Surrounded by quiet pine woods, and bordered by beautiful beaches with crystal-clear waters to the North and South, Tenuta Negroamaro is a serene oasis away from the main routes. Nestled on the Ionian side of Salento's verdant hills, just four kilometers from Gallipoli, the estate offers a secluded retreat.

Book

Puglia, warmed by generations of slow sunshine living, has long kept its embrace a secret. Moments of stillness invite guests to wander back from the pool or enjoy farm-grown food from the kitchen. The hotel’s design, featuring wild red-soil gardens of cacti and olives balanced by cool interiors, reveres nature indoors and out, blending curated refinement with a sense of wildness.
