Masseria Torre Maizza is located in the most glamorous destination on the Italian Adriatic coast. Inspired by the sensational landscapes of Puglia and the ethos of Rocco Forte Hotels, it exquisitely blends local heritage with contemporary luxury and unparalleled service.
The original architectural structure of Torre Maizza Masseria begins at the centre of a large estate on a hill, dominating the Mediterranean Sea, just one and a half kilometres from the coast. In the 16th century, Torre Maizza Masseria was a look-out tower against Ottoman and Saracen raids, and today has become a refined 5-star luxury resort.
Overlooking the ancient orange grove and its fragrant buds, it is a setting for a unique protagonist: Mediterranean cuisine.
Surrounded by ancient olive groves, the renovated 16th century masseria is filled with thoughtful design accents and details to create a unique sense of place, from the stunning Olga Polizzi-designed rooms and suites to the romantic sunset rooftop bar and elegant restaurant overlooking the swimming pool. The resort also features a 9-hole executive golf course, a private beach club and an indulgent spa.
Our elegant Superior Rooms effortlessly blend local features, from hand-embroidered linens to warm timber accents, with contemporary amenities. All of the rooms feature a chic sitting area adorned with sumptuous textiles, and spacious bathrooms crafted from local Trani stone and outfitted with our exclusive Irene Forte Skincare products. Some also offer the splendour of a private garden with sun loungers and views out over the lush olive groves, the sleek golf course or the glittering Adriatic. For added decadence, the hand-stitched throws on the supremely comfortable super king-sized beds herald a night of deeply restful sleep.
Our generous Deluxe Rooms elegantly marry contemporary sophistication and Italian style, with hand-embroidered linens on the sumptuous super king-sized bed and Trani stone adorning the spacious bathroom. Lavish textiles can be found throughout the chic sitting area and bedroom, while contemporary comforts are provided with luxurious Irene Forte Skincare products in the bathroom, sleek sun loungers in the spacious private garden and service-forward amenities throughout. With stylish local touches in the decor and views out over the verdant olive groves, the rolling green of the golf course, or the sparkling waters of the Adriatic, our Deluxe Rooms are a beguiling expression of southern Italy.
Our spacious Junior Suites elegantly marry the masseria’s original features, including a stunning vaulted ceiling, with contemporary design accents. Decorated with local objects d’art, stylish cane furniture and atmospheric rattan light fixtures, these suites bring the Puglian landscape within their stylish walls. Beautiful local Trani stone is used in the generous bathroom, while the addition of our luxurious Irene Forte Skincare products promises extra pampering. For added decadence, step out into the sublime surrounds of your private terrace and garden to relax on a sun lounger, enjoying views out over our ancient olive grove, the rolling green of the golf course, or the glittering Adriatic.
Spacious and refined, our Deluxe Junior Suites with Terrace and Garden feature stunning heritage accents preserved from the original masseria, including sweeping vaulted ceilings, as well as lavish open-air spaces. These suites all offer the luxury of private gardens, outfitted with sun loungers and a chic sitting and dining area, and stunning views out over the Puglian countryside, while some further add to the decadence with private roof terraces. Inside, the suite is adorned with sumptuous textiles and local objects d’art, bringing the splendour of Puglia within its stylish walls. The generous bathroom is crafted from local Trani stone and features luxurious Irene Forte Skincare products, which, like the super king-sized bed, promise pampering and deep relaxation during your stay.
Our chic Deluxe Suites with Plunge Pools, decorated in a serene palette of natural shades with stunning Puglian objects d’art, feature stylish design accents and heritage features like the masseria’s original vaulted ceilings. The peaceful bedroom, outfitted with a sumptuous super king-sized bed and hand-stitched throws, promises restful slumber, while the generous sitting room offers a stylish place to unwind with its curated collection of furniture. The bathroom is crafted from local Trani stone and features a selection of our exclusive Irene Forte Skincare products, made using hand-picked Sicilian botanicals. For added pampering, these suites also have spacious private gardens with sun loungers and a decadent heated plunge pool with views out over our olive grove.
Found on the top floor of the masseria’s tower, the Torre Suite is Torre Maizza’s most impressive accommodation. This magnificent two-bedroom residence is decorated in shades that evoke the dusky hues of the olive trees outside, the blue of the nearby Adriatic Sea and natural tones of earth, citrus and stone. Local Trani stone has been used to craft the generous bathroom, with its decadent bathtub, walk-in shower and luxurious Irene Forte Skincare products. Puglian objects d’art and hand-embroidered textiles abound, adding local colour and flair to the elegant space, while the private terrace looks out over the surrounding countryside, towards the coast. With its chic dining area and sleek sun loungers, the terrace is ideal both for stylish entertaining and low-key family dinners, or simply basking in the warmth of the Italian sunshine.
From the hand-embroidered linens and stylish cane furniture to locally sourced timber accents, the beauty of Puglia is stylishly woven throughout the décor of our serene Grand Suite with Terrace Garden and Plunge Pool. Walk through the elegant living room with its well-appointed dining area, ideal for entertaining, past the bedroom with its sumptuous super king-sized bed, and towards the terrace doors. Step out to enjoy spectacular views of Puglia and the verdant, rolling sweep of the golf course from your private garden, perhaps sharing a meal with guests in the open air or taking a dip in your private plunge pool. Back inside, the opulence continues in the spacious bathroom. Outfitted with local Trani stone and exclusive Irene Forte Skincare products, it features a decadent freestanding bathtub, as well as a walk-in shower.

His Opinion: Overall our stay was amazing! It is a beautifully managed property with outstanding staff. I will recommend it highly for sure!
A couple of suggestions however: In 2017 women should be able to see the menu with prices...after all many of us are the breadwinners! Secondly when offered fresh fish the maitre'd should advice of the price. We requested a fish that turned out to be bream and it was beyond tiny and 45 euros. We questioned it and immediately the price was adjusted but even at 27 euros it was about 4 bites.
Secondly it would have been nice to know that the spa had a jacuzzi; we were not told and only found out at checkout. After the many miles walking through the multiple towns and villages it would have be perfect.

His Opinion: Lovely resort and impeccably trained restaurant staff. The unwelcome surprise was your trying to bump us to your more dated sister resort of Coccaro at 3 days notice, citing an electrical fault. Not what one would expect of a 5 star resort. Your staff handled this well when we refused to switch but it left a bad impression.
