Masseria TORRE COCCARO

I highly recommend this stunning Masseria. From the moment I booked and emailed this property the service was always 5 star. Arriving at this beautiful property I was met by wonderful staff who checked me in (I arrived early) they were so kind and let me know my room was available earlier. Thank you Tiziana and Francesca for all your help with my booking and Tiziana for arranging a private driver from the Masseria to Bari Airport.|I also want to thank the wonderful young man (not sure spelling of his name) who took me to the gorgeous beach club and also dropped me off at another property near by for dinner and picked me up. |My wonderful breakfast server Giuseppe who looked after me every morning for breakfast and delivering me Expresso coffee’s when I needed them, always with a beautiful smile. |Natalie the wonderful Barman who looked after me in the evenings and at dinner. Thank you all - and not forgetting all the professional concierges on the main reception area. I loved everything about this property from the breakfast to the time spent at the pool and the amazing Coccaro Beach Club - the seafood meal I had there was outstanding with a gorgeous bottle of local Chardonnay . |Thank you - You all made my stay so enjoyable.

I stayed here with my husband on our honeymoon for 4 nights in the white cave suite with private pool. The hotel is absolutely fantastic and I could not recommend it more, it is really 5 stars all around. ||The room- one of the most beautiful rooms I have ever stayed in. The traditional decor was done so tastefully and the pool and garden were absolutely beautiful. We did not want to leave the hotel ever because we loved sitting outside having drinks by our pool/garden. ||The staff- the staff is incredible. They go above and beyond to help make sure you have the best stay. Natale the barman is great, he offers great service and makes amazing drinks. The breakfast was incredible as well, and the staff was so great. It was my birthday one day and without us even telling them they brought me over a happy birthday plate with cake during breakfast. The front desk staff is great too and helped arrange anything we needed- car service to Ostuni, transfers to the airport, transportation to the beach clubs, restaurant recommendations. ||Beach clubs- We loved Coccaro beach club, the food was amazing, service great and setting was beautiful. It was nice to jump off the platforms into the water. ||Food- the food at the hotel was incredible as well. I highly recommend doing the village night, all of the food was so delicious and was a fun festival with many people. The restaurant food was also great, we had room service delivered by our pool in the room one night and it was amazing. Breakfast food was great as well, anything you could need was there.||Overall we loved this resort and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a stop on their honeymoon. I would definitely book one of the pool suites if you can!

This is one of the original Masserias in Puglia and remains family owned. The whole place has the feeling of being run by a family that is hosting you on a private stay. We are an Australian family that were looking for a traditional 5 star experience and got it. We travelled with 2 teenage kids - 16 and 17 who both loved the experience as well. Dining in the evening was a wonderful experience with the freshest most delicious food and beautiful Puglian wine. We were served by the Sommelier Paolo who was literally the most personable, attentive and passionate (especially on wines) I've ever had in Italy - and this is my 12th visit ! Had afternoon chats with Bar manager Natale who was always friendly and took the time to make you feel like you are home - made great coffee and Old Fashions as well Pool failities are excellent - beach clubs are excellent - Our hearts bled tears of sadness leaving this place. It is the best. .

We were very early for our check in and the staff couldn’t have been more accommodating and were amazing throughout our stay. The food was so so good. This was our first stop in Puglia and it was hard to top!

Favorite place in the world. If you want to relax, reset, have your privacy, be spoiled like at home, taste amazing food on the seaside and in front of their fantastic pool, enjoy the beach and its beach clubs, have the chance visit incredible locations nearby, this is absolutely the place. Country chic, upmost elegance and one of the best hotel teams ever.

Hotel, room, grounds, restaurant all|beautiful. Food, wait staff (Marino), pool attendants (Antonio) excellent. Concierge and front desk not as informed as we have come to expect.|Not knowing distances of nearby towns, hours of operation of on-site restaurant, are basics that all staff should have knowledge of.

One of the few good hotels opened in March in Puglia. 5 min from the San Domenico golf course. The breakfast was amazing, I would say one of the best in Italy. Spa, small: facilities need to be booked in advance. Our ground suite was spacious but dark and overpriced for the season. Staff was very nice.

Lunch in the restaurant and tour of the garden. Tasty local cuisine and wine. Only annoyance was no wine list on table. Paid €12 for a single glass of Primitivo red, when others in group had a full bottle for €28.

Nice people very delicious food customize approach to customers approach to customers very interesting food . unique place I would say location on Architect

This restaurant honestly served the best food I have had in Italy. The homemade pasta was insanely delicious, the fresh catch fish cooked covered in salt; OH MY GOD!!!! It was the best fish meal I have had in my life. Even the waiter Mario was so professional explaining the food, you would feel like you're on tv show trying the food. Just go and enjoy!!!

Not being Italian, I have never associated elegance with farming. No, this is not a palazzo in Venice but no other word suffices in describing this working farm, related to any other farm I have seen. We stayed 4 nights and used a rental car we picked up in Bari and dropped off in Lecce to visit 1-2 neighboring towns a day. None of the towns would have served as well as a base. Breakfasts were on a par or better than the other places we stayed which were more expensive. Staff was uniformly friendly, capable and available. The cooking class we had at the masseria was the best of the 3 we took in Puglia. Rooms were large, comfortable, and functional and furnishings were farm chic. The dining room was equally filled with locals and guests which ts unusual in our experience.

This converted masseria is renowned as one of the best hotels in Puglia region of south Italy. The masseria dates back to 16th century, with most of the original features preserved. It started as a local farm and for some time its tower served as an observation base of Maltese knights overlooking the sea to spot the Turkish invaders and Saracen pirates. The tower suite I stayed at is styled in a highly traditional manner and, as well as antiquated furniture and old tapestries, it contains a genuine fire place with the fire wood, which we used to light up every evening. It also offers views toward the sea shore and the surrounding countryside full of olive farms. The main hotel is located about a mile from the sea shore, but they have their private beach that you can drive to. There is also a sizeable swimming pool and a sunbathing area at the masseria. They also have one of the best restaurants in Puglia, offering the traditional local dishes prepared up to the highest standard, with only the best quality local seafood and other ingredients. The masseria is located in the middle of Puglia countryside, surrounded by various traditional farms. This makes a stay here particularly intriguing. After all, there are very few places left in Western Europe where people grow their own tomatoes and potatoes. The closest substantial town is Fasano, just a five minutes drive away, which, despite the relatively remote location, offers some good restaurants and designer boutiques. Further up the hills, there is a famous town of Alberobello, renowned for its unique trulli houses. There is also one of the region's best golf courses at the sea shore just a few miles away, as well as an executive course within a walking distance to practice on. Overall, this luxurious hotel offers a highly comfortable and relaxing atmosphere within the unique location in south Italy and is especially perfect for a calm get away from the big city environment. The prices are indeed fairly high, especially by the local standards, but in my opinion it is definitely worth it.
