01 · In a sentence

Borgo degli Ulivi in Palazzolo Acreide, open JuneOctober.

Borgo degli Ulivi operates as a working hotel on a 12-hectare olive estate in southeastern Sicily, meaning your guest list can stay steps from ceremony and reception venues.

The property's agricultural setting eliminates the logistics nightmare of shuttling 80+ people between locations.

Stone buildings, centuries-old olive groves, and on-site dining create genuine operational efficiency wrapped in authentic Sicilian countryside.

Such a great place! The people are very friendly and nice, the house was fantastic for our family, the Borgo is truly beautiful and the location was great, close to all Barok cities and beaches. Would recommend!
