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.
