Francesco is a great host and is working hard to figure out the best ways to run this Coliving! I had such a great experience and it was a great escape and pause from constant travels. The rural location was ideal for slowing down and the community was active and strong! I loved my experience and would definitely return
The vibe was very homy, it felt like we were all part of the community, like friends sharing a home together.
The house was peaceful and welcoming - and also mysterious, when we visited some secret rooms at night! - with 3 loving kittens playing around all the time.
It's in the countryside, but not isolated: using the house bikes, we visited a few of the neighboring masserie to enjoy a festival, see how mozzarella is made, and taste some deliciously cheap local wine.
On the weekends, we would go a bit further to explore the beautiful surroundings. Everything felt spontaneous and natural, thanks to Sabri and Francesco, who obviously care a lot for this community ❤️
The location is in the middle of the countryside and perfect to relax. The surrounding area is amazing to explore. The best part is the community, a lot of cool events get organised and Francesco & Sabrina are amazing hosts!
I had a great experience at Masseria Olga. The space was incredibly comfortable, with a perfect balance between communal areas and private spaces, allowing for both social interaction and personal time. The room I stayed in was simple yet cozy, and the working space was excellent, with strong Wi-Fi that made it easy to stay productive. The hosts and fellow co-livers were all fantastic—everyone was easygoing and friendly, making the community vibe really special.
This being their first year as a co-living, there are naturally some areas where they’re still learning and improving, but I’m confident they’ll continue to enhance the experience for future guests.
One thing to keep in mind: it’s advisable to rent a car or confirm ahead of time if the team or other co-livers are organizing a group car that you can join. You’ll definitely need it to explore the area and make the most of your stay.
Overall, I recommend Masseria Olga and look forward to seeing how it continues to grow!
I spent June 24 at the Masseria. Francesco and Sabrina has been very welcoming and I felt "at home" immediately. The place itself is very calm and quite. The Co-working space and the surroundings are very spacious. The bedrooms are plain and simple and functional. (No problem - you don´t want to spend a lot of time there anyway when you are in a place like this). Francesco is very knowledgeable about the area and the traditions. So if you want to step off the beaten track and discover places where there are no other tourists that´s the place to be.
Aaaand oft course, you don´t want to miss the sunset overthere. I think I took at least a hundred pictures because every evening it looked much nicer than the day before :-) Overall I enjoyed my stay at the Masseria a lot and I can highly recommend the place.
Masseria Olga has a huge potential!
The place has it's own charm, it's full of history and it is conveniently located in the middle of Puglia so that we could explore other places around (you'd need a car for that).
There is a co-working space and a separate office with good internet connection.
There were activities organised for us to get a flavour of the Puglian culture and cuisine were we were learning how to make orecchiette or mozarella!
Much recommended!
I had an amazing stay at this Coliving, they are just starting but Francesco is always up to help when needed, it's 10 minutes from a big city where you can find anything that you need.
I work remotely and travel and I had no issue at all with the internet connection, the kitchen had all that I needed to cook and prepare my meals.
We also organized a few get away to the beach and nearby amazing towns, like Ostuni, Matera, and Monopoli.
Super recommend it!
