Masseria Grieco

The staff were extremely nice, the rooms very comfortable, and breakfast was the best I’ve ever had. There are just a few things they could improve, which we’ve already mentioned to them directly.

The pool area is clean and roomy, with plenty of loungers and side tables. There are shaded and sunny seats throughout, including spots under the trees, egg-chair swings, and seating around the bar. Drinks are good and fairly priced, though there’s a 3 euro per person service charge. That’s not much if you order food or a few rounds, but it makes a 3 euro cappuccino cost 6 euros. The pool slopes in gradually at the shallow end and reaches 5 feet at its deepest. There’s also a walking path and animals. Driving through the gate and along the quarter-mile walled driveway to the secluded resort feels like arriving somewhere royal. The grounds are gorgeous, with lush plants and neatly kept grass. Reception was welcoming and informative. The rooms are comfortable and thoughtfully laid out, WiFi works across the grounds, and the pool and bar have plenty of space.

A great place to unwind by the pool. We stayed in the suite, which had a large terrace overlooking the pool. Breakfast was nicely presented and enough to get by.

We had a lovely stay. The pool is big, which suited me since I like swimming long distances. Lunch under the olive trees was really nice. Dinner had a beautiful feel to it, with a gentle Mediterranean breeze, fresh country air, and just the right temperature.
