Om eerlijk te zijn overtrof de werkelijkheid de foto’s en omschrijving op de site.

Fantastisch huis, zeer mooi ingericht en volledig uitgerust voor een verblijf zonder zorgen. Heel rustgevend, met mooie terrassen. Zeer verzorgd. Mooie streek ook, leuk dat het vlak aan zee ligt. Wij genoten van een week volle zon met heerlijke temperaturen derde week van september. Zeker een aanrader !

Das Wetter war die ganze Woche super mit 30 Grad und Sonne pur und somit konnten wir den Pool und die Nähe zum Meer sehr genießen.

Dit is een super mooi huis. Helemaal compleet ingericht met in iedere ruimte airconditioning. Mooi terras voor het huis, waar zich ook de veilige parkeerplaatsen voor 2 autos bevinden. Aan de achterkant een mooi terras bij een heerlijk zwembad. En super mooi dakterras met eettafel en loungeset met uitzicht op zee, waar het s avonds heerlijk vertoeven is. Prijs kwaliteit verhouding is goed. Het huis ligt op ongeveer 100 meter van de zee met een rotsstrand. In de nabije omgeving lekkere verse vis te koop en goede restaurants. Het is een goede uitvalsbasis voor bezoek aan Bari, Alberobello, Matera e.d. De eigenaresse is zeer vriendelijk en hulpvaardig. Ze is telefonisch goed bereikbaar. Ze reageert heel snel op vragen en doet er alles aan om het haar gasten naar de zin te maken. Dit is een huis waar we graag nog een keer teruggaan!!

A well designed, well maintained and well serviced villa. There are three terraces, one in front of the house where one can sit under a balcony when it rains, one in the back near the pool and one on the roof, very large and very comfortable. The house is luxuriously furnished, al in very good taste. 15 mins driving from lovely Bari with its medieval centre and plenty of dining and shopping opportunities, it makes for an ideal location. You need a car though. 20 minutes drive from the airport. When renting a car it is advisable to book in advance as it can be very busy there.

This house has all the facilities you can think of, everything has been taken care of perfectly. Well designed, well maintained, well serviced. If offers three terraces, one in front of the house, here one can dine under a roof. One in the back around the swimming pool and a large one on the roof. We had a small child of 2, no problems. Three bedrooms, complete with bathrooms, offer privacy. Then there is a large area with living room, dining room and kitchen. 15 minutes drive from Bari (you do need a car there) which is a lovely city with medieval centre and ample opportunities for dining and shopping. In short, can't be better! Recommended!

Villa Isabella was perfect for our stay of 4 adults and 2 children. The location is great. Not far to walk to Torre a Mare, or catch the local bus which runs regularly and takes less than 10 minutes. It was about 30 minutes on the bus into Bari. This was a relaxing holiday we decided to forego the car as we knew in August we would not be wanting to travel around and certainly our two grandsons would not be up for it. We didn't need it, Torre a Mare has some great restaurants, a supermarket which is well stocked and bakeries. It is very Italian, which is exactly what we wanted. There are also plenty of places to buy fresh fish along the road from the villa. There is also a restaurant about 5 minutes walk. The villa is well thought out and very comfortable with plenty of outside space. The pool was lovely. Maria was there to meet us and very welcoming and helpful. Michelle was at the end of the phone when our driver could not find the location and their cousin Angelo was also on hand if we needed him (which luckily we didn't). We can highly recommend this villa and would have no hesitation in holidaying there again.

We had a great experience staying with Michele & Maria, the villa lived up to our expectations, its was very clean, well equipped and the location is very close to the sea and if you like seafood the local fishmongers are worth a visit. The pool was refreshing, the roof terrace was so pleasant that we could have stayed all day but there is limited shade so be careful. We had a couple of short power outages during our stay but never more than 10-15mins but other than that everything worked as expected. Torre a Mare is a short bike ride away, there were 3 adult bikes available and we enjoyed the restaurants, coffee shops and gelateria's. We were sorry to leave, especially leaving our new friend, the neighbours friendly dog on the adjacent plot who we named Rufus Hound. If you go, then be sure to give him a biscuit from us.

We loved the villa which is modern with amazing outside areas to sit and relax. The pool is great and from the roof terrace you can see the sea which is 100yards away. You can walk down to the the seafront to purchase freshly caught fish each day or a short drive to a number of local supermarkets to top up on whatever else you may need. We loved the villa and highly recommend it.

