A beautiful property with lots of history! Our room was incredible! Very spacious, spotlessly clean and an old staircase (not accessible) in the bathroom. The staff were welcoming and so helpful. The pool area is lovely with shades and plenty of seating/lounges and a fresh water outdoor shower. Breakfast was wonderful. Sad to leave after only 1 night.

This charming city boasts a fascinating Baroque flair, mainly in the Piazza del Duomo Square, which houses the historic 12th-century cathedral.

The watchtowers around Salento

The coast of Salento is speckled with numerous fascinating watchtowers, originally built in the 16th century to fend off pirates.

Try the mouthwatering pasticciotto

Visit one of the many cafés in Lecce’s Piazza Sant’Oronzo and relish this scrumptious mix of rustic pastry and creamy custard.

The harbour-town of Otranto

This pretty harbour town houses the 12th-century cathedral, famous from its mosaic-covered floors, and the Aragonese Castle, now a modern art space.

Punta della Suina Beach

Surrounded by a pine forest, the crystal-clear waters, fine sand and stunning views of historic Gallipoli make this beach a perfect paradise.

FAQs about hotels in Salento

A Magic Southern Jewel

Comprising the south part of Italy’s Region of Puglia, the Salento peninsula is located in the ‘heel’ of the Italian ‘boot’. With an unusual and beautiful landscape, it also has traditions shaped by explorers and invaders from a variety of cultures that reached its coasts.

If Salento is a jewel, the main piece is definitely the city of Lecce. Its walled historic centre is greatly admired for the uniqueness of its Baroque style. It also has a Roman theatre and a Greek amphitheatre, both still in use. Try a hotel in Lecce’s old town and go back in time!

Blessed with the waters from the Ionian and the Adriatic seas, its rocky coves and small sandy inlets contrast with the light blue waters. Popular beach hotels in Puglia’s Salento region are located near the Alimini Lakes and the Portoselvaggio Bay.

Other important coastal areas are Porto Cesareo, Torre dell'Orso, Santa Maria di Leuca and Santa Cesarea Terme. Gallipoli and Otranto deserve a visit not only for their beaches, but also because of their beautiful historic centres, mostly shaped during the Aragonese domination of the area.

It was so lovely everything being single storey. Such a sense of space and escape. The food was so great. Some of the buffet can be a bit underwhelming, but when you figure out which of the counters to go to for the best food, you're on to a winner. The speciality stall at lunch was incredible. The apertivo times were so good. Such amazing variety. And to cook pasta on mass and still be brilliantly at dente is super impressive. The flavours were amazing, the olive oil available for the tables was so delicious. The staff were all so lovely and accommodating. The kids club and the entertainment activities were so much fun. The beach is small but paradise. The main pool is amazing. Always more than enough sunbeds and umbrellas, and an excellent temperature.

Me and my boyfriend stayed for a long weekend in May at this beautiful, truly private, magical place and we had the best time. The people, especially the host, Adriano, were extremely kind, warm and welcoming, it was hard to leave. The property is stunning, a dreamy place with history, the rooms we saw (we had to switch at some point) were very classy and beautiful. The perfect place to charge batteries, also, incredible food. I am absolutely thrilled and will hopefully be able to come back some time!

Breakfast is divine. A healthy selection of fruit, yogurt, juices and the most inviting selection of pastries. I loved the grounds and patios - so beautifully decorated with large pottery urns overflowing with blossoms. I loved listening to the bees buzzing and the birds singing when I first wake up of a morning and seeing all the colourful blossoms - particularly the brilliant bougainvilleas.

It's a beautiful town, with tight alleys, excellent for strolling. There are a couple of things to see, like the Co-cathedral, but the strong point are the restaurants and bars - very lively and high quality. Worth spending 1 day to visit and enjoy. Great to have the base in Ostuni an go out in the evening for dinner and/or drinks.

We had a wonderful time in Porto Cesareo.

We had a wonderful time in Porto Cesareo. The beaches are absolutely beautiful, with crystal-clear water and lovely sandy shores. We also found the area quite affordable, especially the food and fresh seafood, which was delicious and reasonably priced. One of the highlights of our holiday was the A Mare Salento catamaran trip. We really enjoyed the beautiful scenery, swimming and snorkelling stops, and the relaxing atmosphere on board. The crew were friendly and made the experience even more enjoyable. Porto Cesareo is a beautiful place for a family holiday, with amazing beaches, great seafood and plenty to enjoy without spending too much. We would definitely recommend visiting and would love to come back again!

The sea is really beautiful, transparent blue water.

The sea is really beautiful, transparent blue water. The shore decline slowly into the water, allowing fun for children and not swimmers. The beach itself is very crowded, almost not possible to walk trough the towels and the beach umbrellas. Most of the beach is free entrance, so you may save some money. The few organized beaches are always full. All along the shore you will find some beach restaurant and bars for the day. If you want to find larger beach and less crowded you shall take a car and drive 15 minutes to Baia deglie Angeli / Punta prosciutto. This is a small city on the coast, mainly visited by locals or italian tourists. It is not a typical tourist place with fun and shops. Most of the time you shall stay on the beach, because the shops will open around 5pm. Evening life start about 8 pm and it concentrated on a central street with some restaurants. Prices are fair. For the evening, you can find some action in Porto Cesareo (15 minutes) Santa Caterina (30 minutes) or Gallipoli (45 minutes). Take care that parking is really messy.

Nardo is a stunning walkable city filled with beautiful architecture that you never tire of. It is easy to get to by train with amenities and restaurants and a relaxed vibe. I would use it as my base to visit Salento, one of the most beautiful cities in Puglia. It is particularly enjoyable to walk around the city as the historical center is mostly car free. The Piazza Salandra is absolutely stunning and has loads of places to sit and enjoy the gorgeous surroundings.
