Renovated estate w/ private pool 950m from the sea

Wonderful stone villa, completely renovated in 2021, with a large 40 sqm private swimming pool and private garden, entirely for your exclusive use.
The villa consists of two adjoining units, of which the main body can accommodate up to 5, the annex (in a characteristic trullo) up to 3 people.
In the main building there is a large living room, a well-equipped dining room with kitchen (gas stove, oven, dishwasher, large fridge with freezer, as well as everything you need to prepare your own meals), two double bedrooms (one of which with sea ​​view), two bathrooms with shower (one of which is en-suite in one of the bedrooms, the other accessible from the corridor). There is also a single sofa bed (approx 1.10m wide) in the living room.
The trullo consists of a living room with open kitchen (equipped with gas stove, oven, fridge with freezer) and a gallery in the top floor with double bed and access to the roof top terrace with sea view, as well as a bathroom with shower. There is a single sofa bed in the trullo as well.
The house is equipped with air conditioning with cold and heat function, and mosquito nets. There is a TV in the main unit.
The swimming pool, about 8x5 meters, is brand new (completed in May 2021) and is surrounded by a large terrace with sun loungers and a garden with olive trees.
The property is located in a quiet area of Santa Maria di Leuca, surrounded by greenery and some other villas, 950 meters from the sea (about 10-15 minutes on foot).
The closest beaches are Lido Azzurro (small sandy beach) and Samarinda (rocks). Several bars, restaurants, shops and the promenade are within walking distance. The beaches of the Ionian coast of Salento (including the famous Maldives of Salento) can be reached in about 15 minutes by car. In Leuca it is possible to rent boats, with or without skipper, or book a boat tour to visit the many sea caves in the area.

🛏️ Sheets, duvets and towels are not included. If you don't want to bring them with you from home, regardless of the length of your stay, you can rent them for €20 per person. Beach/pool towels are not provided.
🧽 Final cleaning is not included. If you do not want to clean before departure, we can hire our cleaning company (surcharge: €120).
🐶 Pets are NOT allowed in this property.
💰 We will ask you to pay a security deposit of €600 before arrival. The security deposit will be refunded within 7 days after departure, if there is no damage.
⚡ Electricity costs (and thus where applicable AC, hot water, heating etc.) are NOT included in the price and will be charged based on your actual consumption. The price per kW charged to guests was €0,28 on 31/03/2023, when this text was last updated, but as prices are fluctuating a lot and might hopefully decrease, your actual price per kW will be communicated a few days before your arrival based on the current market price.
We decided not to include electricity costs in the rent in order to: a) keep our rental prices stable compared to 2022, which is an ambitious goal given the 10%+ inflation and b) incentivate our guests to use electricity responsibly, helping us to reach our sustainability goals. Thank you for your understanding.
