Set on the wild, windswept island of Pantelleria, this retreat is shaped by the raw elements of sea, stone, and sky.

On a remote stretch of volcanic land where olive trees and caper fields thrive, Parco dei Sesi spreads across five hectares between the Mediterranean Sea and Pantelleria’s lava-sculpted hills. This agriturismo is anchored by ancient dammusi, traditional stone dwellings that echo the island’s deep connection to nature and history. The landscape holds a raw, magnetic energy—offering a sense of timelessness shaped by wind, stone, and silence.
