Description: Sure, Italy is one of a handful of the world's romance capitols, but one crowded summer day in the center of Rome will quickly open one's eyes to the fact that, although romantic and dramatic, the mainstream destinations of Italy are also frantic. That's why you'll want to speak about Puglia, and Borgo Egnazia, in hushed tones.
Seaside, and storied when it comes to history, Puglia is stunning. Walk down Roman roads, and run your palms through the tall wildflowers while dreaming of Elysium - but don't go there so fast; you've got some living to do.
63 rooms and suites are dreamlike in cream and white, and include touches of locally quarried limestone, as well as all the modern touches you can think up. For more space to stretch out, opt for any of 93 townhouses, or one of the expansive villas.
Authentic regional dishes can be enjoyed indoor, on the terrace, or right on the private beach. Glasses are kept full with well-paired wines you're sure to recall for years to come
When you're not gorging, get busy with golf, tennis, dipping in the pool, cooking lessons, water sports, or just lazing on the pristine beach. Choosing which to pursue is what one calls "a good problem to have."
