Surrounded by light blue seas and powdery sands, Puglia blends a vast and stunning coastline with a wealth of picturesque towns filled with unique sights and unusual buildings. A luxury holiday in Puglia offers you the chance to relax on breathtaking beaches, to wander through whitewashed villages like the iconic trulli of Alberobello, and to enjoy fine Italian cuisine.
‘Secluded Apulian Retreat, Between Mountain and Sea’
Basing its appearance on a traditional Apulian village, Borgo Egnazia is set within 20 hectares in the south of Italy. The hotel complex sits between the ancient Greco-Roman ruins of Egnazia and the 18-hole championship quality golf course of San Domenico. The rooms, suites and large villas spread across three areas of the resort. The first is La Corte, which opens out into two swimming pools and the La Corte rooms. The second area, called Il Borgo, houses the family pool, the expansive piazza space and the townhouses, while 30 additional villas are dotted around the area, each with a private pool and between 3 and 7 bedrooms. Each villa is incredible spacious, with light interior tones and exclusive services. Restaurants primarily serve a mix of Apulian specialities and Mediterranean favourites, while a regular events calendar unveils opportunities for additional dining and wine-tasting.
‘Traditional Italian Elegance, Baglioni Style’
Find this historic 17th-century Apulian Masseria nestled between verdant olive groves and the Adriatic Sea near Otranto, a beautiful embodiment of rustic Italian elegance. 40 spacious rooms and suites are whitewashed to reflect the warm light of southern Italy, with various options for both couples and families alike.
Outdoors, the grounds of the hotel are bordered by enchanting courtyards of colourful flower gardens, a refreshing swimming pool for adults, and a dedicated pool for children – all backdropped by the Alimini Lakes and native flora. Guests can also unwind with massages, rituals and facials at the Baglioni Spa and Gym. The hotel’s two gourmet restaurants serve the flavours of Puglia with a side of breathtaking lake views, while the two inviting bars offer classic Apulian cocktails and a premier selection of wines.
