Puglia-Ostuni-country life, private pool, sea view, 6 km Torre Guaceto
Villa Siena is a country house set in 2,900 square meters of land (about 3/4 acres), including a Mediterranean garden, olive grove, and fruit trees. It features its own private 8 x 5.5 m, 1.40 m high swimming pool (open from May to the end of September) and a panoramic terrace with sweeping views of the Adriatic Sea. It is 3 km from Specchiolla beach and about 4 km from the Torre Guaceto nature reserve. It is located in open countryside, but not isolated, just 5 km from the charming town of Carovigno and 12 km from Ostuni. It features a comfortable living and dining room with air conditioning, and three covered verandas overlooking the garden and pool. The villa has been recently renovated, with new furnishings (sofas, dining table, display cabinet, refrigerator, beds and bedside tables, mattresses and pillows, pool loungers, sofa and terrace armchair, plates, cups, glasses, tablecloths, beach towels, and bed linens). Villa Siena has three bedrooms (3m x 3m), all equipped with air conditioning: one with a double bed, one with a queen-size bed, with a private bathroom with shower, and a bedroom with two single beds. All windows have shutters, mosquito nets, and an alarm system. Outside, there are two large covered verandas, a private swimming pool, a small trullo, a wood-fired oven for pizza and bread, and a new barbecue. Olive trees, pears, almonds, pomegranates, grapes, figs, prickly pears, and many ornamental plants grow in the garden, in addition to trees, flowers, and shrubs. Guests can pick grapes, figs, and almonds in season for their daily use. Aside from obvious attractions such as the pool and the magnificent beaches of Torre Guaceto, a nature reserve, offers magnificent cities to visit nearby: Lecce and its Baroque architecture, Alberobello and its characteristic trulli, Martina Franca, Locorotondo, Polignano a Mare, and more. Puglia's cuisine is also worth discovering, with its traditional, affordable restaurants. Perfect for outdoor living in the summer, with large covered verandas surrounding the villa, where seating is provided for al fresco dining or simply relaxing. Relax by the pool in the summer, or sit on the rooftop terrace with a cool drink in the evening, gazing at the blue sea and magnificent sunsets, any time of year. The owners believe this would be a suitable stay for families; please note that the pool area is unsupervised, and parts of the garden are rocky. There is a wall around the rooftop terrace, but children, especially younger ones, need careful supervision. All accommodations are on one level, but there is a small step up to the terrace surrounding the house. Approximately 4.5 in. (12 cm). The roof terrace is inaccessible to anyone with mobility issues, but the lower verandas have only a small step. FREE WI-FI AVAILABLE THE POOL IS OPEN FROM MAY TO THE END OF SEPTEMBER IMPORTANT NOTICE: On very hot days, excessive electricity use may occur throughout the area due to the extensive use of air conditioning. This can cause brief power outages. This has happened three times in 2020: once in July and twice in August. The outages lasted a maximum of two hours. We understand this is an inconvenience, but there's nothing we can do about it. This is a widespread problem throughout the area. The entire area is NOT served by a mains water supply. The water is drawn from a 60-meter-deep artesian well. It's pure water but not drinkable; it's suitable for drinking, but ONLY AFTER BOILING.

Very nice house, with big clean pool. Super seaview from the rooftop terrace. Short drive to great towns such as Lecce and Ostuni. Also 5 mins from the sea.
We enjoyed our stay at Liliana’s lovely house. The property is very large and lush with beautiful plantings and trees. And what is not to like about the beautiful pool! The beds were comfortable and we appreciated how well the kitchen was stocked for the meals we prepared.
The location was very convenient to see the sights. Highly recommend a stay and hope to return.

the house super fine. owner and contactperson super! Guisuppina is great help and always replying on questions even on touristic topics. House is full operational and provids all you want and are used to as at home. There is coffee tea salt pepper etc etc.great pool and good working airco’s. We can recomment it. Negatieve is that you must drive 8-10 minutes to a place to have a drink or to eat.

We enjoyed our stay very much. Good communications with Lilliana and Guiseppina. Guiseppina was very helpful.
Tricky having no postcode to find the property especially when we arrived in the dark! We were sent the Google map link but took a while to get a WiFi signal.
Nevertheless we especially loved the pool, bathrooms rather small, and lost hot water on a couple of occasions, also we did not find the mattresses very comfortable. Overall though very good.

