Masseria Bandino & Spa

Masseria Bandino & Spa

10/10 Excellent
"Situé en pleine campagne mais à quelques minutes d’Otranto, cet établissement permet une pause tranquillité et quiétude entre deux visites de villes remplies de touristes. Le site est charmant (paysage, piscine, bâtiments, salle à manger), la chambre est propre, confortable et comprend toutes les commodités attendues, dont une petite terrasse permettant de prendre l’apéro. Le coup de coeur final a été le repas sept services au restaurant de la Masseria. Une cuisine raffinée et goûteuse, quel délice!"
