Luxury retreat in Puglia: Felice Fontana (incl. Sauna, Gym, Pool)

We want our guests to know that Felice Fontana was created with heart, passion, and a deep appreciation for design, comfort, and authenticity. Every detail of the villa reflects our personal vision — to craft a place where people can truly unwind, reconnect with themselves, and experience the beauty of Puglia in its purest form.

We are passionate travelers ourselves and understand how important it is to feel both inspired and at home while away. That’s why we designed Felice Fontana not just as a luxurious villa, but as a warm and welcoming retreat that feels personal and genuine. From the selection of natural materials to the calming color palette and the Auping beds that guarantee restorative sleep, every element was chosen with care to enhance wellbeing and relaxation.

We believe in slow living — taking time to enjoy good food, meaningful conversations, and quiet moments surrounded by nature. Our approach to hosting is thoughtful and respectful: we value privacy but are always happy to share local tips, from hidden beaches to the best traditional restaurants and vineyards.

Ultimately, we want guests to know that Felice Fontana is more than just a property; it’s a reflection of who we are — people who love beauty, balance, and connection. We hope everyone who stays here leaves feeling recharged, inspired, and touched by the magic of Puglia.

We chose the area of Francavilla Fontana, in Puglia, because it perfectly captures the essence of authentic Italian living — a place where time moves slowly, nature thrives, and tradition is deeply rooted in everyday life. This region offers an ideal balance between peace and accessibility. Nestled in the countryside yet close to charming historic towns, beautiful beaches, and renowned restaurants, it allows guests to experience the very best of southern Italy.

Francavilla Fontana is known for its baroque architecture, vibrant markets, and genuine local hospitality. Unlike the more touristic parts of Puglia, this area remains serene and untouched, giving visitors the opportunity to enjoy an authentic connection with the land and its people. From here, guests can easily explore the whitewashed towns of Ostuni and Ceglie Messapica, the crystal-clear waters of the Adriatic and Ionian coasts, and the rich culinary heritage that makes Puglia so special.

We were drawn to this location because of its natural beauty — centuries-old olive trees, open skies, and a sense of calm that instantly restores the soul. The light here is unique; it changes throughout the day, painting the landscape in warm tones that create a magical atmosphere. It’s the perfect environment for relaxation, creativity, and reconnection with nature.

By building Felice Fontana here, we wanted to create a place that celebrates Puglia’s timeless charm while offering modern comfort and design. This area reflects our philosophy of slow living, sustainability, and genuine luxury — where simplicity and elegance go hand in hand.
