The Enviroment:
The Masseria San Domenico retains all the architectural features of the ancient fortified farm with plenty of room with a vaulted rooms in the original space furnished with simple elegance of country homes which are the typical Apulian farms. The resulting atmosphere is warm and relaxing and warm atmosphere of this is combined with services that meet the highest standards of Italian hotels
Being Responsible
Against the backdrop of the blue Mediterranean sky and sea, Masseria San Domenico lies only 500 metres from the Adriatic coast in the Italy's Puglia region, its whitewashed building standing amidst centenarian olive groves. The building itself dates back to the 15th century, when it was used by the Knights of Malta as a watch-tower.
After a careful restoration, completed respecting the old shapes and the original building materials, the tower was converted into a 5 star deluxe resort whose charm recalls the history of the region, a land where Eastern and Mediterranean cultures have flourished together.
How you will reside
Four beautiful rooms "pied dans l'eau" where you will be lulled by the lapping of the waves on the rocks. A scenario of natural beauty reserved for those who want to enjoy the sea breeze in complete relaxation, with the same spirit of acceptance of Masseria San Domenico.
How you will eat
This suggestive dining room with arched volts dates back to the 1700's. Keeping with its original purpose of oil press, the Masseria San Domenico's restaurant offers specialties from the typical cuisine of Puglia, followed by a rich selection of the best wines from this region. Vegetables and home grown products, olive oil and a great part of the fruit are grown or produced in San Domenico's own land. Fresh, fish and shellfish come from our Adriatic Coast.
The wellness choice
The essential element of thalassotherapy is sea water. Its salinity is very rich in minerals and the abundance of trace elements also makes it a primary source of purification for the human organism.
In order to obtain the maximum of these benefits, international thalassotherapeutic experts-particularly in Thalgo-have performed research to extract the greatest benefits from sea water, while keeping in mind its nature and potentiality.
The water used in our center is drawn from a deep underground stratum, which sits at about 400 meters below the sea level.
This water is also completely purified by means of filters and is then heated in our center's circuit using the most up-to-date equipment.
Another extremely beneficial sea material is seaweed. Our seaweed has vast concentrations of minerals and vitamins, indispensable for the improvement of our biological functions. The seaweed is crushed and micropolverized and then added to sea water in hydromassage and compresses. Sea water and seaweed are an exceptional cocktail producing a equilibrating, tonic invigorating and detoxifying effect. |
