Puglia villas for large groups and reunions
The size of a masseria makes sense only when it is full. These estates were built around courtyards for farmers, families and seasonal workers, and today the same layout gives a large party space to scatter by day and gather by evening. A reunion here tends to revolve around the table, the pool and the long southern twilight.
All 26 villas below have six bedrooms or more. Among them are a masseria near Lecce whose ancient olive mill now holds a spa beside the original millstone, a Salento masseria near Porto Cesareo with a 32 m pool and a full kitchen brigade, and a masseria of trulli and stone lamie outside Ostuni, hung with the owner's contemporary art.

Questions before you choose
How many people can these villas sleep?
Every villa here has six bedrooms or more, and the largest has 14. Owners set a maximum number of guests and extra beds are not always possible, so tell us your exact party when you enquire.
Can the group celebrate a birthday or anniversary?
A dinner for the house party is usually welcome. Parties with outside guests, music or caterers need the owner's agreement, and some houses do not allow events; we check before you book.
How do we enquire for a large party?
Choose up to five villas and send a single request with dates and numbers. You will hear from us within one working day. In July and August most rent Saturday to Saturday; pools are usually open from May to October.
