You will immerse yourself in a corner of paradise where you will smell the scents of the Mediterranean and listen to seagulls and cicadas interrupted only by the sound of the waves. This villa is located in an exclusive and unique estate consisting of several villas and trulli, separated from each other by a pinewood forest. It is known as "La Palombara" and was popular with VIPs in the seventies and eighties. At the end of 2019 we rediscovered this heavenly place and we chose to upgrade and redesign parts of it. It is now available for guests that are looking for a hideaway from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. In the photo gallery you will find a map of the entire grounds. A path that leads directly to the sea, starts right below the two panoramic terraces of this villa. On your way to the sea, you will pass some picnic areas with breathtaking views. Once on the rocky beach, you will find four access points for swimming, diving, snorkeling or fishing in the crystal clear water of the Lower Adriatic Sea. Dolphins have been spotted from the picnic areas. (Caution: the path and access to the sea is not suitable for small children or people with disabilities).The villa is on two levels: two double bedrooms (one with a double bed, the other one with twin beds), each with a private bathroom, kitchen and a large living room on the upper floor; on the lower floor, a double bedroom, another living area with two single beds and a bathroom. The interior design is simple but functional; there is no TV nor air conditioning, but the thick walls and pine trees mitigate the heat of the summer sun. The house can be heated in the colder season; a fast, reliable and unlimited wifi connection (included in the price) is available. Both floors have their own partly shaded terraces, with wonderful views and maximum privacy. A rooftop terrace, a barbecue and an outdoor shower complete the picture. The well-known fortified village of Castro, with its bars, cafes, restaurants and a supermarket, can be reached on foot in just ten minutes. The walk is along a charming path under the ancient Messapian walls. For those who prefer sandy beaches to rocks, the enchanting sandy beach of Porto Miggiano is 5 km away; very charming are also the coves of Porto Badisco and the long sandy beaches of Alimini, north of Otranto. Sheets, duvets and towels are not included. If you don't want to bring them with you from home, regardless of the length of your stay, you can rent them for €26 per person. Final cleaning is not included and costs €140, unless you clean yourselves before departure. Dogs and pets are welcome, if you inform us in advance! Surcharge: €150 for the 1st one, €75 each for the others. Usually max 1 large or 2 small ones are allowed, but exceptions might be possible upon request. We will ask you to pay a security deposit of €600 before arrival. The security deposit will be refunded within 7 days after departure, if there is no damage. Electricity costs (and thus where applicable AC, hot water, heating etc.) are NOT included in the price and will be charged based on your actual consumption. The price per kWh charged to guests was €0,42 on 06/01/2026, when this text was last updated. Prices may slightly change over time. Feel free to reach out and we will be happy to share the average electricity consumption data for the season you're interested in. ABOUT US We're a team of holiday enthusiasts with diverse backgrounds based between Italy and Switzerland. Our mission is to find the most unique holiday homes, refurbish them and make them available to people like you, who want to live the authentic Italian experience at a high (Swiss!) quality, without spending a fortune By booking this accommodation, you accept that: We are obliged by law to verify the identity of all our guests. We will therefore ask you to upload copies of your IDs on our (secure) website to verify your identity before handing out the key code for the accommodation. Your personal data is treated in full compliance with EU data protection laws. Also, we are obliged to sign a rental agreement with our guests (one person per group). This will be done digitally and requires just a few seconds on your side. You can find a template of the rental agreement on our website. Parties, gatherings, events or loud music are not allowed at this property unless explicitly authorised beforehand by us in writing. In case the local municipality charges a tourist tax, we will ask you to pay this separately to us and we will transfer it to the local authorities as required by law. Please note that, like for all houses in Italy, the power allowance of the house is limited and you might not be able to always use all electric appliances simultaneously. No need to worry: most guests don't even notice this limitation. Unlimited wifi is included in the price for normal use. Fair use policies might apply. Please note that we cannot guarantee any specific connection speed nor coverage across all rooms in the building. We're happy to provide more details upon request. ## Property amenities ### Beach - Beach nearby ### Internet - Available in the villa: Free WiFi ### Kitchen - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Dishwasher -

La ville de Castro et Castro Marina sont à quelques minutes à pied, les ados peuvent être en totale autonomie. ##### Jean-Pierre S. Stayed 18 nights in Jul 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Maike D. Nov 15, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Einmalige Lage Wir haben es sehr genossen. Das Inventar ist in die Jahre gekommen aber die Lage und der Blick aufs Meer ersetzen dies um ein vielfaches. Wenn das Meer ruhig ist, ist der Einstieg ins Meer sehr gut zu machen. Wir haben am letzten Abend tatsächlich auch noch Delfine gesehen. castro und Castro Marina sind zooöe Orte! ##### Maike D.

Im Haus ist zwar alles, (ausser einem Föhn)! vorhanden, aber die Möbel sind unbequem und verlebt. Der Tisch im Aussenbereich ist morsch, mit einem Plastiktischtuch bedeckt und voller Ameisen. Die Badezimmer stammen aus den 70ger Jahren und sind renovationsbedürftig, die Wasserhähnen tropfen alle und die WC Spülungen funktionieren partiell. ##### Adelheid Maria This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent Oct 24, 2024 #### Elisabeth (Airbnb) Die Anlage ist traumhaft gelegen. Großzügig ruhig romantisch. Zu Fuß in den Ort und zum Hafen gehen. Die Betreuung durch Olivier u. a. war sehr bemüht. acht Leute in 2 großen Häusern - haben den Aufenthalt genossen. Es ist sehr schön, dass solche Quartiere wie „Perlen“ abseits des Mainstreams erhalten werden. This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 8/10 Good Oct 24, 2024 #### Nerses (Airbnb) Tolle Location. Ansonsten genau so, wie man es sich vorstellt. Kommunikation über Messanger klappt super und es wird immer eine Lösung gesucht und gefunden! Freuen uns auf nächstes Jahr! This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent Oct 24, 2024 #### Daniela (Airbnb) Casa A si trova immersa nella natura, con un affaccio sul mare a dir poco spettacolare! Fare colazione e cenare sulla terrazza panoramica è il vero plus di questo alloggio, così come la comodissima doccia esterna e la possibilità di tuffarsi dalla caletta privata alla quale si accede attraverso un breve sentiero. L’interno dell’abitazione risulta molto funzionale e spazioso. Siamo stati benissimo e ci sentiamo di consigliare vivamente questa casa. ### 8/10 Good #### Bettina K.
