Masseria Gagliardi is a beautiful place, offering a wonderful blend of charm and hospitality. From the very first messages, communication with the owners was incredible — full of helpful information and quick responses. Check-in was the easiest I’ve ever experienced, and they even had our room ready earlier than the official time. The detailed photos and videos made everything simple, and anytime I needed something, they replied immediately. The pool area is lovely, though it could use a little TLC to make it as inviting as the rest of the property. Breakfast was okay — the attention to detail in the cutlery and plates is admirable, but the food itself felt a bit underwhelming. Small things, like boiled eggs from the previous day still being served, took away from the otherwise high standards. Their restaurant, however, is absolutely exceptional — a must-visit! The food was fantastic, and their own wine was truly impressive. When back in the Taranto area, I would happily return to Masseria Gagliardi. With a little more attention to breakfast and the pool area, this place could be perfect. ⭐⭐⭐⭐

This was my favourite stay of our 10 day cycling holiday in Puglia (different accommodation every night) and we stayed in some lovely places. The Masseria is a delight, beautifully renovated and spacious. Fabio was the perfect host and both our dinner and breakfast were delicious. A great stop-over. Highly recommended.

Location, staff, everything was so beautiful!

This is a beautiful renovated Masseria in the Puglian countryside within a 20 minute drive of Taranto (well worth visiting) and near other pretty villages so a good place to centre oneself while exploring Puglia. It was quiet when we visited and sadly their restaurant was closed … fortunately Fabio the owner came up with some great local recommendations so we didn’t go hungry!! I believe there are only 3 rooms : our was large, light and airy with good furnishings and a very comfortable bed. The bathroom was big with plenty of hot water and towels. There’s a spacious living area to be shared with other guests however, our room was large enough that we felt comfortable staying within! Fabio was extremely helpful, always available and a mind of information. Parking is inside the walls and secure. Breakfast was served in the restaurant and provided both plenty of sweet and savory dishes. One thing I would ask management : please provide soap/shower gel dispensers!

This is a beautiful location and beautiful grounds. The rooms are located in an old villa that has been completely refurbished. The rooms are large and comfortable with nice decorative touches. We also had dinner at the hotel and it was quite delicious. Fabio and the staff are very helpful and accomodating.

The breakfast was plentiful but it could have included more fresh food - a lot was pre-packed. There was no juice and no toaster and when I asked for an egg I was told the kitchen was not open. Meat and cheese were not covered and flies were landing on it.

The Masseria is a beautifully restored building and the bedroom was excellent - very good decor and bright and spacious. Fabio was very helpful and gave us a very good welcome. Didn't use the pool but it looked gorgeous.

At this price level, anything can annoy you. The toilet seat in one of the rooms was broken. Unfortunately, it was not replaced even in 4 days. There were no glasses in the kitchen, e.g. wine glasses. Has the Olive sign indicating the room disappeared? The beds were a bit soft for me (not worn out!), but there was a noisy film on it that was annoying. They didn't clean for 2 days, they didn't even take the trash out of the room or the common kitchen.

Masseria Gagliardi has extraordinary properties, a wonderful building, garden, illuminated pool, rooms, furnishings, give a special atmosphere. There were also modern elements such as WIFI, air conditioning, TV, etc... The breakfast was delicious, ham, cheese, cakes, fruit, vegetables, excellent coffee. All of its elements are truly commendable.

Breakfast in comparison to other stays is basic but I get that with only 3 rooms it is not viable to put on massive spread that could be wasted. It is sufficient with croissant, ham, cheese, fruit etc so I think I am being very picky in leaving this comment.

Loved it all, the design of the masseria is beautiful. Bed was incredibly comfortable. It was perfect for us as we wanted a quiet relax to start our holiday and this was it. We basically had the pool to ourselves every day and it is gorgeous. The highlight though has to be the food in the restaurant at night, beautiful 😍

We did not meet a single person during our stay including check in and check out. We were hoping for a special and typical masseria experience including learning some history about the property and try some of the local cuisine however everything was done remotely so it all felt very impersonal - just felt like a fancy hotel. The restaurant was also closed however we were never made aware of this and only found out as we had contacted the host at about 7pm asking about some dinner recommendations (of which there are very few). Location is average. To be honest the rating I've provided is purely because the room itself was so lovely but the experience overall was not worth the price - from what I could see you can stay in a much more authentic and special Masseria further in the south for the same or cheaper price.

The room and facilities at this Masseria are beautiful. Very large room, obviously freshly renovated space and exceptionally comfortable bed and pillows. The pool is lovely and has nice lounges and umbrellas for guest usage. Breakfast was nice - pretty standard Italian style with some pastries and fruit.

Just a small detail but the pool was some ropes around it that are not so aesthetic.

I don't even have words to describe this Masseria! OMG, what a magical place! Since the moment you arrive until you leave, every moment was just perfect. We had dinner at the hotel and it was one of the best meals we had in our trip for a very good price, also with a great environment with lights and a beautiful decoration in every corner. The room was so big and comfortable, clean and fresh. The breakfast is also very well served with a lot of options. Fabio was a very great host, worried about us because it was a storm in the area and he let us know so we could arrive safely.

The Masseria is very beautiful, together with the surroundings. Amazing swimming pool and terrace. Bedroom was big and well decorated and equipped. We would repeat!!

The restaurant was exceptional, it was just unfortunate that the days we were there, it was only open once, as we would have happily had dinner there every night of our stay!

Absolutely stunning place to stay. The staff, especially Fabio went above and beyond to accommodate us. The room was huge and very comfortable. The restaurant was superb, one of the best meals we have had in Italy.

The attention to detail in this place was amazing. The room was equipped with everything we needed and we were surprised by how quickly it warmed up. The building is beautiful and unlike any accommodation we've stayed in before. Fabio was kind and welcoming and gave us helpful tips. Unfortunately, the restaurant was only functional on one evening for dinner throughout our stay. The citrus tress in the garden, the architecture, the music - all of these made us feel like we were in a story.

Not a thing.

Beautiful converted farmhouse. The attention to detail was immaculate and the pool was a lovely bonus. Fabio was a charming host.

The swimming pool closes at 6 PM, which is a bit early.

The hotel is located right in the middle of the fields. The setting is idyllic. There is ample parking available. The staff is pleasant.
