Italy Puglia

The Best Airbnbs in Ostuni: Charming Stays in Italy’s White City

August 12, 2025

Last Updated on January 26, 2026 by Lauren Belzer Sanford

The Puglia region of Italy will always hold a special place in our hearts, especially the city and surrounding countryside of Ostuni, given that this is where Max and I were married (symbolically).

It’s no secret that opting for an Airbnb can be more cost-effective, not just in Italy but anywhere, compared to a full-service hotel. This is especially true if you’re going to be in a city center or exploring the city all day.

The best part about Ostuni is that you have so many options, whether you want to be right in the action in the city center or relax in a beautiful trullo in the countryside. Here are the top options we found when we conducted our search.

While I haven’t personally stayed at every Airbnb on this list, each one was hand-picked for its dreamy decor, great location, thoughtful amenities, and glowing guest reviews.

Le Dimore del Tempo Perso Terrae Globus

2 guests | Book on Airbnb

Small and cozy, and perfect for two people looking for something inexpensive in the heart of Ostuni’s city center. It’s located incredibly close to well-renowned bars, restaurants, and within walking distance to many of Ostuni’s main attractions.

We stayed at Le Dimore del Tempo Perso Terrae Globus for two nights and could not have been happier with the price and location! It’s not the most luxurious or “Instagrammable” Airbnb to exist in Ostuni, but it is ideally located down the way from La Gilda, Taverna della Gelosia, and Il Posto Affianco. Not to mention it’s just across from the entrance of the famous Osteria del Temp Perso and a short walk away from Borgo Antico Bistrot.

Just be prepared that it’s inside this hill city, so regardless of the direction you go, you’ll have to trek up a hill or steps to get there.

Palazzo Bergamotti N.3

2 guests | Book on Airbnb

This beautiful Airbnb has been on my list since before we even decided to get married in Puglia. Unfortunately, it was unavailable for the dates we will be there, and we would have loved to consider staying here. It is beautifully decorated and located in the heart of Ostuni, allowing you to walk around and enjoy the White City.

Il Trullo della Gallina

2 guests | Book on Airbnb

Il Trullo dell Gallina is a countryside Airbnb, and my goodness, is she stunning! This is perfect if you’re looking for a more relaxing countryside stay – complete with a pool! You’ll most definitely need a car to reach this gorgeous trullo.

Lamia Cervone

2 guests | Book on Airbnb

The perfect secluded spot in the countryside for couples or honeymooners! Complete with a small pool and lounge chairs, plus an outdoor sitting area, this Airbnb is a wonderful option if you just want to plant yourself somewhere and relax!

CA ‘milla Suite Home

2 guests | Book on Airbnb

Aside from the cute interior, CA ‘milla Suite Home lets in a generous amount of natural light and also has a patio/balcony for sitting outside (nice to start the morning, or after a long day of exploring). It’s also centrally located in the heart of the city center, offers free parking on the street outside, and is pet-friendly!

We actually almost booked this beauty for our two-night stay in Ostuni, but the day we went to go back and officially book, it was no longer available. You snooze, you lose, right?

Alesia Luxury Suite Ostuni

3 guests | Book on Airbnb

Alesia Luxury Suite Ostuni is another centrally located Airbnb within walking distance to many things, including the Sant’Oronzo Column. It has a nicely decorated interior and can fit up to 3 guests – perfect for a small family!

If you need space for more than just two guests, I recommend checking out these Airbnbs in Ostuni, depending on the size of your group:

Casa degli Aragonesi

4 guests | Book on Airbnb

Casa degli Aragonesi is a beautifully restored historic home tucked in the heart of Ostuni’s old town — just steps from the main square.

Spread over two floors, the home features two double bedrooms, two bathrooms, a spacious kitchen with an island, a dining room with a balcony, and a cozy lounge with built-in sofas. Upstairs, a rooftop terrace steals the show. Perfect for slow evenings with a view!

Casa Luce

4 guests | Book on Airbnb

Casa Luce offers the best of both worlds in Ostuni, just a short stroll to the winding streets of the old town and equally close to the shops and cafés of the modern center. Free parking nearby makes it extra convenient for exploring.

