House holiday rentals in Montalbano

Wonderful stay in a lost paradise of the Itria Valley! I had studied several options and this one was the best for the extremely central location, 10 minutes from Ostuni, and within reasonable distance of the main sights. This small house in the middle of nature has a great charm. While it must be perfect in summer, it is also perfect in winter, thanks to the wood stove that allows you to live around a real fireplace. It's a bit rustic (you have to relight the fire in the morning when you wake up), but it's exactly what we were looking for, and thanks to the kindness of James (who took care of buying the wood for us), we were able to enjoy his home in the best conditions. Very well-equipped house. So I would highly recommend it!

he was incredible kind and friendly person always warm and welcoming and ready to help with anything we needed. it really made a difference added a personal touch to our experience. the accommodation was spotless tastefully decorated and located in a peaceful country side setting in pulia. we especially love the amazing pool it was a perfect place to relax and enjoy the surroundings. everything was exactly as we hope if not better. we fell completely at ease and would absolutely love to return. highly recommend.

What a find!! This beautiful Apulian villa nestled among the olive groves of Ostuni was beyond all of our expectations!! The home , including an historical Trulo and luxurious pool are immaculate ; surrounded by pristine gardens all natural and organic. The white washed city of Ostuni is minutes away offering an abundance of restaurants, shopping and historical sites. Beautiful beaches are a short drive away with soft sandy beaches and the beautiful clear waters of the Adriatic Sea. Barbara and her husband were extremely helpful and always available to help in any way! Barbara's recommendations were spot on and she even went out of her way to make reservations for us at restaurants, cooking classes and wine tours! I highly recommend this amazing villa for your next vacation!

Our stay has been amazing! The host is very welcoming and helpful. The property is clean, very well decorated and furnished. The location in the city center is very convenient. You can leave the car in the garage and enjoy walking through the city. We loved it a lot.!

Everything Perfect and magical

This is a very special place, a beautiful and comfortable house, gorgeous pool, and extensive grounds with lots of places to sit, read and relax during the day. A perfect place for three generations as there’s a separate studio apartment providing peace for grandparents, if needed! We were torn between wanting to explore the towns nearby, but also wanting to spend time enjoying the villa. Ale is a brilliant host. Thoroughly recommended.

We stayed in mid-May and found this a beautiful place to stay, with both the tastefully renovated property itself and all the outside areas being clearly well maintained and cared for. Trullo Lilia is a peaceful and relaxing oasis yet only a very short drive from two lovely towns with a variety of bars, restaurants and supermarkets. Also, we can’t heap enough praise on Viviana our Welcome Manager who provided lots of local info and help, as well as promptly sorting an issue with the water heating she brought to our attention on arrival.

We have just returned home to the UK , having spent a week at Natasha & David's villa . It is simple, retaining many of the original features of the property . Well appointed , fantastic air conditioning, lovely pool . Really beautifully finished inside, comfy beds and lovely bed linen . It is very private but not too far from anywhere, lots of choice within a 10-20 minute drive . The area has retained its original character and charm. The villa allows you to completely switch off. There are two really friendly cats at the property who are no bother and stay outside but appreciate a cuddle and some food and water ! David was really helpful and attentive and really speedy with responses . We had a faultless week, worth every penny . We fully intend to go back .

Pleasant accommodation on the ground floor, 12 minutes walk from the center. The terrace and parking are a real plus. The apartment is spacious, nicely decorated, and Michele is very friendly and helpful. A few small maintenance and equipment adjustments would make everything perfect, but overall we were very pleased with our stay.

We really enjoyed our stay in this lovely authentic old building! We felt like locals! It’s just on the edge of the old town with beautiful views over the surrounding countryside. All the wonderful bars and restaurants are so close. There is everything you need in the kitchen including a great coffee machine! The bed is huge and it’s one of the most comfortable we’ve ever slept in! The veranda was perfect to enjoy a glass of wine in the afternoon sun. Francesco was very friendly and helpful as a host. The perfect place to explore this part of Puglia!

A relaxing holiday with family. The accommodation was immaculate especially with the hard work the housekeeper put in every day in the communal areas! Luckily during our stay we had the communal areas to ourselves during the majority of our stay but even with other guests, there is plenty of space. Look forward to returning again in the very near future.

