A unique dwelling in the enchanting city of Ostuni, nestled in Italy’s Puglia region, is now open for Airbnb rentals, starting at $60 per night.
Despite its medieval fairy-tale appearance, the trullo boasts modern amenities.
The kitchen is fully equipped with all the necessary cookware, as per the Airbnb listing. There’s a spacious bathroom and a charming patio, perfect for enjoying evening drinks beneath the starlit sky. Additionally, Wi-Fi is available for your online needs.
The bathroom features an expansive shower, and outside, an infinity pool offers a refreshing dip during the day, shared with two neighboring properties, as indicated in the Airbnb listing.
Surrounded by olive trees, almond trees, figs, and prickly pears, the tiny home offers breathtaking views, and guests are encouraged to “pick and eat” the fruits, according to the listing.
Trullo homes have a fascinating history. These distinctive, seashell-like structures are a common sight in Puglia, with a design that traces back to the mid-14th century. Constructed without mortar, these limestone structures served as temporary housing, allowing for quick dismantling—a clever strategy to evade taxes on new settlements, as highlighted by the tourism site Italia.
