The Best Hotels in Sicily | Condé Nast Traveler

"Perched on Etna’s fertile slopes and occupying a renovated 17th-century monastery, Monaci delle Terre Nere is a stylish agriturismo where faded grandeur meets contemporary design across 60 acres of olive groves, apricot trees, herb gardens, and vines. The estate’s 27 rooms, barns, and villas look out over bucolic rolling hills and the sea, and the destination restaurant Locanda Nerello lets superb farm ingredients shine—scabbardfish ragout, ancient zucchini parmesan—while breakfasts feature fresh eggs sprinkled with wildflowers and black bee honey on homemade ancient-grain bread; afternoons invite slow jazz, volcanic pools, and long, wine-balanced siestas." - Rosalyn Wikeley
