Private pool villas in Puglia, masserie and cliffs

The Apulian summer is hot and dry, and although the sea is never far, many guests find that the pool becomes the true centre of the house. It is where the day begins with a swim before the heat, where lunch drifts into the afternoon, and where the pale stone of the masseria glows at dusk. Pools here take every form, from long lanes to sheltered courtyards.

All 71 villas below have a private pool. They include a masseria near Savelletri with a 200 m² heated pool among centuries old olive groves, an architect designed house in Gagliano del Capo with a courtyard pool, and a masseria near Gallipoli with a terrace Jacuzzi above the pool.
