Ottolire Resort
Puglia, Italy
Ottolire is located in the heart of the green hills of Itria Valley in Puglia, a region of South Italy warmed by the sun and bathed by crystal clear sea, in a fairy-tale landscape made up of immense expanses of ancient olive groves and small plots of land cultivated with vineyards, delimited by the characteristic dry stone walls, recently declared Intangible Heritage of Humanity by UNESCO.
Ottolire Resort tells the story of an intense relationship with the proper stone of Itria Valley; a stone that has created dry walls, flagstones, even homes like trulli and cummerse. Ottolire Resort is the story of a family with a strong inclination for the recovery and conservation of stone buildings, typical of Itria Valley. In 1973, Michele (nicknamed “ottolire”) and Vita, little more than eighteen, were literally fascinated by a group of ruined trulli and bought them. With unlimited sacrifices and a lot of work they brought them back to life, taking advantage of the experience of his grandfather and the great-grandfather, both involved in the construction of trulli. Their sons, Erasmo and Antonella, grew here. Forty-five years later, Erasmo and Antonella with Anastasia and Angelo, have brought once again this wonderful place back to life, giving a new sense to Ottolire Resort, also opening the doors of the casedde for a suggestive stay experience where to share the smells of spring, the sounds of summer, the colors of autumn and the silences of winter, in a way that only at Ottolire Resort it can happen.
At Ottolire beauty is at home. In the charm of the cummerse, between the sun that reflects a white place, the guest is reflected in the clear water of the Ottolire swimming pool in full relax and welcomed by the lush green of the grove that surrounds the Resort. It is possible to enjoy a cool aperitif in the shade, enjoy the day reading or indulge in the pleasure of tranquility.
