Travel & Stay

Puglia is served by two airports: Bari and Brindisi. Please note that you’ll need to take an internal European flight to reach either airport. For added convenience, we suggest flying into Rome FCO airport and then taking an ITA flight to either Bari or Brindisi. There are so many wonderful accommodations near the venue! Places are small and booking up, we suggest reserving soon. We’ve worked on some recommendations and have had some rooms held for us until the end of January. On the wedding day, we will provide transportation from a few of the masseria for your convenience. Renting a car while in Puglia is essential to fully enjoy all the sights, as public transportation and cabs can be hard to come by. Be sure to reserve your car early, as it’s high season! Feel free to reach out with any questions – we’re happy to help!

Explore Puglia

“Tra gli ulivi e il mare, la magia di Puglia” We fell in love with Puglia the moment we arrived and can’t wait for our family and friends to experience its beauty and charm. Discover stunning coastal towns like Polignano a Mare and Monopoli, with their picturesque cliffs and crystal-clear waters. Don’t miss the unique trulli of Alberobello and the charming streets of Ostuni. Indulge in local cuisine, especially the famous orecchiette, paired with their exceptional wines. With its beautiful beaches, rich history, and vibrant culture, Puglia offers unforgettable adventures at every turn!

Grottaglie - A ceramic lovers dream, less than an hour away.

Grottaglie, Apulia 74023, Italy

Grottaglie is an adorable town located in the southern region of Puglia. It’s known for its rich and prominent ceramic history, dating back to the 16th century, and is home to the the Ceramic District with over 50 shops. We suggest parking in the lot at the end of the Ceramic District and walk up the streets. It will be hard to leave without spending all your money on souvenirs!

Taste of Tradition - Cooking and Tasting Adventures in Puglia

Your masseria can help set up a pasta class, where you can master the art of crafting orecchiette, a local specialty. Additionally, immerse yourself in the countryside experience with olive oil or wine tastings that highlight the rich culinary traditions of Puglia.

Day by the Adriatic - Relax at a Lido Beach Club

Two beach clubs we love are Lido Bambu and Lido Palme. Both offer a range of amenities, including sunbeds, umbrellas, changing rooms, and delicious restaurants. We recommend calling ahead to reserve a bed, so you can relax and enjoy attentive service right by the beach as you soak up the sun!

Alberobello - Capital of Trulli

Alberobello, Apulia 70011, Italy

A world heritage site famous for its unique small historical cone shaped houses called trullo, they are what make Alberobello so unique! We suggest going early in the morning or in the evening to beat the crowds.

Ostuni - the 'white city'

Ostuni, Apulia 72017, Italy

Explore Ostuni's historic center and wander through its charming narrow, winding streets. Cars aren’t allowed in this area, so if you find yourself tired of walking, hop on an ape tour for a fun and unique way to see the sights!

Polignano a Mare - Sunsets on the Cliff

Polignano a Mare, Apulia 70044, Italy

Nestled atop a cliff with breathtaking views of crystal-clear waters, it is the perfect spot to enjoy a stunning sunset. Sip on a spritz, listen to live music, and watch locals take daring dives from the high cliffs of Cala Porto beach!

Lecce - the 'Florence of the South'

Lecce, Apulia 73100, Italy

Worth the hour's drive, Lecce dazzles with its stunning palaces and ornate Baroque architecture. The city is also filled with unique shops offering handmade goods, making it a fantastic destination for exploring local crafts.
