Rooms have a vintage feel, dressed in a blend of antiques and upcycled materials; the best suites have exposed stone features and all rooms offer a private patio.

Scilla Maris Hotel

Scilla Maris is the name of a flower which is found in Vendicari Nature Reserve just a five-minute drive away from this hotel. The owners, Raimondo and Ilaria, who originate from Padua, were the ones who turned this former 16th-century palmento into a small but homely place to stay.
