Masseria le Carrube

Location: The property is highly praised for its picturesque and serene location, surrounded by ancient olive groves and close to Ostuni and other attractions in Puglia.

I definetly think this property doesn’t get the attention it deserves. We stayed in a family suite in Le Carrube and had a second room for my parents - both rooms were great but room 16 ( suite) was fabulous. huge by italy standards and perfect for a family of 4 with plenty of private space for kids. Immaculate and clean. Aside from the picture perfect location the staff couldn’t Be nicer , more interactive or efficient. they made it impossible to have complaints. On one night when we were too tired after a boat trip they set up our courtyard like a beautiful restaurant for room service . we also got to experience a euro cup game / pizza party in the olive groves that was a highlight for my soccer loving son. I felt as if I was at a private villa- the staff : anna, Pietro, Matteo and many others went above and beyond. I would only wish there were some more activities or food options on site. with being so far from other towns: properties they need to offer more on premises. when I inquired about things they said they offered ( olive oil, wine tasting) they deferred me to a 3rd party who 1) took weeks to respond and I already had plans and 2) wanted me to go elsewhere and it was quite costly, Also, you can use borgo egnazia beach clubs ( also fabulous) but I realized after any one could and would pay the same amount. they should offer a discount or at least complimentary transportation ( a courtesy car or town shuttle would be fabulous here ) . regardless I would recommend this property in a second to anyone!

We've been lucky enough to travel all over the world, and this is one of our favorite places. They get everything right: The staff is friendly, the rooms are charming, the whole space is almost overwhelmingly gorgeous. (And the vegetarian tasting menu at the restaurant was great, too!) We'll definitely be back.
