Masseria Palombara is the story of the restoration of an authentic Apulian ‘masseria’, a limestone farmhouse originally built between the 17th and the 19th century in Oria, in the heart of Salento.

Surrounded by 100 hectares of unspoilt nature, olive, almond and palm groves, Palombaro is a haven for lovers of relaxation, wellness, genuine food and excellent wines.  All the rooms have a star or barrel-vaulted ceilings in limestone, white-washed walls and vintage furniture, with hot water and electricity produced with the power of the sun. In this part of the Masseria there are 9 rooms, including the Palombara Pool Suite with its secret garden and a small waterfall Jacuzzi outdoor pool.  In the old part of the Masseria, besides the rooms you will also find the Reception, the wine bar, a shop, the restaurant, a gym, an outdoor cinema, an archeologic site and a small boutique SPA where both your body and mind can be helped to relax with organic olive oil based spa treatments. 

Hospitality at Masseria Palombara starts in the garden and continues at the kitchen table.  Our dishes originate from our passions, from our family’s tales and traditions, from the gifts of our land. Our cuisine is about tradition and evolution, tireless selection of the best local produce and carefully matching it with the excellent wines that our territory has to offer.

Masseria Palombara is a luxury resort, but in its own unique and unconventional style, the perfect place to lose and then rediscover yourself, listening to the rooster singing in the morning, picking a fig straight from the tree, watching expert hands making pasta… That’s why there no are televisions in our rooms and we are an adult-only resort.
