Luxury Travel Advisor - March 2008 - (Page 16) DESTINATIONS Puglia, Italy With its farmhouse-hotels and rustic, earthy beauty, Puglia offers an unforgettable, under-the-radar experience. BY SHARRI WHITING DE MASI In southeastern Italy, Puglia draws visitors for its off-the-beaten-path charm, offering a true place to retreat. (Tip: In English, the region is called Apulia, its original Latin name.) The Relais Villa San Martino (www.relaisvillasanmartino.com) in Martina Franca is a gorgeous place for a wedding, honeymoon or luxury getaway. Martino Solito’s elegant hotel is filled with art and antiques and is set within a manicured garden. The general manager is Claudio Feliz Gherardini (direzione@relaisvillasanmartino.com); Guest Relations Manager Martina Frullanti (direzione@relaisvillasanmartino .com; 39-331-639-5933) is a travel advisor’s dream—there’s nothing she doesn’t anticipate. Here, silk curtains and bed coverings and oriental rugs are the norm. We loved the lightfilled suite 111 in the villa, with its large terrace overlooking the pool and two full baths with Jacuzzis (Tip: All rooms have Jacuzzis; ask for a suite with two baths). Suite 101 on the ground floor is designed for clients with limited mobility; however, with its big private terrace, it’s also perfect for honeymooners. Deluxe rooms 201 and 202 in the garden building have private terraces and access to the pool, while Junior Suite 203 overlooks the amphitheater. 16 LUXURY TRAVEL ADVISOR | March 2008 http://www.relaisvillasanmartino.com
