There are over 3,000 Chateaux names in the Bordeaux area but they do not represent a corresponding number of palatial mansions. less

Built by Alexander the Great in 331 BC it was second to Rome in size and influence. Its ancient Lighthouse was one of the Seven Wonders of the World and the Alexandrian Library built in the 3rd Century BC was the largest repository of knowledge of its time. Clepatra ruled and trysted with Marc Anthony here. Her palace is still visible in the Bay under 20 feet of water (together with the Lighthouse stones).
The worn but beautiful Art Deco buildings lining the Corniche show Alexandria has been trying to live it up in modern times. less

The Hotel was built on a hilltop on the plan of the ancient masseries, the old apulian farmhouses as a comfortable 4 star resort, a few steps from one of the most pristine seas in Italy.
Like the old farmhouses it has its own orchard where seasonal fruits and vegetables are grown for its kitchen.
Their family restaurant on the beach right below the hotel is a hot spot and serves the freshest local sea food.
From San Gregorio one can hire a boat to ride along the coastline which is dotted with Paleolithic caves and endless coves for bathing. The trip continues to Leuca and its lighthouse. This is the southernmost tip of the peninsula where the Ionian sea and the Adriatic sea meet.
If one is in the mood for culture the city Lecce is very close by. This is a jewel of a baroque city with dramatic architecture and a lively scene. Highly recommended.
