We stayed for 16 nights in this wonderful property with our three adult children and their partners. The villa was large clean and very well stocked with all we needed. The bedrooms were large, airy and very cool with the air conditioning working brilliantly in the hot weather. The outside space was fantastic with lots of shade under the trees, beautiful pool and plenty of sun loungers. All in all a truly memorable and thoroughly enjoyable trip with excellent hosts.

We truly enjoyed our stay at Giulia’s house in Diso. Traveling with two families, a total of eight people, we’ve been exploring Europe together for many years – from Germany to Spain, and Portugal France and Italy. Out of more than 20 beautiful houses we’ve stayed in, Giulia’s was by far the most outstanding.The house is decorated with so much love and taste that we felt as if dear friends had left their home for us. We especially appreciated the layout: the charming garden house with two bedrooms, each with its own small living room and bathroom, created plenty of space and privacy even for a larger group. The kitchen is compact but very well equipped with two large fridges and everything a cook could need – though sharper knives would have been nice.The pool is generous in size, and the rooftop terrace offers a stunning view at sunset. Diso itself was a pleasant surprise: a small town with a supermarket, fruit and vegetable shop, and two cafés – perfect for daily needs. The well equipped Famila supermarket is just 10’ away. Beyond that, Apulia amazed us with its beautiful little towns, wonderful beaches, and authentic charm.A special thanks goes to Giulia, who was always there when we needed advice or recommendations – warm and attentive, just like a good friend hosting us. We had an unforgettable time and will definitely be back.

This is a lovely villa for a family holiday. It’s beautifully decorated with a wonderful pool, gardens and lots of space to relax. We enjoyed strolling into Diso and going to the local shop, pizzeria, cafe and restaurant. Everyone was very friendly and it was a very peaceful place to be.

Great property for our party of 8. Villa was spacious and well appointed. Owners met us at the property on check in and gave us advice on places to visit. Pool was essential for hot summer days with humidity. Parking is street based. Diso is a small, quiet non tourist town. It was a great home base for a local meal or two and morning cappuccino and pastries. Location is near Castro Marina which was a fun location to visit and swim. We spent most time coastally by the water to cool down. Otranto was another lovely city with shopping and delicious food. If you come when it’s cooler in temperature, exploring inland cities is possible.
