vinca

Vinca is a luxury villa available for weekly rental in the heart of Salento, Puglia. Nestled between the Baroque elegance of Lecce and the turquoise Ionian Sea, this centuries-old Apulian Masseria for rent in Italy has been meticulously restored to balance historic preservation with contemporary luxury. Pale local limestone, soaring ceilings, and elegant arched windows fill the interiors with natural light, creating a serene, airy atmosphere. Set within a spacious private park, the masseria offers privacy and simple beauty.
The residence centers around an expansive private courtyard, a sanctuary of stone terraces, Mediterranean gardens, and a sparkling swimming pool designed for both refined entertaining and deep relaxation. The property accommodates up to fourteen guests in seven beautifully appointed double bedrooms. Three fully equipped kitchens and large indoor and outdoor dining areas provide the perfect setting for leisurely breakfasts, alfresco lunches, catered dinners, or cooking with family and friends.
Vinca is perfectly situated for exploring the best of Salento. The historic gems of Lecce, Nardò, Galatina, and Gallipoli are all within easy reach, while some of Apulia’s most beautiful beaches, including Santa Maria al Bagno, Baia Verde, and Gallipoli, are just a 15-minute drive away.
