Stayed Jun 28, 2025Five Stars all around — The property was exactly how it is described in the listing. No surprises. The property managers, Pasquale and Giovanni, were excellent, responsive and helpful. They were available (before, during and after our arrival) to answer questions and make recommendations for local tour guides, restaurants and even a local restauranteur who came to the villa to cook for us. If you plan to see the region, you’ll need a car but the property has a carport that holds three vehicles. It is only about a 10 minute drive to Ostuni and 5 minute drive to a supermarket. From booking to check-out things couldn’t have been better. We would definitely recommend this property.

Stayed Jun 7, 2025We had a great holiday at the Villa Merlata. Highlights include the lovely pool, Anna Maria who came to make pizzas was lovely and overall a fantastic 2 weeks. Giovanni was very responsive and a great help and source of knowledge for restaurants etc.Only criticism would be that the kitchen appliances are dated and need to be upgraded. Otherwise it was a perfect base to explore Puglia.

Stayed Apr 19, 2025We had the most unforgettable stay at this beautiful villa in Puglia. From the moment we arrived at Villa Merlata, everything was perfect. The property is immaculately maintained that blends traditional charm and modern comfort. Every corner of the villa is thoughtfully designed, with comfortable furnishings, and all the amenities you could possibly need.The outdoor space was the highlight — olive trees, a sparkling pool, peaceful gardens, and outdoor kitchen. We spent our days relaxing by the pool, exploring nearby villages, and enjoying long dinners under the stars.The location is perfect for discovering the beauty of Puglia, yet secluded enough to feel completely private and peaceful. The hosts were incredibly kind and helpful, offering great recommendations and making sure our stay was flawless. Definitely have Anna Maria make a meal or pizza. Food was delicious!We can’t recommend this villa highly enough — it’s the kind of place you’ll never want to leave!

Stayed Sep 14, 2024The villa was excellent and Giovanni was a welcoming property manager. We had a great stay despite the weather being disappointing ( cloudy and some rain). We used Anna to cook us an evening meal and this was a great experience and very reasonably priced.

Stayed Aug 31, 2024Everything has been perfect from arrival to departure. Lovely place among olive trees. Swimming pool very clean, with crystal water all the week. The house was comfortable, good living room, better rooms. Air conditioning. But the best was Giovanni, really friendly and helpful.

Stayed Jun 22, 2024We chose Villa Merlata for our 2 week family vacation because it had all the features and location we were looking for. Our six adults and two 10-year-old twin boys required 4 bedrooms and baths, a swimming pool and convening tables for all of us for meals together and for playing family dominos. With three eight-seated tables in different locations, it was perfect, no matter the weather. We found ourselves relaxing and talking in the porch lounge area every morning and evening. The kitchen was well stocked with appropriate pots and tableware, although we found the need for and contributed a larger coffee maker. We ate all but 10 meals at the villa, choosing local restaurants both for some lunches and some dinners. The supermarket is only 10 minutes away by car, which is a necessity for this villa. A highlight was Anna making pizza for us one night and a surprise 25th anniversary dinner on another night that she made for us. The two refrigerators were useful, and the security system was easy to operate. The beds were comfortable and the bedrooms small but adequate. A/C in all the rooms was a necessity and worked well. Screens on all the windows. Giovanni was excellent and available to check us in and out according to our flight schedules. He was very helpful in suggesting restaurants and answering all our questions. Pasquale and his brother were attentive via WhatsApp and great hosts. The area is perfect for touring with 30 - 60-minute drives to key cities and attractions.

Stayed Aug 5, 2023Two weeks of Italian bliss in Villa Merlata with family. Plenty of room to spread out, & in the August heat the pool was heavenly. Nicely appointed & a great location for day trips to local towns & beaches. The property manager was very helpful & responsive.
