We loved our stay at Valeria's place. The home was spacious and the pool and terrace were our own oasis. It is well situated to visit the main sites in Puglia. Valeria was an excellent host. Very responsive and helpful. The town of Oatuni is super cute. A great spot! Thanks for a lovely stay!

Just back from a fabulous 11 days at Villa Rai as two couples. The property is stunning…better than the pictures. One of the most “Home from Home” properties we have stayed in. I couldn’t think of anything we needed that wasn’t available in the property. Valeria’s communication and advice was extremely helpful and always immediate. She also left some great food and drink which was very welcome for our arrival late in the evening. The property is down some tight lanes but you get used to them and it is only a few minutes drive on the one straight road into Ostuni which is a beautiful town. We travelled extensively to explore as much of Puglia as we could. We had day trip trips to (1) Lecce; (2) Cisternino, Locorotondo & Alborobello; (3) Polignano & Monopoli; (4) Martina Franca & Matera; (5) Ceglie; (6) Otranto & Gallipoli (where we stayed overnight in a B&B). All those towns have beautiful old centres (when you find them!) and great food. Ostuni has some fabulous restaurants too. We particularly enjoyed OperaPrima with its stunning views from the terrace and Ostuni Palace Bistrot in a lovely hotel. We found it easiest to park in the big parking lot at the bottom of town. As it fills up quickly, there’s a couple of overflow car parks just beyond it that charge you 8 but are easy to get in. I strongly recommend this holiday home and Puglia as a great holiday destination. Thank you Valeria for a great stay.

About the host

Hosted by Valeria

Host profile image
Hi, I’m Valeria, and I’m happy to welcome you to Villa Rai. I love nature, peaceful surroundings, good food, and the simple moments that make life beautiful. Villa Rai is my own little escape from the noise and rush of everyday life, and I enjoy sharing that feeling with others. My hope is that while you are here, you can slow down, relax, explore Puglia, and create wonderful memories of your own.

Why they chose this property

I fell in love with the peaceful countryside surrounding Ostuni. Here, you can wake up to birds singing, enjoy the colors and scents of the garden, and feel surrounded by nature, while still being only a short drive from Ostuni, beautiful beaches, restaurants, and some of Puglia’s most charming towns. For me, it offers the perfect balance between tranquility and everything this beautiful region has to offer.

What makes this property unique

Villa Rai is more than a holiday home to me—it is a little piece of paradise. In fact, “Rai” means “heaven” or “paradise” in Romanian, which is exactly how this place feels to me.
Surrounded by nature, the villa offers space to slow down and enjoy the simple things: peaceful mornings, birds singing, flowers blooming, long afternoons by the pool, and beautiful Puglian sunsets. At the same time, Ostuni, the Adriatic coast, and many wonderful towns are within easy reach.
Villa Rai was created to be a place where guests can relax, reconnect, explore, and hopefully leave with beautiful memories—and perhaps feeling a little more at home in Puglia.
