Little Gem No. 100 | Soulful Apulian Escape

Tucked away in the serene countryside of Ostuni, Trullo Luceri is the embodiment of simplicity, design, and soulful food. Created by the Luceri brothers, Luca and Fabio, the property reflects their shared passion for hospitality, nature, and creativity. Fabio, a gastronome, curates culinary experiences that celebrate the Apulian land with heart and innovation, while Luca ensures the design and flow of the spaces are seamless and inviting.

"Luceri is a place to slow down and reconnect with ourselves, with the land, and with the joy of sharing food and time together."

Designed by Opus Atelier and curated by EFFE Studio, Trullo Luceri is where local craftsmanship meets bold minimalism, offering a retreat that balances beauty, comfort, and a deep sense of place.

The Space

Trullo Luceri is composed of two distinct stays—the Trullo and the Lamia—and a central outdoor area. The spaces are thoughtfully crafted with minimal, handcrafted details, creating a calm and luminous environment where guests can fully relax and reconnect.

The property comfortably accommodates up to 5 guests (4 adults + 1–2 children), with flexible arrangements including sofa beds and private bathrooms.

Bedrooms

The Trullo: Main bedroom with private bathroom, plus a cozy living room with a sofa bed (suitable for one adult or two children). The bedroom and living room are connected yet separated for privacy.

The Lamia: An additional private bedroom with en-suite bathroom, ideal for two guests seeking quiet and tranquility.

Every bedroom is designed with clean lines, natural fabrics, and a quiet sense of harmony, allowing the light and landscape of Puglia to flow through.

Outdoor Area

At the heart of the house is the outdoors, where life naturally slows down and moments are shared. Imagine preparing a meal together in the fully equipped kitchen, then gathering under the warm Apulian sky to enjoy it at the long dining table, laughter and conversation flowing freely. The beautifully designed pool invites you for a refreshing swim, a leisurely sunbathe, or an aperitivo as the golden light of the evening settles over the landscape. Surrounding the space, the gardens stretch gently into the countryside, a quiet, fragrant backdrop that encourages lingering, connection, and the kind of memories that stay with you long after you leave.

Location: Ostuni & Surroundings

Luceri is tucked away in Contrada Paradiso, a quiet, soulful corner of the Apulian countryside. Just a short drive brings you to Ostuni or Ceglie Messapica, where winding streets, artisan shops, and colorful markets invite you to linger. Torre Guaceto Nature Reserve is only half an hour away—perfect for a morning walk, a swim, or a moment of calm. The Adriatic beaches are close enough for a sun-drenched afternoon, while the surrounding olive groves and fields make every cycle, stroll, or quiet pause feel like a true escape. Here, the light is warm, the pace slow, and the countryside somehow invites you to breathe, linger, and just be.

What Makes It Special

What I love about Trullo Luceri is how every corner feels considered and personal. The design blends the best of local craftsmanship with a quiet, modern minimalism that makes the space feel both timeless and effortless. It’s really a family story—Luca and Fabio have poured their vision of light, warmth, and genuine hospitality into every detail. And then there’s the food: they craft these small, joyful culinary experiences that celebrate Apulian flavors and whatever’s in season, making every meal feel like a moment to savor. The whole place has this calm, private energy where you can just slow down and reconnect.
