Wyndham Hotels & Resorts has launched its second Dolce-branded resort in Italy with the debut of a stunning new property in Sicily, reinforcing its ongoing growth across Europe’s most culturally vibrant regions. Set amid the scenic countryside just outside the historic city of Siracusa, the Dolce by Wyndham Siracusa Monasteri Golf & Spa invites guests to experience an exceptional retreat where ancient heritage harmonizes with contemporary elegance.
This launch stems from a wider development partnership between Wyndham Hotels & Resorts and All in Italia Hotels & Resorts. As part of their long-term vision, the collaboration plans to open 20 new hotels throughout Italy over the next ten years. With the debut of this latest property, Wyndham’s presence in Italy expands to seven hotels across multiple distinctive brands, further reinforcing its strategic growth in the region.
A Historic Destination Reimagined for Modern Travel
The new resort is set amidst lush citrus groves just outside Siracusa, a UNESCO World Heritage Site known for its Greek ruins and baroque architecture. The resort’s grounds carry a remarkable history, having evolved from an ancient Roman villa to a 9th-century monastery, and later into a traditional Sicilian Masseria. Today, these layers of history have been artfully preserved and integrated into the resort’s design, offering guests a one-of-a-kind stay that reflects the depth of Sicilian culture.
With 102 rooms, Dolce by Wyndham Siracusa Monasteri Golf & Spa blends the essence of the past with the expectations of modern travelers. The property’s expansive layout includes a full 18-hole golf course, a serene spa and wellness center, and outdoor spaces filled with orange and lemon trees—perfect for guests seeking relaxation, rejuvenation, and scenic views.
Mediterranean Flavors and Culinary Delights
Dining at the resort reflects Sicily’s bold and colorful culinary heritage. The resort’s restaurant presents a menu built on Mediterranean flavors, local ingredients, and innovative interpretations of regional classics. Guests can expect a gourmet experience that brings together tradition and creativity, making every meal a celebration of Sicilian culture.
Designed for Leisure and Business Alike
Although Dolce by Wyndham Siracusa Monasteri Golf & Spa caters perfectly to leisure guests, it is equally well-suited for business gatherings and group events. The resort offers versatile meeting spaces that can accommodate up to 200 attendees, making it an attractive venue for corporate retreats, seminars, and social functions. Additionally, its elegant ballroom—boasting panoramic views of the surrounding landscape—adds a touch of grandeur to weddings, celebrations, and exclusive private events.
Wyndham’s Multi-Brand Growth in Italy
The new Dolce opening is part of Wyndham’s broader strategy to introduce a diverse range of its brands throughout Italy. In addition to Dolce, the company has successfully launched properties under Wyndham Garden, Ramada, Trademark Collection, and Registry Collection. This brand diversity allows Wyndham to meet the varied needs of international and domestic travelers across different segments.
Since acquiring the Dolce brand in 2015, Wyndham has steadily expanded its reach. Currently, the Dolce portfolio includes 17 properties in Europe and select U.S. destinations. Internationally, the brand has established a presence in Brazil and Vietnam, with further growth underway.
Future Development and European Expansion
In Fredericksburg, Texas, Wyndham is developing another Dolce hotel alongside a winery, which will include 120 rooms and serve as a destination for wine lovers and event-goers alike. This project underscores the brand’s focus on experiential travel that combines luxury hospitality with local appeal.
Across the European continent, Wyndham’s development momentum remains strong. In Switzerland, the upcoming HQ Montreux Hotel & Spa is nearing completion and will join the prestigious Registry Collection. In Germany, the brand is expanding its presence with new Ramada Encore and Super 8 properties currently under construction in both Frankfurt and Berlin. Additionally, Wyndham is planning a high-end, 250-room luxury hotel in Moosburg, Austria, scheduled to open its doors in 2027, further reinforcing the company’s commitment to growth in key European markets.
A Refined Experience in a Timeless Setting
The opening of Dolce by Wyndham Siracusa Monasteri Golf & Spa introduces a refined new gateway for travelers to experience Sicily, blending timeless elegance, rich heritage, and serene leisure. As Wyndham accelerates its growth across Italy and the broader European market, guests can expect more exceptional destinations that seamlessly merge local cultural depth with the trusted quality of international hospitality standards.
