Position
The villa is only 50 m from the sea and is in a strategic position and enjoys a privileged view of Castro which makes it unique. Castro is a picturesque seaside town nestled in a pretty bay on the Adriatic coast of Salento between Otranto and Santa Maria di Leuca. The upper part of Castro dominates the sea below, while the lower part, near the marina, is characterized by a small and charming promenade and the tourist port which in summer is animated by beautiful evenings of music and open-air theater. The coast of Castro Marina, like almost the entire Adriatic coast, is rocky and jagged, the seabed high and dotted with many caves, a real marvel to visit by boat, accompanied by expert guides. Castro is in a perfect position to visit the nearby Santa Cesarea Terme, Santa Maria di Leuca and the beautiful Otranto.

Exterior
Surrounded by lush vegetation and the characteristic terraces with dry stone walls typical of the area, enriched with aromatic plants like the very fragrant myrtle, with olive trees and large maritime pines. In front of the house is an area with two terraces overlooking the sea, skilfully created to experience moments of relaxation and refreshment; in the smaller one, covered by a pergola, is a characteristic wooden table for dining outdoors, even during the hottest hours of the day. Slightly below is the larger one surrounding the swimming pool, equipped with sunbeds and deck chairs, wooden benches and a rattan sitting area; a large umbrella provides shade to the table in front of the annex, ideal for outdoor breakfasts. Just beneath the steps that connect the two outdoor areas is a convenient bathroom with WC and washbasin. Adorned by wonderful olive trees, near the infinity pool is a large Jacuzzi tub suitable for four persons. A practical laundry room, accessible from the stairs surrounding the house, completes the exterior. The villa has two entrances, one with a convenient parking area and the other with access to the coast road to go directly down to the sea.
The infinity pool is located in a perfect position to enjoy the breathtaking view and total privacy guaranteed by the surrounding vegetation; is reached via a few steps from the main house, and only a few metres in front of the annexe. Rectangular with one curved side, and measuring 8.5 x 3.3 m with a constant depth of 1.30 m, the pool is lined in PVC with a stone border and has chlorine purification and 3 steps leading down to the water. On the surrounding solarium area are sunbeds and deck chairs, an umbrella and two relaxation areas divided by splendid olive trees. A few steps away is the Jacuzzi tub (for 4 people) with sea view. The area is served by a shower and a bathroom. The swimming pool is open from the last Saturday of April until the first Saturday of October.
