Perfect Welcome and Beautiful Home
A wonderful welcome, a beautiful and special house — perfectly equipped, extremely well maintained, and spotless clean. Impeccable service. Many thanks to Chiara for the help she gave us with every need — always going far beyond her duty, with great kindness and professionalism.
A little piece of paradise
A little piece of paradise in the heart of the Salento countryside
My stay was simply perfect. The property is immersed in nature, cared for in every detail, with spacious, peaceful areas tastefully decorated.
A special mention goes to the service: flawless in every way.
All the staff were helpful, discreet, and attentive, making me feel welcome from the very first moment.
A highlight of the experience was the dinner hosted by Mrs. Annarosa: an absolute delight.
Simple yet flavorful dishes, prepared with local ingredients and served with genuine warmth.
A moment that will remain one of the fondest memories of the stay.
Highly recommended. I will definitely be back!
We loved the house !
Renovated with all modern comforts but kept the rustic charm. It was a very peaceful and relaxing stay. The back garden with pool was a dream. Highly recommended to add the breakfast option. Ada the housekeeper prepared an extraordinary breakfast table for us daily! Would book again next time we are in Puglia.
Exceptional
An incredible location, exceptional service, exceptional cuisine and ambiance. Very close to Otranto, Madeira, etc. Highly recommended for families and friends.
An exceptional experience at Masseria Torre Ruggeri
Everything was perfect. We received a very warm welcome from Chiara, who is absolutely wonderful and speaks excellent English. The decor of the masseria is original and unique, combining comfort and authenticity far beyond what the photos can convey. Every detail has been tastefully considered by the owner, I believe. The daily housekeeping is impeccable, and you really feel at home… only better 🙂 A place I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend, ideal for a stay in Puglia. A car is essential to explore this incredible region.
A Paradise in Puglia
We have visited Maison Fenestraz in Argentina for over 20 years — the incomparable El Colibrí, which we’ve always called Elysium, our personal paradise. We never imagined the Fenestraz family could create anything better. We were wrong. Masseria Torre Ruggeri is the natural progression of perfection — another paradise they’ve brought to life, this time in the heart of Puglia. Tucked in the countryside yet within easy reach of Puglia’s ancient villages and cities, the house feels like a home. Every detail is flawless, and every wish is instantly fulfilled by the wonderful staff. Each morning began with a sumptuous breakfast prepared in the garden, and one evening we enjoyed a private chef’s dinner that was unforgettable. The incredible team curated our entire stay — organizing day trips, booking restaurants, and even reserving beach chairs. After visiting Italy more than 30 times, we can say that Masseria Torre Ruggeri represents the very best of Italy: serene, sublime, and deeply personal.
An exceptional villa
Firstly, the Masseria is better in real life. The pictures don’t do it justice! We stayed there for 2 weeks in July and it was the best service, communication and offering we’ve ever had from any rental holiday property we have ever stayed at. Chiara, the masseria manager, was extermely helpful before and during the trip. The services offered at the villa are hotel quality. We booked the chef and local cook several times and would highly recommend it. Chiara had great local restaraunt recommendations too. The property itself is stunning and massive. We went for evening walks in the olive orchards and there are several outdoor spots for aperitivo. I’d 100% recommend this villa for your next holiday!
Our stay at Masseria Torre Ruggeri was incredible
The house, elegant and ultra comfortable, is perfect for relaxing and recharging your batteries immersed in nature. The pool is magnificent. The location is ideal, close to wonderful beaches. I highly recommend it !
What an extraordinary place
This Masseria is not your typical countryside villa — it’s truly an artist’s home, full of creativity and soul. Each room feels like a chapter in a living gallery, with colors, textures, and stories everywhere you look. It’s beautiful, inspiring, and totally different from anywhere we’ve stayed before. We also chose the breakfast option, and we were greeted with a table full of fresh delights. The new pool with Jacuzzi was a dream. Next time we’ll stay longer !
Exceptional experience and service for our family stay in the Masseria
We absolutely loved our stay here. The house and property were exceptional and the staff were very helpful and amazing. We would definitely stay here again !
