We loved it all. The pool was particularly beautiful and relaxing. Our room was spotless and very relaxing.

The staff -- particularly Silvia -- went WAY OUT OF HER WAY to make our stay pleasant and easy. She worked so hard to inquire with us if we needed anything. One night we were so tired from the day that we decided to order some food and eat at the Masseria. Silvia was so helpful in that -- and oddly enough -- that was one of the most memorable evenings of our trip. Can't say enough positive about how helpful she was.

Very welcoming staff and beautiful pool and room The highlight was the amazing breakfast. It’s one of the best breakfasts I have ever had in Europe!

the only thing what was a bit disappointing was that the invisible road near the hotel could be heard. When sitting at the pool.

What a lovely place. And what a lovely staff. They made our staY unforgettable. Doing so much more than expected. Thank you again!!

Beautifully appointed. Staff was amazing. The best breakfast we have ever had in all of our global travels. Would have been amazing if dinner there was an option as, again, the cook was amazing!

I could not recommend this hotel more highly. Everything about it is amazing. The rooms are extremely comfortable with everything one needs. The breakfast is delicious and more than enough to satisfy my needs. The pool area was a lovely place to unwind after our busy few days exploring. The staff are helpful and charming.

No local shops or restaurants. Had to travel into Lecce every night.Taxi €20 each way. Bring bug spay.

Staff went out of their way to make your stay perfect. Rooms beautiful and clean. Grounds and pool area very relaxing.

I would have liked to be able to take public transport into Lecce, I had to drive, to walk would have been too far.

The masseria was lovely, very comfortable and the staff could not have been nicer, more efficient, or more helpful.

It would be hard to say that there was something we didn't like here. The only thing you might want to consider if staying here is that food options are a little limited as the day goes on so if you plan on spending an afternoon in sitting around the lovely pool, then perhaps make a stop for some provisions in town the day before. That being said, if you're happy to snack on some classic charcuterie and cheese, maybe some olives and Tarralli, then they will have you more than covered.

Upon approaching Paralupi you may not think much - or perhaps that you are even in the right place - but once that gate opens that will quickly change. It is a beautiful property with ample space to sit and relax and enjoy your escape in Southern Italy. The rooms - and whole property for that matter - are a wonderful mix of modern comfort and authentic masseria. The staff there are wonderful and very helpful, Silvia took very good care of us. The breakfast is excellent way to start your day before you head out and a nice bottle from the wine room is a perfect way to finish it when you return. Can't say enough about how much we enjoyed our time here. Would return in a heartbeat.

You definitely need a car for this property although it is only a 5 minute drive into Lecce. I would say the property is more suited to older children and adults. The immediate area surrounding the Masseria is pretty desolate but once you are in the walls of the property you will not notice!

The Masseria is absolutely beautiful. It is immaculate and so beautifully curated. Our room was huge, had air con and a large sofa bed to accommodate two adult children. All the bedding is very comfortable and lovely quality. There are only 5 rooms and so the whole place emanates calm. The pool area is beautiful and there are also a couple of lounge rooms with comfy sofas. The breakfast was amazing! Beautiful home cooked food. The rooms were serviced everyday. All the staff were really friendly and helpful and made a lot of good suggestions. It is a great base to explore Southern Puglia.

We loved all of it.

This is an exceptional property and a holiday experience curated with the upmost care. A beautifully renovated 16th century Masseria, stripped backed to its bones and then furnished with local antiques and subtle mod cons for added comfort, it feels like a luxury villa with bespoke service. Silvia, Elena and Renata make everything seem effortless and provide a flawless experience from start to finish. We were a party of eight with several last minute changes as well as children of different ages and yet every single one of us was delighted and would return in a heartbeat. Absolute high point of our trip!

Property was so serene and beautiful....Instagrammable moments at every turn. The pool was perfect and rooms comfortable and chic. Silvia was so helpful with ideas for our itinerary to get the most out of our time. Breakfast was delicious and it was so close to old town of Lecce, we went in every night for dinner.

Having to pack our bags and leave ………truly wonderful Puglian hospitality Grazie a tutti I nostri nuovi amici 😎🍷

This meticulous renovation of a traditional Puglian Masseria ( fortified farmhouse complex ) provides a homely yet sophisticated base to explore nearby Lecce and other beach and mountain cities of the heel of Italy .Boutique property with just the right number of rooms , gorgeous pool and tranquil kitchen garden areas . Fabulous stonework ,super comfy beds and modern bathrooms with style. Generous daily buffet breakfast prepared by the lovely cook Laura made this a delicious exploration of typical local dishes with produce from the Masserias expansive walled kitchen gardens , as well as the options of a Puglian specialty menu private group dinner and / or regional wine tasting in the rustic Taberna . The caring and super efficient Elena and Silvia went above and beyond in ensuring every detail was covered to perfection during our 5 night stay . We miss the pampering already :)

Masseria Paralupi is situated just outside of the beautiful city of Lecce. From the very first moment you feel welcome - not only the location itsself - it is a feast for the mind and eye and has its own cultivated areas, it's also the team that makes the masseria a special place. every morning elena provides you with first class information and recommendations on local features, attractions and restaurants, renata and mauro spoil you with a breakfast with specialities from Pulgia and friendly morning talks. The suites - only 5 in total - are generous with all the comfort you expect, the swimming pool is the perfect spot to relax and cool down.

We had an amazing stay at Masseria Paralupi. Elena, Mauro and all the staff were so helpful and truly couldn’t do enough for us. Would definitely recommend if you have a car as you are only a short drive away from Lecce and beautiful beaches. Thanks so much for having us!
