“This newly built resort sits amid 18 hectares of Puglian landscape, giving a sense of escape. The all-inclusive offering, from meals to local wines, is a definite plus for families or couples looking to unwind; proximity to the Torre Guaceto Nature Reserve adds to its appeal. While clearly geared towards longer stays, the extensive amenities-from kids' clubs to a private beach-make it a solid base for exploring the region.”
