Masseria Del Gigante

An elegant country house, an intimate home in the Mediterranean maquis of Salento

The new Italian Dream of the Fenestraz Family

Masseria del Gigante is a place that has everything to make you feel at home. Purity, simplicity, and peace are what keep the house together in harmony.

This Maison is a 300 sqm typical Southern Italian country house immersed among the olive groves of Apulia, near the wonderful beaches of the Adriatic coast. With its 5 en-suite bedrooms gracefully decorated and its wide spaces indoors and outdoors, it’s the ideal place for families and groups of friends who are seeking elegant rural simplicity.

The house has a slow living spirit and it will make you find a natural life rhythm. In the hottest days, a beautiful swimming pool and waterfall shower installed in an authentic Trullo – a traditional Apulian dry stone hut with a conical roof – will refresh you while you will enjoy throughout the year the seasonal fruits and vegetables grown on our land and seasoned with our extra virgin olive oil.

From Masseria Del Gigante it will also be easy to discover all the gems that surround it. Located in the province of Lecce, the heart of Salento, you will have an infinite number of places rich in authentic beauty and flavors to discover. Whether it’s a walk among the olive trees, a ride on the rocky coast of Sant’Andrea or an evening of culinary delights at a folk festival, the region of Salento will surprise you and it will make you enjoy its simple “Dolce Vita”.

  • Review from our latest guests – July 2023

    I am writing to express my heartfelt gratitude for the truly exceptional experience my family and I had during our recent stay at your luxury villa in a farm. It exceeded our expectations in every way, and it was our absolute honor to have had this remarkable experience.

    What truly made our stay stand out was the extraordinary dedication and warmth of your staff. The people who work in the villa and on the farm are undoubtedly the heart and soul of this remarkable experience. Their genuine hospitality, friendly demeanor, and passion for their work were evident at every interaction.

    Moreover, the farm-to-table experience you offer is truly unparalleled. The freshness and quality of the produce we enjoyed during our stay were outstanding. The culinary delights prepared by the talented chef were beyond compare, making each meal a delightful experience for our taste buds.

    In addition to the exceptional hospitality, we were delighted by the impeccable cleanliness and hygiene maintained throughout the villa. The cleanliness standards were noticeably above normal, and it greatly contributed to our peace of mind and overall satisfaction.

    However, it was after having the privilege of meeting the owners, that we truly understood where all this wonder came from. Your vision, passion, and unwavering commitment to creating an extraordinary experience for your guests were evident in every aspect of our stay. The care and love you invest in the villa, the farm, and the team were truly inspiring. It was an honor to witness firsthand the source of the magic that permeates every corner of this remarkable place.

    We will forever cherish the memories we made during our stay. Thank you once again for creating such a memorable and enchanting experience.
