Masseria Auraterrae

We went on a family trip (our children are in their 20s) and had a most magical time! The grounds are so beautiful and everyone we interacted with on staff was so warm, welcoming and caring. The food was delicious (be sure to try the Friday night pizza night) and the bartender, Saverio, is the best! It is off the beaten path, but so worth it. Would definitely go again.

From the moment we arrived we knew this was a special place. It started with the welcome at reception and the tour of the property and our rooms. We were a group of 11 ranging in age from 23 - 60 and we all felt comfortable and relaxed during our stay. Our breakfasts were delicious as were the poolside meals and we enjoyed the most delicious dinners at Masseria Auraterrae. Attention to detail is everything - our daughter celebrated her birthday during our stay and received a special treat at breakfast! We loved our pre dinner drinks with Saverio, the breakfast boxes we were given for our early departure and the attention to detail at all times.

The personal touches throughout our stay made this such a memorable place! We had a beautiful room with oversized private terrace, their pools are beautiful and relaxing, and the food was very good. We spent 3 nights here and utilized their connections and help to book a great boat day, dinners out, and a beach afternoon. We also enjoyed their spa. By the time we sadly had to leave we felt like we had friends throughout the resort with all staff members! Also, their private and personalized cooking class was a highlight of our trip. Thank you all!!!

Excellent room, staff, service, food, amenities, setting. Everything done at an exceptional level. Staff so accomadating, free shuttle bus into Polignano A Mare. Perfect hotel ro unwind & relax. One of the top 3 hotels I've stayed in worldwide. Favoloso.

We spent 5 nights at the Masseria and absolutely loved every minute. My wife and I spent our professional careers working for a major US based international hotel company, and were enormously impressed with every aspect of our stay. From the accommodations, to the food, to the landscaping, to the views of the Adriatic we give this resort 5 stars. Above and beyond that are the employees who delight you at every moment. Congratulations and thanks to Masseria Auraterrae for such a memorable stay.

I just left Masseria AuraTerrae after a 5 night stay. The space is beautiful, the views are beautiful , the food is divine and the landscaping is perfection. However the #1 thing that make this hotel amazing is the employees. They have the perfect mix of professionalism and comfort. They made us feel comfortable and part of their family right away. This is a newer luxury hotel in the area so has not had many reviews on here. If you have any plans to visit Puglia and even if you do not- book a stay here immediately. I am confident that in a few years you won’t be able to get a room. Feel free to reach out if you want more details or have questions.

Un luogo meraviglioso e nello stesso tempo autentico, dove rigenerare se stessi immergendosi in un ambiente ideale. L’attenzione all’arredamento è sorprendente come anche per il cibo. Le attività da fare fuori non mancano e il magnifico staff è ben lieto di presentarle, ma la masseria offre già incredibili momenti.

La location esterna è ben curata, così come gli spazi interni. Il menù della cena permette la scelta di piatti alla carta o un menù degustazione di 4 piatti a scelta (dal costo di 80euro). Non abbiamo optato per la degustazione e abbiamo scelto 5 piatti (tra primo e secondo) e 2 sorbetti. La qualità del cibo è ottima, così come il servizio della cena. L'unica pecca, che ci ha fatti andare via con l'amaro in bocca, è stata al momento del conto. Ci hanno consegnato un conto che teneva conto di 2 menù degustazione (8piatti) - anziché i 5 piatti e due sorbetti ordinati - e quindi più alto del dovuto. Quanto l'abbiamo fatto presente al cameriere si è giustificato dicendo che con questa opzione (2 degustazioni) avremmo speso di meno, cosa non vera che abbiamo fatto notare. Abbiamo chiesto di rifare il conto che, OVVIAMENTE più basso di quello consegnatoci. Quando ci è stato consegnato il conto corretto non ci è stata fatta nemmeno una scusa, gesto che non abbiamo gradito per nulla. Posto che l'educazione e la correttezza dovrebbero essere alla base di qualsiasi servizio di ristorazione, in una masseria 5 stelle è imprescindibile. "Furbate" come queste non dovrebbero mai capitare e se capitano è bene chiedere scusa. Peccato.
