About our B&B

HABITARE is a secret corner in the vibrant heart of Lecce, the pearl of Salento.
Nestled right by the ancient walls of the old town and just a seven-minute walk from the Duomo, this elegant penthouse in a historic building offers a mesmerizing view over the city's rooftops and the bell tower of the cathedral, where the beauty of the past meets the pulse of the present.
Here, every detail is carefully crafted to offer an authentic and sustainable experience.
The five rooms, each with its own unique character, are furnished with reclaimed materials, reinterpreted in a design that blends industrial charm with the warmth of Salentine tradition.
It's a perfect fusion of modernity and the soul of the land, where every corner tells the story of cultures intertwined and a hospitality that goes beyond simply providing a place to stay.
HABITARE is not just somewhere to sleep; it is an experience that transforms your journey.
Every space in this sanctuary speaks to you, every detail is designed to make you feel part of an atmosphere that is unlike any other, where time seems to stretch and every moment becomes a small pleasure to savor.
Here, hospitality means so much more than a stay: it’s an invitation to dive deep into the culture of Salento, to discover the beauty of a land rich in history, flavors, and traditions, and to live each moment as part of an extraordinary experience.
The philosophy of HABITARE is also reflected in its care for the land: the breakfast, prepared with fresh, locally sourced ingredients, is a daily celebration of local flavors—an invitation to rediscover the simple joys of Salento.
The food and wine experiences are at the heart of our B&B, where every tasting tells a story of passion for authentic, sustainable cuisine.
Ideal for those seeking a discreet luxury retreat, and equally perfect for those who wish to immerse themselves in the laid-back, authentic rhythm of Salento.
