Read the insightful reviews from travellers who have experienced this villa and our service firsthand.
This was our second stay at Palazzo Colucci and it was wonderful. I was impressed that the owner continues to upgrade the property (new refrigerator and renovated steps to get to the pool area). What stands out about the property is the proximity to many towns and the water, the private pool and courtyard, and its location in a town so you can walk for a coffee or dinner.

Palazzo Colucci was so old and beautifully restored. Would we return? Yes, it was so beautiful and we loved the pool area.

We absolutely loved the old world charm of Palazzo Colucci - the original decorations and feeling of truly owning for a week, a gorgeous palazzo in Puglia. It was like stepping back in time but with the most comfortable beds ever! The gardens and infinity pool were amazing with a cool breeze blowing through which made it perfect!

Palazzo Colucci was absolutely beautiful and beyond our expectations. It's a fabulous villa in a quaint medieval village and it had everything our group of 4 adults and 4 children needed.
Theresa Evans September 2024
The garden at Palazzo Colucci with the beautiful infinity pool was delightful. It was a little oasis in the middle of a quiet town. The Palazzo was spacious and the architecture and paintings in the amazing vaulted ceilings made us feel as if we were staying in a home that was once grand. The spaciousness of the palazzo was wonderful. The bedrooms were large with bathrooms attached and accommodated three families nicely. The lovely views from the terrace were enjoyable with a cup of coffee or a glass of wine! Lastly, the spaciousness of the living room was excellent for 6 adults, a toddler and two infants to be in all together.

What a wonderful house Palazzo Colucci is! We couldn't believe we could live there for a week!
