Locanda Gulfi

Perched in the rolling vineyards above Chiaramonte Gulfi in Ragusa’s Val di Noto, Locanda Gulfi sits about 25 km from Ragusa and 4 km from the town center. Close-by highlights include the Greek Theatre, the Archaeological Park of Neapolis and a Roman amphitheatre; the Oil Museum, Dirillo Lake and Castle of Naselli d'Aragona are a short drive away.

Stay in a converted cellar (Corpo Cantina) or the nearby Casa Campo with a Dammuso outbuilding. Rooms (7 in the cellar plus a Dammuso and depandance) feature handcrafted wooden furniture, minibars, flat‑screen TVs and private showers — some with bidets. Select rooms have Wi‑Fi and air conditioning; a Classic room is adapted for guests with reduced mobility. Expect vine-lined views and simple, artisanal décor.

Soak in a seasonal outdoor pool and lounge on the terrace with panoramic vineyard views and sunbeds. The property includes an on-site cellar/winery and a tasting terrace, a poolside bar and a bar/lounge, plus barbecue facilities and free self parking. Pets are welcome; a roundtrip airport shuttle is available for a surcharge. Complimentary buffet breakfast is served daily.

Built for both leisure and meetings: there’s a business center, event facilities and a large tasting/meeting room that can host up to 300 people. Complimentary wireless internet is available in common areas and some rooms, with luggage storage and daily newspapers in the lobby.

Dine at Hosterja Gulfi or the hotel’s other restaurant for regional Sicilian and national gourmet dishes. Menus showcase local flavors and wines produced from the nearby vineyards. Mornings start with a rich continental buffet of sweet and savory local products; drinks are available at the poolside bar and lounge.
