Arrival and check-in

Tour of the City of Enna

Known as the “navel of Sicily,” Enna holds the title of the highest provincial capital in Italy. This city, a true panoramic viewpoint, offers breathtaking views of the entire Sicilian landscape, encompassing the entire island with a single gaze. A melting pot of history, culture, architecture, and craftsmanship, its streets and squares tell stories ranging from the Greek and Roman eras to medieval and Baroque splendors.

Visit the Rocca di Cerere, the site of the ancient sanctuary dedicated to Demeter and later Ceres. Here, the archaic cult of Kore, daughter of Ceres, who was abducted by Hades at the nearby Lake Pergusa and transported to the Underworld through a legendary opening in the Enna area, was practiced. Having become Persephone, the queen of the underworld, she embodied the eternal cycle of death and rebirth. It was believed that Kore alternated her stay between the Earth and the Underworld every six months, bringing spring with her upon her return.

Admire the Cathedral of Enna, dedicated to Maria Santissima della Visitazione, a national monument and UNESCO heritage site, welcoming you with its imposing architecture and atmosphere.

Arancini Experience with Rosario Umbriaco

Rosario comes from a long tradition of restaurateurs renowned throughout Enna. Like his ancestors, he passes down the tradition of Sicilian rotisserie, becoming an ambassador and Italian excellence in the field. An alchemist, he transforms simple ingredients into true culinary works of art. A breading of ancient Sicilian grains encloses gastronomic treasures: saffron, Piacentinu of Enna, Trapani salt, Ispica carrots, and donkey mortadella. Despite his success, he maintains the small shop where it all began, preserving a homely atmosphere that makes you feel part of Enna’s everyday tradition, simple and powerful. You will be welcomed with a glass of organic Sicilian sparkling wine, then taste different types of the traditional Enna arancino and his famous cannoli.

Free dinner at Tommy’s Wine

A Cozy Place to Taste Emotions, a small, welcoming home lounge, reminiscent of times when important guests were received in a refined atmosphere. At Tommy’s Wine, you can savor the modern taste of vintage with traditional dishes from the Sicilian hinterland, satisfying even the most discerning palates. Enjoy Sicilian, Italian, and international wines for unconventional aperitifs.