My family had a fantastic week staying here. Michele and Maria were very helpful, with lots of local information and dining out suggestions. They even went out of their way to switch one of the double beds to 2 singles for us, which was such a nice thing to do. The villa was perfect for our needs. It's very well equipped and is laid out very well with amazing outdoor seating spaces. We made good use of the herb garden too. The pool was a nice size with easy access and was well maintained. With the fabulous weather we had, we were lucky to be able to use it every day. The only small issue we had was because we had a really large estate car and so parking and manoeuvring was a bit of a squeeze but it was not too big a deal and our other smaller car had no issues at all. Thank you Michele and Maria for a wonderful week in your villa. We really enjoyed every day we had in this lovely, well thought out villa!

Nous avons apprécié les différentes terrasses, la piscine, le modernisme des chambres et bien sur l'accueil de Michele et de Maria. Nous étions 3 couples d'amis et nous avons passé 15 jours à profiter de cette superbe région. Il ya 4 poissonneries à proximité de la maison , une boulangerie qui fait de super spécialités, et le joli village de Torre a Mare! Tout pour passer de très bonnes vacances

We enjoyed a lovely holiday in Puglia. The house, located at the seaside in Torre a Mare, is exactly what you need for a fantastic vacation. Three nicely decorated bedrooms with accompanied bathrooms, a well equipped kitchen and living room completely air conditioned. Outside, we enjoyed the swimming pool and the roof terrace with view on the Adriatic sea. We would like to thank Michele and Maria for their friendly hospitality and all the tourist information, guide to restaurants and shops. We highly recommend this lovely place to all future visitors of Puglia.

What a gem of a place! We got there late in the evening tired and hot, and found a beautiful calm oasis to enjoy our holiday in. Maria was so helpful and kind, full of good advice, nothing seemed too much trouble. Highlights of the villa are its high quality, multiple places for outdoor eating/relaxing, and the pool - a real hit with the kids and adults alike. The surrounding area is charming and rustic, the locals are friendly and the food is great. Further afield there is plenty of historical and natural beauty to enjoy. We spent 2 weeks there, I am already looking forward to returning.

Set on a quiet residential lane , this detached villa is beautifully designed with an abundance of outside space . The roof terrace is lovely for catching the sea breezes and viewing the Adriatic ( approx. 100m away). The pool is a constant depth and the pool area is well designed with split level sunbathing areas and a 10 seater table with huge parasol for maintaining some shade. The front of the house has a large shady veranda with another table and chairs and sofas so there is a choice for outside dining and relaxing. The gardens are beautiful with unusual cacti, an ancient Mulberry tree and while we were there full of lavender and Bougainvllea which attracted some beautiful butterflies. There are even fresh herbs in the roof garden area which we used when we barbequed. The kitchen is well equipped with lots of cooking utensils and tableware. All 3 bedrooms are a good size each with a good sized shower room and plenty of wardrobe and storage space and comfortable beds. The air conditioning was a must as temperatures reached the high 30s while we were there. There is an efficient security system and a safe so our personal items could be left in the villa when we went out for the day. The local fishing village, Torre a Mare, is good for a few restaurants and cafes if you don't want to travel too far.The Crema Croissants were amazing at the Mistral cafe washed down with a cappuccino. The little supermarket there was well stocked but we also did a few bigger shops at the Iper Simply supermarket at the Bariblu shopping complex which is very large and you can get just about anything there. Free parking. We visited some other local towns . Our favourites were Polignano a Mare ( we went late afternoon and had dinner there twice), Monopoli , Ostuni and Alberobello which is a must for seeing the quirky Trullis. Try to get off the main highway as the countryside on the quieter roads is much prettier. The bikes were a nice touch but as there were 4 adults and only 3 adult bikes , we only used once when myself and my husband rode them into the local village early one morning. Michele and Maria , the owners, were very helpful and were there for our arrival and check out. Angelika who maintained the pool was also lovely and friendly. If you go to the Torre Guaceta, try not to end up on the nudist beach as we did ! Unless of course you intend to. Sadly we saw no flamingos and found the best beach only as we were leaving. You cannot swim at the Zone A beaches

We had a fantastic 11 days at the Villa Isabella, Maria and Michele were extremely helpful before we arrived and even more helpful on arrival, perfect hosts. Angelica was also very helpful and extremely friendly. The apartment is well equipped with everything you need for a relaxing holiday. There are some beautiful places to visit, one of our favorites was Matera and Monopli coming in a close second. The food was superb and the Italian people very friendly, would highly recommend a visit. thank you Maria, Michelle and Angelica from Michelle, Jasper, Anne, Sam and Jack

