Refreshers Bridge

Refreshers Bridge is aimed at social bridge players, those who wish to improve their bidding and play, or those who simply want a friendly holiday with a smaller size group. We do not award EBU master points with these holidays, so the more hardened duplicate bridge players do not attend, therefore leading to a more social and easy-going atmosphere.

Refreshers Bridge in Sicily, Acacia Marina Resort

The 4-star Acacia Marina Hotel stands in a stunning tropical garden and during our stay First for Bridge guests will have almost exclusive use of the facilities, which include a lovely outdoor pool with three large hot tubs on its terraces, tennis courts, sauna, gym and a small spa. We have a large bridge room with unlimited table space that is close to the airy lounge and bar, where guests can relax before and after bridge sessions.

We have contracted both Building A and the brand new Palace Acacia building, which opened in May 2019, for our guests.

By doing this we have the best positioned rooms that all have lift access, and the majority of rooms are recently refurbished. The new rooms in the Palace Acacia Building are all superior and brand new, beautifully furnished and spacious - well worth the upgrade. The Palace Acacia building will be sold as adult only by the hotel.

Included to enhance your holiday:

This incredible region of Sicily is so rich in history that it boasts no less than eight UNESCO sites directly within its borders. For this reason we simply had to INCLUDE three fabulous excursions in our holiday package to allow you to visit five of them and have them brought to life by our knowledgeable guides.

  • Visit Siracusa, the former capital of Magna Grecia, and Noto, Sicily’s capital of Baroque
  • Enjoy a half day tour to Ragusa Ibla and the beautiful Venetian Donnafugata Castle 
  • Visit to Modica & Scicli