Great location, excellent host and flexible check-in/out. We had to leave early (and unexpectedly!), and the host was very understanding!

Friendly people, a lovely clean pool and enjoyed the area.

Gianni was very responsive and helpful throughout our stay. I’d highly recommend this home - Cisternino is beautiful and a bit more unique and quaint than the nearby towns. Hope to be back!

Maria and Francesco are fantastic hosts and the Trullo Primitivo met all our expectations. A delightful quiet place in the old Trullo, which is equipped with every comfort inside and has been furnished with great care and creativity. What was very nice is that all the basic things in the house are already present. The backyard provides a lot of privacy. It is a great base for discovering the area and the beaches by car.

Simona's place is such a nice peaceful break from the hustle and bustle of exploring towns and cities. You hear birds chirping all day and Simona is such a friendly host that gives you everything you need but also makes sure you have privacy to just relax.

Casa Greco is very nicely decorated, furnished and well equipped. It’s about a 10 minute walk down the hill to the centre of Ostuni. Mela was a very helpful and communicative host and responded quickly with our queries. Just one thing to note, there are quite a lot of steep steps within the property, so it might not suit everyone, but we enjoyed our stay there. Thank you!

You’d be right to think the best thing about this home is the pool — it was a highlight — but you need to know that the other best thing about this home is the host, Elisabetta. We had an amazing week thanks to the many ways she went above and beyond to help us experience Puglia. On four or five occasions, Elisabetta helped us secure reservations at restaurants, in a masseria, and for an olive oil tour and tasting. Not only that, but she considered our interests and preferences to discuss and help us decide on which places and experiences we’d enjoy the most. Airbnb was founded to connect people to hosts like Elisabetta. One of our most memorable hosts yet (70+ stays and counting). Grazie mille Elisabetta e ci vediamo in Minnesota un giorno!

Ideally located apartment for tourism. Very well-equipped and decorated. Feeling of a change of scenery while being at home. We are very pleased with our stay.

We had an absolutely fantastic stay at Leonardo’s property! Nestled in a peaceful olive grove, the home offered the perfect blend of tranquility and convenience. We especially loved starting each day with an espresso on the patio, surrounded by nature and calm. The house itself was spotless, well-maintained, and an incredible value for the price. Just a short 10-minute drive to the beach, we were able to enjoy the beach daily, while also taking advantage of the many excellent restaurants nearby and in the charming downtown of Monopoli. Leonardo was a wonderful host—warm, accommodating, and extremely responsive. He even welcomed us with a bottle of wine, which was such a thoughtful touch! Monopoli proved to be the ideal base for exploring the region. We took day trips to Bari, Lecce, Matera, and Alberobello—all easily accessible by car (which we definitely recommend having) We truly enjoyed every aspect of our stay and wouldn’t hesitate to return. Highly recommend!

This place is just magical. Everything worked beautifully and they were so helpful at helping us find the location. They came and met us and drive us right up to the property and gave us a great tour. It’s so cute and I would go back in a heartbeat. We were even given a lovely welcome pack of wine, oil, coffee pods and treats. The picture don’t highlight how cute it is. Would highly recommend and definitely return. Thank you so much.

The photographers house was nothing short of an exceptional stay. The property surpassed expectations and is more impressive in person than in the photos, the interior design and photography are beautiful. It is very spacious and well equipped with everything you might need for a great holiday. The location is 10/10, in the heart of the old town and the views of the port are superb. Fabrizio was very friendly and so helpful, he met us at the train station on arrival and assisted us with our luggage. Similarly, he helped us with our luggage upon departure and dropped our suitcases to the train station by car. He also assisted us with booking taxis etc during our stay. Check in was brilliant, with a comprehensive bar, brilliant coffee machine and all of the basic ingredients for cooking included. We loved our stay, and would recommend the photographers house for anyone looking for an elevated Monopoli experience. We will definitely be back.

The apartment is really beautiful, and the town of Carovigno is gorgeous. Rosa Maria was really easy to communicate with and very kindly let us check in early. A great stay!

Dario is a very helpful and generous person, a welcome like being at home, among beautiful kittens, nature, good things from the garden and fresh eggs for breakfast. Quiet and well-kept accommodation with attention to the smallest details, a stone's throw from the beautiful town of Martina Franca. I'll be happy to come back, long live the Itria Valley!
