With D-Day commemorations over, the leaders of the free world have headed to Italy for the G7 conference. There’s a lot to discuss; including upcoming elections in France and the UK, the recent European elections as well as the situation in Ukraine and Palestine. President Biden, UK Prime Minister Sunak and France’s President Macron will all be sequestered behind the bougainvillea-drenched walls of Puglia’s most famous resort.

The word Borgo translates into English most easily as village, and even though it was only created in 2010, the design of Borgo Egnazia deliberately apes a traditional Puglian village albeit with a Michelin-starred restaurant, an extensive spa, one of Italy’s best golf clubs and a beach club.
