Karen & Michael - Villa Perego (October 2021)
Experience true tranquillity at one of Relax Puglia’s ‘Home for Holidays’ in the southernmost region of Italy. Puglia has attracted engaged couples and honeymooners for many centuries, due to its stunning landscapes, pristine coastline, sleepy hilltop towns and slow pace of life. The region has the sensation that time has stood still, and that’s all you could wish for during your holiday with close friends and family.
Relax Puglia provides a range of additional services to make your stay more relaxed, comfortable and enjoyable. On your arrival, we can arrange for a food basket to be waiting for you together with a selection of local wines. Why not spoil yourselves with your own, in-house local chef, or a luxurious massage in the comfort of your villa. We have a wide range of tours and activities to choose from and we can provide transfers and taxis to help you get around.
The Dolce Vita is from coast to coast; from the Adriatic to the Ionian, between Otranto and Gallipoli. If you wish to discover the key to local artisan excellence, include a stopover in one or more of the hamlets and villages that trip along the coastline, topple on the summits of hilltops or make a splash in to the small bays and lagoons.
A selection of articles that explore the region of Puglia: its wonderful countryside and coastline, its rich history, its fascinating culture, its delicious food and wine and, of course, its warm and welcoming people...

The trulli come from a long line of succession but have stayed in the hands of the Semeraro Family, rejuvenating the trulli over the years with modern advantages and accessories whilst maintaining its originality.
The trulli bestow one of the grandest and most impressive swimming pools in our line of holiday homes. Furnished for comfort, relaxation and self-absorption!
Couples, small groups or families of all dimensions welcome. Enjoyment guaranteed for all lovers of nature, social and historical culture, pugliese food and wine.
The Indoors

Three doubles, well furnished with traditionally built in units for wardrobes and ample space for your clothes and accessories. A fourth bedroom ideal for children with three single beds and an annexe offset but connected to the fourth bedroom to accommodate a single bed. There are two family bathrooms, both with ample shower. If serving cocktails for family and friends is your idea of relaxation and fun, then the bar will come as pleasant source of entertainment. The property is elegantly furnished throughout. A hamper personally selected by the owners awaits your arrival.
The Outdoors
