Overview

Verdura Resort, a Rocco Forte Hotel, is a luxurious property situated on two kilometres of private, stunning coastline, in south west Sicily. Exceptional facilities are in abundance and include an outstanding spa, kids’ clubs, two 18-hole championship courses as well as many sports academies, run by professional instructors. The spacious accommodation is elegant in style, brimming with modern amenities, plus there’s a tempting choice of on-site restaurants.

The resort is positioned on 230 hectares of pristine Mediterranean coastline, where the one-storey hotel blends seamlessly into the lawns and perfectly manicured golf courses. Although there’ll be little to tear you away from this vast resort – it’s home to three outstanding golf courses, a sprawling spa and picturesque trails that wind their way through the olive trees and orange groves – the historic fishing port of Sciacca is well worth a visit. It’s only ten miles from the hotel and famed for its ceramics, thermal baths and colourful fishing fleet bobbing in the large harbour. Beyond the harbour, the town's castle and upper perimeter of the old city walls are reached on the upper level of Sciacca’s hillside. The ancient sites of Selinunte and Agrigento are a must-see in the region – both are within 30 miles of the hotel – while you can also take tours further afield aboard the resort’s yacht. Destinations include the legendary Spiaggia dei Conigli (Rabbit Beach), reputed to be the most beautiful beach in Italy, on the island of Lampedusa. The closest airport is Palermo Airport, approximately 73 miles away while Catania Airport is 129 miles from the hotel.

The accommodation is luxurious, providing everything you would expect from a five-star resort. Each room has been designed and built to blend beautifully with the landscape using natural materials, while inside, fine muslins are draped over four-poster beds and warm stone flooring is used throughout. Tall, double patio doors flood the rooms with light and lead out onto a sophisticated terrace or balcony boasting uninterrupted views across the stunning Mediterranean Sea and Verdura Golf Course. Two interconnecting Superior Deluxe rooms combine to make up a Family room which can sleep up to four guests. Heavenly super soft king-size beds can be readily twinned if required, plus a concierge is on hand to assist you with any items you might need for your little ones. For those requiring more space, opt for a Junior Suite, which features an elegant sitting area or a Classic Suite offering plenty of outdoor space.
