Sciacca, Sicily – Verdura Resort has officially opened its new clubhouse, strategically positioned between its renowned West Shore and East Links championship golf courses. This elegant addition is set to further elevate Verdura Resort’s stature as one of Europe’s premier luxury golf destinations, enhancing the overall guest experience.

Inside, the clubhouse is meticulously decorated, featuring vintage golf posters, carefully curated memorabilia, and ball-shaped furnishings. The warm, rich wood paneling adds an inviting atmosphere, complemented by deep green tones, plush leather seating, and mosaic flooring.
