Since 1890

A family home,
open to your story.

Villa Maria is a nineteenth-century estate in Castellana Grotte, in the heart of Apulia, restored and stewarded by a family that has practised the art of hosting for generations.

A historic hall, intimate rooms, a pergola overlooking the park, a glass-walled Belvedere and a pinewood of centuries-old cedars and pines: every space, a different setting.

«Our spaces adapt perfectly to your needs, even to an evocative Winter Wedding.»

— The Villa Maria Family
