Property Description

Property Summary

Nestled in the ancient hill town of Oria, in the heart of northern Salento, Italy, Villa La Dolce Vita is an elegant modern building that seamlessly blends contemporary comfort with old-time charm. This exceptional vacation rental spans 177 square metres across 2 floors and is surrounded by approximately 12,000 square metres of lush, fenced-in grounds that include an olive grove, a vineyard, and a variety of ornamental and aromatic plants. The villa's design reflects a masterful use of natural materials, with exposed stone contrasting beautifully against white walls, and tastefully chosen furnishings that evoke a timeless Apulian character. Guests benefit from complimentary Wi-Fi throughout the property, a private parking area accessible via an attractive automatic iron gate set in an exposed brick wall, and a generous yard that envelops the villa in Mediterranean scents and scenery. The property is completely fenced, ensuring privacy and tranquillity throughout your stay.

Outdoors

The exterior of Villa La Dolce Vita is a harmonious composition of Mediterranean scrub, ornamental plants, rows of vines, olive trees, palms, cypresses, and fragrant herb bushes that together create a deeply relaxing natural environment. A charming courtyard encloses a colourful orange grove, offering an intimate and aromatic setting for open-air meals. A furnished seating area in front of the main entrance invites you to pause and admire the vast green expanse of the property, while a stone path winds around the villa connecting the various outdoor spaces. The outdoor dining area, shaded by a large rectangular pergola, is positioned along this stone-paved path and is complemented by a dedicated area featuring a barbecue and a wood oven, ideal for convivial evenings under the Apulian sky. Natural shady spots are plentiful throughout the grounds, offering cool retreats during the warmest hours of the day.

The rectangular swimming pool, measuring 7 by 14 metres with a constant depth of 1.60 metres, is a centrepiece of the outdoor experience. It features chlorine purification and 5 large semicircular stone steps for easy water access. The pool is non-heated and is open from the last Saturday of April until the first Saturday of October. Surrounding the pool is a generous stone-paved sunbathing area furnished with large, comfortable sunbeds, as well as an elegant patio with brick columns that provides shade during the sunniest hours. The pool area is naturally screened by olive trees, ensuring complete privacy, and is equipped with a hot and cold-water shower and a nearby bathroom with shower. Please note that the property photographs were taken in spring, so the appearance of flowering plants and garden grass may differ at the time of your arrival.
