Overview

Set on a gentle hillside in the heart of Puglia, Villa Mira is a contemporary retreat surrounded by vineyards and olive groves, with sweeping views across the Itria Valley towards the Adriatic Sea. The whitewashed exterior gives the property a fresh, understated character, while its peaceful rural setting offers privacy and space to unwind. The coast is around 15 minutes away by car, making it easy to combine time relaxing at the villa with days spent exploring the beaches and seaside towns of southern Italy.

Villa Mira accommodates up to eight guests across four king bedrooms, each with its own en-suite bathroom. All four bedrooms are located on the lower floor, with three opening directly onto the garden and featuring en-suite shower rooms. The fourth bedroom has an en-suite bathroom with a bathtub. All bedrooms are air conditioned, providing comfort during the warmer months. The main living floor is designed to make the most of the surrounding views, with large windows bringing natural light into the dining area and framing the Adriatic coastline. A striking black dining table, warm orange chairs and a grand piano add character to the space, while the adjoining sitting room features comfortable sofas, velvet armchairs and a contemporary fireplace. The modern kitchen is equipped with high-end appliances, and a dedicated work area offers a place to sit and work while enjoying the sea view. A second lounge and additional living and dining area on the lower floor, together with a compact kitchen, provide extra flexibility for groups.

Outside, the hillside setting creates a wonderful backdrop for relaxing and dining in the open air. A private swimming pool is surrounded by Mediterranean planting, with shaded seating areas and a pergola providing comfortable places to escape the sun. The poolside bar is ideal for refreshments throughout the day, while the barbecue area and wood-fired pizza oven offer the option of preparing relaxed meals outdoors. Guests looking to stay active can make use of the fully equipped private gym, while the villa’s private spa provides a place to unwind, with a sauna, steam room, hot tub and chromotherapy shower. The swimming pool can also be heated, making it a welcome feature beyond the height of summer.

Villa Mira is well positioned for discovering Puglia’s coastline, countryside and historic towns. The nearest beach is approximately 17 minutes away by car, while the closest serviced town can be reached in around eight minutes. The wider region is known for its whitewashed hilltop towns, traditional trulli houses and excellent local food. Ostuni, with its maze of white streets and historic buildings, is a popular destination, while Alberobello is renowned for its distinctive trulli architecture. The coastal towns and marinas around the Adriatic also offer opportunities to enjoy seafood restaurants and relaxed seaside walks.
