Puglia, Italy
CAPTION: "After gaining popularity over the past few years, it's quite possible you've heard of Italy's southern region of Puglia, known for its whitewashed hill towns and bright blue waters.
A destination you may not be familiar with, however, is Puglia's small and baroque city of Nardó, located along the coast of the Ionian Sea.
A great base for exploring the many charming Apulian towns near by, the best way to experience Nardó is by staying at the Relais Monastero Santa Teresa.
An art boutique hotel, this property is also an 'albergo diffuso', meaning it has rooms and suites located in different historical palaces throughout the town.
This unique concept of hospitality will allow you to experience Nardó authentically, as if you were a local, making for an extra special stay.
