Breakfast

Our breakfast is incredibly rich with all certified organic products. Our company aims not to give you the usual croissant from the bar down the street, but to let you taste our homemade pies, with our jams, and our croissants, there's so much variety every day. All completely made from our fields and transformed by us. Upon request, we will tailor a perfect breakfast just for you.

Hey from Danilo

Member since July 2012 | 76,509 hits

Hello. We are a family group consisting of a father, mother, and son. Afterwards, the first grandfather takes care of agriculture, cultivating vegetables and cereals, while the second grandfather takes care of animals and breeds them. Additionally, the first grandmother transforms the products that her husband brings home into jams, flour, and biscuits, while the second grandmother transforms milk into mozzarella and burrata cheese. Then there is the uncle, who supports me as a "father", tasting and evaluating all the products that the grandparents produce. On the contrary, the aunt and mother criticize the work of the tasters. This is who we are, united in good and bad, with one purpose: to live.

If you want to feel at home for a week, go to Li Massari. Immersed in nature, for those who love the countryside and animals. Sonja is fantastic, ask her anything and she will help you. After a day at the beach, every afternoon we would retreat to the garden to relax and take a dip in the pool. Room always clean and tidy. Parking. What can I say, an experience to repeat.

So!!! I don't know where to start... Sonia, the owner, is an exquisite person, very helpful and for anything you ask because she gives great tips for excursions and transfers. The location is definitely not a resort but offers all the necessary comforts for a summer vacation and the breakfast, even if complete, may not be 5-star but always remember what you pay for (price/service is top-notch). Located 5 minutes from the center of Otranto and 5/10 from the most beautiful beaches in the area, you can move around either by car or with the legendary "calessino" (which the good Sonia will always show you). Know that after a challenging day between the sea, boat excursions, and city visits by the sea, you can relax in the gazebo in the olive garden reserved for guests... for the rest? Cordiality, courtesy, kindness, and availability reign supreme... We will return very willingly. Thank you again.

We really enjoyed our stay at Li Massari. Quiet place and 10 minutes from Otranto by car. Room with a small and lovely terrace. Parking available. The host Sonja will answer all your requests and will make very good cappuccinos for breakfast. Highly recommended!

Very welcoming all the staff and the owners very polite. For those who have a 4-legged friend I highly recommend it. With a large garden, internal parking in the structure and a few minutes from the beach and the Alimini Lakes Otranto (LE).

Beautiful place immersed in greenery, quiet, convenient to reach the center of Otranto and the most beautiful beaches. Good breakfast, the room for 4 people is a bit small. The owner, Sonja, is kind and helpful. Recommended.

We stayed at this beautiful bed and breakfast for 6 days, but it's as if we had always lived there. The place is very well-kept, easy to reach, close to the center of Otranto and surroundings (Alimini, Baia dei Turchi, etc...). But what makes it special is the care and passion that the owners put into managing the bed and breakfast, making the guest feel at home. Excellent breakfast with good products, very varied and with excellent cakes! The passion that the owners put into caring for hospitality should be an example to many starred hotels... A big thank you to Sonja, Danilo, Elia, Claudia and Stefania for making this vacation unforgettable, thanks also to their suggestions and friendship.

La ringrazio per la sua recensione. Per l'insegna stiamo aspettando il consenso della statale non ci piace fare i cafoni.. comunque vi faccio i complimenti per il vostro occhio aguzzino, che anche se in poche ore di permanenza nella nostra struttura sia riuscito ad avere un quadro completo per dare un voto ad una realtà che una famiglia sta cercando di realizzare da diversi anni.. grazie ancora..

Beautiful structure, room a bit small but essential, strengths are the cleanliness and the location but above all the friendliness and availability of the owners.

linda

Courtesy, kindness, organization, cleanliness, tranquility make this place a small uncontaminated paradise. I appreciated everything, from the strategic location just a stone's throw from Otranto but also from the renowned Lidi of Alimini to the hospitality of Sonia and her family. A small piece of advice for those traveling with their own dog: the permitted beaches are only in the Frassanito area and some adjacent lidos, in Otranto instead only Lido Camillo, the free beach does not allow access to dogs. We will definitely return to enjoy this little oasis once again, but above all to meet Sonia.

Grazie tante, siete stati degli ospiti meravigliosi. E grazie ancora per la bella recensione. Un abbraccio forte anche a Matteo, Vito, e una grattatina a nana. Grazie ancora.

