01 · In a sentence

Relais Villa San Martino in Martina Franca.

Relais Villa San Martino stands apart in Martina Franca for its authentic 18th-century Masseria conversion, preserving original architectural details while offering modern hospitality across 12 individually designed rooms.

Located on the SS172, this intimate property leverages its historical stone structure and surrounding Itria Valley landscape to create weddings that feel rooted in Puglia's genuine character rather than staged luxury.

The venue's small scale—accommodating up to 150 guests—ensures personalized service and eliminates the impersonal feel of larger destination hotels.

Great location with beautiful grounds. 2 restaurants on-site, breakfast. The rooms were updated in 2014 and in 2016 with high quality materials. There is parking on-site, you can borrow umbrellas if it's raining. However, simple things are not thought through, like there is not enough light in the bathroom - actually none in the tab, the bathroom door opens right into the toilet, the pillow choice is very limited, and the hot water does not come fast enough. I hope they can address these.
