Inside Villa Mandorlo Montalbano Ostuni
Step through the entrance and you are greeted by a generous open-plan living area flooded with natural light.

On the ground floor, the first bedroom spans approximately 30 square metres and can be accessed from the garden or from within the property, offering flexibility for guests who prefer a more independent arrangement. Upstairs, two additional bedrooms provide serene retreats, each thoughtfully decorated with quality linens, soft lighting, and characterful details.

A washing machine is discreetly housed in a utility area, and air conditioning is installed throughout the villa for complete comfort during Puglia’s warm summers.
