The 5 star Torre Maizza farm is located in the middle of a large hillside estate 2km from the coast overlooking the Mediterranean. The ancient farm is set in a grove of age old olive trees where guests can enjoy strolls through our orchards; vineyards; fields and crops and where the air is scented with heady myrtle and delicate jasmine that together create the estates typical Mediterranean fragrance. Torre Maizza is an ancient garrison; part of a defense line that crossed all Apulia; from Gargano promontory to finibus terrae; as Santa Maria di Leuca was called. During the 16th century Torre Maizza used to be a watchtower against the raids of Ottoman and Saracen Turks. Later on it became a working farm with a little village. One can still recognize the old Mill; the houses for the farm workers and courtyards which were used to tend the animals. Now Torre Maizza has been converted into a refined; luxury 5 star resort. The local traditional hospitality which once was extended to pilgrims and Benedictine monks is now offered to all guests.
