This 25-acre resort smack-dab in Sicily's western countryside has grounds worthy of Las Vegas: three pools, gardens with gazebos and fountains, a full-service spa, and vast marble-columned public spaces. Each of the 91 rooms tops 500 square feet and has Aubusson carpets, antique prints of Sicily, and swanky bathrooms. The restaurant, Dubbesi, goes beyond what you might expect in the Sicilian hinterlands.
When to go: Sicily has festivals and attractions year-round, and a temperate climate—except in August, which can be torrid.
Which room to book: If you can't ante up for one of the two penthouse suites with 7,500-square-foot terraces and a private pool, get the Costanza junior suite or the frescoed No. 214 (doubles, $404–$488).
