Borgo Egnazia has operated in Puglia since 2010. It is built from tufo and local stone, and its designer, Pino Brescia, drew on old Puglian farmhouses and rural villages.

The official count is 27 villas plus the Casa Padronale.

The standard villa types are listed at 2,690 square feet. The Casa Padronale is listed at 5,382 square feet.

The villas hold three en-suite bedrooms, private gardens, rooftop terraces, and pools. A massaia prepares breakfast and looks after housekeeping.

Everything about the property points back to its sources: the stone of the region, the forms of its farmhouses, the village as the model.

It is Puglia rendered as a place to stay, at the scale of a village and the privacy of a house.
