Surrounded by the wild beauty of Monopoli, this cluster of authentic Trulli and lamia makes up a welcoming villa. The private pool and summer kitchen complete the terrace, while the sauna provides space indoors to unwind and relax. Your host can provide a variety of services for an additional fee, from children's equipment and housekeeping to local tours to ensure your stay is as relaxing or as exciting as you want. To get the most out of this fantastic location, we think you'll want a car – the nearest beach is just ten minutes away by car, and the centre of Monopoli isn't far to drive.

Lie low for a while at this traditional Trullo nestled deep within the peaceful Puglia countryside and yet just a twenty-minute drive to the white-sands of the coast.

An astonishing piece of rural architecture, this collection of dry-stone-walled-huts has been reimagined into an elegant and stylish holiday home. Beneath its cool, conical roofs, elegant muted furnishings bring all the style, while the occasional pops of blue remind us Puglia's coast is never far away.

Boasting a separate guest suite that sleeps four, there's heaps of space to all spill out here. But when the sun is shining, it's outside where we think you'll be spending most of your time.

Beat the heat in the sublime swimming pool fringed with fruit trees. Come together for lazy Mediterranean feasts and barbecues beneath the shady pergola. Or explore the home's grounds - the views over the earthy red terrain sprinkled with olive groves are sublime.

When it's time to soak up the local culture, you'll be off to a flying start in Alberobello (fifteen-minute drive) to explore its 1500 beehive-shaped Trulli houses sprinkled with bars and shops. Or, for a taste of the sea, head to the ancient harbour town of Monopoli (a twenty-minute drive). Amid its narrow streets tracing down to a delightful port, you'll discover some of the best seafood restaurants around.

If you’re seeking a serene Italian getaway, this could be the home for you. It’s an ideal base for a family or group of friends, with flexible sleeping arrangements courtesy of two double bedrooms also hosting a single bed and a sofa bed in the living room. Whatever the make-up of your group, the highlight of this home for everyone will be the outdoor space. Sun-kissed terraces, a private pool, shaded reading nooks and alfresco dining – what’s not to love? And, if you can tear yourself away, hop in the car to visit the coastal town of Monopoli – it’s well worth a visit.

An oasis of relaxation, this white-washed villa invites you to unwind in style. There's no doubt that the outdoor area is the biggest highlight. Between the private pool, fire pit, and sun-kissed seating areas, you'll want to spend every spare second basking in the fresh air. Indoors, the contemporary aesthetic is stylish and sophisticated, boasting all the essentials you'll need to feel at home. Location-wise, Monopoli, Polignano a Mare, and Ostuni are all within driving distance – no wonder it caught our ever-so-discerning eye. 

In Perfect Harmony

Few things are better than living in this restored trullo – a traditional Puglian limestone hut with a conical roof. Although a drive to the coast takes less than twenty-minutes, you’ll probably be so lost in the comforts of this home that you end up spending most of your time here. Mealtimes in the dining area and outside by the trees always feel like such a treat – rustle up a meal and sit down to breakfast as you share in the holiday joy with friends and family. When the sun starts to set, fire up the grill and tuck into a candlelit dinner. A night swim and a moment under the stars with a glass of Barolo will send you off to bed with the sweetest dreams.

Umbrellas

Serenity, class and comfort ooze from every facet of this stunning Italian trullo. The features are magnificent, from the whitewashed stone to the rustic fireplace – you’ll feel completely at home. A masterpiece in design, if you aren’t looking up at the beamed ceilings, you will be looking down at the beautiful rugs covering the majestic tiled flooring. You’ll find yourself wandering through this home with a large glass of wine, enjoying the beauty of the interiors. 

Awake from a lovely relaxing sleep to find light peeking through the quaint castle-like windows. Make yourself a coffee and sink into the large contemporary sofa for a peaceful morning and moment of calm, before indulging in breakfast alfresco surrounded by your loved ones and taking in the beauty of your surroundings with bright flowers, greenery and clean white wicker furniture to enjoy. As the Italian sun warms your skin, you’ll welcome the refreshing waters of your cool blue pool where you can while away the hours during the heat of the day. 

If you fancy exploring the local surroundings, restaurants and shops are within walking distance or a short drive away for convenience. Sample a traditional bowl of pasta with a little limoncello and you’ll never want to leave.

