Masseria Moroseta

Hotel Guide

Facilities

• The Masseria offers an intimate selection of rooms and suites, each opening onto private gardens or stone terraces.

  • The Aesthetic: True to its minimalist roots, the rooms feature cool stone floors, high vaulted ceilings, and a neutral palette. Expect a curated mix of vintage finds and bespoke local craftsmanship.

  • The Suites: At 45 sq. meters, the suites offer a private living room with a fireplace—perfect for shoulder-season escapes—and expansive private outdoor spaces.

  • Amenities: High-speed WiFi (for those who must), air conditioning, organic bath products, and a communal pool that is a triumph of geometric design.

Wine & Dine: The Moroseta Kitchen

• Food is not just a service here; it is a philosophy. Under the direction of Chef Giorgia Eugenia Goggi, the kitchen has achieved cult status.

  • The "No Menu" Concept: Guests are invited to trust the chef on a gastronomic journey. There is no set menu; instead, meals are dictated by the morning's harvest from the biodynamic vegetable garden and orchard.

  • Cooking Classes: An immersive full-day experience where you pick your own ingredients and learn the art of "contamination" in cooking—blending Puglian tradition with global techniques.

  • The Table: Most meals are served family-style on the long communal table, fostering a sense of community that is the hallmark of the Moroseta experience.

Wellness & Activities

• The Pool: A long, sleek stretch of turquoise water set against the brilliant white stone, the pool is the social and visual heart of the property.

• Yoga & Retreats: The Masseria frequently hosts curated yoga and wellness retreats, utilizing the roof terrace or the quiet corners of the olive grove for sunrise practice.

• Boat Excursion: For a change of pace, spend a day on the hotel’s private Riva Turbo Rosso, exploring the hidden coves near Gallipoli with chilled wine and local focaccia on board.

Dresscode

• Minimalist & Laid-back. Think linen sets, canvas sneakers, and a wide-brimmed straw hat.

Budget

• Rates start at EUR 350 per night.

Boat Excursion

• Their boat is a Riva Turbo Rosso, a classic Italian motorboat from the 1990s. The experience is scheduled after breakfast, to arrive at Porto Gaio in Gallipoli at 10/11 am. You will be able to swim, sunbathe, and enjoy the most beautiful views in total relaxation and exclusivity, away from crowded beaches and loud places, during the trip. Local products, focaccia, and chilled wine will refresh you during the day. Return to Porto Gaio is planned for 5/6 pm.

How to Get There

• The New Connection: Starting in June 2025, Neos Air offers the first-ever direct nonstop service from New York (JFK) to Bari (BRI).

• Fly: The Masseria is just 35 minutes from Brindisi Airport (BDS) and 1 hour from Bari Airport (BRI).

• The 84 Rooms Tip: Rent a vintage Fiat 500 for your stay. Navigating the narrow lanes lined with dry-stone walls is infinitely more fun in a classic Italian car.
