Borgo Egnazia

A hotel village in the heart of Puglia

Located in Savelletri di Fasano, amidst the olive trees, Borgo Egnazia is one of the most beautiful addresses in Puglia. Its central location makes it an ideal starting point for exploring the region's beauty and its UNESCO-listed sites. A true 16-hectare tufa stone village where past heritage and all-inclusive comfortable services coexist, Borgo Egnazia has embodied Apulian hospitality for over twenty years. Designer Pino Brescia drew inspiration from the simplicity of old local farmhouses to reinterpret them in a more contemporary way within the property's 183 rooms. Borgo Egnazia offers three types of accommodation: La Corte with its cosy rooms, Il Borgo with the feel of a masseria, and Le Ville, which consists of elegant villas with swimming pools. Within the superb Vair Spa, guests are invited to experience the «science of happiness» through the swimming pools and Roman baths, the sauna and hammam, and treatments using natural products. For those wishing to enjoy the sea air, the Cala Masciola Beach Club faces the Adriatic and houses a restaurant dedicated to fish, while La Fonte beach will delight lovers of swimming in crystal-clear water. Borgo Egnazia also features 3 swimming pools and a variety of restaurants honouring the gastronomic richness of the Mediterranean, including the Michelin-starred Due Camini, the La Frasca trattoria, the «live» cooking at La Calce and finally Da Frisella, a culinary space dedicated to children.

ETHICS

Borgo Egnazia was built using traditional construction techniques, based on local materials such as tuff stone, which helps to keep the interiors cool during the summer. The interior furniture and decoration are made of wood, glass and other natural elements. The hotel produces its own olive oil and has a vegetable garden and fruit trees. It ensures the proper recycling of its waste and limits its use of plastic as much as possible. Finally, Borgo is equipped with modern facilities to reduce its water and energy consumption.
