Step back in time at this historic Gallipoli home. Inside, dark wooden furniture, gold-framed paintings, and traditional archways set the scene for classic Italian grandeur. Head up to the rooftop terrace, though, and you’ll find modern comfort waiting – think a hot tub and seating with sweeping views over the city. The location couldn’t be better for soaking up Gallipoli’s atmosphere. Stroll through the old town lined with authentic trattorias and boutique shops, or wander down to the beach – it’s just a five-minute walk away.

About Lecce
Lecce’s famous baroque architecture is what sets it apart from its fellow sun-soaked Puglian cities. Think basilicas adorned with rose windows and intricately carved Madonnas, floral columns, and gargoyles galore – all in the pale stone of Puglia.