We returned as guests to the Bed and Breakfast Li Massari this year, once again we felt part of the family. The management by Sonia and Danilo is impeccable, always ready to fulfill our requests with the smile and courtesy that distinguish them. We will definitely return next year to spend a beautiful and peaceful week. Thank you for everything.

We stayed at this property for a week and had a great time, welcomed as if we were at home. Sonia and Danilo are exceptional people, always available and welcoming. They were able to advise us on places to visit and events of the week. The property is really well maintained and cared for, the garden is wonderful and to enliven everything there are also the animals. The location is strategic to be able to tour the area and at the same time away from traffic. The room has everything you need (and if something is missing just ask because they are very kind) and always kept clean (the air conditioner is really useful). I thank the managers for everything, we recommend this property without hesitation. Best regards Monica and Stefano.

Sonja was a very friendly host. We could ask a lot. Always helpful and available when we needed her. My daughter and I spent a week and we can really recommend this place to other people. Easy to park your car. Great Wi-Fi. Just 5 minutes from the nice city of Otranto and 8-10 minutes from the beautiful beaches. We had a perfect holiday.

A really welcoming place, where simplicity is the greatest value. I was treated like a family member and spent some beautiful days, feeling comfortable. The property is well maintained, the rooms have everything essential, with simple yet overall well-kept finishes. The garden is truly beautiful, green and well maintained, as well as the common areas. There are also animals and beautiful plants. A place of peace, in the countryside of Otranto, for those looking for everything necessary at a great value for money, enjoying nature and the beautiful nearby beaches. Obviously without pretensions since it is an agriturismo and not a hotel. The kindness of Danilo and Sonia, and their children, is an added value to consider. Thank you again for everything.

Jacopo and I stayed at Li Massari for a week, and it was a wonderful vacation! The property, with the large garden full of animals and beautiful olive trees, allows you to truly relax, and Sonia spoiled us with her delicious cakes and many tips for visiting the area (including a boat trip and horseback ride that were greatly appreciated). Our vacation was very eventful, and the location was optimal for touring all of Salento. We can only thank you for everything, we already miss Li Massari!

I spent a week at Li Massari with my family. It was a holiday characterized by familiarity in a natural setting; surrounded by animals (a horse, geese, sheep, guinea pigs, two squirrels, etc.) and enjoying products directly cultivated by them. Sonia, Danilo, and even little Elia pampered us and welcomed us like relatives. Sonia made us taste simple yet excellent dishes from the Puglian cuisine. Despite her modesty that led her to emphasize that she is not a chef, we appreciated: homemade pasta, tasty appetizers, the excellent wild boar ragù (bred by Danilo), etc. Elia was a great playmate for our son who, when we went out, was eager to return to the property to play in the beautiful meadow surrounded by nature. Kudos to the owners who are starting off well, with the right attitude and many great ideas that we hope they will realize. We will keep a beautiful memory of this wonderful stay and we are sure we will enjoy it again in the future.

stayed from 08/05/2017 to 08/12/2017

The answer from the host:
Grazie sig. Domenico, è stato un onore per noi avervi conosciuto sia come clienti ma per lo più come persone. Siete una famiglia fantastica, unita e solida e avendo lei a capo di essa non poteva essere diversamente. Spero di crescere e rapportarmi con la mia allo stesso modo con cui voi fate con la vostra. Grazie ancora sia per la stupenda recensione che per la vostra amicizia. Grazie Domenico, Maria Elena e il grande Matteo.

Holiday 10 out of 10! Brand new and extremely clean property in a truly great location, both for the sea and for visiting nearby places. The family managing 'Li Massari' are fantastic, friendly, helpful, courteous, and very patient! (Those who were there during that period will understand!) The value for money is excellent. I highly recommend it to everyone.

The answer from the host:
Ooooo gentilissima. Grazie Daniela, speriamo vivamente di trovare persone fantastiche come voi nel nostro cammino. Grazie ancora.

antonella

I didn't give a 10 to the property because, in my opinion, it lacked something important, especially in summer: a fridge in the room and even a small one would have been useful. Maybe something salty was missing at breakfast, I like it. Everything else was ok. Danilo and Sonia very kind!

stayed from 08/13/2017 to 08/20/2017

The answer from the host:
Grazie Antonella, sei stata una delle migliori clienti. Vi prometto che al più presto provvederò a far installare il frigo in camera e per quanto riguarda la colazione la muniremo anche del salato. Grazie per i consigli, a presto.
