Polignano a mare; an ancient town located on the Adriatic Sea in the Puglia region of Italy. You may have heard about it, seen it online, or even visited. But are you familiar with Palazzo Penelope: a luxury oceanfront townhouse in Polignano a Mare?
Palazzo Penelope is a luxury rental townhouse perched on a 70-foot limestone cliff facing the Adriatic Sea, directly across from the world-renowned Grotta Palazzese restaurant. Accommodating 10 guests with 4 bedrooms and 4.5 bathrooms, this property will exceed your expectations.
As you walk through the front door and into the living room, you’ll find a few steps leading down to the kitchen, with a bedroom to the left. As you descend, the sounds of waves crashing under you and the deep blue colors of the Adriatic Sea come into view. You step past the kitchen and outside to your own private oceanfront terrace. This is where my family and I spent most of our evenings- making Aperol spritzes, watching the sunset, cooking on the grill and laughing through long dinners.
On the second floor, two bedrooms face the sea, while the other two loft-stye rooms overlook the charming streets of Polignano. Once you reach the third floor, you’ll find spectacular ocean views along with your own private rooftop, lounge chairs and outdoor showers.
This newly renovated Apulian-style home, with Scandinavian designer items, African art, and Missoni quilts lining the beds, has been featured in Elle, Near & Yonder, Kinfolk, The Spaces, and Meravilgia Paper. Palazzo Penelope is truly a hidden gem that looks like an average townhouse, until you step inside.