If you're looking for a relaxing stay in the heart of the gorgeous Apulia region, then this ground-floor villa is certainly a great choice. You'll have dining and lounge space out on your covered terrace, along with far-reaching views of the surrounding area from the garden. Inside, soft neutral tones and modern furnishings keep things comfortable and calming. The villa is shared with residents on the upper floor, however, privacy is not a problem here. Location-wise, it's a ten-minute drive to the nearest town of Fasano, while the beach is just twenty minutes from your villa. Other highlights include Monopoli (17km away) and Polignano a Mare (24km away) – both are beautiful destinations and well worth visiting.

Plus, it’s just a ten-minute drive to Monopoli and the nearest beaches.

Experience a unique holiday retreat at this historic Apulian trulli homestay, which blends timeless elegance with traditional touches. Surrounded by expansive scenery and olive groves, this villa has been designed to deliver on all modern comforts, peppered with materials native to the region – think stone arches, lime plaster, and chiancarelle. Sitting on perfectly landscaped lawns with an impressive pool area and outdoor kitchen, this is an ideal destination for families or friends seeking serenity and style when discovering all that Italy's Puglia region has to offer.

Azure Grotta

Bathtub

Surrounded by stunning Apulian countryside, yet just twenty minutes by car from the centre of Monopoli – this quintessential Mediterranean villa offers guests a private slice of serenity from the moment they open the front gate. Upon entering the home, you'll be welcomed by the soothing earthy tones of the home's original features, including tiled stone floors throughout and whitewashed exposed brickwork in the living area. Antique dark wooden furniture and terracotta ornaments complement the character and complete the home's Mediterranean aesthetic with infinite elegance. Leading out to the garden, French doors pave the way to a small terrace featuring day beds by the pool and a shaded chill-out area, which serves as the perfect spot for your morning coffee. Another large pergola offers a second living area, bringing the indoors outside – with a plush corner sofa, outdoor kitchen and dining table that remain shaded from the sun. This luscious corner of the home is a hidden gem that allows guests to relax as they would inside without compromising on losing garden views overlooking the countryside with olive and fruit trees growing all around. 


Tiles & Terracotta

Perfect for a pair, this pocket-sized pad is in the heart of Fasano. Step outside and straight onto the white-washed lanes, where local eateries, shops, and all the must-haves await. The coast is just a short drive away when you fancy a beach day – just note that parking in this central area is a bit tricky. Back home, we love the architectural details, such as stone archways and vaulted ceilings. It feels cosy and charming, if a bit compact. A third guest could kip on a fold-out bed, but we think it's best for two.

Self Check-in / Check-out

In the heart of the iconic town of Alberobello, this historic home offers a unique retreat in the famous Valle d’Itria region. This beautifully converted trullo boasts plenty of traditional charm and you'll be transported back in time thanks to the curves and arches of the whitewashed walls and the conical stone roof. That doesn't mean you'll be without modern luxuries, though. You'll have your own indoor pool complete with jets and a pretty water feature, making this home a true oasis of calm. 

Begin your day with a leisurely breakfast on the private courtyard terrace, where you can sip coffee and soak up the atmosphere for a while. We highly recommend you explore the town, where craft shops, ancient churches and a sloping maze of trulli-lined streets look as if they could've been plucked from the pages of a fairytale. Strike up a conversation with some of the locals to hear stories of the area's rich heritage, then pick up some locally-grown fruits and vegetables to take home for dinner. The kitchen has everything you need to try your hand at recreating some local dishes. Post-dinner, pour yourself a glass of bubbly and get comfy on the sumptuous sofa. 



The Trulli Maze

Free Parking

This cluster of Trulli homes is like a fairytale illustration come to life. Each bone-white stone structure is home to a separate bedroom, kitchen and living room, with the outside space connecting them all together. Inside, comfy beds are nestled in archways and circular rooms have bare stone walls for an authentic feel. There’s no shortage of mod-cons though, with flatscreen TVs and desks for remote working if you need.

Really, though, this place was made for outdoor living, making the most of the sunny climes of Italy’s heel. There’s a full outdoor kitchen with a traditional stone bread oven, and myriad places to dine in the sun or shade – the choice is yours. Seats in the shade of ancient olive trees provide a moment’s respite. But the piece de resistance has to be the covered hot tub, surrounded by sun loungers to dry off after.

The location is a boon too, just outside the centre of one of Puglia’s prettiest towns – Locorotondo. A cluster of white medieval churches makes up the historic hilltop centre, where winding cobbled streets are filled with family-run trattoria and slow-food eateries. The UNESCO town of Ostuni is also within day-trip distance if you have a car.

