Experience History, Be Part of a Rebirth

Staying at the Antica Corte delle Ninfee means becoming part of a living history that spans centuries.

This residence, originally a convent in the 1400s, was for many years transformed into a carpentry workshop and later abandoned.
Today, it breathes again: after many vicissitudes, it has returned to the hands of our family, and it is a piece of history that is reborn every day, also thanks to your support.

Here, every guest is at the heart of everything.

It is not a hotel, but a family villa, intimate and authentic, with all modern comforts. We welcome every traveler with care and attention, striving to offer authentic experiences and emotions in a unique place, nestled in the historic heart of Trapani, just a few steps from the sea.

The “Antica Corte delle Ninfee” houses the only one historic botanical garden in the center of the city: a small living museum, where centuries-old plants tell ancient stories between pergolas, citrus trees, and poinsettias that have endured for generations.

Staying here also means meeting those who have truly lived this story.

You will have the chance to meet my father, who is 88 today, and listen to the living memory of someone who has seen this place pass through different eras, until its rebirth.

Thank you to those who choose to stay here: your contribution is a precious gesture that helps preserve a corner of history, allowing it to breathe once again, and to build a new future together preserving it.
