Vacation rentals near Underground Museum

This property is beautifully designed and very comfortable for 3 couples. The layout of the buildings and landscaping ensure complete privacy. The "backyard" area with a pool and eating area is fabulous. We used the forno oven to cook pizza 3 nights and it was a great experience. The property is very well supplied with everything you need for a comfortable stay.You will need your own transportation here as it is off the beaten track. We had rented road bikes for some riding to Monopoli and Marta Franca and the first part of the road riding is tough with bumpy dirt roads and then a narrow highway.The owner, Will, is an amazing communicator and kept in close touch throughout our stay. His warm hospitality enhanced the trip for us all.

This, by far, was the most wonderful oasis we found on our trip to Italy. Conveniently located just outside of beautiful Ostini, Mina and her family have created a welcoming and wonderfully decorated and stocked place to put your feet up and enjoy. It was extremely private, with a pool set only for the guests renting the two separate suites, (we had family joining us and it was amazing to be able to offer them their own private space, also fully equipped). The accommodations included everything from outside bbque equipment, to board games, swimming floats (if you have children), clothes washing machine, and absolutely everything you would need to cook meals if so desired. By far, the best part of our stay was the relaxing atmosphere and the hospitality of our hosts. We would return in a heartbeat!! Thank you !

Our stay was exceptional. The host went of their way to ensure we had information about the area with suggestions on places to go, how to get there and options for dining and shopping. Communication was outstanding. We were greeted on arrival. The villa was beautiful. It was beyond our expectations. The property was updated, decorated tastefully, well maintained and squeaky clean. There were so many thoughtful details such as extra towels, candles, wine, cheese, munchies, the list is endless including delicious cakes for birthday celebrations. The villa was in an olive grove and among almond, fig, pomegranate and a variety of citrus trees. It had an herb garden and a variety of interesting plants. Every room had its own unique charm. We enjoyed the peace, quiet and safe environment. It was a short drive into Ostuni, neighbouring villages and markets and a perfect base for touring Puglia. Thank you again for the wonderful experience. It was beyond our expectations and we loved it!

This charming apartment with a lovely rooftop terrace was a perfect home for us in Ostuni. From here we could explore the Adriatic coast and the inland towns of Alberobello, Locorotondo, etc. The host Silvano welcomed us warmly and even saved a parking spot for us, mere steps from the apartment. We appreciated the delicious sweets and fruit that awaited us. Throughout our stay Silvano was at our disposal should we have questions or need anything. The apartment is well furnished in a charming manner. Kitchen is well equipped and everything is spotlessly clean. The terrace is a lovely place to sip a glass of wine before or after going out for dinner. When we left, Silvano bid us goodbye in person. We felt that we were saying goodbye to an old fried.

We stayed in this beautiful Trulli from May 6-12, 2023. The owner was very responsive and provided lots of details prior to our stay on the local area, restaurants, sight seeing, etc. The property manager was also very easy to communicate with and was in touch with us via WhatsApp to arrange meeting us at the house for check in and check out. The property itself is stunning and exactly as advertised - lots of flowers and fruit trees. etc. We enjoyed eating alfresco under the ancient olive tree. The one issue that we had, that unfortunately left us very disappointed is around the electricity and the pool. Firstly - the owner will ask for a security deposit that is not identified in the listing and will tell you that the listing only includes 75Euro towards electricity for a week. We were surprised but felt that this should be sufficient for our group of 4 adults. They will take meter readings on arrival and departure and calculate your use. At the end of the week we were told that we had exceeded the electricity by over 200Euro. Needless to say we were shocked and very upset. We didn't leave lights on, didn't run the pool heater or hot tub, and only spent time in the Trulli in the evenings where we sat in the kitchen playing cards - no TV, computers, or anything else that would account for the electricity being so high. We later received an apology from the property manager indicating that she had miscalculated and we didn't owe any extra. I understand that mistakes happen, but feel that when we questioned the charge she should have rechecked the numbers rather than accusing us of misusing the electricity. In hand with the electricity, and something we have never experienced before - we were shown how to turn on the hot water heater and told that we should turn it on only when we need to shower - and that it takes an hour for the water to heat up. At over $500 a night I don't feel it is unreasonable to expect to have hot water on demand. Final issue is the pool. This property is marketed as having a HEATED pool, which is the main reason we chose it over others in the area. With the electricity limitations running the pool heater would have cost us a considerable amount. When we argued that the owner did agree to waive the fee. Unfortunately the guests before us had not reported that the pump wasn't working, and did not have the heater on so it would have taken 3-4 days to heat the pool before we could use it.

Was quite unusual, the main place and across from that was the bedroom in a truilli.
