Borgo Egnazia | Italy

Savelletri di Fasano, Puglia
Four-StarLHW Leaders Club

Aurelle Curator's Verdict

Borgo Egnazia is the ultimate Mediterranean playground for those who crave the romance of an ancient Apulian village with the seamless, hyper-curated service of a modern five-star resort. Purists seeking a truly historic, centuries-old farmhouse might find it a bit 'too perfect,' but it is an unbeatable choice for families and design-lovers. The one signature experience worth flying for is the Roman Thermal Baths at the Vair Spa, a candlelit, multi-sensory water journey that feels truly transcendent.
