Launching the New Sicilian Season with a Significant Redesign

Following significant investment, Rocco Forte Hotels' Verdura Resort unveils an impressive makeover by Paolo Moschino and Philip Vergeylen in collaboration with Olga Polizzi.

Rocco Forte Hotels’ Verdura Resort in Sicily has reopened its doors following a full refurbishment of its central building, the beating heart of the hotel. The island’s rich culinary traditions come to life at three new restaurants – L’Osteria, Zagara and Buongiorno – and at the newly launched cocktail bar Scirocco. Another exciting addition is the unveiling of the piazza beside the 16th century Saracen Tower. This lively and bustling space features a new shopping area and is home to Nagori, a restaurant where Japanese and Sicilian flavours meet. Guests can also rediscover Liolà, a Sicilian restaurant that reopens this season with a brand-new look.

“We are thrilled to begin a new chapter in the story of Verdura Resort. The recent renovations really capture the essence of the location and elevate Verdura’s hospitality to new levels offering our guests an entirely new experience. The resort is looking stunning, I am so delighted with the results.” states Sir Rocco Forte, Chairman of Rocco Forte Hotels.

NEW CULINARY OFFERINGS | The Resort’s eight dining outlets celebrate the finest Sicilian flavours, now complemented by several new restaurants serving international cuisine, each embodying the signature style of Rocco Forte Hotels. Curated by Creative Director of Food Fulvio Pierangelini, the hotel’s exceptional gastronomic offering includes Zagara, Buongiorno, Ondina, Amare and Liolà. This season, three new additions – L’Osteria, Scirocco Bar and Nagori – enrich the dining experience, with culinary offerings crafted to delight the most refined and discerning palates.

L’OSTERIA: A MULTIFACETED SPACE | Open from noon to 11pm, L’Osteria is a versatile all-day dining venue serving simple, comforting dishes. The menu features the likes of small cod fish from Sciacca. In homage to traditional osterias, wines are served in carafes, and a daily special is thoughtfully prepared. The Resort’s own vegetable garden provides the osteria with fresh produce each day, highlighting the property’s commitment to sustainability. The restaurant’s simple yet refined design blends natural materials like bamboo with geometric patterns, creating an informal ambience with a cosmopolitan feel. A seafront terrace completes the experience, offering delightful sea vistas extending to the coast of Africa.

SCIROCCO: THE ULTIMATE DESTINATION FOR COCKTAIL LOVERS | Perfect for an aperitivo or an after-dinner drink, Scirocco is the resort’s innovative cocktail bar, a seductive den with a fun and playful design. With its warm wood finishes and terracotta palettes, the bar exudes a warm and sophisticated feel. Hand painted wall motifs by artist Phyllis Claire Smith capture the movement of the Scirocco, an African wind that often blows across the bar’s panoramic terrace The cocktail menu is a tribute to the flavours of Sicily, with drinks prepared using fresh ingredients and aromatic herbs from the Resort’s Verdura Farm.

NAGORI: A NEW CULINARY CONCEPT BY FULVIO PIERANGELINI | Chef Fulvio Pierangelini’s latest gastronomic offering fully embraces the rhythm of the seasons, with dishes marrying western and Far Eastern culinary traditions. The chef’s creations are prepared using the finest local produce, incorporating both raw and cooked ingredients, complemented by greens sourced from the resort’s own vegetable garden. “The mastery, purity, precision, and artistry of Japanese sushi-making combine with fresh fish and seafood from the Mediterranean Sea. Nagori is a story of Japan and Sicily,” explains Chef Pierangelini. Located within the ancient Saracen Tower, the restaurant features a Japanese-style design rooted in the principles of minimalism, and offers both indoor and outdoor seating.

ZAGARA: THE RESORT’S SECRET GARDEN | Providing the perfect setting to host elegant dinners, Zagara’s new design echoes a magical summer night’s garden, with bronze sculptures, lush foliage, stone and wood elements, and climbing plants wrapped around majestic wooden columns. Secluded dining niches located throughout the garden provide an intimate and exclusive ambiance while ensuring plenty of privacy. Exuding the charm of a hidden garden, the restaurant sets the stage for unforgettable evenings, whether enjoyed indoors or by the pool.

THE NEW LOBBY AREA AND L’AGORÁ | As part of the resort’s stunning redesign, the main entrance – masterfully reimagined by Lady Olga Polizzi, Director of Design Rocco Forte Hotels – welcomes guests this season in a luxurious sanctuary of serenity and calm. Sunlight streams through all-glass windows, bathing the space in a golden hue. The area around the Saracen Tower is a gathering place where guests can shop and later take in sunset views over a drink or dinner at Nagori or Liolà. A charming Sicilian trattoria, Liolà features a vibrant new design that celebrates local craftsmanship, with colourful majolica tiles and warm terracotta tones. The restaurant’s fun and vibrant setting makes it the perfect destination for a family meal, with wood-fired pizzas also served here.

Launching the 2025 Season with new Tailored Experiences Dedicated to Sport, Wellness and Destination

The award-winning Rocco Forte Sicilian resort reopens its doors for the 2025 season, offering an array of activities along the stunning Agrigento Coast.

