From Gargano to Salento: Holidays in Villages in Puglia

With over 800 km of coastline, Puglia is one of the regions most appreciated by tourists from all over the world who choose it as a destination for their holidays dedicated to the sea and relaxation.
In Puglia we find long beaches of golden sand interspersed with majestic cliffs and panoramas that enhance the crystalline sea, but also villages rich in history that preserve precious gastronomic gems.
The tourist offer is excellent: prestigious hotels, charming B&Bs and farmhouses surrounded by olive groves are found throughout the Apulian territory, while along the coasts of the Gargano and Salento we find resorts and holiday villages ideal for a family holiday.
A few steps from the sea, with a swimming pool and entertainment for adults and children, tourist villages are the type of structure most appreciated by families and by those who want to experience a holiday dedicated to the sea and life in the open air.

You can choose from the numerous villages in Puglia, where you will also find numerous "Early Booking" offers, useful for experiencing a holiday in a village at the best price in villages and resorts in the Gargano and Salento.

A mini club, sports activities, beach service and dips in the pool await you!

Let's look together at the differences what the territories of Gargano and Salento have to offer.

Holidays in the Gargano village

Also called spur of Italy, the Gargano is a promontory located on the northernmost part of Puglia. Its territory falls almost entirely within the homonymous national park. The inner area is covered largely by the majestic Umbra Forest, while along the coasts we find the most touristic places such as Peschici, Rhodes Garganico to the north, Vieste to the east and Mattinata to the south.

The coast on the north-east side offers long sandy shores, with shallow waters suitable for everyone, while the southern one is more jagged and offers us very suggestive natural spectacles, which can also be admired on boat trips.
Thanks to the very long beaches and the numerous tourist villages, the Gargano is highly recommended for families and couples who want a peaceful holiday.

Village holidays in Salento


Il Salento, also known as the Salento peninsula, is the southernmost part of Puglia and is bordered by the Ionian Sea to the west and the Adriatic Sea to the east. The western Ionian coast is characterized by long sandy beaches while the eastern coast, washed by the Adriatic, is a little more rocky and jagged. In addition to the beautiful Lecce, the major centers are Gallipoli on the Ionian coast and Otranto on the Adriatic coast, but all the municipalities offer a crystal clear sea and dreamlike panoramas.
The offer of tourist villages is very rich.

In the innermost area we find a fascinating rural landscape, made up of olive groves and farmhouses.
Salento also has a more worldly side and for this reason it is also appreciated not only by families, but also by young couples and groups of friends.
