Luxury Meets Tradition: Dolce&Gabbana’s Summer 2024 At San Domenico Palace, A Four Seasons Hotel

Wednesday, July 10, 2024

Dolce&Gabbana and Four Seasons bring luxury to San Domenico Palace, Taormina, with an exclusive summer 2024 DG Resort takeover and pop-up boutique celebrating Sicilian heritage.

For the summer of 2024, the iconic Dolce&Gabbana brand will once again make its mark at the San Domenico Palace, Taormina, A Four Seasons Hotel. This season will feature the exclusive DG Resort summer takeover and a new pop-up boutique situated in the heart of the historic former monastery, now a premier Four Seasons destination in Sicily.

Situated on Sicily’s west coast, Taormina captivates visitors with its stunning landscapes, crystal-clear seas, and historic landmarks. Since the 18th century, it has been a key stop on the Grand Tour for distinguished travelers. The San Domenico Palace Hotel, established in 1896, quickly became a favorite among royalty, writers, artists, and Hollywood celebrities. Today, under the Four Seasons brand, it remains a beacon of Sicilian hospitality worldwide.

Perched above the Ionian Sea, this charming former monastery will showcase the distinctive blue and white “Blu Mediterraneo” design from Dolce&Gabbana for the summer of 2024. This print, which celebrates the “Fatto a Mano” craftsmanship of southern Italy, will adorn the infinity pool area and terrace, offering guests an authentic taste of Sicilian tradition and culture.

This year’s takeover will also introduce a special pop-up boutique, housed in one of the most evocative areas of the San Domenico, within the ancient sacristy. Here, visitors can explore a curated selection of Dolce&Gabbana fashion and accessories, including exclusive pieces available only at this location.

Gold will dominate the new boutique’s decor, creating a luxurious setting for guests to discover unique Dolce&Gabbana items.
