Hotel Domus
Aurea has been reborn again in the Valley of the Temples after an
accurate restoration that has brought this villa of the XVIII century to
the ancient splendour of such long time ago, when this "casa" was a
meeting Place for the local nobility and travellers, who in the Grand
Tour went by in order to stay in the mythical Valley, searching among
the ancient ruins of the myth of Gods and heroes of Magna Grecia. With
today’s renewals and the transformation into hotel they have tried to
recreate the charm "d'antan", taking back the building to that discreet
allure, that Sicilian aristocracy loved to give to the country house,
which just having stylistic preciosities, didn't subside to un-useful
baroquisme, which were so dear to the Spanish culture, that during the
XVIIth and XVIIIth centuries raged in all streets of Sicily. The Hotel
Domus Aurea opens in romantic scenery, ideal for those travellers who
search for these historic residences and not for icy hotels... Here the
respect for guests is equal to that offered to a dear friend who came
from far away countries, giving as a prize to the traveller a mixture of
sensation that only the unrepeatable uniqueness of a place like Domus
Aurea can offer.
The recently opened restaurant "IL Giardino" offers tipical sicilian
food in a cosy atmosphere where in summer time, guests can have dinner
on the terrace with the Temples' hill view lighting.
Las but not least, guests may enjoy from June 15 to September 15 a
private beach with facilities just 500 Mts. away. |