I'm sorry you struggled to find a home. The check-in is usually until 4 pm For you Giuseppina stopped until 10 pm due to the delay of your plane, but she sent you the exact position of the house. Your cell phone was probably not working properly.
As for the mattresses, the taste is very personal. There are those who prefer them soft, others hard. No one has ever complained before. We will do some checks. Thanks Liliana
From booking via vrbo to the check out, everything was a smooth process. Liliana was very helpful with all my questions leading up to the stay. The accommodation was easy to find (via google maps) and the pictures of the villa and descriptions were exactly how it was when arriving at the villa. Instructions were very clear and Giuseppina (house keeper) was welcoming and helpful. Communication from both Liliana and Giuseppina was fast. Location was great with only 20 mins drive to Ostuni and a 10min drive to the nearest Supermarket (Familia San Vito). We do recommend a car for ease of travel. One part which was a bit confusing was setting the house alarm, but just need to be patient. Highly recommend this villa. You will not be disappointed! Thank you Liliana and Giuseppina!

Thanks Louise. I'm glad you enjoyed the house. You're right, the alarm is a little dated, even if it works, in fact we plan to replace it soon. Greetings Liliana
Grounds and pool are lovely
Lack of shade at the poolside (only one small parasol) and on the terrace (no shade in the morning).
Air con does not work well, particularly in bedroom area, we were very hot at night.
Outside space lighting isn’t good eg bbq in darkness, had to use my phone to light but seating area extremely bright/ too bright- so we sat at the table rather than using this space.
Seating area is in direct sunlight in the morning so not well positioned or needs an awning to give shade.

Good morning Gemma, I am very sorry that you did not fully appreciate your stay in Puglia. In fact that week was exceptionally hot (40 degrees) and the temperature in the house could not go down to 18° as requested and desired. The house has three porches, you could simply move the table to the more shaded porch if the 9 am sun bothered you for breakfast, I love it. In an email at the time of booking I gave you all the useful details of the house and explained that there is often a strong wind and therefore umbrellas larger than the one provided are dangerous. I will take your suggestions into consideration anyway.
Best regards Liliana
The Villa is well appointed and was clean and tidy on arrival. The local property manager was really helpful on check in and provided plenty of suggestions and help through the week.
The space indoors and out is lovely; we especially enjoyed the terraces in the evening (both ground floor and the roof terrace), the outdoor bbq facilities, and the pool. Due to plenty of plants/trees on the large property plot, the Villa really feels secluded and very tranquil.
A car is required, but it’s only a short drive to plenty of local amenities and attractions. The old centres of the two local villages are very lovely, and ostuni, about 15mins away, is a must see. The Villa is also only a short drive (5-10mins) from some laid back beach bars and a waterside nature reserve with plenty of beach options.
The Villa is conveniently located for airports and the north of Puglia, whilst also allowing access via a reasonable drive to the the southern part of Puglia and the beaches of salento. Lecce was a forty minute drive, and 45 minutes got us to the wonderful beaches on the coast.
Would happily stay again at Villa Siena (and probably will in the next couple of years!)

Danke für die lieben Worte der Wertschätzung. Ihr wart sehr freundliche und respektvolle Gäste im Haus.
Viele Grüße, Liliana
Eine tolle Unterkunft im wunderschönen Apulien. Der Garten rund ums Haus ist traumhaft angelegt. Auch alles weitere entspricht exakt den Angaben des Inserates. Wirklich rundum sehr schön.
Wir haben mit unseren beiden Kindern (5 und 7 Jahre) drei Wochen in diesem wunderschönen Haus verbracht. Das Anwesen mit Pool und Haus sind in Wirklichkeit noch viel schöner als auf den Fotos. Die Terrasse ist ein Traum, der Pool war für unsere Kinder großartig. Wir können dieses Haus wirklich nur empfehlen. Wir wurden sehr herzlich empfangen und konnten uns mit jeglichen Fragen an die Vermieterin bzw. die zuständige Hilfe vor Ort wenden. Alles war sehr gepflegt und geschmackvoll eingerichtet. Alles in einem Top Zustand! Die Lage des Hauses ist auch sehr gut, man fährt ca. 15 Minuten zum Strand und die gleiche Zeit nach Carovigno bzw. Ostuni! Und zum Flughafen nach Brindisi sind es nur 20 Minuten.

