Masseria L’Antico Frantoio Hotel Summary
The Masseria L’Antico Frantoio Hotel is located in the famous seaside town of Gallipoli, surrounded by the lush countryside of the Salento peninsula. What was once a 17th-century mill, has now been lovingly turned into a traditional, rustic haven offering modern amenities and a serene wellness area and spa. What’s more, it’s only a few steps from Gallipoli’s beaches.
The Hotel
We love the tucked-away location of this small but beautiful hotel. We could while away hours in the pretty gardens under the shade of the olive trees. Most of all, we love that the Masseria L’Antico Frantoio Hotel positively reflects all that is genuinely Italian. Here, you’ll find a residence of local stone, a quintessential Italian garden heady with the scent of rosemary, mint and lavender and an elegant restaurant that boasts Italian cuisines prepared with fresh, locally sourced ingredients. Throughout your stay, you’ll experience a warm welcome and impeccable service that is indicative of true Italian hospitality. Of course, no trip the hotel would be complete without a visit to the Spa. Nestled away in the caves of the original mill, you’ll find intimate treatment rooms where indulgent therapies and relaxing massages take place in the gentle glow of scented candles.
Rooms and Suite
The Masseria L’Antico Frantoio Hotel offers only seven rooms and a separately housed Suite. Thus making an ideal location for a small group ‘buy-out.’ Rooms boast a Salentinian charm, but at the same time, they provide high-quality amenities and much comfort. Meanwhile, the Imperial Suite is wonderfully located in a separate building, tucked away in a charming corner. Here, the bedroom offers views of the coast and the ancient watchtower, perched high up on the cliff.
Weddings
As one would imagine, weddings at the Masseria L’Antico Frantoio Hotel are traditional in style while rustic and bohemian in appearance with an intimate, nostalgic atmosphere. The gardens are ideal for hosting small, romantic events. The attentive team of staff are on hand throughout to ensure that your dreams of a pretty, classic Italian wedding are brought to reality.
