Excl Five Acres Villa, Trulli & Gorgeous 12x6 Pool - AC -WiFi - Valle d'Itria

This property is Stylish Luxury in Puglia. The villa just kept on giving. Booking, communication, welcome pack, the style of every room was just so perfect. So many outdoor spaces to find and create cherished memories. Would like to return here one day. Thank you Alex, Claren and Francesco for an amazing holiday.

What a fantastic stay at a magical villa with an amazing pool. Alex and Francesco were the perfect hosts. The location is great, and our teenage boys enjoyed visiting nearby Monopoli during our stay. Lecce is also only an hour or so drive and well worth a visit. We would love to return to this wonderful part of Italy and would highly recommend it.

A beautiful property in the countryside outside of Martina Franca. The house was thoughtfully arranged and had everything we needed for a perfect holiday The trullo bedrooms were wonderfully cool, while the other rooms benefited from welcome air conditioning. a variety of dining spaces to choose from throughout our stay. The pool is larger than average, providing a superb area for both relaxation and fun.The entire property was impeccably clean and well-equipped. We can’t recommend this house highly enough.The owners are very friendly and responsive to any messages or queries.Would definitely come back and recommend to others

Our family (me, my wife, and two kids aged 12 and 14) enjoyed the masseria very much! The house is beautiful inside--all the rooms are spacious and with everything you need. Two of the bedrooms are in the trulli part of the structure and have the conical stone ceilings unique to that architecture. The weather was beautiful but fairly hot when we were there, so it was helpful that the air conditioning worked great when we needed it in the evenings. The property itself is beautiful and private, with lots of open space and terraces in which to enjoy dinner outside, and a lush landscape (which is not very common in this part of Italy). We all loved the large pool and had a few meals on the pool terrace.The location is great--about a 5 minute drive to Martina Franca and about 5 more minutes to Locorotondo, and easy drives to other towns. We appreciated the owners' generosity and attentiveness--they attended to any question we had very quickly. It's clear that the property is not just a house for the owners to rent, but is also a special place for their family as well. We would definitely stay here again.

We had a wonderful 3 week stay in this gorgeous villa, with a variety of friends and family staying with us for the holiday. The villa is exceptional and owners Alex and Claren made sure absolutely everything was taken care of. From the bi-weekly cleaning of the pool to the weekly house cleaning and the regular communication by WhatsApp offering us help and tips for our stay in Puglia. Nothing was overlooked and even when small issues arise, they were dealt with promptly and painlessly. I cannot recommend this house highly enough and very much look forward to our family visiting again. Thank you Alex, Claren and team for a wonderful holiday

We spent 2 weeks in Claren & Alex house in the blowing Itria Valley. The house in great and extremely well located, close to the typical villages of Puglia. The garden and the great pool were very appreciated by us and our teenagers. The house is nicely decorated and very well equipped. We loved our stay, and the advices both from Alex and Antonio the property managers were extremely useful. Big thank you ! Sabine & Thomas

Casa Giancone was fabulously comfortable and well-equipped and we loved our week in the Puglian sunshine! The large pool, with plenty of shady seating around it, was perfect in the current heatwave, and we loved the location away from, but close by to, several pretty towns (and tasty gelaterias!). Just bring some mosquito repellent in summer. Alex was a very attentive host - thank you! The house has lots of leaflets from local attractions but our only suggestion that would make exploring the area and eating out easier would be to provide a brief list of recommended places. Having said this, Alex was really happy to text me lots of info, and details of the local supermarket etc. We hope to be back!

An elegant oasis with character well positioned in the Valle d'Itria. Alex did everything he could to make our stay special. The house was wonderful with a gorgeous large pool. So much to see and explore in the area. Do not hesitate to stay at Giancone Estate!

Great location Very friendly and helpful local people who assist those not up to speed with Italian. Manager and staff exceptional We felt looked after. And if I had a question about local culture it was answered quickly and with detail. So we caught the annual piano festival in Martina Franca. Cleanliness and facilities excellent Grounds which are manicured offer fabulous fruit trees for breakfasts and snacks and herbs for cooking. Kitchen fully fitted and an outdoor BBQ. Use tbe wood from the grounds. Much tastier cooking results than charcoal. Open plan space allows comfort for all guests. Pool is clean and managed every 3 or 4 days whether it needs it or not. Security is ? Actually myself and all my companions have only positive things to say about our stay. We are sad to leave. Wish it had been longer. Ian

We had an incredible 10 days at Giancone Estate. The property and grounds are beautiful and peaceful, and the pool is stunning. Sunset from the roof terrace is magical too. The house is very well equipped, especially the kitchen (which seems to have everything you could ever want!). There was plenty of space inside and out for all of us (4 adults, 4 kids) and the aircon and fans kept the space mostly cool (the Trullo rooms can get a little warm, but we and the kids found it perfectly manageable). We had a pasta-making lesson from Lucrezia which the kids loved. Alex is the most communicative and responsive property owner of any private accommodation we have stayed with anywhere in the world! Martina was so helpful too. As other reviews have mentioned, you will need a lot of mosquito spray! And we had to stock up on bottled water, but we didn't have problems with a smell. You definitely need a car too, but the location is great for accessing most of the region's small/medium towns (most of which have good markets one day a week). All in all, a memorable stay, highly recommended.
