Time to Relax experience.
White magic
Mediterranean spa culture in a coastal farmhouse, in Puglia.
The aptly named Borgobianco Resort & Spa, occupies a beautifully restored Puglian farmhouse, in the countryside of Polignano a Mare: a coastal town famous for its fascinating sea caves. Its white façade blinking in the Southern Italian sun, Borgobianco Resort & Spa is easy to spot, standing out against the intense blue of the Mediterranean sky, the silvery green of Puglia's olive trees, and the deep gold of the region's sun-scorched earth. Borgobianco is set in gardens full of rosemary, sage and thyme which, together, produce an unmistakably Mediterranean bouquet and the promise of the sweet relaxation which awaits guests within the resort's thick stone walls.
The resort's large outdoor pool, framed by century-old olive trees, is divided into two sections: one with hydromassage facility. The water is heated to maintain a constant temperature of 30°C, making outdoor bathing an option from early spring to late autumn. During the summer season, light lunches and drinks are served by the pool. In the spa there is an indoor swimming pool, a Turkish bath, sauna and gym.
Borgobianco Resort's spa method combines traditional therapies with the latest in wellness research. All packages include a personalized diet plan, created in collaboration with a professional nutritionist. The majority of the ingredients used to create Borgobianco's deliciously light, flavor-packed dishes are grown in the kitchen garden. A drizzle of the resort's excellent extra virgin olive oil is the only dressing required.
The spa menu includes luxurious treatments by Declèor, including the "Grain de Sel" exfoliating massage, performed with sea salt, essential oils and calendula petals, and the "Terres d'eprices" which uses algae and Ghassou - a soapy clay of Moroccan origin, to reduce water retention and obtain a noticeably slimmer silhouette.
Beauty treatments are by Thalgo and are designed to restore optimum skin health using organic ingredients. Not to be missed, the wonderful olive oil and lavender "welcome massage" which prepares the skin for cell renewal whilst moisturizing. Aromatherapy fans will love the aromamassage performed with irresistible mixtures of essential oils, such as basil, black pepper and grapefruit or lemongrass and mint.
