Real estate fever in Salento: that's why the VIPs choose it.
Italy boasts numerous places of extraordinary beauty from North to South, each of them with different characteristics. Without a doubt, one of the places that in recent years has been particularly successful from an international point of view is Salento. The territory overlooks two seas: the Ionian and the Adriatic, which, when they meet, offer a marvelous spectacle to the observers who are near Punta Palascia.
Steeped in history and a culture that has its roots in ancient Greece, the Salento Peninsula has been chosen by numerous celebrities and international stars as the perfect place to build their own home. The first to inaugurate this real estate fever was Helen Mirren, similar choices by Francis Ford Coppola, Meryl Streep, Vasco Rossi, Madonna and Bono Vox. But what drives these celebrities to stay and buy apartments in Puglia?
Without a doubt, the proximity to the sea is one of the cornerstones of this choice. Whether on the Adriatic or Ionian coast, the peninsula offers some of the most beautiful beaches and coasts in Europe. From an artistic point of view, those who visit the area can only get lost in the Lecce Baroque, which has often been the backdrop to numerous films by the director Ferzan Özpetek, so much that the same people have renamed '' Piazzetta Carducci '' in '' piazzetta Özpetek ''. Food and wine also plays an important role: the famous '' Negramaro '' wine, the Gambero Viola di Gallipoli and the Pasticciotto.
But how much does it cost to buy a house in Salento?
It starts from a minimum of € 75,000 for houses in the inland areas, € 150,000 for the old villas in the Baroque City, up to a maximum of € 300,000 for the recently renovated estates a few kilometers from the coast. As for rented houses, the solutions are even more varied. The farmhouses are very crowded, ancient houses in the green of the Salento countryside, renovated in light colors (usually white) and "dry" walls (typical of the area).
The price is around € 30 per night. It is also possible to stay close to the coast in apartments with large gardens for 450 € per week. If you are looking for relaxation, within a fabulous resort you can take advantage of facilities with inside Spa, swimming pools and stables, ideal for families or couples, with prices starting from € 110 per person. In addition to the services offered by hoteliers, it is worth remembering that there are numerous festivals and fairs of typical products that, especially in the summer, animate the community of Salento.
Each village offers to visitors the opportunity to immerse themselves in the culture of the place through flavors, traditional music and the unmistakable landscape setting. Among the most famous events we remember '' La Notte della Taranta '' in Melpignano, folklore night where popular music and '' pizzica '' are the main attraction, gathering tourists from all over the world every year.
