Masseria Montelauro is the new entry for summer 2024 from Uvet Hotels.
The farmhouse building dates back over a thousand years
Opened last 26 April, the Salento property has 29 rooms, including a junior suite, with a ceiling in Lecce stone and a view of the orchard. Situated in the open countryside in an olive grove, the complex has a vegetable garden and an orchard typical of an Apulian masseria farmhouse. Built in the year 1000, it was first a place of meeting and prayer for monks and later became the monastery’s herbalist shop. It was renovated in 2001 thanks to a project that rigorously maintained the typical characteristics of local rural buildings. It has an Historic House designation and has received the Fabbrica del Paesaggio award from UNESCO.
The restaurant has a menu with local specialties
Guests can enjoy the swimming pool, the lounges and the flowering pergolas. There is also an area dedicated to wellness for facial and body beauty treatments. The Fimmine Restaurant specializes in traditional Salento dishes with an international touch. The menu is sourced from local producers or from the adjacent vegetable garden and orchard.
A 100-room resort hotel in Erice close to Trapani
The Baia dei Mulini Resort & Spa, on the seafront at Erice in the province of Trapani, also reopened on 30 April. This resort hotel has 101 rooms, including two suites with views of the sea, the swimming pool or the garden.
