Featuring a private beach, Hotel Terminal has an outdoor pool and sun terrace, shaded by an ancient pine tree. With Mediterranean Sea views from its restaurant and terraces, it is on Santa Maria di Leuca's promenade. Headboards in the bright rooms are made from local Alessano stone. The décor includes images and sea shells from the Salento region, and locally made furnishings. Most rooms have a balcony, some overlooking the sea. A sweet and savoury breakfast is served in the elegant restaurant or on the terraces. Lunch and dinner consist of typical Salento cuisine, made from local ingredients. Tastings can be arranged in the well-stocked bar, and cooking lessons are available. Offering sun loungers and parasols, the beach is linked to the hotel by a private passageway. The garden offers shady areas and Wi-Fi is free throughout. The 24-hour front desk can arrange bike and car rental. Surrounded by 19th-century villas, Terminal Hotel is 7 minutes’ walk from the harbour.
