Reviews of Masseria Elysium

Breakfast was good and on time every day

We discovered this hotel by chance because our flight from Brindisi was cancelled . It is exceptionally beautiful situated within an olive plantation . It has a beautiful pool - the rooms are gorgeous , tasteful and really stunning . I would be quite likely to book a room there if I wanted to get away from it all . The staff are exceptional - going out of their way to make your stay as easy as possible . I was actually blown away by their kindness, professionalism and help in a situation which was thrown upon us ( flight cancelled at midnight).

They do have lots of drivers to take you where you want to go but you would otherwise need a car .

Very nice and quality hotel close to Brindisi! Friendly staff, nice rooms and very good restaurant! We will definitely come back!

Stunning hotel, impeccable gardens, great rooms. A special mention for Federica at reception. Lovely and superhelpful.

Location and surrounding

Some small things such as no toilet roll holders or hooks for wet towel in bathroom which could easily be rectified as new rooms

Amazing swimming pool, the people working there were friendly. The spa was nice as well.

We had broken glass in our shower. My partner had glass stuck in her foot after showering. We told the staff and they said they'd take care of it. Afterwards there was still glass in the shower (less than before, but still quite some glassshards). In the evening we went to the restaurant. Only one vegetarian option. After trying to communicate with the waitress (which wasnt possible as she only talked Italian, which we didn't) they sent the chef who at least made my partner something vegeterian as a starter, so we could both eat a starter. Half an hour into dining, a private party for a big group of people started with a host that would announce things incredibly loud through some speakers. My partner and i had to flee because we couldnt hear eachother anymore. The staff offered us a complementary bottle of wine for the trouble, which we never got.....

Staff was amazing. They prepared a lovely early breakfast bag for me and gave me lovely tips for the city. Lovely food and the rooms were nice and clean.

The pool area was very crowded but it had nice pool beds.

Pool area nice

Food standard was good and pricey for what you got ( swordfish pasta was tasteless and chewy) rooms very hot air con not very strong and too far out of town/village min 10 min drive you would need a car taxis expensive

The staff, the pool area, the location, the breakfast.

Very nice, cosy, clean. Swimming pool and surrounding is splendid.

Breakfast was great, scrambled eggs included, offered in a very elegant glass-walled hall, looking on a very green all-around scenery. Deborah was very attentive and helpful. The Masseria is situated outside Mesagne on a very large property very well taken care of. there is also a huge swimming pool and a very pleasant staff.

the steak i had on arrival could have been better prepared

The entrance to the Masseria was heavenly, lined with beautiful olive groves and peach trees, it felt like I was driving up fantasy lane! Upon arrival the staff welcomed us and showed us to the room, it was immaculate, honestly you could eat off the floor it was so clean, the decor was excellent, all amenities you can think off were available, the beds were super comfortable and the bathroom was great! You step outside the room and the pool greets you with otherworldly blue hue set against a vivid green background, the garden/farm is very well kept, I don't think I've ever seen grass so green in my life 😍 I would definitely stay here again, matter in fact, I'm going to start planning my next trip back here i loved it so much. The hotel restaurant had a small menu but excellent food with all ingredients I believe were from the farm, so couldn't get any fresher, over all I would say 10/10

Nothing, absolutely nothing..... maybe the Internet at the pool as the Social media login system to the free wifi was not working, but you know what, with views like this place has... you don't need Internet

Pool area is nice. Breakfast was good.

Dinner was a big disappointment. Restaurant staff is not very friendly. Restaurant area is very noisy.
