Lovely villa in a great location
We very much enjoyed our stay at Eric’s villa. The pool area is wonderful, the kitchen well-equipped and the villa is perfectly situated to visit places of interest in Puglia. Electricity a little temperamental but not a problem. Would have appreciated a top sheet on the beds. All in all, a great stay

Beautiful villa in a lovely part of Italy
We all loved the villa and were very sad to leave. We were very lucky with the weather 33 in the day and 23 at night so the pool got the most use, we spent many a happy hour cooling off in the pool and playing ball. We had a short ride on the electric bikes, just up the lane near the house and we definitely would have used them more if it had been cooler. The villa is more spacious than it looks on the photos and there was plenty of space for 5 adults. The outdoor area is huge with lots of different seating areas. My favourite part of the villa was it's character and that it had everything you could possibly need for a comfortable holiday. The villa is in an ideal position to discover Puglia. We visited Lecce (my favourtie) Ostuni, Alberobello (my husbands favourite), Brindisi and Polignino. The towns have such varied characters that we each had our own favourites. A special thank you to Eric who messaged us to tell us the England v Netherlands Euro 24 semi final was being shown in San Vito main square. It was a very enjoyable night and it was kind of Eric to think of us. I would love to return one day.

Awesome villa in magnificent setting.
We have just returned from the villa and we enjoyed every minute of our holiday. The villa exceeded all of our expectations and it seemed as though no detail had been overlooked. We spent a lot of time in the pool which is one of the largest we've ever had. The use of the e-bikes is such a great touch as there are many quiet country roads and trails around. Erik is the ultimate host who we can't praise enough, from his kind offer of early check in/late check out to considerate communications. I would recommend this villa to anyone!

Nice house - great garden/pool area!
Overall it's a really nice home! It has a lot of charm and it's very clean. The pool area and the cactus garden are VERY nice !! The owner and manager are very quick to respond to requests. There's many amenities that we appreciated: ping pong table, bikes et basketball ring. The only thing that refrains us from giving it a 5* all around is the kitchen ( a bit dated) and the cooking heat sources. Neither the gaz stove top, the mini oven nor the outside grill were easy/efficient to use. But would definitely recommend if you don't feel like cooking much :-) The other ting to consider, for people with reduce mobility, there are many stairs in the house.

Relaxing in the Puglian countryside
We had a great time staying in San Vito. Perfect place to relax by the pool or go exploring the amazing countryside. We took trips to Matera, Ostuni, Lecce and visited Monopoli on our way to our next stop. Lovely pool area with several sitting areas. Soacious interior with a well equipped kitchen. Erik was great to communicate with before and during our stay and left some welcoming treats for us. Wish we could have stayed longer as feel we only scratched the surface of Puglia!

A perfect Italian escape
From the moment we arrived, till the moment we left, this was the perfect getaway. Our flight wasn’t due into Brindisi until late and Eric helped us hire a car in advance which was waiting for us at arrivals. Only a short drive from the airport and we arrived at the villa where we were greeted with a welcome card and bottle of wine which was much appreciated. We’d already had a welcome pack emailed to us so we knew exactly how to get into the property and how to find everything. The bedrooms are cool with the air conditioning and the beds and pillows are super comfortable. There is a shower upstairs and a bath downstairs. The kitchen is well equipped. The entire place was spotlessly clean. The pool and surrounding area with loungers is perfect with plenty of seating areas and parasols if you needed to get shade from the sun. Eric was quick to respond to any WhatsApp messages we sent and was very helpful with restaurant recommendations etc. Our favourite restaurant in the area was a 10 minute bike ride away called Ristolio - one to try for definite. Amazing food in the most beautiful outdoor setting under the olive trees. I can’t fault this place at all. If you’re looking for a family sized villa in a great location to explore the area then look no further. Just make sure you have a car!! Great places to visit are Lecce, Ostuni, Locorotondo, and our personal favourite Alberobello.

Lovely property in quiet road of other villas but completely private. Great pool that is a really good size so you can have a decent swim. Possible to walk to town if you wish but a car is definitely required generally. Great base to explore the area. Hosts very communicative and helpful. Highly recommend.

Beautiful villa with fantastic pool
We have rented several villas in Italy. This one was beautifully decorated and had the most comfy beds of any villa we have stayed in. The pool was wonderful, and we really appreciated the outdoor furniture and sturdy sun loungers which all had new cushions. The villa was a real home from home and had everything you could possibly need. It was very private but only a short drive from supermarkets. The villa is ideally situated as a base for exploring beautiful Puglia. Every village and town in the area has a pretty historic centre so don't just visit places mentioned in the guide books! I highly recommend the villa and hope to return!

