Polignano a Mare
Whitewashed cliffs over Lama Monachile and the legendary Grotta Palazzese.
Welcome
A small home with a story, in the white heart of Puglia.
Le Maison de Margot is not a hotel and not just a rental: it is a home, designed with care, where contemporary design meets the sun-washed stone of the centro storico. Pop-art portraits, a green-marble table, oak floors and a deep-teal wall — and outside the door, all of Monopoli on foot.
The apartment
One home, designed down to the last detail.
A bright open-plan living-kitchen, a quiet double bedroom and a spa-like bathroom. Sleeps up to four. Click any photo to enlarge.
