Hotel Description
The Verdura Golf & Spa Resort is currently scheduled to open in 2008.
Rocco Forte Hotels is currently building a €129 million hotel and golf resort on the southern coast of Sicily in a small village called Verdura, near Sciacca, about an hour's drive from the international airport in Palermo and 30 kilometres from Agrigento and the Temple Valley.
The development, involving the restoration of several existing buildings on the site together with new construction, which will reflect the history and character of Sicily and the region, will consist of a 200-room ocean-view hotel, two championship golf courses, a hydrotherapy spa, sports facilities and a relatively large real estate development. The architect is Denton Corker Marshall.