A former farmer's house, this villa is now a contemporary getaway near Puglia's coast. Despite its modern upgrades, it hasn't lost any of its character. In fact, two guests will have the luxury of sleeping in the traditional trullo – ideal for those wanting their own space. Each bedroom leads onto a terrace and offers views of the surrounding woodlands or the sea. You can spend your afternoons relaxing in the private pool and evenings dining alfresco on the terrace. There's no shortage of spots to relax with a glass of wine, either – and the Adriatic views are the icing on the cake. Location-wise, you'll find Monopoli and Polignano a Mare less than a twenty-minute drive away.

Apulia Elegance

Surrounded by olive groves and unspoilt Apulian countryside, this trullo provides an idyllic retreat. There’s a swimming pool to relax by and a gazebo for dining in the shade. The rustic interior has air conditioning and high ceilings to keep you cool during the hot summer weather. This place is perfect for a couple, friends or a family (guest three will be sleeping on a sofa bed in the living area). We hear that the team here looking after you are very helpful and friendly too. When you feel like exploring, there’s Alberobello, which is around a ten-minute drive away, while the sea and Monopoli are under thirty minutes from this charming home. 

Olives & Countryside

This villa is comprised of a series of restored trulli, the quirky conical-roofed structures only found in this part of southern Italy. While there’s limited living space inside, the outside space is ideal for gathering together, whether you’re enjoying the results of a cooking class or swimming in the private heated pool. You’ll find this home in the Puglian countryside just outside of the UNESCO-listed town of Alberobello, which is a wonderful place to explore. Your host can arrange a number of additional services, and you can even opt to have staff on-site during your stay – what a way to relax. 

The Antiquarian's Repose

Located on the coast of the Adriatic Sea, this home is perfectly positioned for exploring the Puglian countryside or visiting the beaches and coves of Monopoli. It has everything you need for a relaxing getaway and is located on the grounds of a lush park that’s exclusively yours to explore. 

The home's archetypical Italian design, with romantic arched ceilings and tall windows, bathes it in natural light – a sense of calm can be felt throughout. Surrounded by olive groves and blooming flora, the privacy of the expansive gardens allows you to truly disconnect. After waking up in the cosy confines of your bed, why not swim a few laps in the pool or lay out and feel the sun's warmth on your skin? After cooking a home-cooked meal in the Italianate kitchen, join friends on the terrace for lunch and a tipple. If you're keen to explore a little, hop in the car and visit some of the region's sleepy hilltop villages or take a tour of a local winery. 


I Dream of Italy

Set amongst the rolling Puglian countryside with sweeping vistas, yet a mere fifteen-minute drive from the sandy beaches of Bari, this home serves up the best of both worlds. Sure, the inside space is a bit of a squeeze in places, and with small windows in parts of the home, there are areas that lack natural light. That said, it’s a comfortable and cosy place to rest, and with sun-drenched terraces and a private pool to make the most of the views, outdoor living is a must. 


Whispers of Olive

This beautiful home blends the charm of a traditional trullo and the modern comforts you long for on holiday. The home is spread between four trulli made of local stone, with a bedroom in one, a living room equipped with a sofa bed for guests three and four in another, and other trulli housing the bathroom and the kitchen. There’s also an outdoor kitchen with a barbecue, and a shady pergola that’s perfect for chilling out or dining alfresco. We love the private pool and the garden’s pink pepper trees. You’ll be just a short drive from Polignano a Mare, Castellana Grotte, and Alberobello from this Apulian countryside home.  

Trulli Dream

You'll find this contemporary villa near Monopoli, just a short drive from the sea. It's an ideal location to explore the Apulian coast, though there's plenty to keep you busy back home, too. Everyone will appreciate the private pool and sunny terrace. Those looking to take their relaxing to the next level will also enjoy the Hammam, sauna and indoor Jacuzzi. There's even a putting green for the golf lovers. It's split across two buildings – there are two living areas and two kitchens, so everyone will have plenty of space.

Apulia Amore

Tucked among olive groves and rolling hills, this one-of-a-kind trulli villa is a true Apulian escape. The traditional stone homes and their iconic conical roofs are unique to the region. Here, they've been lovingly renovated to blend rustic charm with laid-back luxury. Inside, the cave-like nooks and cozy alcoves offer a unique, intimate feel. While the traditional layout doesn’t allow for expansive living spaces, that’s all part of the charm. Step outside to your private pool – perfect for lazy swims and sunset spritzes. Explore nearby gems like Alberobello and Monopoli, then come home to your peaceful hideaway. This isn’t just a place to stay – it’s an experience you’ll never forget.

