I Monasteri Golf & Spa

I Monasteri Golf Resort occupies the grounds of a former monastery near Siracusa on Sicily's southeastern coast, surrounded by a vast plantation of orange, mandarin, and lemon trees alongside the prickly pear cactus typical of the Sicilian countryside. The 18-hole course, par 71, was designed by David and Vincenzo Mezzacane and stretches to 6,520 metres across 86 hectares of fragrant, sun-drenched terrain. Five sets of tees per hole make the layout accessible to a broad range of players while retaining genuine strategic interest for accomplished golfers. Bunkers and the natural undulation of the land shape approach angles and demand careful decision-making into the greens. The resort's hotel and spa, now operating under the Radisson Individuals umbrella, make I Monasteri a complete package for golfers seeking a base in the culturally rich Syracuse province, within easy reach of the UNESCO-listed old city.
