Sit back, close your eyes and imagine yourself in Puglia in southern Italy. Where the sun is at home, the warm, crystal clear sea water reflects the sky in the most beautiful blue-green tones and where the beaches almost look like in the Caribbean. Italy at its most enchanting and at the same time most original.
Start the day in one of the traditional café bars. Stroll through the weekly market with fresh local produce and end the day with dinner while arguing about the best pasta for a sauce whose recipe has been passed down in the family for generations.
LUXURY HOTEL WITH VILLAGE FLAIR
Here, where the landscape is varied and the coasts seem infinitely long, the towns and villages are characterized by charming sandstone yellow and whitewashed houses, there is a resort that will enchant you. Borgo Egnazia is not a resort in the classic sense, but rather a charming village with all the comforts that could not be more authentic.
The buildings, with the porous surface characteristic of the region, are made of light tufa. There is a church, a village square and a centrally located manor house, from which winding streets lead off and around which small houses are rowed. Olive trees, rosemary bushes and bougainvilleas characterize the piazzi and gardens. The scent of rosemary fills the air and a gentle breeze blows from the sea.
Opened in 2010, the hotel has quickly become one of the most prestigious quarters in Italy and is now considered a gem on the Apulian coast. But not only the exterior appearance of Borgo Egnazia, but also the interiors celebrate style and good taste: the bright classic-modern furnishings with rustic accents, the four-poster beds and marble bathrooms, the spacious, light-flooded corridors and, last but not least, the candles, which shine just in time for dusk, stand for an unobtrusive, contemporary luxury.
FOR SPORTS ENTHUSIASTS AND CONNOISSEURS
At Borgo Egnazia you can spend time that is wonderfully decelerated and yet never sluggish. For sports enthusiasts and all guests who want to make their stay active, there is an indoor and two large outdoor swimming pools, a fitness area, tennis courts and a sophisticated 18-hole golf course in the hotel’s own right next door.
Connoisseurs will be happy at the resort’s five Italian restaurants, including the Michelin-starred fine-dining Due Camini. And if you want to be introduced to the fine art of pasta making by the chefs or learn more about the specialties of Italian cuisine, you will not only leave Borgo Egnazia refreshed, but also with in-depth knowledge of Italian cuisine.
DISCOVER THE SURROUNDINGS
You can complement your stay at Borgo Egnazia with discovery and exploration tours in the region. For example, take a city trip to the nearby port city of Bari or switch to the other side of the Italian coast and visit Naples at the foot of Mount Vesuvius, as well as the ancient city of Pompei.