No doubt about it, this idyllic Itria Valley home is pure Puglian perfection. Comprising carefully restored Trulli – traditional dry-stone structures with a conical roof – along with contemporary architectural additions, this authentic home oozes character and charm as well as sophistication and style. Featuring an open-plan kitchen, dining and living space – think whitewashed walls, awesome archways and cool tiled floors – as well as two beautifully serene bedrooms, this heavenly home is perfect for a couple of couples or family group seeking some good old-fashioned R & R. Occupying a tucked-away and tranquil spot and surrounded by gorgeous greenery, this wonderfully white home boasts spaces fit for socialising as well as seclusion.

Laze on loungers in the sun or luxuriate in your private, outdoor pool. Prepare family favourites on the white worktops in the kitchen before dining alfresco on the poolside terrace. Treat yourself to an afternoon snooze or seek the calm of the colourful courtyard. Find a quiet place to sit and read a book on the banquette seating in the sitting room or relax with a glass of local wine on the sofa. Round off a romantic day with time spent in the master bedroom’s free-standing tub.

If you fancy a little light exploration, you’ll find you’re a ten-minute drive away from both the Valley towns of Locorotondo and Cisternino. Set off on scenic walks or cycle routes or venture a little further and discover iconic Ostuni – also known as ‘The White City’ – famous for its 15th-century Gothic cathedral.  


Terracotta Heaven

Paid Parking

Housed in a former fishermen's building, this apartment is located in the heart of Monopoli, just steps away from the historic centre and the picturesque harbour. The apartment’s living room, off the well-equipped kitchen, sleeps two guests on a sofa bed at full capacity. Both the living area and the bedroom have a small balcony overlooking the street, while on the top floor, there’s a communal rooftop terrace with a 360-degree view of the harbour, lighthouse and the town’s rooftops.

The Harbour's Lighthouse

Desk / Workplace

Sleep beneath the original trulli cones and enjoy a unique taste of Puglia's history and tradition when you stay at this lovely, carefully restored home in the heart of the countryside. Encircled by stone walls and ancient olive trees, we think this is a magical retreat for a couple or a small family. Spend idyllic days lounging by the pool and admiring the verdant views. Grill some squid on the barbecue and enjoy with a glass of local wine, or use the rice cooker in the charming kitchen to whip up some dinner.

If you fancy a day by the sea, the pretty port town of Savelletri, with its beaches and excellent dining options, is just over twenty minutes in the car, while Capitolo Beach is 6 miles away. Or, explore the historic town of Alberobello, a ten-minute drive and visit the Museo del Territorio Casa Pezzolla, which recreates a bygone life in a trulli.

Squirrelled away in the sun-baked Puglia countryside, yet just a short drive to the picturesque beaches of Torre Canne, this home is the perfect rural escape. Made up of two separate independent apartments (sleeping four guests in each) and offering private outdoor Jacuzzis and shady terraces, it’s an excellent choice for a couple of families looking to holiday together without crowding each other. When it’s time to all get together, the terraces and alfresco dining areas have room for you all to gather on balmy nights.

The Olive Blossom

This charming countryside villa sits in picturesque Puglia, in a peaceful spot close to Carbonelli as well as some stunning sandy beaches in Capitolo. Built way back in the 1600s, this home feels steeped in history, but has been renovated so it still feels like a luxurious home-from-home. Outside, the garden looks bright and vibrant, with a private outdoor pool for a rejuvenating dip on hot days, plus lots of spaces to sit with a good book in the shade.

Carbonelli's Wonder

Tucked into the serene countryside of Monopoli, this beautiful holiday home is made up of a series of trulli and lamie. It’s a superb choice for an authentic Puglian escape, just a ten-minute drive from the centre of Monopoli and close to the coast’s beaches. The home features an expansive patio with an outdoor kitchen and barbecue, as well as an oh-so-tempting private pool. Inside, we love the traditional touches and the modern comforts. This home has everything you might need for a relaxing break in southern Italy. 

