4-Star Beachfront Resort on Gargano National Park's Private Beaches - Baia Delle Zagare
Private Beach Access & Coastal Setting
Recognized by National Geographic as one of the 10 most beautiful beaches in the world, the hotel offers two private beaches reachable via panoramic lifts. Guests receive assigned sun loungers and parasols, eliminating the need to reserve spots each morning. The seasonal outdoor swimming pool provides sea views, while the solarium and private beach area are included in the room rate.
Dining & Culinary Experiences
Two on-site restaurants serve local and Mediterranean cuisine, with a dedicated restaurant offering sea views from its terrace. Interactive cooking experiences with professional chefs allow guests to prepare traditional Apulian dishes during themed evenings like the weekly Serata Pugliese. The beach bar provides snacks and drinks, while a coffee house on site and wine/champagne service complement the dining options.
Accommodations & Room Features
Rooms are located across six villas set within a lush garden of palm trees and Mediterranean vegetation, with some suites offering multiple bedrooms for families. Deluxe rooms include private balconies or terraces overlooking the sea, while each room provides a minibar, TV, and air conditioning. Tea and coffee-making facilities are available in all rooms, and soundproof construction ensures quiet stays.
Activities & Recreation
Guests can borrow kayaks and paddleboards at no extra cost, explore the coastline via hiking trails, or use the on-site tennis court with equipment provided. Evening entertainment includes live music, themed performances, and a weekly Puglian night with traditional food and dancing. The fitness center's floor-to-ceiling windows face the Faraglioni rocks, offering a view typically reserved for cruise ships.
Location & Cultural Access
The hotel sits inside Gargano National Park on a cliff above Zagare Bay, 30 km from Vieste's historical center and near Monte Sant'Angelo, a UNESCO World Heritage site. Guests can book group boat tours from the private beach to explore sea caves along the Gargano coastline. The property provides a free shuttle to nearby attractions and free shaded parking for guests arriving by car.
