    Travel information

    Perched majestically on a hilltop overlooking the azure Adriatic Sea, Ostuni, often called 'The White City' (La Città Bianca), is a jewel in Puglia's crown. Its labyrinthine streets, whitewashed buildings, and stunning panoramic vistas make it an unforgettable destination for any traveler seeking authentic Italian charm and breathtaking beauty.

    • List pool, garden, outbuildings and any areas excluded from guest use.
    • Agree maintenance and seasonal preparation separately from guest turnover.
    • Document vehicle access, utilities and the local contact for urgent work.

    When to visit

    The best time to visit Ostuni is during the spring (April-May) and early autumn (September-October) when the weather is pleasantly warm, ideal for exploring the town and surrounding countryside without the intense summer heat and larger crowds. Summer (June-August) is vibrant and lively, perfect for beach days, but expect higher temperatures and more tourists.

    3. Prepare and hand over

    Agree the work needed before publication. Coordinate keys or access, property documents, inventory, photography and any existing bookings. Do not cancel reservations or close listings before a handover plan is agreed.

    Read the fee in context

    Ask what revenue base the commission applies to, which costs are separate, and how owner stays or cancelled bookings are treated. The written proposal is the reference for your home's fee.

    Frequently asked questions

    Can I move an already rented home to you?

    Yes, we can discuss a handover. Share your current agreement, future bookings and access arrangements first. Listing ownership, reviews and reservation transfers depend on the platform and existing contract; they should not be assumed transferable.

    Who approves repairs and pays expenses?

    The proposal and contract define responsibility, included costs and approval thresholds. Ask for those details before signing, including how an urgent repair is handled and how costs appear on your statement.

    Can I reserve dates for myself?

    Ask to block your dates before bookings are accepted and check the conditions of your plan. Existing confirmed guest reservations need to be respected.

    What appears on an owner statement?

    Review rental income, the agreed management fee and any booking or property costs. Ask us to explain an example for your proposed agreement, including payment timing and any taxes shown separately.
