Masseria Borgo San Marco

Really welcoming hotel, friendly service, we were made to feel special. In beautiful surroundings, we were not close to any of the hustle and bustle of town, but it is close enough to both the sea, as well as the small town of Fasano. Our only issue was the limited and expensive menu, which did not change (whilst we were there). However, we definitely recommend it for anyone staying for a week or less. Felt very peaceful and tranquil

Amazing place. Great staff and very relaxing. Dinner was very good as well and service was great.

Not what we expected- we were in accommodation described as a “junior suite 200m from main building.” This is a cave like building consisting of 2 small beds, a sink, kettle and coffee making machine in the first part. Then a double bed and TV followed by a shower, toilet and sink. Literally one long room with nowhere to sit and absolutely nothing to call luxury. Certainly not what I call a suite.The whole building was very cold and an extra blanket was provided when requested. The outside space was in need of a good clean and on the edge of a quarry so not at all picturesque. To walk to the main building was very rough territory and no lights at night - I did mention this to the receptionist who said she would look into it. The pool is fine for children but as it is very shallow really not for swimming. We ate in the restaurant one night of our 4 night stay and for €50 per person found it rather expensive. You can only eat from 830-900pm so everyone arrives together. There is nowhere nearby to eat so you need to drive to find alternative eating places. Breakfast was adequate but nothing special and the same every morning. The one redeeming feature is the staff who are very polite and friendly but I feel this really is not 5*accommodation. Luckily the rest of our Puglia accommodation was much more comfortable. My feelings are the “junior suite” needs some TLC to meet the 5* description. However I appreciate that we all have different standards - just not for us.

Amazing stay.

Beautiful Masseria! We stayed there say after amour wedding and it was perfect. Food is amazing! only negative thing was that room was bit cold, we stayed in late October. will be coming back in summer. Overall, one of the best Masserias I have ever been to.

Borgo San Marco is within easy reach of Bari or Brindisi airports. It is surrounded by olive trees and an ancient wall. The first six nights of our stay were in the wonderful apartment ‘La Isola Piccola’ which is located in the middle of an olive grove - this was absolutely perfect to unwind in almost complete isolation. We spent the last two nights in the magnificent apartment ‘Cavaliere’, which is part of the main historic house. We arrived at Borgo San Marco as guests, but we left as firm friends. The staff were amazing and all deserve special mention (Carmen, Lucrezia, Rosanna, Ilaria, Giusy, Natasha, Vito, Gianmario & Fernando). We didn’t meet the kitchen staff, but we can say that the food they produced and the hospitality that we enjoyed throughout our stay was absolutely superb, whether it was breakfast, lunch or dinner. We have no hesitation whatsoever in recommending Borgo San Marco very highly indeed to all who read this review. It was a superb holiday and within reach of so many beautiful places in Puglia. We will definitely return.

We stayed here for 3 nights; its a good way to explore this part of Puglia. The Borgo is well maintained and the rooms are in style and cool. The pool is divine! We have two young kids but I noticed the borgo is mainly visited by couples which is fine but if you are looking for kids distraction, there is just the pool! The breakfast is good and we enjoyed lunch here once which was homemade and delicious!

Posto meraviglioso, curato nei minimi dettagli immerso nel verde. Atmosfera rilassante, camere spaziose, pulizia accurata, staff gentilissimo e servizio impeccabile. Piscina esterna incantevole. Area spa rilassante. Consigliatissimo

Au beau milieu d'une Oliveraie plus que centenaire s'élance une magnifique battisse aux couleurs ocres, qui semble dater de siècles lointains, mais superbement entretenue. Dés l'entrée dans le bâtiment né un sentiment de quiétude et de bien être, l’accueil y est parfait. Nous entrons dans notre chambre "Pastore", suite standard, et toujours le même sentiment. Tout est propre, la salle de bain, pas immense mais fonctionnelle, suffit à notre besoin, les serviettes y sont changées tout les jours. A l’extérieur une très belle piscine originale avec une plage et de nombreux fauteuils et matelas pour se relaxer (prêt de draps de bain possible) puis un parcours de jogging permets de faire le tour de l'oliveraie. De retour dans la battisse se trouve le bar ouvert toute la journée (café, thé, apéritifs, ...) ou quelques canapés nous accueils confortablement pour l’occasion. Ensuite il y a la salle à manger d’intérieure (une terrasse couverte est également disponible pour les soirées d'été et les petits déjeuners) magnifiquement décorées. Chaque soir un diner copieux et raffiné avec des produits frais y est proposé (à réserver chaque jour, 50 €/pers hors boisson). Pour finir sur l'établissement, l'ensemble du personnel y est absolument charment et disponible. Idéalement située à une vingtaine de minutes de Monopoli et d'Alberobello (Trulli) et une petite heure de l’Aéroport de Bari (prévoir une location de voiture si vous souhaitez visiter la région). Si vous souhaitez visiter les Pouilles, alors n’héritez pas, vous ne devriez pas être déçu.
