Masseria San Domenico Golf Resort Apulia

Fasano - Brindisi - Apulia - Italy

Halfway between Bari and Brindisi on the Adriatic Coast, Masseria San Domenico lies at the heart of the Apulia region, forming the "heel" of the Italian "boot". This luxury Hotel and Thalassotherapy Centre built around a 14th century Templar house is complemented by San Domenico Golf. Three kilometres distant from each other, both San Domenico Golf and Masseria are under the same ownership and linked by a complimentary shuttle, forming a splendid golf resort.

Masseria San Domenico lies about five hundred metres from the sea, its whitewashed buildings standing amidst ancient olive groves. The core of the building itself dates back to the 14th century, while the surrounding structures were built at the turn of the century. Keeping intact the original structure of the farmstead, a "masseria" is a large agricultural estate, San Domenico was carefully restored and turned into a five star boutique hotel.

The centrepiece of the resort is undoubtedly its magnificent free form swimming pool nestling amidst silver olive groves. Filled with naturally filtered seawater, it reflects the philosophy of the hotel’s Thalassotherapy Centre which offers a whole range of spa treatments and facilities.

Accommodation comprises a choice of atmospheric rooms and suites, each individually decorated and tastefully furnished with original period furniture and views over the lush estate and the Adriatic Sea in the distance. In spite of their ancient setting and rustic atmosphere, each room is lavishly equipped and fitted with every modern conveniences.

San Domenico's main restaurant has a suggestive vaulted dining room, formerly used as an oil press and now serving Apulian specialities accompanied by a selection of the best regional wines. The olive oil , vegetables and most of the fruits are grown on the estate, while fresh fish and seafood come directly from the nearby coastal villages. Additionally, there is also a seasonal Pool Grill, a Breakfast Room, Cocktail Bar and Cigar Room as well as a restaurant at the clubhouse.

Also known as Egnathia for its proximity to this Greek archaeologic site, the golf course at San Domenico was laid out by European Golf Design and built to USGA specifications. The course runs close to the Adriatic and is blessed with sweeping sea views from every tee, fairway and green.

At San Domenico Golf Course's 9th hole, a red tower stands out against the blue sky and sea; the Masseria Cimino, an 18th C building turned into a Guesthouse. The Masseria has 15 rooms furnished in Mediterranean style, air conditioned, with marble bathrooms and equipped with all facilities. Some have a fireplace and others a balcony overlooking the golf course and the Adriatic Sea.
