You’re staying in a charming trullo in San Michele Salentino, an ancient village known for its famous almond-flavored figs. You’ll find yourself in a grove of olive trees in a relaxing setting, just a 20-minute drive from the beaches of the Torre Guaceto Nature Reserve—one of the 16 most beautiful marine protected areas in the world. Families with children will appreciate the magic of sleeping together beneath the iconic cones. The property sleeps five, features a fully equipped kitchen made of local stone, and a flower-filled garden lovingly tended by the owners.
