Comfort, style, luxury and an extra element of exclusivity are now even more readily available at Verdura Resort with the addition of 20 new villas to the resort.
Set on the estate's hillside gently sloping down towards our private beach, each villa affords unparalleled panoramic views of the Sicilian coast and Mediterranean while, at the same time, guaranteeing privacy and security.
Ideal for family holidays, the villas have been designed by Olga Polizzi, Director of Design at Rocco Forte Hotels, with architecture inspired by Sicily’s natural beauty and incorporating the characteristic features that the region is known for: traditional beams, flat roofs, external stairs and floor-to-ceiling windows. Arranged over two levels, each offers a different style and features three or four bedrooms, a fully equipped kitchen and light-filled living area spilling out to an ocean-view pool and verdant garden.
Perfect for the whole family, our luxury villas in Sicily are spacious and inviting, all sleeping six, with some able to accommodate up to nine guests. Dine together under the stars, swim in your pool, share drinks in your courtyard, and rest, restored, in your elegant four-poster bed.
Guests can take advantage of an especially tempting introductory offer with a 20-per-cent saving on a stay in any of the three or four bedroom villas.
With no minimum length of stay required, there is a wide array of exclusive services including check-in directly at the villa; exclusive use of bicycles and golf buggies to move freely within the estate; two rounds on the resort's golf courses, dedicated concierge service and a daily breakfast at Buongiorno Restaurant.

Paris is always a good idea. Except, perhaps, when it’s hosting the Olympic Summer Games, and the usual tourist throng looks set to multiply almost prohibitively. Of course, the Games are exciting, but if wading through crowds feels like a marathon effort, try a cultural relay around one of these stunning European cities instead.
The name Bernardo Buontalenti might not mean much to those outside of Florence, but it should. A prestigious Florentine architect and artist favoured by the Medici, he is also widely credited with inventing gelato. This frozen delight is now as synonymous with Italy as pizza and is deeply intertwined with Florence’s heritage. Take a tour of the city’s most celebrated gelaterias, curated by the expert concierge team at Hotel Savoy.
