Abate Masseria & Resort

We booked this resort with another couple because we wanted to travel around the area. What a beautiful place! The owners were waiting to welcome us and our rooms were gorgeous. My husband and I also had a small twin bedroom attached to our main bedroom, and we used it to spread out our suitcases, etc, though there was plenty of closet space in the main room. We were lucky with the weather and used the AC at night, which was easy to operate and functioned perfectly. The shower was great with very good water pressure and I always love having a robe and slippers, both of which I used. Both nights we asked the owners to help us, first with a recommendation for dinner reservation in Noci, 5-10 minutes away by car. Easy in the daytime, but we wanted to enjoy the wine and not worry about getting lost so they drove us and picked us up for a very reasonable charge. The name of the restaurant is L'Antica Locanda - it had a wonderful tasting menu for 40 euro, with 9 euro bottles of great house wine. So much food! The next night we wanted to do a cooking class and again it was arranged very easily and professionally for us, this time we were picked up and driven back by the cooking class owner (Anna, whose business is called Anna The Nice). We highly highly recommend this class, which was tailored to our schedule and our cooking interests. Thanks Cristina and Angelia for arranging this for us! Breakfast at the restaurant was delicious, full of traditional Italian foods as well as American favorites. Coffee was made to order - we're very picky coffee drinkers and it was delicious. Service was great, professional and friendly. We only wish we could have experienced dinner at the restaurant at Abate Masseria, but we knew it was likely closed in October. The pool was lovely and we sat out for relaxation since we didn't bring suits. Finally, the location was great for day trips to Noci, Monopoli, Alberobello and Ostuni. We had a car so it was fairly easy with. I'd recommend using google maps and map out a parking place so you don't aimlessly drive around looking for parking. I highly recommend this resort - the owners bent over backward to ensure a great experience. Sleeping in a Trullo was a once in a lifetime experience. Thank you so much for the memories!

A delightful stay in a peaceful setting but close to Noci for eating out in the evenings. Cristina and Angelica are so friendly and helpful and made us feel ‘at home’. The accommodation and grounds are spotless and there is a beautiful pool area. We also found that Abate Masseria is in a good central location to visit the whole area. We were very sorry to leave.

We returned here after 7 years to be welcomed by our friends Christina, Angelica and Mino ,what a joy to see them again . This was a relaxation break before travelling on to our son's wedding nearby. What can I say other than the stay was perfect, nothing too much trouble and it was every bit as good and even better than our first stay. There are some people that make life a joy to be with and the team here are wonderful ,helpful and friendly. Thanks for a wonderful experience and hope we don't leave it another 7 years before returning. We had two very good meals one at the restaurant on site and another in Noci . This Masseria is a tranquil oasis to relax and recharge your batteries.

We had a wonderful 5 night stay at the Abate Masseria and wish we could have stayed longer. Christina and Angelica are so warm and welcoming, it felt like staying with family. We stayed in a 2 room Trullo with our 3 children and it was perfect for us. The buildings and the grounds are beautiful and the pool was larger than I expected. We had the fortune to dine there one evening and the food was delicious. Restaurant recommendations for Noci and Alberobello were also fantastic. It is such a special place to stay and we would all love to go back!

Very beautiful place in quiet location. Very convenient as close to Alberobello. People working there were very nice and helpful. We stayed in a troli, was perfect for 2 adults and 2 kids. Spacious and clean.

Stayed in a beautiful and relaxing Trullo. Amazing owners and staff. So accommodating and we were made to feel at home. Nothing was ever too much. Easy journey from Bari airport. Mia enjoyed her time.
