Antognolla Golf has been named Italy’s Best Golf Club for the second consecutive year at the 2026 Golfers’ Choice Awards, organised by Leading Courses, with players also voting the Umbrian resort Best Hospitality in Italy.
The Golfers’ Choice Awards are determined exclusively by verified golfer reviews, with no judging panels or external influence — making recognition at this level a direct reflection of what players experience on the ground. Antognolla’s double win underlines the consistency with which the resort delivers across every element of the golfer journey, from the quality of the clubhouse and facilities to food and beverage, service standards, and the course itself.
Unlike single‑category accolades, the Best Golf Club distinction captures the complete club experience — every touchpoint along the golfer journey. In addition to the headline award, Antognolla was also rated in the top three for Best Maintenance in Italy, Best Facilities in Italy, Best Value for Money in Italy, Best Surroundings in Italy, and Best Course in Italy.

The venue has also been named Italy’s Best Golf Course three times at the World Golf Awards, and has consistently led golfer‑voted rankings for maintenance, facilities, and overall experience. That sustained record across multiple platforms reflects something beyond a single strong season — it speaks to a culture of excellence that runs through the entire operation.
Designed by renowned architect Robert Trent Jones Jr., Antognolla’s championship course is celebrated for its strategic layout and seamless integration into the surrounding Umbrian landscape, complemented by a clubhouse and hospitality experience which resonates strongly with visiting golfers from Italy and overseas.
Rashid Alabbar, President of Antognolla Golf, said: “To be named Best Golf Club in Italy, based entirely on the opinions of those who visit us, is an incredible honour for everyone at Antognolla.
“These awards reflect the passion, care and attention to detail shown by our entire team every day, across the course, the clubhouse, the restaurant and our guest services. We are incredibly proud that golfers value not just the course itself, but the complete experience we strive to deliver.”
The 2026 Golfers’ Choice Awards further reinforce Antognolla Golf’s growing international profile and its status as one of Europe’s most compelling golf destinations for players seeking outstanding quality, authentic hospitality, and exceptional value.
