SETTING & STYLE

Borgo Egnazia is an elegant five-star retreat of contemporary design with décor in relaxing shades of white, cream and taupe. Borgo Egnazia spans more than 49 acres and nestles between the undulating Valle d’Itria hills, ancient olive groves and the Adriatic Sea. The traditional fishing village of Savelletri is a mere 1.5km away. Since 2010 Borgo Egnazia is the essence of the authentic Puglian hospitality. The property is built entirely of “tufo”, the rough typical limestone, and local stones cut by the skilled hands of stone masters. Artist and designer Pino Brescia was inspired by the simplicity of Puglia’s ancient farmhouses and rural villages. It is a contemporary interpretation of Puglian architecture. Borgo Egnazia provides three kinds of accommodation, different in scope and size, but all conceived as a harmonious blend of tradition and innovation, modernity and authenticity, grandeur and simplicity.

All the restaurants at Borgo Egnazia narrate the Puglian tradition and the immense gastronomic richness of the Mediterranean culture.

Every day the Executive Chef Domingo Schingaro, along with his team and adviser Chef Andrea Ribaldone, is able to draw on a sublime culinary experience.
