The Maldives of Salento

An endless expanse of fine white sand caressed by a crystal-clear sea with a thousand shades of blue. Soft and reassuring dunes, scattered with protected white lilies and Mediterranean scrub, crossed by a gently winding wooden walkway that weaves its way through the lush pine wood and guides you to the beach (also known as the Maldives of Salento).

Vivosa's sea is that of the Salento Ionian Coast, crystal clear and very clean, with a seabed that gently slopes in depth. With its well-equipped private beach, Vivosa is a true paradise for sea lovers

The landscapes alone inspire passion -whether it’s the rolling vineyards of Tuscany, the sun-kissed Amalfi Coast, or the dreamy canals of Venice.
