Gifts

For us, a guest is not just a guest

We strive every day not only to welcome those who decide to stay at our Residences, but to make our guests, who come to our land from all over the world, an integral part of a large family by transmitting to them the atmospheres, scents, flavors, sensations of our beautiful Puglia. This is simply the reason why every year we give our guests a small welcome gift, the result of the skilled hands of Apulian artisans and closely linked to our territory that can tell the story of the land of Puglia.

Season 2026

Puglia. Land of millennial olive trees

This season, we wanted to celebrate the olive tree as the very soul and living testament to the passage of time in our region.
This is not merely a tribute, but a true sensory journey through three outstanding examples of Apulian craftsmanship and their high-quality products. We begin with the EVO oil from Frantoio Fazio (Bitetto), the Green Gold and lifeblood of Apulian cuisine; followed by skincare entrusted to the natural cosmetics of Zarina Cosmesi (Acquaviva) and its soaps crafted from the purity of olive oil, whilst beauty takes shape in the ceramics of Bottega d’Argilla (Bari), hand-modelled from the earth that nourishes our trees.
A coming together of craftsmanship that creates memories and experiences; we would like to thank Raffaella (Frantoio Fazio), Caterina (Zarina Cosmesi) and Deborah (Bottega d’Argilla) for their professionalism.

Season 2025

Puglia and the photographers of Magnum Photos

The 2025 season saw a meeting of minds and intentions with the Biscozzi Rimbaud Foundation in Lecce, custodian of an important artistic and cultural heritage, which highlighted a shared desire to promote culture, art and beauty in the region.
An experience that has condensed his memories into a photographic volume of considerable artistic depth, entitled “La Puglia vista dai fotografi dell’Agenzia Magnum Photo” (Puglia as seen by the photographers of the Magnum Photo Agency), that we wanted to gift to all our beloved guests.
We would like to express our heartfelt thanks to the Biscozzi Rimbaud Foundation, in particular to its President Dominique Biscozzi Rimbaud, and the Secretarial manager Anna Maria Maggio.

Season 2024

Glimpses of Puglia

With our photographic selection “Glimpses of Puglia”, in 2024 we wanted to share with our guests snapshots of the soul of our region. Carefully selected views, an invitation to discover characteristic corners and unique atmospheres. Each shot, carefully framed, is an invitation to immerse yourself in the beauty of Puglia and bring with you an unforgettable memory of your stay.

Season 2023

Capasa

In the 2023 season, we wanted to recall the Apulian peasant tradition through a modern re-edition of the “Capasa”, the typical terracotta container used for food storage. For the creation and customization of our Capasa, we relied on the workshop of the master ceramist Tiberio Belliggiano of San Pietro in Lama (Lecce), an exponent of Salento craftsmanship.

Season 2022

Salento Goomah

In 2022 a dear childhood friend of ours Caterina Laforge from Modugno (Bari) wanted to collaborate personally with us by shaping with her own hands a very pretty ceramic reinterpretation of the Salento goomah

Season 2021

Breakfast placemats

Thanks to the golden hands of the tailoring artisan Raffaella Antonelli from Grumo Appula (Bari), in 2021 we chose an object that our guests could use in everyday life such as breakfast placemats

Season 2020

Jar with organic extra virgin olive oil

In 2020, the flagship of Puglia’s agricultural tradition, its “Green Gold”: organic extra virgin olive oil. Produced by the Dottor Simone farm in Barletta and packaged in a traditional artisanal terracotta jar.

Season 2019

Salento housewife

In 2019, in collaboration with the friends of Magicaterra di Bari and their master craftsmen, we opted for one of the symbols of Apulian craftsmanship, the typical Salento terracotta housewife.
