Hotel

A mid-nineteenth century country house surrounded by the intense scents of the Sicilian Garden, the Country Boutique Hotel Luna del Raccolto welcomes its guests with the warmth of authentic Sicilian hospitality. A refined environment where modernity and innovation go hand in hand with sustainability and respect for the environment. The first Green Luxury hotel in Italy where you can spend moments of true relaxation, in the shade of the fruit trees or in the Jacuzzi, sipping an aperitif and enjoying the breathtaking scenery. 

The All-Inclusive formula for an authentic experience and a conscious approach, as in a house where everything is available: the pantry with freshly picked fruit and snacks prepared with products from the garden at 0 km. But also the possibility of picking what you want directly from the trees or from the garden, in respect and harmony with nature and what it gives us as a gift.  

At the heart of the philosophy of the Luna del Raccolto is human health and respect for the environment, with the aim of being the custodians of the natural heritage in which it is immersed, preserving it for future generations. The use of non-harmful materials and resources, air quality and constant sanitation, reduced water consumption, renewable sources and energy efficiency: these are just some of the measures adopted on the basis of the guidelines for LEED certification by the U.S. Green Building Council (USGBC), for which the hotel is in the process of obtaining Platinum certification, the highest level of recognition.

Rooms

Elegant rooms, refined environments with warm and embracing colours recall the typical welcome of Sicilian houses. The Country Boutique Hotel Luna del Raccolto offers the most modern and at the same time sustainable comforts, with particular attention to water and energy saving.

Surrounded by the greenery of the garden, the rooms are distinguished by the beauty of the objects, majolica and furnishings, including the sumptuous headboards above the beds with ceramic fruits made by a local artist.

The rooms are equipped with a home automation system, and the Deluxe and Suite have a terrace and private Jacuzzi.

Wellness

For relaxation and body care at the Country Boutique Hotel Luna del Raccolto there are various treatments available, some of which are closely linked to the territory.

The Biosauna, thanks to the purifying action of the heat at medium temperature, the dried herbs and hay, regenerates and relaxes giving an immediate sensation of relaxation.

For the care and beauty of the skin, products based on Aloe Arborescens are used, a variety of Aloe Vera with multiple properties, coming from the important cultivations in the area of Valderice, by the sea.

From the nearby salt pans of Trapani comes salt, rich in trace elements such as magnesium and potassium, which is used as a natural scrub for skin care and the treatment of rheumatism and joint pain.

From the terroir of the area rich in vines, an elixir of youth made from grape skin and juice for wine treatments, a concentrate of vitamins and antioxidants to combat the signs of ageing.

Sensory journeys to discover the flavours of Sicily, the authenticity and taste of the cuisine of the past while respecting tradition. A simple cuisine where the freshness of freshly harvested garden produce is enhanced by the refined and expert hands of the chefs of the Country Boutique Hotel Luna del Raccolto. The conviviality and welcome of a home, the familiarity of a place to be lived in a spontaneous and shared way, like gathering around the barbecue waiting to taste the dishes while sipping a glass of wine.

Services and activities

The Country Boutique Hotel Luna del Raccolto pays special attention to its guests by creating relaxing atmospheres in contact with nature.
