Masseria Palombara is the story of the restoration of an authentic Apulian 'masseria, ' a limestone farmhouse originally built between the 17th and the 19th century in Oria, in the heart of Salento. Not too far from the sea, it is surrounded by 100 hectares of unspoiled nature, olive, almond, and palm groves. We host lovers of relaxation, wellness, real food, and excellent wines. There are 18 rooms and two suites, a restaurant serving fresh produce from our farm, a wine bar, two swimming pools, a gym, an outdoor cinema, an archeological site, a shop, and a small boutique spa where both your body and mind can relax with organic olive oil-based treatments. All around us, you will find the best Puglia has to offer: amazing sandy beaches; the handmade, colorful ceramics of Grottaglie; Lecce and its unique baroque style; the caves of Matera; Alberobello and its 'trulli;' the patron saint celebrations; the pizzica dance; and the wine cellars full of Primitivo wine in nearby Manduria. Masseria Palombara is a luxury resort with a unique and unconventional style—the perfect place to lose and then rediscover yourself while listening to the rooster crow in the morning, picking a fig straight from the tree, and watching expert hands make pasta. That's why there are no televisions in our rooms, and we are an adult-only resort.