Great choice to enjoy Puglia summer
This lovely house is fully equipped to enjoy the hot days of Puglia in July. The pool in large grounds with lots of places to relax, but also table tennis and bikes if you want to be more energetic. Temptation is not to move from the house, but there are lots of interesting places to visit within an hour’s drive, as well as San Vito itself - which we found to be a friendly, lively and authentic town. We found it worked well to mix visits with plenty of time enjoying all the property offers. Eric was very helpful, responding promptly when we had a problem with the water supply. We appreciated the generous supplies provided so you don’t have to rush out to the supermarket immediately.

In August in Puglia, its all about the outside
This property has a really great outdoors. The pool is the prime focus - bigger than usual and surrounded in a variety of lovely seating areas. Good BBQ area. Bedrooms were good with efficient Air Con. Kitchen was adequately equipped for simple meals. The owner was very welcoming and friendly. She was also so helpful with top tips on local shops (notably wine!) and places to visit. The nearby town of San Vito had all the amenities you need (good supermarket), but was not drop-dead gorgeous. We had a really great time. I would recommend this rental. P.S. I would say car hire is essential - the walk into town was beyond me! Parking there was easy.

Rustic Italy
We had a lovely week staying at Jackie, Vincenza and Grace's villa. They were very attentive hosts and dealt with accommodation problems quickly. The pool is a delight although unfortunately, the weather wasn't. However, if you want to experience the real Italy as it was before tourists invaded this is the place to go. Eating out is cheap and the visit to the wine shop with Jackie set us up for the week. One piece of advice take lots of mosquito repellent as we were covered in bites. Lovely rustic Italy would definitely recommend.

A beautiful Country House Villa
A wonderful holiday in this beautiful country house villa. The villa was very comfortable and spacious for our party of 6. The pool and outdoor area is beautiful - great for swimming and a few yoga sessions! The owners are very friendly and helpful and gave us great recommendations for places to visit and eat. They also helped arrange additional car hire for us whilst we were there - even picking us up and taking us to collect the car! Car hire is essential - it's easy to drive the short distance to the outskirts of San Vito and walk in to the town centre. There is easy access to supermarkets and a great bakery for bread, pizza, croissants and pastries! Our favorite place to eat and wander was Ostuni- a whitewashed hilltop town - it has a real 'buzz' in the evenings. A wonderful relaxing holiday -thank you Jackie, Vincenzo and Grace.

Magnificent Villa and Pool, Lovely vacation
The photos do not do this villa justice, they can't capture the incredible ambiance we felt. The villa is absolutely enchanting, you feel all the personal touches as the owner restored the villa himself. The pool was huge, larger then most hotels we've stayed in. The banana trees and surround the pool and we felt as if we were on a tropical island. It was quiet and peaceful, we even saw shooting stars. It was nice being able to walk into town at night and we perfectly safe as there were streetlights all the was to the gate of the villa. San Vito offered a lively nightlife and great local cuisine. We were shocked at how inexpensive it was. It was a great location to travel around pugilia, the had easy access to the highway and it was very easy to find the villa. We never got lost!! For a family of 6, we all have space to spread out and relax. The villa had all the modern comforts and we felt truly at home. It was our most memorable family vacation. The owners made everything so easy for us and we're very helpful. Thanks for a lovely vacation Browne family

Relaxing Family Break
We stayed at Villa Grace in early/mid June with our two grown up children and had a wonderful, relaxing week away from the hustle and bustle of city and work life. Jackie and her family were the perfect hosts, from booking through to checkout the process was a breeze and nothing was too much trouble for Jackie. Even though we never managed to walk into town, which is a cute place and best visited after 8pm, the house is conveniently located for access to a wonderful beach at Torre Guacheto and the delights of Lecce, Ostuni and Alberobello which are all worth a visit. Wish we had stayed for 2 weeks to explore even further. The house is very authentic and the 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms make it convenient for a large family or 2 -3 couples. Most evenings we spent on the lovely patio having a BBQ or a meal prepared in the well equipped kitchen. Our most favourite part though was the amazing pool outside (you can swim proper lenghths)with the beautiful garden and plenty of lounging space to enjoy the amazing food and wine available locally. You must ask Jackie for the "wine on tap" shop and the directon to "Don Famiglia" baker. A couple of minor things, which did not impact on our overall enjoyment, but although the bed in the master bedroom looked nice it was a bit wobbly and we found the mattress not too comfy and we would like to have had a couple of umbrellas by the pool as there wasn't a lot of shade in the midst of the day but it did not prevent us from enjoying our stay. Would we come again? Yes definitely as soon as we find a window of opportunity amidst other travel plans and we have already recommended it to some friends and family. Thank you again Jackie, Vincenzo and Grace for making us feel welcome and renting out your lovely Villa Grace. Hope to see you again soon :-)