Monopoli Majesty

Stay in an authentic Puglian trullo at this home in the Castellana Grotte countryside. Spanning a main house with iconic cone-shaped roofs, a modern addition filled with light, and a traditional stone-built tower, this villa has a lot of charm. Most of your relaxing will take place in the garden – there's a private pool with an added hydromassage, and plenty of sun-kissed spots to enjoy a glass of wine. The bedrooms are spread across the different buildings, though the one with single beds is in an alcove and lacks a door. Location-wise, you're not far by car from Monopoli and Polignano a Mare – both great options for day trips.

Trullo Dream

Tucked two kilometres from Castellana Grotte's centre, you’ll find this cluster of renovated trulli nestled in the Puglian countryside. By nature of the buildings, some spaces within the home lack natural light, but it adds to the cosy atmosphere offered here. And to make the most of the Mediterranean climate, you’ll spend most of your time outdoors – with sun-kissed terraces, alfresco dining opportunities and a private pool, there’s no better place to be. When curiosity calls and it’s time to explore, you’re just a short distance from Grotte di Castellana, Alberobello, Polignano a Mare and Monopoli.

Medley of Olives

If you’re seeking a picturesque home in central Monopoli, this second-floor apartment is just the ticket. There’s no parking here, but this city on the Adriatic Sea is easily explored on foot. Speaking of, you’ll find the Baroque Monopoli Cathedral, the 16th-century Castle of Carlo V, and the frescoed Palmieri Palace within walking distance. Located within a period building, you’ll find plenty of original features here. Though you’ll need to climb the stairs up, you'll love spending evenings on the rooftop terrace relaxing with wine and grilling up dinners. 


From Monopoli, With Love

Experience a truly unique Puglia stay, courtesy of this charming property nestled in the heart of the region’s tranquil countryside. With three separate apartments and an additional cottage, everyone will be able to enjoy privacy, while at the same time the lovely garden and pool area invite to come together and make beautiful memories. 

We love the traditional Trullo design, so evocative of Puglia – we are also all for the lush garden and glistening swimming pool. Gather outside for delicious communal feasts and drinks, and lounge in the warmth of the Italian sun, a good book in hand. 

The inside of the apartments will welcome you with an embrace – expect stone walls, gorgeous wooden details and ceiling beams. The hosts decorated the place with excellent taste, carefully selecting period furnishings and locally crafted objects to match the general ambience. 

Wake up well-rested in any of the comfy bedrooms and get ready to explore – stay close to home and go cycling and hiking, or take the short drive to the coast where colourful villages await. 

Trulli Puglia 

This stunning villa is tucked away in a private residential complex on the sandy coastline of Capitolo. From the garden and terrace, you can admire sea views, whether you’re dining alfresco, swimming in the private pool, or soaking up the sun on a lounger. The swimming pool also has a whirlpool feature, helping you to relax even more. Monopoli is just 2 kilometres away, and is a superb spot for lunch and shopping. 

Blissful Beach House

It doesn’t get much more Puglian than a stay in a traditional trullo. Made entirely of whitewashed limestone, the distinctive conical design is a hallmark of the Itria Valley. This particular trullo has been tastefully updated to a space where historical charm meets modern comfort. There’s a mix of modern and antique furnishings, a small but well-equipped kitchen and a fabulous private pool, perfect for couples or a young family. Picture yourself taking a morning swim or a wander through the ancient olive groves that surround the garden. Escape from the midday heat with lunch and a glass of something chilled in the poolside pavilion before a snooze on one of the wooden sun loungers. Make sure you don’t miss a stroll through Alberobello, Puglia’s famous trulli town – there’s nowhere else like this in the world. 

Mountains Of Molehills

This stone house is a charming base for six in Monopoli. It’s close to the seafront, and boasts wonderful views of the sea and the historic city centre from the terrace. We love the alfresco dining area in the shade of the pergola, too – you’ll likely spend most of your time here outside. Inside, there are lots of stairs to navigate so it’s not a suitable choice for those with children under six. There are cosy corners for moments of relaxation, and quirky details that add charm. 

Azure Affair

Netflix

Nestled between the mountains and sea on the outskirts of Pezze di Greco village, this home serves up a little slice of Puglian paradise. Seamlessly blending traditional and modern, it’s an ideal base for families with plenty of space to spread out across three floors and a games room that will delight the little ones. That said, we think everyone will naturally gravitate to the outdoor space. Sun-drenched terraces, alfresco dining opportunities and a private pool - what more could you wish for? For days out exploring, Fasano town is a short drive away, or head a little further to the beaches of Savelletri, just ten kilometres away.
