There is a point, on the Hyblean Mountains, where the countryside opens toward the sea. There stands Eremo della Giubiliana — an ancient fortified residence that over the centuries has welcomed monks, knights, and farmers, and that today continues to be a home for those who seek quiet and authenticity.
Its white walls still bear the marks of time: they enclose courtyards, halls, and small monastic cells turned into rooms, filled with the scent of wax and wood.
Walking through the park, one comes across the necropolis: tombs carved into the rock, dating between the 5th and 3rd centuries B.C., the remnants of a distant past that coexist with the daily life of the Eremo.
Today, Eremo della Giubiliana continues to guard its own identity — a place of authenticity and stillness, where hospitality springs from a deep bond with the land and its history.
A stay at Eremo della Giubiliana is not easily forgotten.
Some choose to remain within its white walls, among the scent of carob trees and the silence that belongs only to these places. Even in winter, when the air grows cooler, the Eremo becomes a welcoming refuge.
Others prefer to set out each day to explore the island. The Eremo’s location makes everything within reach: from here, Ragusa Ibla, Noto, Siracusa, and Modica are close at hand, and even Agrigento or Taormina are just a journey away — through a Sicily that changes at every bend. And then, one always returns. To rediscover the stillness of the rooms and the warmth of a familial welcome.
The rooms, suites, and villa of the Eremo offer spacious, refined interiors — stone floors, period furnishings, and modern comforts. Each space is distinct, welcoming, and hushed, designed for a peaceful stay in the Hyblean countryside.
In the quiet, secluded spaces of the Asphodelus wellness area, far from the pulse of everyday life, massages and treatments unfold — combining traditional techniques and natural products from the land. Essential oils, Mediterranean herbs, and the care of our therapists guide each session along a path of relaxation and balance.
A deeply restorative experience, steeped in the stone and light of the Hyblean Mountains, where body and mind find harmony anew.
