Borgo Egnazia, Puglia

Borgo Egnazia in Puglia is a whitewashed village resort that gained fame hosting the 2024 G7 summit and A-list weddings. Its 183 rooms and villas spread over 40 hectares create a self-contained community, with 50% more outdoor space than any other property on this list. The resort's three private beaches have a 4.8/5 average rating for cleanliness, faster than the typical Italian coastal hotel. A stay starts at €950 per night, cheaper than #6 Grand Hotel Tremezzo by €100 while offering more amenities. Borgo Egnazia's authentic Apulian architecture, built from local stone, sets it apart as a cultural immersion rather than just a luxury stay.
