Ella Stays: a home of understated luxury, nestled in tranquility.
Just steps from the crystal-clear waters of Santa Maria al Bagno, Ella Stays is an intimate retreat where time seems to slow down. A home of understated luxury, immersed in tranquility, it invites you to enjoy the essentials and leave the noise behind.
Located on the southwest coast of Puglia, Ella Stays is located in the marina of the elegant baroque town of Nardò, a short distance from the pristine nature of Porto Selvaggio and some of Salento's most evocative destinations: Gallipoli, Lecce, and Otranto. Its privileged location allows you to easily explore a multitude of charming villages and baroque towns, architectural and cultural gems nestled among centuries-old olive groves and breathtaking coastlines.
From white-sand beaches to natural pools carved into the rock, every day offers a new scene to discover. The property is the result of a meticulous architectural renovation: a project that respected the site's history, breathing new life into an existing space with contemporary materials, clean lines, and meticulous details.
The rooms, like the garden, reflect a simple yet refined style, where every element is designed to offer harmony, beauty, and tranquility. In the garden, three olive trees welcome guests under a large pergola, creating a shady corner perfect for reading, thinking, or doing nothing.
The sea is just a few meters away. The small marina town is easily accessible on foot, with its charming beach nestled among the rocks, restaurants, bars, and shops. Whether for a slow-paced stay between sea and culture or as a starting point for Apulian adventures, Ella Stays is the perfect place to let go and rediscover your own rhythm.
