Masseria Ayroldi

My family and I spent one week at the Masseria Ayroldi in Ostuni, Puglie. An 18th century estate recently renovated into a spacious, elegant resort in the heart of the Puglie region of Italy. The property is surrounded by a wall that was designed at the time to fend off brigands. Today, it gives the place an air of secluded elegance that makes it really special. 19 rooms all different from one another, all finely appointed: you will surely appreciate that modern buildings do not hold a candle to 3 centuries of history and culture. As I said, the place is beautiful but what makes it your home away from home is the care with which Debora and her family take care of their guests. ‘Pamper’ is actually a better word. You start the day with an amazing breakfast with fresh fruit, eggs, focaccia and a varying collection of home-made cakes and tarts, as well as a wide selection of cookies and pastries. Fresh fruit and vegetables from their garden. Cappuccino and espresso flow liberally as well as a battery of fresh fruit juices. If you choose to hang around for lunch, typical Puglia delicacies can be had under the pergola by an amazing pool. Check out the pictures. A great place to spend time in the afternoon. Dinner is a culinary experience, with a curated menu accompanied by a high quality wine list of local production. Every day, Debora and her team went out of the way to accommodate our family’s various allergies and dietary requirements. The term ‘hospitality’ takes a new meaning at Masseria Ayroldi. Thank you Debora, I look forward to coming back!

We had the most amazing time! The staff was so accommodating to all of the woman we hosted on our yoga retreat. It was the perfect place to unwind, do yoga, study self love and visit the beautiful region! Thank you to Debra and the entire staff for making all 24 of us feel at home and cared for. You will always hold a place in our hearts!

Masseria Ayroldi is the perfect retreat if you’re looking for peace, quiet, and beautiful surroundings. Tucked away about 10 minutes from the charming historic center of Ostuni, the location offers true relaxation while still being close enough for a quick visit to town. The design and construction of the Masseria are absolutely stunning—authentic yet modern, with attention to every detail. The breakfast area was spectacular, offering fresh, delicious options each morning. And surprisingly, the American coffee was the best we had during our entire trip through Italy! It’s the ideal place to disconnect, unwind, and enjoy the beauty of Puglia in a serene setting. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a quiet, stylish countryside escape.

The pool and overall environment was lovely.

Attentive staff. Beautiful grounds Great restaurant for breakfast and dinner. Perfect location for surrounding area. Caio’ Bella.

Just Amazing! Our stay in this gorgeous Masseria was the best. Our room was in our own stone small building and the interior is beautiful and clean. But the best part is by far the friendliness and great service of the staff and of the family who owns the Masseria. The food is also amazing! We will definitely plan to go again!
