Palazzo Margherita  

In the residential heart of Bernalda, a short walk from Piazza Plebiscito and Bernalda Castle. The Ionian Coast and Metaponto’s archaeological sites are within easy reach — sandy beaches about a 15-minute drive and Matera roughly 45 km away. Luxury boutique hotel and family-friendly base for exploring Basilicata.

Housed in a late‑19th‑century villa that was meticulously restored, the hotel mixes frescoed ceilings and tiled floors with modern AV and comfort. Nine elegant rooms and suites feature balconies, private terraces or garden access, in‑room media players and minibars. The property’s lush courtyard, fruit trees and a Baroque fountain give it a secluded, cinematic vibe.

Seasonal outdoor pool with pool bar, solarium and sun loungers; a spa and massage rooms; free bicycles and a small theatre for films and events. The well‑kept garden and protected inner courtyard are ideal for quiet mornings and citrus-scented evenings. Complimentary beach shuttle to a partner lido (umbrellas and loungers not included), concierge services, valet and on‑site parking.

Conference hall, meeting and presentation facilities plus rooms for private events and screenings. High‑speed Wi‑Fi is available in rooms and public areas, and valet/concierge support for logistics and transfers.

On‑site restaurant focuses on authentic Basilicata flavors. Options include the garden grill for grilled specialties and pasta, a café/pizzeria open for lunch and dinner, and the Family Bar for quick meals and aperitifs. Hearty continental breakfast is served each morning and cooking classes are available on request.
