Eremo della Giubiliana is not merely a hotel with a pool in Sicily: it’s a plunge into history, an experience to be lived slowly.
The resort lies just beyond Ragusa, on the Hyblean Mountains, a few kilometres from the coast with its golden beaches, surrounded by a countryside marked by carob trees and dry-stone walls. On clear days, the horizon stretches all the way to Malta, beyond the Mediterranean.
White-stone walls enclose courtyards and the medieval tower overlooking the countryside. Once a defence against Barbary incursions, today it stands as a symbol of a place that unites history, memory, and silence.
Every space bears the trace of time. The friars’ ancient cells are now rooms — each unique — furnished with pieces from the Nifosì family and details that tell a story worth preserving. You don’t enter a standardized hotel: you enter a home that has kept its memory intact. Life at the Eremo follows simple gestures: a walk along medieval paths, a pause in the shade of carob trees or by the cool of the pool, a dinner born from the products of the Mountains.
Those who remain within the walls live days steeped in quiet; those who venture out find themselves perfectly placed to reach the Baroque and UNESCO sites of the Val di Noto and Magna Graecia. At Eremo della Giubiliana, a holiday is measured by the sensations that linger: the changing light reflected on the stones, the silence broken only by the wind, the rare feeling of inhabiting a place beyond time.
The walls of the Eremo tell the story of the Hyblean Mountains — of Barbary raids, chivalric orders, and rural life — in a weave of memories that makes every stay a journey through the island’s past and present.
In the hills of Sicily, the Parco dei Mulini Eco Resort breathes new life into ancient watermills, transforming them into spaces of sustainable hospitality. An invitation to rediscover time and breath, between nature and memory.
Within the white walls of the Eremo, the pool welcomes guests into an intimate haven, sheltered by the Hyblean countryside. A secluded corner, ideal for resting during the warmest hours of the Sicilian summer.
The Eremo’s services express an idea of hospitality that goes beyond mere lodging: the cuisine passionately interprets Sicilian tradition, the wine cellar reveals small oenological treasures, and the wellness corner pampers you amid the silence and soft lights of the countryside.
