DETAILS & AMENITIES

Nestled amidst the rolling hills of Monopoli in southern Italy’s Apulia region, where ancient olive trees stand sentinel, Casa Aragonesi welcomes you to a world of unparalleled elegance and serenity. This elegant property, perched high on the hillside, offers breathtaking vistas of the shimmering Adriatic Sea, creating an idyllic backdrop for your Italian escape.

Casa Aragonesi is the culmination of meticulous restoration work guided by sustainability and energy efficiency principles. This once humble farmer’s house has been transformed into an exclusive retreat, where you can immerse yourself in the art of slow living. With five bedrooms, including a traditional Trulli, the spacious home comfortably accommodates up to 10 guests. Each of the five spacious bedrooms is bathed in natural light and offers private access to lush external gardens, as well as en-suite bathrooms equipped with the utmost attention to detail. The interiors strike a harmonious balance between comfort, contemporary design and Apulian tradition, proudly showcasing a natural colour palette, soft furnishings and Mediterranean elements for an absolute comfort and tranquility.

Guests can relax in the elegant living room with its large off-white couch, modern fireplace, and Smart TV. The dining room, with a beautiful concrete table for ten, provides a captivating view of the gardens and the azure Adriatic beyond. Adjacent to the dining room, a bohemian-chic kitchen, fully equipped with modern conveniences, seamlessly connects indoor and outdoor dining spaces.

Step outside to the estate’s natural wonderland, where ancient olive trees and a private forest invite you to meditate and unwind. Wander through fragrant gardens adorned with aromatic plants and fruit trees and find the perfect spot for a picnic on a sunny day. Seasonal organic fruits can be plucked at your leisure, all while gazing upon the picturesque hills and the boundless sea on the horizon. The crowning jewel of the property is the dazzling white swimming pool on the terrace, a true oasis for relaxation.

For a truly unique experience, the property includes an ancient Trulli, a symbol of the Itria Valley’s heritage. Lovingly restored by Apulian stonemasons, each cone houses a bedroom, private bathroom, a cosy living room with a fireplace, and a secluded courtyard with a dining table and barbecue.

When it’s time to explore, you’ll be pleased to find the beauty of Monopoli right at your doorstep. In just 10 minutes by car, you can stroll through its cobblestone streets and visit the imposing fortress Castello Carlo V, as well as admire the limestone cliffs from one of the nearby beaches.

Location:

Nestled in a harmonious location surrounded by nature and perched on a hillside, Casa Aragonesi represents the kind of retreat you’ll be dreaming about long after you holiday is over.

Puglia’s popularity with holidaymakers extends to much more than warm sunshine, Mediterranean landscapes and mouth-watering cuisine and staying in Casa Aragonesi allows you to effortlessly explore this region’s famous white towns, which gleam from hilltops throughout the Valle d’Itria. 

Begin your adventure in Alberobello, a UNESCO World Heritage site celebrated for its iconic Trulli houses. Wander through Rione Monti, where these cone-shaped dwellings form a fairytale landscape and don’t miss Trullo Sovrano, the only two-story Trullo. Here you can immerse yourself in the unique history and culture of these whimsical structures.

Monopoli’s picturesque coastline beckons with crystal-clear waters and a charming old port – plus it’s just a 10-minute drive away. Spend leisurely days on sandy beaches or explore the historic center’s quaint streets where you can soak up vitamin D and grab a delicious gelato. When you’re in need, there’s also a large supermarket here and a couple of grocery and local shops for your convenience. The closest restaurant can be reached in comfortable 20 minutes by foot, with a road snaking through fields and vineyards. 

For those looking for the hustle and bustle, Bari combines coastal elegance with timeless allure. Stroll along the seafront promenade to admire the Adriatic’s glistening waters and explore the historic Old Town (Bari Vecchia), home to the Basilica di San Nicola and the captivating Swabian Castle. In the height of summer, there are plenty of street festivals happening all around, allowing you to sample local street food delights, like focaccia and orecchiette pasta, at bustling markets.

Nearby, Polignano a Mare enchants with its clifftop charm. Wander the historic center’s narrow streets, savoring breathtaking sea views, relax on pebble beaches and visit the mesmerising (and Instagram famous) seaside cave restaurant that is nothing short of enchanting.

If you’re still hungry for more exploring, conclude your journey in Brindisi, a city steeped in maritime history. Explore ancient Roman columns along the seafront promenade and visit the magnificent Cathedral of Brindisi completed in 1143 and decorated with a fascinating light display at night. Only a 1-hour drive away, this busy city is a getaway to Albania and Greece, with ferries leaving from its only port.

In Puglia, you’ll discover a rich tapestry of history, culture, and natural beauty. Whether you’re wandering the Trulli-lined streets of Alberobello, basking on Monopoli’s sandy shores, or savouring fresh seafood in Bari, every moment is an invitation to savour the essence of Italy’s southern jewel. Your journey through these enchanting destinations promises cherished memories and a deep appreciation for Puglia’s timeless elegance.
