BERNALDA
Palazzo Margherita is situated in Bernalda, a small hilltop town in the Basilicata region of Southern Italy. Located in the province of Matera, famous for its ancient cave dwellings, dramatic landscapes, and historic houses, Bernalda remains relatively unknown outside of Italy. The coast is just ten minutes away, where miles of white sand beaches meet the Ionian Sea.
While the neighboring region of Puglia has become popular with visitors, Basilicata remains largely undiscovered, one of the few remaining parts of Italy where the culture, food, and wine remain deeply connected to local traditions. The townspeople offer a genuine hospitality that makes visitors feel more like friends or neighbors than tourists. It is said that anyone who visits Bernalda cannot resist returning.
