OVERVIEW

A SHELTER IMMERSED IN NATURE AND SILENCE, BUT CLOSE TO EVERYTHING.

A 5-star hotel in the secluded Siracusa outback, Borgo di Luce I Monasteri is housed in a villa that was once a Benedictine monastery, then the home of noble families, including the Catalans and the barons of Melilli.

Subsequently converted into an accommodation facility, it is today a refined refuge on the outskirts of Syracuse, a city with a thousand-year history, surrounded by green citrus groves, palm trees, carobs and olive trees, with a 18 hole par 71 golf course, large SPA, indoor and outdoor pools, 102 rooms equipped with every comfort overlooking the Sicilian countryside.

THE “WHITE CITY” Defined the “White City” for its sandstone that the locals call “giuggiulena”, Syracuse is the lady of the south seas. Considered one of the most powerful metropolises in the ancient world, today it is a beautiful town that carries within it the traces of a thousand-year history.

Declared by UNESCO as a World Heritage Site in 2005, this city has an ancient history. It was founded in the eighth century BC from a group of Greek colonists coming from Corinth, over the centuries it has been a hub of political and social life, crossed by great thinkers. From Plato, who visited it 3 times, he tried to establish the ideal State of the Republic here, to Archimedes for whom it was his native land, passing through Cicero and the Apostle Paul, to become the capital of the Byzantine Empire in the 6th century.
