Masseria Mongiò dell'Elefante

Gorgeous pool great proximity to the beach too!

We had a great, great time at Masseria Mongiò. We booked one of the larger rooms, which featured two separate rooms with en suites and a small kitchen. We were travelling with my parents and this allowed us to be independent and have some privacy. The location is excellent: immersed in the countryside and literally just a few minutes from the beautiful beach of Baia dei Turchi. Everything during our stay was perfect. The room is very practical, beautifully thought out and spotlessly clean. The breakfast is glorious, with a wide range of food that changes every day. And the pool is fabulous. I want to single out two things. Food is exceptionally good: we stayed at the masseria for two dinners and the food was truly fantastic and very good value. But what really made our time at the masseria feel extra special was the staff: from the moment we arrived, everyone worked extra hard to make us feel welcome. They are very hard working, kind and welcoming, and very attuned to a guest’s needs - they do it all with great care and passion. We couldn’t recommend this place enough and we are already thinking about going back.

Nothing: 10/10!

Oaza ciszy i spokoju. Świetna baza wypadowa na wycieczki do Otranto, Santa Maria di Leuca, Il Ciolo itd. Piękny basen i ogród. Bliskość lokalnych sklepów ze świeżymi owocami i warzywami, uprzejmy i pomocny personel - polecone wycieczki, restauracje były znakomite. Kilkuminutowe dojście do plaży. Bardzo dziękujemy

Brak dobrej restauracji, w szczególności brak możliwości zamówień a la carte (teoretycznie można coś zamówić, ale jest to jednak zawsze zagadka i z reguły chłodna). Dojście do plaży jest bardzo zanieczyszczone / brudne (to raczej nie wina ośrodka, ale bardzo zniechęca do odwiedzania plaży).

Unfortunately we booked deluxe junior suite based on photos only expected marble steps leading to upstairs bedroom however that led to spiral metal stairs higher than shown in photo. Not suitable for elderly guests
