L'ARCO ANTICO is a small historic building, whose very ancient original structure and laborious restoration work, in harmony with the existing architecture, have restored the beauty and simplicity of the past. The small but cozy rooms, equipped with all comforts, and the sun terrace are available for your moments of relaxation. All rooms, with a view of the historic center, are equipped with a private bathroom, air conditioning, and heating. On the second floor, you will have access to the sun terrace, a large 30sqm space in front of the famous balcony of S. Stefano with breathtaking views of the Adriatic Sea. With its precious outdoor furnishings and beach towels, our roof terrace is the perfect place to indulge in all the relaxation you need anytime. On the terrace, you can enjoy a minibar with drinks and extra snacks listed in the menu available in the rooms. Breakfast is served at a renowned bar/café in the historic center near the property. L'ARCO ANTICO is located 33 km from Bari and 24 km from Alberobello.
Finally, I will be able to welcome you to L’ARCO ANTICO, and let you enjoy a holiday full of relaxation, nature, and the fantastic views of Polignano a Mare. I have always personally organised my trips to make the most of the places and get to know the local customs and traditions, paying great attention to the choice of accommodations. With the same care, I want to dedicate myself to your holiday in my brand-new facility. I can't wait to welcome you!
The absolute charm of the landscape and the striking view of the sea embracing L'ARCO ANTICO are waiting for you. Let yourself be welcomed by the beauty: an embrace between the typical local architecture and the classic hospitality that distinguishes the land and people of Apulia.
