For relaxation, the Adler Spa Resort Sicilia features sea-view rooms, multiple pools, and wellness activities that speaks to eco-conscious travelers.
Charming Puglia
Puglia, located on Italy's heel, offers breathtaking coastlines and idyllic towns like Alberobello, famed for its trulli houses. International interest has surged thanks to its stunning scenery and luxury stays, like the Masseria Torre Maizza, a restored farmhouse complete with gardens and a golf course.
