"This hotel is a truly unique find. Most hotels in the 4-star category resemble more of a 3-star experience, whereas this one feels more like a 5-star hotel. It’s even more beautiful in reality than in the pictures. The rooms are exceptionally clean, spacious, and airy, with views of the pool, well-maintained gardens, and the sea, or of gardens filled with cacti and stone walls. The staff is fabulous and speaks excellent English. The poolside bar serves the best drinks in the area, along with great whiskey for the discerning palate. The restaurant, nestled among cacti and a blooming garden, offers gourmet dishes at surprisingly reasonable prices. This is the place to go for a romantic getaway or to relax and perhaps read a book in the shade under the trees in cozy chairs. We were here at the end of August and had the pool almost entirely to ourselves. This hotel is for adults; relaxed, elegant, and a hidden gem just up a hill and away from the tourist traps along the coast. If you have a car, you can reach the nearest beach in just a few minutes. I love the sea, but I found it magical to return to the hotel's peaceful and expansive grounds each evening. If you want to see famous landmarks like Galipoli, Lecce, and Monopoly, both on Italy’s most beautiful beaches and cliffs, while avoiding tourist traps, this is the destination for you. Outstanding beaches, cliffs, and renowned cities just a short drive away, as well as small, authentic cobblestone villages with narrow streets."

"It was a beautiful week, the staff were very welcoming and helpful. The rooms are new and very quiet and a few steps from the beautiful swimming pool. I highly recommend this place for those who want to relax and the location allows you to reach the most beautiful beaches and Santa Maria di Leuca in 5 minutes."

"Family dinner: hot and cold seafood appetizers and crudités. spaghetti with amberjack, fig and honey semifreddo, all while sipping a great Teresa Manara Cantele Chardonnay. All super wonderful staff, food and environment."

"My partner and I chose Masseria Palane for our first stay to discover Salento. A magical place, meticulously cared for down to the smallest detail by a family-run business that made us feel right at home. It's located in a very picturesque and strategic spot; in the evenings, we took wonderful walks along the Via delle Pietre, under a starry sky, reaching the town center where there are traditional restaurants. A special mention goes to the breakfast, with the opportunity to enjoy local specialties, excellent homemade cakes, and savory options cooked to order. We can't wait to be there again!"

"Beautiful structure on the seashore with private parking, recently renovated, it has spacious and modern rooms with large bathroom and double shower. The welcome from Ada and her collaborators was super. The continental breakfast includes cakes made by Ada, citrus juice, jams, yogurt, fresh bread, cold cuts. The fish-based cuisine is also excellent. A high score also for the cleanliness of the room."