Set within 570 acres of lush grounds, Verdura Resort provides a peaceful oasis where guests can relax and recharge at their own pace. For the 2025 season, a host of exciting new experiences have been introduced to deepen guests’ connection to their surroundings. In addition to treatments at the expansive 4000m2 Irene Forte Spa, guests can take part in a variety of new sporting activities, unique culinary experiences, and personalized itineraries designed to offer a deep immersion into local culture.

EASTER AND SPRING HOLIDAYS | Sicily’s mild spring temperatures make Verdura Resort the ideal destination for a rejuvenating and fun getaway. The resort offers a rich programme of activities, including Easter Egg hunts among centuries-old olive trees, lavish sea-view lunches, and experiences that immerse guests in the island’s age-old traditions. This spring also marks the debut of the resort’s renowned sports academies, offering expert-led sessions in golf, yoga and tennis alongside soccer training with world champion Gianluca Zambrotta.

ACADEMIES WITH THE STARS AND NEW EXPERIENCES FOR TEENS | Young guests can play their favourite sports or try their hand at new activities with qualified coaches and sporting champions. This season, the focus is on teens and wellbeing. Alongside soccer, tennis, basketball, golf, yoga, rhythmic gymnastics and Krav Maga, teenagers can now also take part in skateboarding, chess, frisbee and DJ Academy. The increasingly popular sport of pickleball will also be offered for the first time at the resort. Key dates for 2025 include:

Basketball with Bruno Cerella from 1st to 6th July

Juventus Football Academy from 11th to 17th August

Skateboarding with Italian champion Augustin Aquila from 11th to 17th August.

IRENE FORTE SPA | The award-winning 4000sqm Irene Forte Spa provides the perfect setting to unwind and soothe tired muscles after an invigorating sports session. Among the Spa’s most advanced programmes is Healthy Lifestyle, designed to achieve spiritual, mental and physical balance, with a focus on slimming and detoxifying the body.

DISCOVERING SICILY: ON THE ROAD, ON HORSEBACK OR BY BIKE | Guests can explore the surrounding 3700-acre natural paradise on horseback, by quad or mountain bike, or along scenic walking trails, immersing themselves in Sicily’s rich biodiversity. They can take in the island’s unspoiled landscapes, from the dramatic cliffs of Heraclea Minoa to miles of golden beaches. This season brings new experiences, including a horseback adventure led by a cowgirl who has made Sicily her home, riding through forests and rivers in a lesser-known part of Sicily, where visitors can connect with the locals. The new ‘Pedalling Towards the Myth’ e-bike route takes guests from the resort to the archaeological site of Heraclea Minoa, a place where legend tells of the epic battle between Eryx and Hercules.

As well as morning yoga sessions and picturesque treks through olive groves and orchards, the resort’s popular evening StarSafari returns for the season, offering stargazing experiences led by an experienced astronomer beneath Sicily’s dazzling night sky.

GOLF AND BIODIVERSITY | The Italian Golf Federation has honoured the resort’s multi-award-winning East and West Courses with two prestigious Impegnati nel Verde (INV) awards, recognising excellence in both the Biodiversity and Historical, Artistic and Cultural Heritage categories. These coveted awards recognise the resort’s commitment to environmental sustainability and cultural preservation. The championship courses offer some of the most breathtaking panoramas in the country. Golfers can elevate their game with two exclusive masterclasses, led by the resort’s Golf Development Manager Donato di Ponziano, from 15th to 19th May and 18th to 22nd September.

At the resort’s Kids’ Club, Verdùland, children play and explore through engaging programmes designed to make learning fun. With two specially designed swimming pools, young guests can enjoy a safe and exciting environment created exclusively for them.

Verdura is an oasis, a centre of wellbeing, escapism and indulgence set against backdrop of charming Sicilian villages, ancient Greek and Roman sites and the beautiful, blue Mediterranean Sea.

From its unspoiled sandy coast, undulating vineyards and magnificent cathedrals, the enchanting beauty of western Sicily is unparalleled. Embark on a journey of discovery with Rocco Forte Hotels in Sicily and marvel at the island's thousand souls. Our suggested itinerary starts off in Palermo, Sicily's sensual and vivid capital, and be one of the first to experience Villa Igiea following its grand re-opening. A showstopping property, Villa Igiea is a majestic Grade I-listed palazzo, immortalised in film and literature, that has served as an elite seaside-meets-city oasis for over a century. After a meticulous restoration led by Olga Polizzi and Nicholas Haslam studios, the hotel's interiors recall its former glory and heritage to life. Ten minutes from Palermo's Baroque splendour and bustle,

Villa Igiea celebrates the best that Sicily has to offer - cultural richness, timeless architecture, eclectic gastronomy - whilst overlooking the pristine Tyrrhenian Sea. After two nights, leave the city behind and enjoy a complimentary transfer to Verdura Resort, near Sciacca. Our flagship resort complements Villa Igiea: ultra-sleek with contemporary designs nestled in 230 hectares of centuries-old orchards, olive groves and vineyards, Verdura offers a different take on the island. With two golf courses, a private beach and a 4,000 square meter spa, the hotel emphasizes Sicily's spectacles of nature and is a haven of relaxation. Spend three nights at your leisure, enjoying indulgent spa treatments, organic cuisine by Fulvio Pierangelini and a few rounds of golf. Dine in our ancient olive grove, savour a sunset aperitivo from our sea-view terraces and glide out into the crystal waters of the Mediterranean – paradisiacal.
