Patrizia and Salvatore are the most hospitable hosts one can imagine and very knowledgeable guides to all the offers of Puglia. They opened the doors of their wonderful Villantica to our family for three nights in early April. The included breakfast was a cornucopia of local delicacies, many of them produced at Villantica. We decided to have all our dinners in in the Villa too, and like the breakfasts, they helped initiate us into to the typical cuisine of the Lecce-region in the most flavorful way. Our kids enjoyed all the tasty dishes as well. All dinners were finalized with small tastings of Villantica’s delicious homemade liquors. Our two daughters loved to play with the three very kids friendly dogs of the Villa. We also had wonderful afternoon and early evening in the Spa in the Villa’s basement, including some very long and relaxing massage-sessions, performed by a professional masseur. We wholeheartedly recommend everyone who are planning a trip to Puglia to stay at Villantica - it’s a real gem! Best, Kasper
