Artemisia is housed in a small converted farmhouse in the rural outskirts of the UNESCO World Heritage town of Ragusa. More affordable than places closer to town, the upper-middle-range property has a beautiful, clean pool and immaculate, comfortable, spacious rooms with personal touches such as fresh fruit and flowers. An apartment-style room has a kitchen and two floors with lots of space. Fresh, free breakfast and coffee and tea are provided daily, but the nearest restaurant is a five-minute drive away.

A former palazzo built after the earthquake of 1693 and transformed into a small hotel three centuries later, this property has plenty of opulence balanced with modern, stylish touches. The luxurious amenities include two restaurants and a spa, and each of the 12 flower-themed guestrooms has antique furnishings and its own unique look. While there are plenty of attractions near the hotel, including the Piazza San Giovanni, it’s a bit of a steep hike to the old city.

For travelers who really want to get away from the action and stay in the natural, arid landscape of southern Sicily, the Relais Parco Cavalonga is a great choice. Surrounded by olive and carob trees, the hotel has two lovely outdoor pools, a sunny, peaceful patio, and a delicious breakfast buffet. Because dinner is not served on a nightly basis, only those staying in apartments with kitchens can avoid the 20-minute drive to the nearest restaurant. Rooms are airy and contemporary, if a bit bare. Beautiful, peaceful, and quiet as the property is, it is rather isolated and not as affordable as say, Artemisia Resort on the outskirts of Ragusa.
