About Villa La Residenza, Puglia

With its pretty blue shutters and grand stone exterior, La Residenza captures your attention as soon as you set eyes on it. The picturesque luxury villa is surrounded by flat, unspoilt countryside which is scattered with olive groves and you can enjoy views out towards the Adriatic Sea which is just a short walk away.

Inside, the historic building has been restored and modernised, retaining many of the original features while enhancing the spaces with elegant décor and all the mod-cons. The five suites are all bright with whitewashed walls, stone floors and some with traditional arched stone ceilings, complimented by plush ornate soft furnishings that nod to Italy’s stylish design reputation. Similarly, in the main living spaces you’ll find rustic stairwells, and perfectly preserved traditional Apulian botte ceilings alongside bright Art Deco furniture and an impressive collection of artworks.

For those travelling in the summer months, the villa’s real selling point is its striking outside space. Here you’ll find sweeping lawns, colourful flowers and a huge, heated swimming pool surrounded by plush sun loungers and your very own poolside bar. The views of the endless olive trees can be admired from the villa’s vast roof terrace.

There is also a shaded pergola with outdoor living and dining furniture for al fresco meals at any time of day. And for those who want to stay fit on holiday, there is even an outdoor gym space, with Technogym equipment and yoga mats. You can stay active whilst exploring the picturesque landscapes on the complimentary bikes – the perfect way to explore the Puglian landscapes.
