Rocco Forte Hotels Expands Into Real Estate

Rocco Forte Hotels announces Rocco Forte Private Villas, the first branded residences in Sicily. These exclusive villas, available for purchase, epitomize contemporary Sicilian living. 


Nestled along Sicily's picturesque coastline, the Rocco Forte Private Villas consist of three to seven bedrooms, designed by the renowned Italian architecture firm, ASA Studio Albanese in collaboration with Olga Polizzi, Director of Design for Rocco Forte Hotels. The architecture is contemporary and new, but its roots are firmly placed in the traditions of the island. Embracing the allure of Sicily's natural wonders, each villa showcases floor-to-ceiling windows, serene open-air living spaces with infinity pools and furnished terraces creating a seamless connection with the surrounding environment. Spread across two floors, the residences feature an abundance of space, privacy, and direct access to the exceptional facilities of Verdura Resort.


Perched atop a verdant panoramic hill, the meticulously crafted villas are designed to be enjoyed during Sicily's long summers, as well as the milder spring and autumn seasons. With lush gardens and generous plot sizes spanning up to 765 m2, residents will be treated to breath-taking vistas of the Mediterranean Sea, the acclaimed 18-hole Kyle Phillips golf course, and the enchanting valleys of olive groves, which define Sicily's landscape. 

All the amenities of Verdura Resort will be available to the residents and include two championship golf courses, six restaurants by chef and Creative Director of Food for Rocco Forte Hotels, Fulvio Pierangelini, along with numerous tennis and padel courts, water sports activities, kids' clubs, infinity pools, and an award-winning spa. The expansive spa features an indoor pool, Thalassotherapy pools, yoga rooms, and a well-equipped gym. 


Residents have an array of captivating destinations to explore. From the Valley of the Temples near the town of Agrigento, with its extraordinary ancient Greek architecture, to the rich, intricate Roman mosaics at Villa Romana del Casale. Discover the allure of Sciacca, founded by the Greeks in the fifth century BC as a thermal resort for nearby Selinunte, adorned with remarkable sixteenth-century ramparts and Norman churches. Delve into the archaeological wonders of Agrigento Templi, housing the magnificent fifth-century BC Temples of Concordia and Juno.


Upon purchase of a Rocco Forte Private Villa, owners gain an unprecedented advantage—an opportunity to revel in the exceptional services and world-class amenities of Verdura Resort. As part of Rocco Forte Hotels' Rental Management Program, owners can expect a return on investment, adding another layer of value to their acquisition.



Commenting on the residential Villas, Sir Rocco, CEO & Chairman of Rocco Forte Hotel said: “The launch of our first branded residences in Sicily is an exciting expansion for Rocco Forte Hotels into the real estate market. We are proud to offer this unique opportunity, allowing our residents to immerse themselves in the essence of Sicily while enjoying the outstanding facilities at Verdura Resort and the service we have become renowned for.”


The Villas are currently listed for sale starting from €2.95 million up to €10 million.
