“Beautiful resort”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed November 8, 2012

I stayed there in Oct. 25th for 3 nights.......it was amazing! I had to remind myself when I looked out at the ocean that it wasn't Hawaii. The food and wine is excellent and the rooms are quite large. It's the kind of place to go to when you have been to Italy multiple times and are looking for something new and different. The golf course and spa are extraordinary. You can do a day trip to Agrigento. We hired a car and guide to Palermo for the day. It was well worth it and a wonderful day.....olive groves and grapes being picked on the way.....beautiful scenery.
I would go there again and use it as a base and do other day trips between relaxing at the infinity pool!

“Fabulous, sporty, family resort in the warmth of southern Italy”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed November 5, 2012 via mobile

Verdura is tucked away on its own peninsula, only an hour from Palermo airport. It offers an array of super activities to keep the whole family happy. From tots to teens kids clubs. From brilliantly organised golf and tennis clubs to an array of water sports. And a wonderful spa full of pampering treatments. There are 3 restaurants which provides a good amount of variety, but you may find you want more variety after a weeks stay so a trip to the local restaurants is also a good idea. The a la carte in the hotel can make it pricey so a half or full board option is the best.

“GREAT FAMILY GOLF AND SPA RESORT”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed October 25, 2012

We spent one week here with our children and grandchildren and
everybody enjoyed the holidays in this beautiful resort. Rooms are
very well furnished, large bathroom and dressing. All the staff is
extremely friendly and helpful. Very good breakfastbuffet and all
the 3 restaurants are ok but the one we preferred was the Amare
beach-side restaurant, serving excellent fresh fish, grilled. The
2 18 hole golf courses are in very good shape and even the
9 hole compact course is great fun. Free Yoga and Stretchlessons
and many more activities are offered every day. Spa facilities are
outstanding. A real five star resort.

“Nice location, but disappointing for the price”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed October 7, 2012

The grounds of the Verdura Spa and Golf resort are open, right at the sea, and seemingly always very windy. The resort is perfect if you want to enjoy sports such as golf, tennis, gym, watersports etc. Given the wind and closeness to the sea, I would strongly recommend that you go in the hot months of the year in order to enjoy it.

When we went early September, the resort was full of families with children, and felt more like a Robinson Club which was disappointing given the positioning of the resort. The Verdura provides bicycles to get around which is fun, and allow you to get to all the restaurants quite easily from the room. Be warned that restaurants outside the resort are a min.15km drive.

The rooms are spacious, but quite worn and the design is hideous in my view. It is not as luxurious as expected and therefore overpriced.

We liked the pool area and the beach. But overall, found the resort disappointing and soulless.
