The villa is exquisite, extremely well-maintained and functional. The location is perfect for traveling around Puglia, but we found the villa so lovely that we didn't want to leave it most of the days. Luisa, the host, is amazing - responsive and attuned to our needs, from recommendations of what to do and where to eat, to help with anything we needed in the villa.

Everything was really perfect.

We had a truly wonderful stay at Villa Gioia. A unique and charming destination and way to spend the holidays — the villa is equipped with all the amenities including a vast backyard area with swimming pool and covered terrace. The host Luisa was very helpful, always on hand for anything we might need, and able to book local activities and events. We had a fantastic day out on boat and a great private chef catered one evening. This historic residence immersed in the green of the Apulian countryside is close to Corato with typical shops and restaurants, and well situated for further afield adventures. Overall, a fantastic stay and I would highly recommend to large groups.

Unique place with a wonderfull staff. We had a beautiful time here during our family holidays. Villa Gioia is a perfect place for those who want to feel past, the place has a good spirit and is very unique. All the equipment is working, rooms are comfortobale and beautiful. The staff is very helpful and friendly. And there are a lot of good places around: Unesco cities, beautiful beaches and places to buy puglian goodies, like best olive oil in Italy.

Everything was fine.

The property was exquisite and well kept. We loved all the amenities including the outside backyard to entertain. We highly recommend this eloquent home for anyone who is interested history and beauty. The supermarkets and beaches were nearby. The host Rosanna was a pleasure she was courtesy and very accommodating to our needs, we will definitely come back.
