Borgo Egnazia

Borgo is the Italian word for village. Borgo Egnazia, a stroll from the Adriatic Sea on the fertile plains of Puglia, is a village of dreams hewn in the beautiful white Tufo stone of the region. But although it looks as if time, sun, footsteps and sea breezes have weathered its facades, Borgo Egnazia is a 21st century creation that sparks the imagination with its characterful buttresses and the higgledy-piggledy layout of the casette around the central Piazza Don Cataldo. You arrive at La Corte (the court), which sits like a manor house or Moorish Castle to the side of the village. It’s a castle of troubadours and sanctuary though, not of battlements. Alternatively you can choose to stay in one of the Borgo’s casette, à deux or as a family of four, which nestle around two piazzas down bougainvillea- scented alleyways that you would swear had been there since the days of carts and horses. Larger families might prefer to take one of our villas that fringe the village with their own pools and shaded gardens, lush with oleander and rosemary. It’s Borgo Egnazia: it’s nowhere else. www.borgoegnazia.com 2017 Italian Spa Awards - Best Destination Spa Award 2017 Condé Nast Traveller Spa Awards – Winner of Most Life Changing Experience 2016 Boutique Hotel Awards – Winner of Europe’s Best Wellness Spa and World’s Best Wellness Spa 2016 European Hospitality Awards – Winner of Best Hotelier of the Year (Aldo Melpignano) 2016 European Health & Spa Awards - Winner of the category for the Best European Spa Manager 2016 Best of the Best Virtuoso Award Winner - Best Hotel of the Year 2016 2016 Forum HOTel & SPA – Winner of Black Diamond category for the Best Spa Manager 2014 Leading Hotels of the World - First ever “Remarkably Uncommon” Award 2013 World Luxury Spa Awards – Best Luxury Emerging Spa Tatler Spa Awards – Category Winner 2012 Junior Magazine – Best European Hotel The Gala Spa Awards – Innovative Spa Concepts Tatler Travel Awards – Best New Family Hotel
