Top neighborhoods in Polignano a Mare

Historic Center

Polignano a Mare's Historic Center will make you feel like you've tumbled into a medieval fairy tale perched on dramatic white cliffs. Ancient limestone buildings cling to rocky outcrops while narrow pedestrian-only lanes wind between charming piazzas and hidden viewpoints. The iconic Lama Monachile beach sits below, framed by a stunning stone bridge and turquoise Adriatic waters. Family-run trattorias serve fresh seafood in cave-like settings carved right into the cliffs. Boutique hotels and luxury B&Bs occupy restored stone buildings with sea-view terraces. The neighborhood is entirely walkable but involves steep steps and uneven surfaces, so wear comfortable shoes while exploring this car-free Italian gem.

Macello

Macello captivates visitors with its dramatic clifftop setting where cream-colored limestone buildings perch above the crystal-clear Adriatic Sea. Medieval archways frame breathtaking coastal vistas while narrow cobblestone alleys wind between ancient walls dating back to the 4th century BC. The Pino Pascali Museum showcases local art, but the real masterpieces are the panoramic points where golden sunsets paint the water below. Traditional Puglian trattorias serve fresh seafood and homemade pasta in this authentic southern Italian neighborhood. Boutique B&Bs in converted historic buildings offer stays with stunning sea views. Most of Macello's treasures are best explored on foot, with hidden grottos and swimming coves accessible via stone pathways carved into the dramatic coastline.

Polignano a Mare is a city close to Bari. This specific beach is peculiar for its location underneath the city centre. As a consequence, you can see people and houses from the water and they can see you from there! #colorful

You can easily explore the nearby Grotta Ardito Promenade or head to Lama Monachile Beach when you're ready for a swim. Family-run trattorias serve delicious Puglian seafood dishes in this quiet residential pocket of Polignano a Mare. Boutique B&Bs and vacation rentals in converted historic homes offer authentic stays with personal touches. Getting around requires good walking shoes as steep streets and clifftop terrain make this neighborhood best explored on foot.

Gelso

Perched dramatically on limestone cliffs, Gelso's ancient quarter charms visitors with narrow medieval streets and whitewashed buildings overlooking the Adriatic. The statue of Domenico Modugno and Lama Monachile Beach draw travelers, while clifftop terraces offer breathtaking views. Intimate piazzas buzz with local life as the sea breeze carries scents of wild herbs. Family-run trattorias serve fresh seafood and orecchiette pasta with romantic ocean backdrops. Boutique hotels in converted historic buildings feature traditional vaulted ceilings and sea-view terraces. The pedestrian-friendly center requires good walking shoes—steep cobblestone paths wind between centuries-old buildings carved directly into the rock.

San Vito

San Vito charms with dramatic limestone cliffs plunging into the crystal-clear Adriatic. The ancient Abbey of San Vito stands watch over secluded coves where turquoise waters invite swimming and snorkeling adventures. Stroll the waterfront promenade for breathtaking sea views or explore hidden beaches like Porto Cavallo and Cala San Giovanni. Seafood trattorias serve fresh catch with panoramic ocean vistas, perfect after a day of cliff-top wandering. The neighborhood is best explored on foot along coastal paths. Beach-view B&Bs and converted stone houses offer intimate lodging options with that authentic Puglian touch.

"The owner was incredibly helpful, friendly, and and very resourceful very resourceful. The breakfast was amazing. This property is a very unusual property and that it isn’t in a house that is over 300 years old. There are very narrow, stairways and doorways, but overall it is very charming, but not appropriate for everyone. It is in a perfect location, however, it requires a unique taste."
