The Area

Villa Blanca is located about 2km above Santa Maria di Leuca at the southernmost tip of the Salento peninsular, where the Ionian and Adriatic seas meet. The town has long been a magnet for the wealthy classes in Puglia, who came to build lavish seaside homes here in the early 20th century. The legacy of this is a superb collection of Liberty-style buildings, plenty of restaurants, bars, shops and gelaterie, a beach, and a large marina. Guest staying at Villa Blanca can walk into town, though there is quite a steep climb back and sections of the road are without pavement.

There are many fabulous sandy beaches, coves and grottos to explore within a 10-minute drive of Leuca. These can be even better visited from the water, and it is easy to arrange boat or yacht rentals in the marina.

Within easy driving distance is delightful Baroque Lecce, the fortified island town of Gallipoli and lovely Otranto.

An illustration of a guest book

Villa Blanca is a beautiful, relaxing site with stunning views and a cool vibe! What stood out was =the ability to be together - or find a more quiet space - all in one site. The housekeeper prepared awesome meals for communal dining al fresco!

Morena Cohan September 2024

Villa Blanca is a wonderful villa! The housekeeper was wonderful and a great cook and she and the other staff went above and beyond. We had a wonderful and stress-free holiday thanks to The Thinking Traveller.
