Masseria Auraterrae

From the moment we arrived we knew this was a special place. It started with the welcome at reception and the tour of the property and our rooms. We were a group of 11 ranging in age from 23 - 60 and we all felt comfortable and relaxed during our stay. Our breakfasts were delicious as were the poolside meals and we enjoyed the most delicious dinners at Masseria Auraterrae. Attention to detail is everything - our daughter celebrated her birthday during our stay and received a special treat at breakfast! We loved our pre dinner drinks with Saverio, the breakfast boxes we were given for our early departure and the attention to detail at all times.

That we only stayed for a week - we wish we were there longer and we will be back!

Richtig schöne Anlage, sehr gepflegt, ruhig. Mit 2 Pools. Der Service ist schnell und freundlich. Es gibt nichts Negatives zu erwähnen.

This was the final 3 days of our 2 week southern Italy vacation. We wanted a place to use as home base to visit the towns within an easy hour drive. The problem occurred when we arrived and didn’t want to leave the property. It is hard to describe but equivalent to Castello Banfi in terms of service and attention to detail. The place is immaculate and breathtaking. The service is second to none and the views are out of this world. I wish I could describe it better but you have to see to believe. This was part of a trip where we had 5 star hotels in Capri, Amalfi and Lecce. All were incredible but this may have been my favourite. Spend 5 day please. Say hello to Roberto the donkey and take a bike ride please. The staff although new were incredible and genuinely happy to help in any way.

The room, hotel, and surroundings were incredible but what we will be talking about for years is the service. Not sure if I can say names on here but the very personable lady who checked us in (the one that had formerly worked at Disney) was so incredibly helpful, giving us a tour of the whole property upon our arrival which is quite large and giving us many recommendations for our few days in Puglia. The head of the bar program (the one who had previously worked in London) was so passionate about his craft, making very unique cocktail made almost exclusively with ingredients of Puglia or even the property. Some of the best cocktails we have had and great company too. This hotel is first rate and the best hotel we have ever had the pleasure of staying in, it doesn't get any better! We were quite sad to leave and say goodbye to the staff, thanks again for the great experience.

Beautiful location, friendly staff, great food. Loved it!!

Masseria Auraterrae was one of the most exceptionally beautiful places I’ve ever been. From the moment I was greeted in the driveway by the manager Franco to the moment we left it was a dream. No detail was spared in the reimagination of the property - the incredible grounds and buildings, the room design and furnishings, the menu and food, the service. All of this and more made for an incredible experience. We can’t wait to come back next year.
