- "Giuseppe and Fernando and their parents were exceptional hosts. The property is beautiful and in a great location." - "We stayed 2 nights in the Giangiacomio Dell'Acaya room at Pascaraymondo Suite Palace and were absolutely thrilled with our choice. The vaulted-ceiling room is spacious, elegant, beautifully decorated with antique and modern furnitures, the bed is very confortable. The bathroom is modern with a big shower and all necessary amenities, fluffy towels and slippers. Everything was pristine clean. Breakfast was amazing, with a-la-carte choice of locally-sourced sweet and salty products and housemade delicacies by Rafaella (the mum-in-chief of the house :-) ). Rafaella made us taste the fresh riccota she uses. It was still hot from being made and we had never tasted something so good ! Breakfast is served either on the rooftop terrace with a breathtaking view on the gulf of Gallipoli or in the main foyer, surrounded by centuries-old frescoes ! The palace is ideally located in the heart of the old town, steps away from the beauties of Gallipoli (cathedral, churches, old palaces...), restaurants and bars, the beach and parkings. Yet, we found the place serene and peaceful for a good night sleep. But the heart and soul of Pascaraymondo Palace definitely resides in the amazing family who runs the place, Mimmo and Rafaella and their two sons Giuseppe and Fernando. They will all go the extra mile to make your stay a moment to remember ! Giuseppe and Fernando are some outstanding young men, very dedicated to their guests with all the energy it takes to provide you with all necessary information from day one, great advice on restaurants (Amu Fish was our favorite !) and anything you could ask for. Communication was flawless ! Mimmo is passionate about the history of his hometown and will tell you everything about it. He took us on an improvised tour of the city and we couldn't have had a better guide ! Rafaella will make you feel at home with her great cooking and generous smile."

- "Lovely atmosphere & surrounding. Excellence breakfast & friendly owners." - "We spent almost a week in this lovely little house and were absolutely enchanted – it’s one of the best places we’ve stayed in Italy. With Waze it was easy to find, and the host kindly reached out in advance to make sure everything was clear. The masseria is set in a beautiful landscape, with traditional stone houses and the peaceful charm of a typical Puglian village. It’s quiet and relaxing, yet the town is just nearby, with shops and restaurants within about a 20-minute walk. The house was spotless, well-kept, and very cozy. We had a fully equipped kitchen to cook our meals, and a large pergola where we enjoyed our evenings. The host was extremely helpful – he gave us great tips on where to eat, which beaches to visit, and the best places to park. We truly felt taken care of. His lovely beauty wife prepared amazing breakfasts – I’ve never had such delicious cakes! And there were also savory options, perfect for those who prefer something different than the usual sweet Italian breakfast. If we ever get the chance, we’ll definitely return. We highly recommend this masseria to anyone visiting Puglia, especially the Salento region – it’s a wonderful place to relax and enjoy an authentic experience. Thank you so much, Francesco and Paoletta! ❤️"

The hotel itself is small enough to make you feel it’s almost a bespoke holiday designed for you - even when every room was full we never sensed it. (You won’t need to chase for the best positioned sun lounger round the beautiful pool set in the most delightful gardens as there are enough for everyone ) The hotel is an extremely old palace beautifully converted - it’s located in a quiet village but perfect to go off exploring nearby walled towns. Nardò was my favourite. Breakfast in the courtyard (I can recommend the omelette with sweet red onions and ham). Lovely dinners in the garden around the beautiful gardens. Serena and her team all work tirelessly and it shows - and those who are animal lovers will get to meet Mimi, a cat that stole my heart. Thank you for a beautifully relaxed 5 nights - it was just perfect."
