Borgo Egnazia
Borgo Egnazia opened in 2010 and was built from scratch in local tufo limestone to look like a Puglian village that had always been there: a piazza, lanes, courtyards, whitewashed walls and 183 keys divided between the hotel building, the village houses and private villas with their own pools.
About Borgo Egnazia
Borgo Egnazia opened in 2010 and was built from scratch in local tufo limestone to look like a Puglian village that had always been there: a piazza, lanes, courtyards, whitewashed walls and 183 keys divided between the hotel building, the village houses and private villas with their own pools.
It is the largest wedding operation on this list and the only one on it that hosted a G7 summit, in June 2024.
Weddings run from about 50 guests to 500, using the banqueting hall, the pool terraces and the village square, and the resort keeps an events team, five restaurants including the Michelin-starred Due Camini, a spa, a beach club on the Adriatic at Cala Masciola and the San Domenico golf course next door.
What you get here is capacity and control: everything your guests need is inside one gate, which is the argument for Puglia over the coast when your list runs past 150.

I was there in April of 2022 and was blown away by how beautiful the whole of the premises was. We were treated like royalty. The Borgo Spledida room was wonderful!

Questions about the venue
How many guests can Borgo Egnazia hold?+
From about 50 to 500. The banqueting hall, the pool area and the village square each take groups between 50 and about 300, and the largest weddings use several at once. It is the only property in this collection built for a guest list that size.
What does a wedding at Borgo Egnazia cost?+
The resort quotes event fees from around €25,000, which is the entry point rather than the bill. Planners put a two or three day celebration for 50 guests staying on site at €130,000 to €250,000 all in, and a full 183-key buyout well above that.
Can everyone stay on the property?+
Yes, which is the main reason large weddings come here. 183 rooms, village houses and villas hold a big guest list inside one gate, so nobody drives anywhere for three days and the welcome dinner, the wedding and the pool day all happen on foot.
Is there a beach?+
The resort runs a private beach club at Cala Masciola on the Adriatic, a few minutes away by shuttle, and it is where most weddings put the day-after lunch. The sea is not at the door: the village sits back from the coast among olive trees.
Which airport do guests fly into?+
Bari Karol Wojtyła is about 55 km and 50 minutes north, and Brindisi is about 60 km south, so a guest list can split across two airports. Both have connections through Rome, Milan and several northern European cities in summer.
When is the season in Puglia?+
May to early October, and July and August are genuinely hot inland. Late May, June and September are what planners recommend, and the resort runs a winter closure like most of the region.
