Sunshine, sea breezes, and serious style set the tone at this Apulia private villa. Cool off in the pool, fire up the BBQ for garden feasts, and cycle through olive groves to reach the coast. Vaulted ceilings, artisan details, and a pro-level kitchen bring flair indoors. With space to unwind and both Adriatic and Ionian seas nearby, this luxury villa in Puglia is all about laid-back living.
Apulia countryside retreat with private pool, pro kitchen, and alfresco charm near both stunning Adriatic and Ionian coastlines.
Located away among the sun-drenched olive groves of southern Apulia, Casitta offers a peaceful and stylish base for enjoying both the Adriatic and Ionian coasts. A beautifully restored masseria dating back to the 18th century, this Apulia private villa celebrates the best of the region’s architecture with vaulted ceilings, Leccese stone floors, and artisan-crafted furnishings.
The interiors balance rustic character with sleek functionality, from creamy-toned lounges and a fully equipped chef’s kitchen to five serene bedrooms, each with its own bathroom. One of the suites is set apart in the garden with a private living area and kitchenette, perfect for a little extra privacy.
Casitta’s layout invites relaxation and slow living. The large Mediterranean garden, filled with fragrant herbs and local flora, sets the stage for alfresco breakfasts under the veranda, yoga on the lawn, or sunset dinners in the shade of mature trees. The vast estate includes two outdoor dining areas, a charcoal BBQ, and a generous swimming pool with loungers and parasols. Indoors, guests can unwind with a curated library, satellite TVs in each bedroom, and a wide selection of teas. Bikes are also available for scenic countryside rides.
The kitchen has been professionally outfitted with a vertical oven, double-temperature fridge, and all the tools needed for private chef sessions or hands-on cooking classes. There’s even a laundry room tucked near the pool area for added convenience.
This luxury villa in Puglia is perfectly placed for days at sea, with the Adriatic coastline a short 20-minute drive away and the Ionian shore reachable within 40-minutes. Beyond the beaches, the historic towns and lively bars of Otranto and Lecce offer an irresistible taste of southern Italian culture, making Casitta not just a place to stay, but a gateway to the relaxed rhythm of Apulian life.