We were three friends staying at Villa Isabella towards the end of June. The Villa is modern and finished to a high standard. There was everything we needed at the villa, and lots of extras - shampoos, soaps, hair dryers, lots of coat hangers, a safe, a washing machine. And an excellent security system. The kitchen was extremely well equipped, and there was even a herb garden! The pool was easy to access ( Roman steps) and was very well maintained. The roof terrace was a delight with far reaching views and the sound of the sea. The perfect place for an aperitif before going out for an evening meal. Th villa is very well located being only 25 mins from airport and within a very short drive of lots of interesting places to visit. We would recommend Alberobello and Monopoli. Michele was extremely helpful both before and during our stay. He gave us lots of local information, answered all of our enquiries and even arranged a basic shop before our arrival so that we did not have to rush out to the supermarket. Angelica came twice a week to make sure we were alright and to change the linen. She was so cheerful and very keen to help. We had a wonderful holiday. Thank you Michele and Angelica.

Wir hatten eine tolle Familienwoche zu sechst (3 Paare) in der wundervollen Villa Isabella, die keine Wünsche offen lässt. Super gepflegt, extrem sauber, sehr liebevoll und grosszügig eingerichtet - man hat dort einfach an alles gedacht! Die Betten sind bequem, die Küche ist komplett, es gibt eine Waschmaschine und Pool, Terrasse und Dachterrasse (mit Meerblick) sind noch schöner als auf den Fotos. Die Villa liegt ganz in der Nähe von Torre a Mare und man kann mit den vorhandenen Fahrrädern seine täglichen Einkäufe erledigen. Für grössere Einkäufe gibt es in der Nähe (10 Minuten mit dem Auto) das Bariblu Einkaufszentrum. Man kann Ausflüge nach Polignano a Mare, den Trulli von Alberobello, Bari und vieles mehr von dort aus machen. In Torre a Mare gibt es natürlich auch gute Pizza und viel leckereres Eis :-) Wir haben uns super wohl und sicher gefühlt und unsere gemeinsame Zeit in der Villa Isabella absolut genossen. Beide Autos (und 4 Fahrräder) stehen innerhalb der Grundstücksmauern und eine Alarmanlage ist ebenfalls vorhanden. Michele, der Vermieter, hat uns mit dem Fahrrad an der Küstenstrasse abgeholt und zur Villa geführt und dort alles erklärt. Er war jederzeit erreichbar und hat unsere Fragen immer beantwortet - vielen Dank dafür an Michele und auch an Angelica, die uns verabschiedet hat. Herzlichst von N. & Co.

A beautifully designed villa in a touristically unspoiled area, furnishedin a stylish but cosy manner. The villa Isabella is an extremely well equipped house, offering high standards also with regard to security. It is offering a lot of atmosphere in the outdoor area, thanks to a small but beautiful garden. The outdoor area is beautifully lightened during the night, even the roof terrace, which offers wonderful sounds of the sea, and the pool, inviting to go swimming in late hours. It is close to attractions like Bari, Trani, Alberobello, Matera and even Ostuni. In the morning, we did shopping tours by bike, buying fresh fish and bread just around the corner along the coastline. Then we had breakfast on the roof terrace, which is equipped with modern lounge furniture and enjoyed the day at the pool or in the garden before we went exploring the country during the evening hours. The Villa Isabella is highly recommendable and was far beyond our expectations. Thank you Michele for reacting so quickly and positively to our special wishes. Once again we know why we love this country and its people so much. Renate, Wolfgang and kids, Austria

We, a family of five, stayed at Villa Isabella in mid August. We had an amazing time! The villa lies outside the village of Torre a Mare and only a 10 minute drive south of Bari. Husband and daughter took the bicycles to Torre a Mare in the mornings to buy our breakfast at the local bar and have coffee Italian style! The villa is very modern and spacious. The rooms all have a double bed and their own bathroom. The kitchen has all necessary facilities. There are two parking spaces available so we could even have brought friends! The villa has a fabulous roof terrace and the pool is perfect for kids. The villa is located on a small road (bring a sat nav!), 50 m from the sea side. The sea was warm and very clear – perfect for an afternoon swim. Not a place to stay all day as it is rocky and hot but as the villa is so close you can enjoy both. The owners, Maria and Michele, were very helpful both before and during our stay. We rented a car and explored the area, visiting local beaches with organised facilities, the grotte, and the local villages such as Bari, Albero Bello, Monopoli and Polignano. A favourite was San Vito and lets not forget the outlets! The kids loved the Indiana Park climbing experience! The Villa is perfectly located for day trips in the area and only a 20 minute drive to the airport!
