaway, credit to the whole team at Samenti for a wonderful stay, amazing service, and excellent standards across the board.
I recently stayed at Masseria Samenti, and it was a deeply disappointing experience. The room itself was furnished with bland, basic, and cheap-quality furniture. The towels, linens, and bed were all of similarly poor quality, making the stay uncomfortable and far from what I expected.
The hotel's remote location left us with nothing to do around the property. It’s isolated, with no nearby attractions or activities to enjoy, making the stay feel even more monotonous. To top it off, the breakfast was terrible—low-quality food that didn't taste fresh. Unfortunately, this lackluster quality extended to all the meals we had during our stay.
What made the experience even worse was the hotel's no-refund policy. Despite my major dissatisfaction with the stay, I was refused a refund or any form of compensation. This rigid policy, combined with the low standards of the hotel, makes me regret choosing Masseria Samenti for my vacation. I would not recommend this place to anyone looking for a quality stay.
Fantastische locatie en op en top hospitality. Barbara gaf ons hele fijne tips voor eetadresjes en bezienswaardigheden in de omgeving. Het eten bij de Masseria is zo goed dat we daar een aantal keren gedineerd hebben. Heerlijk zwembad en zonnebedjes maakten het compleet.
Gästvänlig personal, otrolig miljö och fräscha rum. Det ligger lite off från städerna omkring så bil behövs. Men som sagt - otroligt! Rekommenderar varmt 🌟
