Cummari Sicily
Cummari® is a boutique experience in Sicily designed for solo female travelers, digital nomads, and creatives seeking inspiration and connection. We host bespoke stays at the Cummari house, annual women’s retreats, and community gatherings - both online and in person.
Historically, “Cummari” is a word steeped in ancient feminine tradition. In Sicilian, it describes a bond of female friendship that feels more like family.

“Cummari provides a sacred space for women who are traveling on their own. I have encountered so many amazing multi-cultural women with one core essence in mind, soul growth and coming together as a community of powerful women.”
— Nicole, Cummari Guest
About Cummari

Founded by an international executive who retired her suitcase, Miche set out to create what she felt the world lacked—something truly made for solo female travelers. Read More.

Cummari is an inclusive environment. Historically women have not always been/felt safe when travelling solo and for this reason we prioritize guests who identify as female. With that being said, all genders and identities are welcomed and are vital to supporting Cummari's vision and existence. Learn more.
