More and more travelers from Italy and around the world are discovering and falling in love with Puglia — for its climate, its people, and its flavors. Beyond the seaside towns and picturesque villages, the region reveals its most authentic self deep within its red earth, where the countryside is generous and time seems to stand still.
Here, in the countryside of Fasano, among ancient olive trees and dry stone walls, Masseria Salamina offers an immersion into the rediscovered beauty of a bygone era. A noble residence and working farm since the 1600s, today it is a place where hospitality is an art, simplicity is a luxury, and every detail tells a story rich in uniqueness.
Accommodations for every type of traveler
This corner of Puglia—just a sea breeze away from the endless blue of the Adriatic—welcomes all kinds of travelers: solo tourists, families, couples, seasoned explorers. One of the great achievements of the De Miccolis Angelini family, owners since 1986, has been their early understanding of these diverse needs and the careful restoration of the historic property to meet the expectations of the modern traveler.
Honoring both the story of simple life in the Masseria and the history of the original watchtower, built during the Aragonese rule in Puglia, the family has created three distinct types of stays, each offering its own unique experience.
Rural charm and restored authenticity
In the northwestern wing of the Masseria, once home to the old stables, you’ll find the loft-style rooms with mezzanine. Fully equipped and thoughtfully furnished with a touch of contemporary design, these spaces retain their rural charm with exposed local stone and original skylights.
In the northeastern wing — formerly the sheepfold and hayloft — travelers can enjoy the two-room apartments, comfortable one-bedroom apartments with a kitchenette, private entrance, and outdoor area. Choose between ground-floor accommodations beneath the arches of the portico or upper-floor units with views of the sea or the centuries-old olive groves.
A true noble residence
The soul of Masseria Salamina reveals itself on the main noble floor, where the late 19th and early 20th-century aristocratic apartments have been lovingly preserved. These now house manor’s rooms, signature suites where guests are immersed in the refined elegance of Puglia’s Belle Époque. Expect antique furnishings, coffered ceilings, original wallpapers, and mosaic marble bathrooms — all without compromising the modern comforts of a luxury stay.
Authentic experiences in taste and nature
A stay at Masseria Salamina is enriched by a variety of authentic experiences—journeys into the tastes, scents, and traditions of the region. Guests can enjoy professional extra virgin olive oil tastings, tours of the organic garden and ancient olive groves, Puglian cooking classes, sunset aperitivos with estate wines, and starlit dinners in the historic courtyard.
Moments of pure relaxation, among the pool and Mediterranean gardens
Of course, no luxury stay would be complete without the comforts demanded by today’s travelers. To complement the experience, guests of Masseria Salamina can unwind by the scenic pool nestled in the estate’s heart or take peaceful strolls through citrus groves, vineyards, and flowered courtyards.
Live your Puglia, the Masseria way
One of the most beloved destinations in recent years, the central Adriatic coast of Puglia is a heartfelt choice for those seeking real moments and lasting memories. It’s a journey suspended between history and nature, in the authenticity of a Masseria that has never stopped living—and inspiring.e ed emozionare.
