Review
Located in Savelletri di Fasano, this private five-suite villa was originally a farmhouse built in 1800 for a noble family. It is now a stylish, if somewhat eclectic retreat, and has a lovely oversized pool and pretty grounds complete with security gates. All five suites have separate entrances and the property accommodates up to 12 people, with views of the surrounding olive groves and farmland. The two-floor villa has numerous terraces and entertaining spaces, pretty vaulted ceilings and an outdoor gym is conveniently tucked away near the pool, along with a laundry room. There is a multimedia sound system, satellite TV, air conditioning and WiFi. The villa also has the use of a private beach club nearby. The kitchen area would be very small for a family or group, but there is room to spread out and entertain on the first floor or the terraces; a private chef can be brought in to cook meals. Contact Indagare to book this villa.
