Masseria Donna Menga, a proud member of The Leading Hotels of the World, is an ancient 16th-century fortified farmhouse located in the countryside of Nardò. This 5-star luxury hotel is the perfect synthesis of rugged Salento rural architecture and refined interior design, offering a stay where silence and the beauty of the Mediterranean scrub are the true protagonists.
The conservative restoration preserved the imposing Leccese stone walls, star vaults, and ancient fireplaces. A unique hidden gem is the secret walled garden, where guests can stroll among fragrant citrus groves and centuries-old plants. Rooms and suites are furnished with natural fabrics and local crafts, blending technological comfort with historical charm.
The outdoor pool is an aesthetic masterpiece, perfectly integrated into the surrounding landscape. Surrounded by light stone solariums and twisted olive trees, it offers a refreshing escape during hot Apulian days. A highlight is the poolside lounge area, where you can enjoy cocktails made with herbal infusions grown directly in the property's garden.
The cuisine is a tribute to Apulian tradition, reinterpreted with extreme elegance. An unmissable highlight is the traditional cooking classes organized for guests, where you can learn the art of handmade orecchiette. The extra virgin olive oil produced by the Masseria is the star ingredient of every dish, ensuring authentic and genuine flavors.
Located just minutes from the crystal-clear waters of Porto Selvaggio and the Baroque center of Nardò, the Masseria offers a perfect balance of exploration and relaxation. Guests can use complimentary bicycles to explore rural trails or request private tours to discover Lecce and Gallipoli, experiencing the true essence of Italy's heel.
