Emanuel was a superb host. My wife arrived after having a spell in an Italian hospital, quite unwell. He did everything he could for us, for example driving us into Locorotondo town so she did not have to exert herself. He also organised a gorgeous lunch for us and the grounds of his property are beautiful and relaxing. It made for an excellent few days.

Emmanuel, avano, jot and Maria Paula were absolutely incredible. Emmanuel’s parents were even visiting - Guido and Mercedes - and they were amazing people. The whole place is like a family and we were treated like family. Sure - we were the paying guests - but I truly believe we’ve become lifelong friends - even in light of the 5 questions I asked Emmanuel each day. The property, room, service is perfect. It is one of the most relaxing and beautiful locations at the bottom of locorotondo. Highly recommend. I could write for days. We’ll be back and will recommend to others.

Everything. From the moment we arrived until the moment we left we were treated with the utmost care and attention. Everything was perfect. The location is stunning especially the grounds, the accommodation, the pool area- in fact everything. There is nothing we would change and we would absolutely love to return. The view from the hotel to the old town is stunning and can be easily reached by a safe country path- maximum 15 minutes walk. The attention to detail by the owner is first class and anyone visiting this hotel will not be disappointed. We are currently in a 5 star hotel in Lecce and this hotel is an equal match!

I'm amazed with the beauty of the place and the attention of the owner. He surprised me with a birthday cake on my birthday and every detail of our stay was perfect. It was such a magical moment and the best experience ever. I highly recommend it.

Nothing except you have to have a car to go anywhere - Emmanuel the owner of this masseria is incredibly kind and thoughtful and he would personally drop us or pick us up from a few places and did not charge for this service which i thought was very generous of him .

Almost everything ! Stunning property

Nothing! It was incredible.

We loved everything about our stay, it’s one of the most beautiful properties we’ve been to. Located just out of town (a very short drive or 15 min walk), the property looks back into Locorotondo- the view is stunning! Emanuel, Mariapolo, Evano and the team are welcoming, friendly and went out of their way to ensure we had a wonderful stay. The beds were extremely comfortable, the room was immaculate and the buffet breakfast was delicious! We loved the thoughtful touches such as pancakes with little smiley faces for the kids, and including a little surprise for the kids with the turn down service. I would highly recommend this property, and we hope to return again one day!

There is nothing not to like about this property.

The Masseria Grofoleo, is a beautifully presented property. The rooms are lovely, cool & calming interiors & well appointed; the gardens are stunning with the view of the pretty town of Locorotondo from pool & breakfast area. Emanuel, Mariapoalo & Evano are the perfect hosts. Nothing is too much trouble. We were there with family & friends & they made us feel very special.

A very peaceful and luxurious place to stay. The fact it was walking distance from Locorotondo was a real plus to enjoy diners in one of our favourite city. How to leave a message on what we like the most without speaking about Emanuele and his crew. Always there with a smile to make your stay unique. A huge thank you to you and your team Emanuele ! Ah yes and the breakfast wee amazing!

Even today, we remember those days with great joy. Breakfast was amazing, with lots of delicious things that we loved from the very first moment. The fruits were fresh and sweet, just wonderful! The coffee smelled so good and gave us energy to start the day. The rolls were soft inside and crispy outside – you just wanted to eat them slowly! Everything we ate and drank had a special flavor, which made breakfast something really lovely that we enjoyed together. It was a great way to start the day, peaceful and happy. The place where the hotel was located was perfect. It was a little far away so it was quiet, but also close enough to go and see places. All around there were lots of green trees and plants, and beautiful colorful flowers. Going to the center was like a nice walk that we loved. When we entered the hotel, we felt peace, as if time stood still and we could really rest. We still remember all of that very well, and yes, we miss it a lot. It was a spectacular place, just what we wanted to be together and have beautiful memories.

There is no better place than Masseria Grofoleo and no more gracious host than Emanuel, who, along with his loyal companion, Evanno, will go to great lengths to provide the best possible stay. Our accommodation was comfortable (and incredibly fragrant) and had a balcony with a beautiful view of the city of Locorotondo, just a few minutes’ walk from the Masseria (also, Alberobello and Monopoli are two other beautiful cities nearby). Breakfast, served in a glass-enclosed veranda, lets you start your day surrounded by nature and the stunning landscapes of the Valle d’Itria. By the way, Emanuel’s mother’s homemade jams are fantastic. Everything was simply perfect. For two days, it was our little piece of paradise (crowned with a special dinner that Emanuel and Evanno prepared for us on the last day). We will return, and it won’t take long. Thank you to everyone at Masseria Grofoleo for the warm hospitality and kindness.
