An illustration of a guest book

Villa del Faro was the perfect setting for our family and friends. The setting, the interior, the staff, and the Local Specialist were all exceptional. We would definitely love to come back. This is my 4th time using The Thinking Traveller and I do not like booking with any other villa service.

MG August 2024

What stood out for us about Villa del Faro was the architecture, the spaciousness, the swimming pool, and the views. The house manager was great and sensed our needs in a good way.

We had a wonderful time at Villa del Faro and the entire experience was exceptional. The villa was beautiful and exceeded our expectations (which were pretty high). We appreciated being within walking distance of the town, Santa Maria di Leuca.

Villa del Faro was a high quality property with spacious and well designed accommodation. I was pleased that the pool area was child friendly with safety enclosure and a mini pool for small children.