Breakfast is included (a wonderful added touch), and according to their description and reviews, the hosts go out of their way to make you feel at home, offering local tips and recommendations to help you make the most of your stay.

The Seven Cones – Trullo Edera

4 guests | Book on Airbnb

Technically in Ostuni, but a bit closer to Cisternino, if you’re looking for an adorable trullo experience, let Trullo Edera be it! Not only does it have a pool, but it also has a gorgeous outdoor area that you could enjoy homemade dinners and coffee in the morning!

Luxury Design Villa

6 guests | Book on Airbnb

If you’re looking for something for a slightly bigger group or family, and somewhere that you can all unwind in the luxurious quiet of the countryside, this gorgeous home in Ostuni is the perfect option. It’s modern, it’s sleek, it’s updated – and it has an incredible infinity pool overlooking the olive trees! It’s about a 15-minute drive from Ostuni, on the way to Cegile Massapica.

Terra Quieta

8 guests | Book on Airbnb

When I tell you I am obsessed with this Airbnb…now I need to convince some of our couple friends to head back to Puglia with us!

This stunning villa with a pool and trulli, outside of Ostuni, is the perfect getaway for a group or family. Terra Quieta has the rustic charm of a beautifully restored four-cone trullo meets the clean lines and effortless elegance of a modern villa — a blend of tradition and design that feels both timeless and fresh!

The heart of the property is the trullo, now a master suite complete with a cozy sitting area and an additional niche bed. Steps away, the main villa — crafted entirely from tuff and local stone — offers airy, light-filled spaces that open onto panoramic countryside views.

The grounds are filled with centuries-old olive trees, almond and fig groves, and fragrant native plants. The infinity pool seems to melt into the landscape, perfect for cooling off during a hot summer day. And when you stay at Terra Quieta, the entire property is yours — from the private garden and rooftop terraces to the trullo, villa, and pool — offering complete privacy and a true sense of escape!

Masseria Silentio

8 guests | Book on Airbnb

Masseria Silentio was a post-trip find, but it is absolutely stunning and saved in an Airbnb Wishlist for a future stay in the countryside of Ostuni, whether I have a group of eight or even less. The character and eclecticness of the decor is everything to me — it feels like something collected versus curated (if you know the difference, then you also know the difference in the feeling a space like that gives you).

And the pool? This is genuinely a wonderful spot that I could see myself coming back to and enjoying a glass of crisp rosato after a long day of exploring, cooking a homemade meal in the kitchen from ingredients I picked up at the local market, and talking with my favorite people long into the night. It’s the kind of place that would make you romanticize life to the nines, I can just tell!

Honorable mentions, and solely because they’re not located in Ostuni and I found them on Instagram instead of Airbnb, are:

  • Casa Petra
  • Borgo del Duka

Looking to visit Ostuni? I highly recommend booking one of the above or any other stunning Airbnb in Ostuni or a masseria hotel. No matter where you choose to stay in Ostuni: Airbnb, standard hotel, or masseria, you trulli can’t go wrong!

who am i trying to impress?👀✨

the younger version of me who thought traveling to dreamy destinations was something other people did. the girl who would have been thrilled just to go to some of these places once. who wouldn’t have imagined visiting some of the places she has (some multiple times) …

… the girl who made the dream of an Italian wedding a lived reality.

i’ve wandered Rome more than once, sat on the rocky beaches of Mallorca in the late summer sun, admired places up close that that i used to pin on Pinterest like they weren’t even real ...

& yes i share it all. the hotels. the research. the lessons. the mistakes. the magic. ✨ i share the stories because they matter to me — and because maybe they’ll matter to you, too. 🫶🏼

a place where time stood still & golden sunsets lingered.✨🇮🇹☀️

📍 @masseriagrieco was a dream come true for our destination wedding, truly a place i find myself escaping to in my dreams. the golden light, the olive trees, the centuries-old stone. there’s something subtly cinematic about life in Puglia that keeps drawing me back in. i can’t wait to return, next time as a guest of the masseria, someday soon!
