Summer really begins when the last bell rings

In Italy, summer has a special beginning: it coincides with the closure of schools. It is a long-awaited, almost ritual moment, which marks the end of morning races, homework, and flying picnics. For our kids - and for the families - it's the beginning of three months of freedom and carefree.
An all-Italian tradition, almost unique in the world: while in other countries the summer holidays last a few weeks, here we really live the summer. And we, like every year, welcome this new season by reopening our terrace facing the sea.
The Lounge Bar reopens with the return of Alfonso

Summer is back... and so is Alfonso, our beloved bartender! Already the protagonist of last season, Alfonso is ready to surprise again with his professionalism and his original creations. From fresh cocktails for the aperitif to the most refined mixes for after dinner, the Lounge Bar counter is the perfect meeting point for those looking for taste, relaxation and beauty.
A whole new terrace: homemade pizzeria and fryer
Great news of the summer of 2025: our rooftop is renewed with a formula entirely dedicated to the pizzeria and the homemade fryer.
A simple but well-kept menu, in which each dish tells our love for authentic cuisine:
Homemade meatballs and croquettes
Light and fragrant frying
Pizzas with selected and seasonal ingredients
All prepared with the highest quality raw materials, favoring local products and short supply chains. Because we believe that summer tastes better if it tastes like the territory.
Proximity tourism: rediscover Puglia
In recent years we have rediscovered the beauty of nearby things. Proximity tourism is not just a practical choice: it is an act of love for one's own land.
Puglia, with its sea, its cuisine and its hospitality, is the perfect place to enjoy the holidays without going far. And we are here, ready to welcome all those who decide to stay or return "home", with the usual smile and warmth.
We are waiting for you on the terrace
Whether for a toast at sunset, a dinner in company or an evening under the stars, our terrace is ready to give you unforgettable moments.
Book your table or visit us: Alfonso is waiting for you at the counter and we are ready to make you live a summer made of flavors, relaxation and beauty.
