Antonio was incredibly kind and helpful with our check in. The house was the perfect size and a great space to be together. The pool is a lovely size to relax by and swim in when back from sight seeing. Altogether a great place to enjoy a holiday.

Great villa!
Beautiful setting, so peaceful.
Everything in the villa that you need, home from home.
Away from it all. Closest town for a couple of great little shops is only 5 minutes drive, next closest town 10mins with some lovely traditional restaurants.
Ostuni only about 20mins by car well worth visiting.
All in all a great holiday xx

Lovely family villa with big pool
Josephine's villa is just as described, lovely but without being so posh that you daren't touch anything! Her maintenance manager Antonio was very pleasant and helpful making checking in and out very smooth. The exterior of the villa is particularly nice with the lovely big pool being a great bonus. We liked it's slight remoteness because it was so peaceful.
Josephine was a really considerate owner who communicated really helpfully with extra tips about how to get the best from the area.

Perfect stay to see bootheel of Italy
This property is a gem if you want to make day trips to see parts of southern Italy. Or just to enjoy sitting on lovely terrace overlooking the Adriatic and a beautiful swimming pool. It was pefect for the 2 of us but could accommodate another couple or two. Kitchen had everything needed to cook for ourselves. Good shopping nearby for groceries and wine. Many places to visit and games to play at the villa. We found ripe persimmons which were delightful. The host is responsive and generous sharing knowledge of the area. Highly recommended!

Spectacular villa!
We had an amazing stay at this incredible villa! The setting is incredibly picturesque with views of the sea and surrounding olive groves. The pool is gorgeous and the house itself is extremely comfortable and well-equipped. We particularly appreciated the shady patio/terrace area and the air-conditioning throughout. And the kitchen was stocked with lots of cutlery, crockery etc. We enjoyed every minute of our stay here and were very sad to leave. Highly recommended.

Lovely villa in secluded location with big pool and great amenities - table tennis and boules court
We had a fantastic time - there for 2 weeks with 3 late teens and us, so made lots of use of the pool and table tennis and they could play their music without disturbing any neighbours! The three bathrooms were also a positive, although the shower in one is very small (for a 6ft 2" 20 year old!).
Plenty of family room in the open plan sitting/dining/kitchen area and comfortable seating and dining on the terrace. Well appointed kitchen with all you need to be able to cook/serve family meals as well as both charcoal and gas BBQs outside.
The fold up beach beds were great to take to the beach and a real plus point.
Although the villa is secluded, it has easy access to main roads which quickly get you out into the Puglia region where there is plenty to see and do.
Would happily stay again!

Lovely Holiday with friends
The property is in a superb location with amazing views over the pool and olive groves down towards the sparkling Mediterranean Sea !
Lots of places to relax either round the pool or on the shady veranda’s , which was very welcome as we had exceptionally hot weather for early June ! Villa was very comfortable too !
Josephine is a very helpful owner and sorted any hiccups we may of had quickly through a very friendly Antonio who looks after the property for her ! Specchiolla is very convenient for a small but well stocked supermarket and bakeries too , we frequently visited a family bakery called “Dolce & Salato “ which has very helpful and friendly owner and staff too , bread and focaccia is delicious !
We all had a lovely time thank you !

Great stay
We really enjoyed our two-week stay at Villa Diomedes. The location is slightly rural, but there are several towns within a short driving distance so this was not an issue. The Familia Superstore in San Vito is 6 km down the road and features specialty departments for meat, cheese and seafood, and we also enjoyed the well-stocked kitchen for home cooking.
The main attraction (beyond the well-appointed 3 bed/3 bath villa itself) is clearly the large pool and terraces with a view of the Adriatic. The natural reserve and beaches of Torre Guaceto is about 15 minutes away by bike and highly recommended - we were please to find three bikes in the cellar, since the best beaches are very difficult to reach by other means. Take the route via Contrada Bufaleria and SP 37, which is the safest! You don't want to be on SP 35 on a bike...
Amongst other drive-to attractions in the region we would highlight Ostuni (15 minutes), Lecce, Alberobello and Polignano a Mare (all 40 mins) and Matera (1H 45 mins) as the most interesting, but this is clearly a matter of taste.
Planning, check-in and communication with the owners and caretaker was easy, friendly and super responsive and definitely in the top league of VRBO!
We highly recommend this.

Ein sehr schöner Urlaub
Die Villa Diomedes ist ein wirklich schönes und gut ausgestattetes Ferienhaus. Es entspricht voll der Beschreibung bei fewo-direkt. Wir haben unseren Aufenthalt dort sehr genossen.
Für den Strandaufenthalt empfiehlt sich der Strand im Naturschutzgebiet Torre Guaceto. In der Umgebung gibt es viele schöne Orte zu besichtigen, z.B. Carovigno, Oria, Ceglie Messapica und natürlich Ostuni (allerdings recht touristisch) sowie die schöne Barockstadt Lecce.
Ansonsten lässt es sich wunderbar an dem tollen, großen Pool entspannen.
Vielen Dank für den schönen Aufenthalt!

