grande bellezza

For all those looking to rent a large vacation villa in Puglia between the coast and the Valle d’Itria, Grande Bellezza is the place to be.
This luxury 11-bedroom exclusive property with a large private swimming pool is also the ideal venue for weddings or for the celebration of other special and memorable events.
With its ten bedrooms with en suite bathrooms, extensive outdoor space for up to 150 guests, and a wide majestic dining hall for up to 60 guests, Grande Bellezza truly is the perfect spot for your D-day. Polignano a Mare is the nearest town; a quaint seaside town famous for its white pebble beach that is framed by cliffs.
This prestigious villa is surrounded by a twenty-hectare estate with a plantation of over 2400 olive trees. Olive trees can be found anywhere in Puglia; its warm climate and fertile soil make it the ideal place for farming, which is why it is now home to hundreds of olive trees dating back as far as 3,000 years.
The large villa comprises a main house with six bedrooms, including one master bedroom located on the top floor of the main villa featuring a private terrace with sweeping views and a heated Jacuzzi as well as four separate guest houses.
One of the standard bedrooms situated on the first floor of the main villa is smaller than the others but equally cosy and comfortable.
Adjacent to it, there is a welcoming living room with a fireplace where you can relax, perhaps with a good book. The five guest houses host one bedroom each and have their own private furnished garden, one also features a private outdoor heated Jacuzzi. All bedrooms are equipped with Simmons mattresses, air conditioning, satellite TV, reliable WI-FI connection, safe, minibar and bathroom courtesy set.
All spaces feature decorations and elements which convey the story of the region blending in perfectly with modern elements as well as recalling the tailoring expertise of the owner's family, well known in the Italian fashion industry.
Outside, the villa boasts Italian gardens and a lovely swimming pool area, built in the local white stone with a paddling area for children and waterfalls.
In the extensive outdoor grounds, it is possible to indulge in delectable alfresco meals in several spots of the lovely garden and enjoy a view of the surrounding area, washed by the sweet sounds of the Apulian countryside.
Staying in the garden is ideal for a pleasant breakfast surrounded by nature’s fragrances or for relaxing during long summer afternoons. While experiencing a relaxed holiday at Grande Bellezza, touring around the Valle d’Itria is also a must, a visit to Alberobello is not to be missed, only about half an hour from the villa. The so-called “white town” of Ostuni, also worth a visit, is at fifty kilometres.
