With distant sea views, a private pool, and a charming verandah that acts as an extension to the inside of the home, it’s not hard to see why this villa caught our eye. We think it’s an ideal base for small families seeking an Italian break on the coast. Surrounded by quaint towns just waiting to be explored, there’s plenty to occupy your time here, but in an area famed for its golden beaches and crystal clear waters, a day splashing in the sea is a must. And you’re in luck – Pescoluse beach, nicknamed the ‘Maldives of Salento’, is a mere two kilometres away.