Wonderful Villa
The villa is wonderful in a very quiet area with large swimming pool but not so far from beaches and cities centre (Ostuni for example).
Local beaches are all different and few minutes by car !
It’s a perfect location for a family or group of friends (3 bedroom, 3 bathroom).
Thanks also to Antonio and Silvana for the welcome and assistance if needed!
Definitely a place to go!

Bellissima vacanza!
La villa è davvero splendida! Ancora più bella che in foto. Ricca di ogni comfort, con dettagli curati e attrezzatura completa per ogni esigenza. Purtroppo la connessione a internet era assente per quasi tutta la giornata. Consigliamo, se i proprietari desiderano continuare ad affittare la casa anche agli Italiani, di tradurre tutte le istruzioni (attualmente solo in inglese) e di fare in modo di poter vedere anche altri canali televisivi oltre alla BBC.

Vacanze rilassanti
Trascorso un bella vacanza con amici in questa deliziosa villetta in mezzo agli ulivi in una zona tranquilla ma a pochi chilometri di macchina da servizi e spiagge. La piscina, pulita e ben tenuta, consente un bagno rilassante a sera quando si torna dalle belle escursioni che offre la Puglia. Ogni camera dotata di bagno. Casa molto ben attrezzata. Silvana e Antonio, che ti accolgono, molto gentili e attentissimi alle esigenze degli ospiti. Mi sento di consigliarla senza riserve.
Un solo piccolo suggerimento alla proprietaria: per la clientela italiana è opportuno che si vedano i canali TV italiani e non solo la BBC.
Un appunto a VRBO: per correttezza avvertire che il pagamento in sterline comporta delle commissioni di cambio (sia pure molto contenute).

オーナーについて
オーナー : Josephine Hale
My husband and I have loved Italy all our lives and when the opportunity came up we looked for a property that we would love to own in this country. Puglia was an untried area for us, so we took a trip with my husbands sister and her partner to explore this part of Italy. What we discovered was a lovely rural countyside, with a gentler pace of life and warm and generous people. After looking at several properties we were taken to this lovely site by a good agent, who we now happily call a friend! We fell in love with it and decided to have our villa built as close to our specification as the laws in Italy allow.. Since embarking on this adventure I have retired from my busy job as the Head of a Procurement Department in the NHS and am now catching up on millions of tasks at home that have waited too long! My most favourite past-time is painting. I studied art at the Cambridge School of Art for 4 years and have taught Calligraphy at the West Suffolk College since 1990. Now most of my paintings are of Italy! My husband retired in 2016 and now we both but look forward to our trips to the villa in spring and autumn. We manage two trips each year but spend most our our time doing the garden or working in the villa to make it more attractive and comfortable for us and our guests. We manage the bookings ourselves but have employed an Italian couple who live close by the villa to organise the cleaning, gardening, pool and maintenance and the welcoming for our guests.
この宿泊施設のオーナーになった理由
Because the plot has wonderful elevated views of the sea, it is quiet, and in a rural location and the prettiness of its position among the olive trees, captivated us. In the spring the ground under the trees is covered with wonderful wild flowers and the sound of bird song fills the air. It is truly a magical place. We also designed the villa to our own specifications within the rules and regulations of Italian law, so it is ideal for a family to stay in. Many of our guests have said they prefer to stay in the villa instead of going to the beach as the pool is great, and the surroundings are extremely relaxing. We began planting our cacti garden in 2015 which we positioned down the steep bank on the right hand side of the pool which is fenced off by the edge of the pool patio. It was hard work digging and planting on the slope as we struggled to stop ourselves sliding down but with the aid of some large rocks placed strategically down the slope by our agent Antonio, we managed to plant a number of interesting and colourful specimens. Some of the rocks were flat so that they can be used as stepping stones making it easier to weed the plot.It seems to be flourishing and we will add to it every year until it is complete. We hope you will enjoy it.
この宿泊施設の特徴
It is very close to Brindisi Airport, just 20 minutes drive away and also only about an hour away from Bari Airport. It is close to the beach and to many nice coastal restaurants; it has lots of historically interesting towns. The most captivating sight are the many little trulli's that pepper the countryside. These little dwellings are now incorporated into many homes owned by Italians and other nationalities who love this part of Italy. We love the tranquility of the area, its unique beauty has enthralled us, along with the lovely weather and the friendly people. You can't fail to love it once you have visited it!
