Giovì Relais

Giovì Relais is a small hotel in central Polignano a Mare, one of Puglia’s most distinctive coastal towns. Its interiors combine the pale stone associated with this part of southern Italy with a clean, contemporary style, and accommodation ranges from Superior and Deluxe rooms through to Junior Suites and Suites.

Breakfast is served on the hotel’s terrace, while facilities include a solarium with Jacuzzi and a dedicated spa and wellness centre. The central location is one of its strongest attributes: rather than staying outside town and travelling in each evening, guests are already in the heart of Polignano a Mare and can explore independently on foot.

Rooms & Suites

Accommodation at Giovì Relais includes Superior Rooms, Deluxe Rooms, Junior Suites and Suites. Rooms are air-conditioned and include private bathrooms, Wi-Fi, minibar, safe and television, with some accommodation also offering balconies. The overall style is understated and contemporary, making good use of the stone and neutral tones characteristic of the region.

Spa & Wellness

Giovì Relais has its own spa and wellness centre, with facilities including a Turkish bath, salt room, chromotherapy treatments, Jacuzzi and relaxation area. Spa access and treatments are available by reservation and incur an additional charge, making this a useful option after a day spent walking or exploring Puglia.

Location

Giovì Relais is located on Via Roma in central Polignano a Mare, placing the historic centre, cafés, restaurants, shops and waterfront within easy walking distance. Lama Monachile, the small pebble beach set between the cliffs beneath the old town, is around a five-minute walk away.

The location also works well as a base for exploring inland Puglia. Alberobello and the trulli country of the Valle d’Itria, Locorotondo, Monopoli and the olive-growing landscapes further south can all be incorporated into a wider Puglia itinerary.
