Nestled in the serene countryside of Salento, just a few kilometers from the most beautiful beaches of the Ionian Sea and the historic center of Gallipoli, the Faresalento agriturismo welcomes its guests in an authentic natural setting, framed by the contours of ancient dry stone walls and over a thousand olive trees. Founded by the dream of Debora and Pierantonio, this project combines hospitality with innovative agriculture, aiming to enhance local resources while maintaining the area's balance. The agronomic techniques employed, such as mycorrhization, reflect an advanced and environmentally conscious vision, evidenced by the extra virgin olive oil produced on-site.

The facility, built to energy class A standards, consists of four apartments and four rooms, divided between two adjacent buildings and the main house, Villa Zefiro. Each accommodation unit features a private outdoor area that is shaded and equipped for guests to fully enjoy the tranquility of the landscape. The terraces provide an unparalleled view of Gallipoli's bay, the island of Sant’Andrea, and the old town, creating an atmosphere of genuine well-being.

The swimming pool, surrounded by greenery and exclusively reserved for guests, offers moments of relaxation in complete safety due to its shallow depth. Nearby, the “Rosa dei Venti,” constructed in typical Salento style with exposed tuff barrel vaults, serves as the space for breakfast and, during the cooler months, for private events, meetings, and celebrations. In the summer months, the agriturismo is fully dedicated to the stay and serenity of its guests.

At breakfast, local flavors take center stage: seasonal fruits, fresh pastries, artisanal cheeses, and organic jams create a diverse offering that also caters to specific dietary needs, such as gluten-free, nickel-free, and vegan diets. Breakfast is included for those staying in rooms or suites, while it is available upon reservation for apartments.

The agriturismo is strategically located for exploring the wonders of Salento. In less than ten minutes by car, guests can reach Punta della Suina, Lido Pizzo, and Baia Verde, perfect for those seeking relaxation or sporting activities. Partnerships with select beach clubs, like G Beach and Crystal Beach, allow guests to choose the beach that best suits their needs, whether traveling with family or seeking a more private atmosphere.

For those arriving without a car, a transfer service to and from airports and stations is available upon request. Additional services within the facility include laundry, ironing, extra cleaning, and pool towel rental.

Faresalento is also a starting point for guided excursions and sports courses along the Ionian coast, in collaboration with certified instructors. For guests traveling with sports equipment, dedicated areas for washing and storing gear are available.

With a dedicated and passionate staff that combines diverse skills in a shared project, Faresalento is not just a place to stay but an authentic experience of immersion in the culture, flavors, and nature of Salento.
Rooms and Rates
Breakfast at Faresalento is a special occasion, designed to provide guests with a flavorful and authentic awakening. It is served just a short distance from the pool, under the shade of the "Rosa dei Venti," a space crafted from local stone that reflects traditional Salento architecture.

Each morning, the table is filled with fresh, local products: seasonal fruits, artisanal pastries, freshly baked bread, organic jams, fresh cheeses, and local mozzarella, accompanied by coffee, tea, cappuccinos, and orange juice.

Customized breakfast options are also available to meet specific dietary needs, including gluten-free, vegan, or nickel-free choices, prepared with the same focus on quality. For those staying in apartments, breakfast can be ordered on-site, adding a daily touch of sweetness and tradition to the Salento experience.

Hey, I'm Debora

Debora and Pierantonio are the heart of Faresalento. After falling in love with the Salento region during a vacation, they made the decision to turn a small olive grove into a lifelong project that combines rural hospitality with sustainable agriculture. Together with a dedicated and skilled team, they warmly welcome guests, providing attentive hospitality that respects nature's rhythms and is deeply rooted in local traditions. Debora is responsible for communication and managing the business, always focusing on the guests' well-being and attention to detail. Pierantonio, a medical professional, shares her passion for the countryside and sustainable development. They are joined by Sebastiano, Cinzia, and Mauro, each playing a vital role in the daily operations of the agriturismo and the farm. Faresalento is the result of a shared dream and continuous commitment: to welcome guests as friends, make them feel part of an authentic place, and guide them through an experience that blends relaxation, culture, and nature.

Area Mare

Faresalento is located in the heart of lower Salento, just a few kilometers from Gallipoli, surrounded by an authentic rural landscape marked by dry stone walls and ancient olive groves. Its location is perfect for those who wish to freely explore the area, balancing beach days with cultural and natural discoveries.

The Ionian coast, featuring the beaches of Punta della Suina and Lido Pizzo, stretches just 3 km away and is part of the Lido Pizzo Regional Natural Park. These coastal stretches, still largely untouched, are nestled within a pine forest that gently slopes down to the sea, offering crystal-clear waters, golden sands, and stunning views. About 5 km away, Baia Verde is the ideal destination for those seeking equipped beach facilities, seaside venues, and water sports, and it is particularly popular among kitesurfing and windsurfing enthusiasts.

Gallipoli, accessible in under ten minutes by car, combines the vibrancy of summer life with the charm of its historic center, filled with baroque churches, artisan shops, ancient palaces, and restaurants overlooking the sea. During the summer months, the city comes alive with cultural events, concerts, and local festivals, providing an opportunity each evening to experience Salento's traditions.

Faresalento is also less than a kilometer from the Lecce–Santa Maria di Leuca expressway exit, making it easy and quick to reach other captivating destinations: Lecce with its refined baroque architecture, Otranto with its cathedral and seaside castle, Santa Maria di Leuca with its dramatic landscapes and 19th-century villas, and Galatina with the Basilica of Santa Caterina, as well as the historic centers of Melpignano, Specchia, and Nardò.

Nature lovers can explore the inland roads lined with dry stone walls and prickly pears, stop in charming villages to taste local products, or discover fortified farms, coastal towers, and pristine landscapes. Faresalento thus serves as an excellent starting point for experiencing the most authentic and diverse soul of Salento, encompassing sea, culture, and countryside.
