Hala says

The grand five-star masseria: a former Knights of Malta watchtower, thalassotherapy spa, private beach, and access to the San Domenico Golf course also used by Borgo Egnazia. Old-Italian luxury.

Originally a watchtower for the Knights of Malta, converted in the 1990s into one of the founding properties of the Pugliese five-star masseria genre. Whitewashed buildings on 60 hectares of olive grove, an enormous free-form seawater lagoon pool encircled by natural rocks and palms, a private beach a short shuttle away, and the same San Domenico golf course Borgo Egnazia uses. The thalassotherapy spa is the anchor of the property. Slightly more discreet than Borgo Egnazia: fewer kids, older clientele, more old-Italian luxury.
