Golf holidays in the Italian Islands

On Sardinia, the Championship Course at Is Molas Golf Resort is a four-time host of the Italian Open, with 27-holes of golf offering beautiful views over the stunning Sardinian coastline. Ian Poulter won his first European Tour event here back in 2000 with this 7,021-yard, Par 72 golf course a tough test for those choosing to play from the back tees!

The Verdura Golf & Spa Resort on Sicily is part of the European Tour’s portfolio of properties and due to recent renovations is currently offering a composite course made up from the most testing holes from both the Verdura Links and Verdura Shore, similar to the routing played by professionals during the Sicilian Open.

The resort also offers an additional 9-holes for those looking to add a few extra holes, as well as practice range facilities and a full Performance Institute in their Academy for those looking to really work on their game! Elsewhere on Sicily, the Monasteri Golf Resort and Il Picciolo Etna Golf Resort & Spa also offer incredible options for a golfing holiday. With their on-site golf courses, and luxurious accommodation offerings – there’s no need to leave the resort. However, those that do want to venture out will find easy access to the world-famous Mount Etna from the Il Picciolo Resort, with the Monasteri Golf Resort just a short hop from the ancient city of Syracuse.
