Borgo Egnazia
Puglia, Italy
Welcome to Casa Monti, an Italian residence reimagined and opened to the world, inspired by the magnificent city of Rome. Just steps away from the Colosseum, Monti is a charming and eclectic neighborhood that showcases the vibrancy and resilience of the eternal city. It is a place where old meets new, and history meets contemporary culture.
The property’s 63-bedroom La Corte building; 92-bedroom Borgo; and 28 private villas are woven together by narrow side streets and winding alleys, mirroring the charming unexpectedness often found in small Italian villages. You’ll also find pools, private beaches, six restaurants, the inimitable Vair Spa, and the championship San Domenico Golf course.
