Masseria Galatea Agriturismo - Alessano

I went there with my wife to celebrate our 10th wedding anniversary and it was a wonderful experience. The place is amazingly beautiful. and simple at the same time. The waiters, hostess and chef were warm and yet discrete. They knew when we wanted attention and left us alone to enjoy our time together. The music was great (the chef even dedicated us a song after he got to know our Brazilian roots). The atmosphere was magical with people talking softly and some soft warm lights illuminating the place. At last, but not least, the food was exquisite. Although there weren't many choices (because they work with seasonal ingredients) everything we ordered was delicious.

The antipasto was sublime… every bite teased the palate with a perfect balance of taste, texture and aroma. The pasta dishes were all very good, though less impressive than the antipasto. The desserts had me back on cloud nine the cheesecake so light yet so flavorful was blissful.

Such an amazing location and experience. It all starts with the drive way, what an entrance to start a great night out. The local food has a great taste and each course kept surprising us. We came back 3 times and wanted to come back a 4th time at our last night. Unfortunately on Tuesdays they are closed. A big thanks to the staff and owner for the total package they deliver, each night again! For our next Puglia holiday we will definitely come back again. Thank you Marijke Danny, The Netherlands

A very nice place: location, accommodation, dinner in the garden with special dishes. Angelita and Pasquale do an excellent job. I will recommend this masseria to my friends and I will definitely return.

We went with two families. The place is amazing in its simplicity and cleanliness ! We had the antipasto which was really tasty mostly vegetarian and had ‘primo’ of pasta with orecchiette cima di rapa, pomodori secchi and pinoli and we also had gnocchi with pumpkin and scamorza. Again everything was delicious. Our kids took a simple gnocchi al sugo (10EUR). We had few deserts (lo spumeno, which is a sort of a delicious semi freddo and sporcamusi again a tasty millefoglie with cream and lemon). Great environment, nice and helpful staff, but a bit overpriced. In total was 188 although after a small error we’ve got the difference of 18EUR. All in all still great experience! I didn’t see the rooms, but can imagine it’s worth staying there as well!