Vielen Dank für die freundlichen Worte der Anerkennung.
Wir haben zwei Wochen in diesem wunderschönen Haus verbracht und uns sehr wohlgefühlt. Das Grundstück ist sehr groß, komplett eingezäunt und sehr gepflegt. Es gibt neben dem wunderschönen Pool einen Grill und einen Pizzaofen, außerdem eine Bohoschaukel zum Seele baumeln lassen. Das Haus hat eine überdachte Terrasse und eine Dachterrasse mit Blick aufs Meer und ist wirklich mit allem ausgestattet, was das (Urlauber-) Herz begehrt.Liliana ist eine Vollblutgastgeberin und möchte, dass sich ihre Gäste wohlfühlen. Das spürt man im ganzen Haus. Sie hat uns schon im Vorfeld viele Informationen zum Haus, der Umgebung, zu Märkten etc. zukommen lassen, was für uns sehr hilfreich war und wir schon von zu Hause aus ein paar Dinge planen konnten. Als wir angekommen sind, war schon Wasser, Milch und frisches Obst im Kühlschrank. Auch Giuseppina möchten wir erwähnen, die uns das Haus übergeben und uns alles erklärt hat, uns auch während des Urlaubs bei Fragen zur Verfügung stand, uns Tipps für Restaurants und Strände gegeben hat usw. Auch sie ist super lieb und hilfsbereit!! Das Haus ist sehr sauber, worauf wir persönlich sehr großen Wert legen. Die Bäder sind wie in den vorherigen Bewertungen schon erwähnt etwas kleiner, aber in unseren Augen völlig ausreichend. Jeweils mit Waschbecken und WC sowie Dusche bzw. Badewanne ausgestattet. Von der Terrasse hat man einen schönen Blick aufs Grüne und den Pool - Urlaubsfeeling pur.
Wij hebben een heerlijk verblijf gehad in Villa Siena.
Lekker huis en een fantastische tuin met een ruime buiten ruimte. Heerlijk zwembad
In één woord fantastisch
Communicatie, gastvrijheid alles was top!

C'est nous qui vous remercions pour vos aimables paroles d'appréciation. Vous êtes les bienvenus si vous souhaitez revenir.
Wir hatten eine schöne Zeit in der Villa Siena. Guiseppina hat uns sehr nett begrüßt und mit Tipps versorgt, sie war ebenso wie die Vermieterin, die uns vorab über alles Wichtige informierte, über WhatsApp erreichbar.
Das Haus ist sehr sauber und mit allem, was man braucht, ausgestattet, wir haben den Pool sehr genossen, ebenso den Blick rundherum in den Garten.
Die Lage ist prima für Ausflüge in die interessanten Städte in der Umgebung wie zB Matera, Lecce oder um abends in Ostuni mit einem Glas Wein und tollem Ausblick an der Stadtmauer im Avenida 40 Café zu sitzen.
Wir können die Villa Siena absolut weiterempfehlen!

Une villa très bien équipée, très propre et dotée d'un toit terrasse avec vue sur la mer à 180 degrés. Un jardin méditerranéen magnifique, une belle piscine et un accueil chaleureux et plein d'attention de Giuseppina et Liliana. Merci mesdames pour ce séjour parfait qui nous a tous enchanté.
Wir waren Anfang Oktober 2023 für eine Woche in diesem wunderschönen und gepflegten Anwesen. Es ist sehr gross und idyllisch gelegen, inmitten von Oliven-, Feigen-, Apfelbäumen usw. Giuseppina hat uns perfekt vor Ort betreut. Sie war ausserordentlich hilfsbereit und hat uns wertvolle Tipps rund um die schöne Gegend gegeben. Sie war stets per Whatsapp erreichbar und hat jeweils umgehend geantwortet falls wir eine Frage oder Anliegen hatten. Fazit: Wir hatten eine wundervolle Ferienwoche mit reichlich Sonnenschein! Herzlichen Dank an Liliana und Giuseppina

Wir haben schon viele Häuser gemietet und dieses hier ist ganz oben auf der Bestenliste mit dabei. Wir waren zu sechst dort und hatten eine wunderbare Zeit. Das Haus ist praktisch, geschmackvoll und mit allem notwendigen ausgestattet. Der Garten ist toll, es gibt verschiedene Plätze um zu verweilen und seine Ruhe zu haben. Selber Pizza im Holzofen backen war ein Erlebnis. Giuseppina, die Verwalterin war immer für uns da. Grazie!!!

About the host
Hosted by Liliana
Liliana Baronio and Gianfranco Rodella are the new owners of Villa Siena. Residents in Lombardy have always loved this land. Guests will be welcomed by a trusted person who will take care of everything to make their stay enjoyable.
Why they chose this property
we rent villa Siena for short periods, it is a country house, surrounded by unspoiled nature and it must be lived and enjoyed for a long time. The maintenance costs are many and to make it beautiful, comfortable and welcoming we need to rent it for short periods to people who appreciate the beauty and know how to respect.
What makes this property unique
We loved this house immediately. It is a simple but well-kept house, located in a quiet, slightly hilly area with small plots of red soil bordered by dry stone walls, many centuries-old olive trees everywhere and, in the background, the sea. I think it's the ideal place for a relaxing holiday. Quiet but possibility of interesting excursions, countryside but a magnificent sea just a few steps away, silence but with many restaurants nearby where you can enjoy excellent dishes at fair prices. City of art and history a few miles. Lecce, Martina Franca, Ostuni, Alberobello Cisternino etc. These are just a few examples of what you can visit
