Vista Mare da Zio Piero

Many dream of a vacation in Italy but might pass it over for other European destinations as it can be perceived to be more expensive. It is certainly true that some things will be more costly in big tourist spots that are highly in demand such as Rome, Venice, and Milan but this is not universally true throughout the country. So, if you want to plan a perfect vacation in Italy then read on as there are absolutely some budget-friendly options for you to choose between!

For a true luxury experience that is undeniably specific to Apulia, Masseria Isaia is the perfect way to go. A historic masseria, a type of fortified farmhouse estate typically built in Apulia in the 16th century, this incredible property is spacious, lovely, and abounds in character and style. Located minutes from the gorgeous coastline and the famous, “white city,” of Ostuni, right in the Piana degli Ulivi Monumentali, a large expanse of the region that is cultivated with olive trees, the villa is surrounded by centuries-old and thousand-year-old trees, with the glittering city and sea visible in the distance. It would be hard to imagine a dreamier location for a holiday in Apulia!

The scent of citrus and lavender in the garden is on the air, olive trees all around sway in the breeze, a lush green lawn frames a perfect pool area, a spacious porch with big sliding glass doors is adorned with a lovely dining area and a plush lounge area, bright spacious interiors welcome you indoors: this is Lacorte di Ninetta. Immersed among olive groves, a vineyard, and fruit trees between the beautiful White City of Ostuni and the famous Salento coastline of Apulia, this villa is a perfect place to get away from it all and experience the region. Named for its owners, husband and wife team, Lacorte Filippo and Ninetta, this gorgeous villa is located in the spot that they chose for their own summer escapes and is a reflection of their experience, taste, and hard work.

Sleeping up to six guests in three bedrooms, with four bathrooms, Lacorte di Ninetta is a magic gem in Apulia.
