Breathtaking high end villa w/spectacular sea view

Castro, Castro, Italy

Experience the luxury of this brand-new villa, completed in 2023, situated in a unique and peaceful location overlooking the stunning Adriatic cliffs. You will be amazed by the panoramic views over the sea and when the sky is clear the breathtaking scenery of the Albanian mountains in the distance. The scent of rosemary and Mediterranean herbs will fill the air, and the sound of the cicadas will accompany you throughout the summer days. Nevertheless, looking out over the rugged cliffs and the sea, you might sometimes feel transported to the breathtaking landscapes of Scotland. brbrThis Apulian villa is built in the traditional style of white-washed, flat-roofed houses, but it spares no luxury. Large floor-to-ceiling windows, triple glazed for your comfort, offer stunning views of the sea and its ever-changing shades of blue throughout the day and seasons. The villa boasts four fully air-conditioned bedrooms (three double rooms, one single room), four modern bathrooms with showers, a spacious living and dining area, and a fully equipped kitchen. You will also find a guest toilet and a laundry room with a washing machine. Step outside to the partially shaded garden area, complete with an outdoor dining table, chairs, sun loungers, and a private pool (approx. 6x5m). The entire property is exclusively available to you, ensuring maximum privacy and comfort. brbrCastro and Santa Cesarea Terme, charming towns with everything you need, from shops to restaurants, cafés, and ice cream parlors, are just a short drive away via the coastal road. Just three kilometers north of the villa is the paradisiacal bay of Porto Miggiano, a hidden gem with white sand and crystal-clear water, surrounded by high rocks. Though the beach is not easy to reach (steep access with many steps), the reward is a true oasis that will make you feel like you're in the Seychelles, without the need for long flights or high CO2 emissions. brbr brbr brbr Sheets, duvets and towels are not included. If you don't want to bring them with you from home, regardless of the length of your stay, you can rent them for €26 per person. brbr Final cleaning is not included and costs €180, unless you clean yourselves before departure. brbr Pets are NOT allowed in this property. brbr We will ask you to pay a security deposit of €1000 before arrival. The security deposit will be refunded within 7 days after departure, if there is no damage. brbr Electricity costs (and thus where applicable AC, hot water, heating etc.) are NOT included in the price and will be charged based on your actual consumption. The price per kWh charged to guests was €0,48 on 06/01/2026, when this text was last updated. Prices may slightly change over time. brbrFeel free to reach out and we will be happy to share the average electricity consumption data for the season you're interested in. brbr brbr brbr ABOUT US brbrWe're a team of holiday enthusiasts with diverse backgrounds based between Italy and Switzerland. brbrOur mission is to find the most unique holiday homes, refurbish them and make them available to people like you, who want to live the authentic Italian experience at a high (Swiss!) quality, without spending a fortune brbr brbr By booking this accommodation, you accept that: brbr We are obliged by law to verify the identity of all our guests.

Romantic trullo with sea access and stunning views (house G)

Castro, Lecce, Italy

A magnificent area of 2.5 acres of pine trees with direct access to the sea, this romantic trullo, ideal for two or three people, offers spectacular views of the rocky cliffs of Castro and the Palombara cove. Immerse yourself in a corner of paradise where you can smell the fragrance of the Mediterranean and listen to seagulls and cicadas interrupted only by the sound of the waves. brbrThis house is located in an exclusive and unique estate consisting of several villas and trulli, separated by pine trees. It is known as La Palombara and was popular with VIPs in the seventies and eighties. At the end of 2019 we rediscovered this heavenly place and we chose to upgrade and redesign parts. It is now available for guests that are looking for a hideaway from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. In the photo gallery you will find a map of the entire grounds. brbrA path leads from the property directly to the sea. On your way down, the views are beathtaking. Once on the rocky beach, you will find four access points for swimming, diving, snorkeling or fishing in the crystal clear water of the Lower Adriatic Sea. It might be possible to see passing dolphins. (Caution: the path and access to the sea from the rocks is not suitable for small children or people with disabilities.) brbrThe trullo, made of beautiful stone walls, has one double room with en-suite bathroom with shower (completely renovated in May 2022) and a living space with kitchen (including a dishwasher), fireplace and an additional single bed. The interior is simple but functional; there is no TV nor air conditioning, but the thick walls and pine trees mitigate the heat of the summer sun. Just outside the building, a private partly shaded terrace offers wonderful views. brbrA barbecue and an outdoor shower complete the picture. brbrThe well-known fortified village of Castro, with its bars, cafes, restaurants and a supermarket, can be reached on foot in just ten minutes. The walk is along a charming path under the ancient Messapian walls. For those who prefer sandy beaches to rocks, the enchanting sandy beach of Porto Miggiano is 5 km away; very charming are also the coves of Porto Badisco and the long sandy beaches of Alimini, north of Otranto. brbr brbr brbr Sheets, duvets and towels are not included. If you don't want to bring them with you from home, regardless of the length of your stay, you can rent them for €26 per person. brbr Final cleaning is not included and costs €80, unless you clean yourselves before departure. brbr Dogs and pets are welcome, if you inform us in advance! Surcharge: €150 for the 1st one, €75 each for the others. Usually max 1 large or 2 small ones are allowed, but exceptions might be possible upon request. brbr We will ask you to pay a security deposit of €400 before arrival. The security deposit will be refunded within 7 days after departure, if there is no damage. brbr Electricity costs (and thus where applicable AC, hot water, heating etc.) are NOT included in the price and will be charged based on your actual consumption.

Cozy pool house with view, 3 min walk to sea

Castro, Castro, Italy

A pretty townhouse renovated in early 2024 in the center of the town of Castro, in a quiet side street between the castle on the hill and the marina. brbrThe owner of the house is an experienced blacksmith from Germany, so quality was a priority.

In the living room there is a comfortable double sofa bed. brbrThe kitchen is equipped with a fridge with freezer, induction stove, oven and dishwasher; crockery, cutlery and cooking utensils are provided. brbrOutside, you will find a nicely furnished terrace with a private pool and sun loungers, as well as a roof terrace with a fantastic view over the roofs of Castro, the sea and the coast. There are several partially covered or shaded seating and dining options, an outdoor stove and a grill on the roof terrace. The entire outdoor area is exclusively for you and is not shared with other guests. brbrFree WiFi is available.

Right next to the harbor there are several sea accesses from where you can swim in the crystal clear waters of the southern Adriatic. The old town of Castro with the castle, the piazza and the ancient city walls is also within walking distance. There are also cafes, restaurants and a few grocery stores for your daily needs. brbrIf you are arriving by car, there are free parking spaces not directly in front of the house, but in the immediate vicinity. brbr brbr brbr brbr Sheets, duvets and towels are not included.
