A Journey Inward, Inspired by Monastic Life

Introduction

Eremito is a mystical sanctuary located in the remote Umbrian valleys, embodying the ancient spirit of monasteries. Crafted to honor the authentic principles of hermitage life, Eremito is ideal for those seeking peace and quiet to find inner balance.

 

The result of four years of dedicated work and a journey of self-discovery, Eremito captures the luxury of simplicity. With architecture reminiscent of 14th-century hermitages, the resort radiates serenity and invites guests to reconnect. It’s not an ashram, it’s not a monastery—it’s a new way to digitally detox and find inner peace.

Wellness Options:

You enter Eremito almost through a tunnel—a symbol of your own inner struggle and the journey to find answers and the light beyond. Gregorian chants and imagery of the Catholic faith are present throughout the property.

Guests are invited to join the staff in morning meditation and prayer, mostly in Italian—reading scriptures of different faiths and spirituality. Each day, there is an easy yoga class to join, or guests can start the day with a hike on the vast private property.

Eremito encourages a digital detox—there is no internet connection, and the use of cellphones is kept to a minimum. It’s a journey inward, with almost no stimulation of your nervous system. Eremito’s wellness philosophy emphasizes reconnection with nature and oneself, fostering a holistic retreat for personal rejuvenation.

Food

Eremito’s culinary experience reflects the simplicity and authenticity of monastic traditions. Meals are served in the peaceful Refectory. A highlight is the silent dinner, where guests are encouraged to enjoy their meals without spoken words. A beautifully lit dining hall invites guests into a communal dining experience, focusing on the food and the act of eating—fostering mindfulness and presence in the moment.

Meals are vegetarian and simple, emphasizing fresh, seasonal produce grown organically in their garden or sourced from local suppliers. Homemade bread, pasta, jams, and cakes add to the wholesome dining experience. In winter, guests dine by a stone fireplace, while in warmer months, meals are enjoyed outdoors, surrounded by nature.

Eremito’s commitment to sustainability extends to its kitchen, where waste is minimized, and the use of plastic is reduced through eco-friendly practices like refillable containers and reverse osmosis for water.

Location

Eremito is located in a secluded and remote area in the picturesque Umbrian valleys of Italy. The resort is easily accessible from major cities such as Rome and Florence. By car, a 4-wheel drive is recommended—make sure to check in with the hotel about any road closures due to weather conditions.

For those arriving by train, the closest station is Fabro-Ficulle, where shuttle services can be arranged for transport to the resort.
