Charming Townhouse in Martina Franca Old Town with Roof Terrace

Welcome to La Stellina di Martina: A star-vaulted sanctuary in Martina Franca, the jewel of Puglia’s Baroque towns.

Experience the soul of Martina Franca from a beautifully restored townhouse where authentic Apulian heritage meets serene, minimalist luxury.

Tucked away in the historic heart of the Centro Storico, this spacious townhouse offers a generous two-story layout, complete with a private rooftop terrace.

The space
La Stellina di Martina celebrates the art of “slow living”: spread across two light-filled floors, you’ll find a blend of natural textures and timeless Baroque architecture.

• The First Floor (Social Heart & Slumber):

Features a fully equipped kitchen with a gas stove and oven, microwave, full-size refrigerator and freezer, and a spacious dining table for six.

The Alcoba Stellina
Here, you’ll find a double bedroom, where a charming French balcony, a star-vaulted ceiling, and soothing natural textures create a bright, welcoming retreat. A small opening in the vault offers a glimpse into the smaller bedroom next door.

Rifugio Pugliese
The children’s bedroom features two single beds beneath a vaulted ceiling, offering a cosy, cocoon-like space that’s ideal for younger guests. A hidden gem that can serve as a reading nook, play space, or quiet retreat.

A separate bathroom is located on this level.

• The Second Floor (The Master Retreat & Terrace):

The Nectar Suite
A spacious, private hideaway featuring a double bedroom with an ensuite bathroom equipped with a walk-in shower.

Here, you have direct access to the crown jewel of the home: a private rooftop terrace where you can enjoy your morning espresso, bask in the Apulian sun, or share an evening aperitif under the stars.
The terrace is equipped with a large sun umbrella and a comfortable seating area.

The Location
Located on the charming Via Solitario, you’re just steps away from winding cobblestone streets, artisan bakeries, and lively trattorias. As the jewel of Puglia’s Baroque towns, Martina Franca is the perfect “hub” for your adventure:
