Borgo Egnazia Puglia Italy - Puglia

In the very heart of Puglia, close to the Adriatic coast, and bordering the ancient Roman city of Egnazia, Borgo Egnazia has quickly become one of the Mediterranean's leading luxury resorts.

Seamlessly blending with the local architecture and heritage which defines this largely undiscovered region of Italy; this resort is truly a part of the local landscape, built from locally sourced materials and finished with a minimalist feel and neutral white walls to resemble the traditional Puglian village.

Boasting two restaurants, three outdoor swimming pools, an exclusive spa, tennis courts and a private beach in the nearby fishing village of Savelletri it is no surprise that Borgo Egnazia is gaining momentum.

The hotel accommodation ranges from elegant superior rooms to spacious suites all tranquil, airy and bright the quintessential Mediterranean feel and many offer views of the Adriatic Sea in the distance. Each room features cordless telephone, bathtub and shower glass, mini-bar, strongbox, wi-fi, LCD TV and entertainment system with USB connection and I-pod. The resort also offers 28 three bedrooms villas which are the most luxurious and exclusive accommodation in the resort; each villa features a terraced garden, private pool and wrap around balconies for you to enjoy the stunning views. The Borgo, meaning 'village' in Italian, includes 1 and 2 bedroom open plan townhouses with small kitchenettes and outdoor courtyard are also great option and you can still visit the traditional Apulian village square, with restaurants and the family friendly pool.
