Just a few minutes from Lecce and nestled in the authentic Salento countryside, Villa Arabeque is much more than a residence: it is a private estate designed to help you slow down, reconnect with yourself, and enjoy a complete experience that blends nature, comfort, and well-being. Surrounded by centuries-old olive trees, dry stone walls, and Mediterranean scents, the property spans five hectares and accommodates up to 24 guests in a refined balance of traditional architecture and contemporary design. The spaces are the result of the skillful restoration of ancient rural areas, now transformed into places dedicated to relaxation and conviviality. The twelve rooms, all with private bathrooms, offer distinct yet cohesive atmospheres, featuring artisanal details, natural materials, and a sensory attention to detail that promotes rest and privacy. Some suites open onto private terraces or include unique elements such as small private pools, tubs, or spaces dedicated to meditation. The heart of the villa is a comprehensive wellness facility: a spa housed in the former oil mill, featuring a heated indoor pool, hammam, sauna, and relaxation areas, complemented by a large outdoor pool surrounded by greenery—perfect for alternating moments of tranquility and socializing. The common areas, both indoor and outdoor, are designed to adapt to every pace, from shared dinners under the pergolas to group activities, all the way to the most secluded corners for silence. Villa Arabeque is ideal for large families, groups of friends, retreats, or private events thanks to dedicated spaces such as the seminar room, the gym, the sports fields, and a charming chapel. Its proximity to the sea and some of Puglia’s most iconic destinations also allows guests to alternate life on the estate with exploring the surrounding area. Here, everything is designed to be fluid and customizable: from the included services to the possibility of creating tailor-made experiences. The result is an intimate yet complete setting, where every stay takes shape naturally, following the wishes of those who experience it.
Nestled among Negroamaro and Primitivo vineyards and centuries-old olive groves, Villa Presta is a 17th-century Salento farmhouse transformed into a modern retreat that celebrates the rural spirit of Salento. The estate spans twenty hectares of red earth, featuring orchards, arboretums, woodlands, and a reflective lake, offering a panorama of Mediterranean scents and colors. The villa’s agricultural roots now blend with a “farm-to-table” philosophy: wine, extra-virgin olive oil, fruit, and seasonal produce grown on-site enrich every dish, from daily menus to customized programs for retreats and gourmet guests. The six suites combine historic character with contemporary comfort: king-size linen beds, underfloor heating, discreet air conditioning, and high-speed Wi-Fi. Some open onto panoramic terraces ideal for yoga at sunrise or aperitifs at sunset, while others feature original stone fireplaces and cozy sitting areas. The former stables house rooms that prioritize the sounds of nature over traditional media, while the common areas offer rustic kitchens, lounges, and spaces for socializing. The day unfolds with walks along the botanical trail, swims in the two pools nestled among aromatic herbs, tennis matches, or bike rides to the sea. Villa Presta is also a haven for retreats and workshops: the Granaio Studio and the Belvedere Platform offer indoor and outdoor spaces with 360-degree views for yoga, meditation, or creative activities, always with the support of Camisa Essential for tailored experiences, such as olive oil masterclasses, nighttime grape harvests, or e-bike tours of Lecce. Sustainability, local craftsmanship, and community are core values: solar energy, water recycling, furnishings crafted by local artisans, and scholarships for young chefs round out the experience. Villa Presta is not just a place: it is an encounter with history, nature, and the authentic rhythm of Salento life, ready to welcome those seeking a rejuvenating retreat, an informal luxury, or a sensory journey into the heart of southern Italy.
Villa Vincenzi is a retreat nestled in the Apulian countryside that invites you to slow down from the very first moment, surrounded by centuries-old olive trees and neat rows of vines that define an authentic, timeless landscape. Here, the atmosphere is that of a contemporary farmhouse elegantly reimagined, where every space is designed to allow for a seamless transition between indoor and outdoor living. The six bedrooms, all with private bathrooms, guarantee comfort and privacy, while the bright spaces and natural materials reflect a refined Apulia, characterized by warm tones, balance, and attention to detail. Life in the villa flows slowly and pleasantly: from quiet breakfasts immersed in the tranquility of the countryside to long lunches under the pergola, right through to aperitifs that spontaneously turn into dinners. The pool and relaxation areas become the heart of each day, spaces where time expands and “dolce far niente” finds its truest meaning. It is a place that fosters connection—with oneself and with others—without sacrificing a refined yet understated aesthetic. To make the experience even more seamless, a dedicated concierge service steps in, capable of crafting a bespoke stay both before and during your visit. From arranging transfers to pre-arrival grocery shopping, from dinners with a private chef to local wine tastings, every detail is handled with precision and discretion. It is not about adding services, but about creating a rhythm consistent with the way you wish to experience your vacation. Villa Vincenzi is the ideal choice for those seeking a balance between simplicity and luxury, between nature and comfort, in a setting that transforms every moment into an authentic and effortless experience.
