15 Best Luxury & Boutique Hotels to Book in Italy - AFAR
"A rustic-luxe resort modeled on a traditional Puglian borgo by trailblazing hotelier Aldo Melpignano, centered around a lively piazza that hosts summer festivals and tarantella dancing. Stone-built rooms and standalone villas recall local farmhouses and are decorated in a chic rustic style swathed in white linen. The wide-ranging amenities include seven restaurants (including the Michelin-starred Due Camini for romantic dinners), three bars, the Vair spa, tennis courts, four pools, a kids club with pasta-making and a farm area called Fattoria di Maria, and a free shuttle to the Cala Masciola beach club. The property is single-use–plastic free, provides stainless-steel water bottles, and offers bicycles for eco-friendly exploration, making it equally suitable for honeymooners and families." - Laura Itzkowitz, Erica Firpo
