Unique Stays in Eastern Sicily

Curated Stays in Puglia — A Handpicked Selection



I did an extensive road trip around Sicily in 2024. I loved the island and can’t wait to go back. You can check out my highlights, routes, and tips through this link

I’m here to share extraordinary stays—handpicked hideaways that stand out for their bespoke service, meticulous attention to detail, and exceptional design. Each selection is thoughtfully curated to highlight spaces where aesthetics, comfort, and personality come together naturally.

Some of the links in this list are affiliate links—if you book through them, it won’t cost you anything extra, but it helps support this project (kind of like buying it a coffee, but way more exciting)
