About Masseria Torre Maizza

Exclusive to Citalia in the UK, the chic and contemporary country retreat of Hotel Masseria Torre Maizza is located within an exquisite expanse of century-old olive groves.

This ancient masseria has been beautifully restored in a sophisticated style and is the sister hotel of the successful and much loved Hotel Masseria Torre Coccaro.

The well-appointed guestrooms throughout the Hotel Masseria Torre Maizza are decorated to a high standard, with a fresh use of neutrals and colour. Especially luxurious are the spacious Suites, each with their own private swimming pool

The large estate, which opened in 2006, includes a 9-hole executive golf course overlooking the sea and a further range of golfing facilities. For some additional relaxation, head to the ancient watchtower to find the Hotel Masseria Torre Maiza's Aveda Spa, with its extensive list of treatments that use the estate's natural produce.

From its days as an ancient 16th watchtower during the raids of the Ottoman and Saracen Turks, the Hotel Masseria Torre Maizza has been beautifully brought into the 21st century as an luxurious beach and spa retreat.

About Puglia

Puglia, an awe-inspiring region steeped in rustic mystery and culinary legend is baked by the noonday sun and caressed by murmuring waves. A sun-scorched vista depicted by rugged and densely wooded mountains, fertile plains and a thriving coastline, refreshed by rolling surf, tranquil rock pools and perpendicular fishing harbours.




MONOPOLI

The delightful coastal resort of Monopoli boasts a lively port and pretty historic centre. Its large central piazza is lined with bars and cafés.

TORRE CANNE

With its beach of soft, golden sand and excellent spa facilities, the attractive seaside resort of Torre Canne was once a little fishing village. It is well-placed for visiting the 'White City' of Ostuni, just 11 miles (18km) away.

SAVELLETRI DI FASANO

Known for its excellent seafood, Savelletri di Fasano is a fishing village, ideally situated for exploring both the coastline and interior landscapes of central Puglia.

ALBEROBELLO

The 'trulli' capital of Puglia, Alberobello is decorated by these unusual whitewashed limestone dwellings, whose conical roofs create a dramatic skyline.

SELVA DI FASANO

Between the sea and the hills lying on Puglia's fertile plains is the whitewashed town of Fasano.

OSTUNI

The exquisite little town of Ostuni is situated close to a tranquil stretch of coastline. It is known as the 'White City' because of its whitewashed streets and buildings.

LECCE

From the heart of the deep south of Italy, Lecce is to the Baroque as Florence is to the Renaissance. It is famous for its wealth and finest examples of Baroque architecture.

OTRANTO

Greek in origin, the walled city of Otranto is not to be missed. It also makes an ideal base for exploring the eastern peninsula and southern cape of Italy steeped with many golden, sandy beaches.
