Terme & Spa Italia bets on Sciacca with a 90 million relaunch plan

After 15 years of neglect, Terme di Sciacca, in ordinary liquidation, has found a buyer and thus begins the relaunch plan that leverages 90 million euros in public and private resources. In fact, with Terme & Spa Italia, which controls Terme di Saturnia, the project presented will take off, which is based on a long-term industrial vision that focuses on the most precious resource: the thermal water of Sciacca. A unique natural wealth, in terms of mineral characteristics and therapeutic properties, which represents the identity element on which to build the relaunch. The objective is to recover the full functionality of the wells and networks, restoring the spa to its original health-therapeutic vocation, as well as well-being and leisure.

Terme & Spa Italia, led by Massimo Caputi, participated in and won the European tender for the assignment of the Terme di Sciacca. The relaunch project envisages the creation of a true integrated pole, capable of combining health, wellness, and hospitality. Besides the facilities dedicated to thermal medicine, the project includes a Medical & Wellness SPA Terme di Saturnia, a quality accommodation offer, spaces for congresses and events, and a usable thermal park. An articulated ecosystem, designed to expand the target audience and make the destination attractive throughout the year, with special attention to the territory and its inhabitants, who will benefit from advantageous access.

A central element of the intervention is also the recovery and regeneration of the existing heritage and surrounding areas. The buildings, unused for several decades but of great historical and symbolic value, will undergo a major architectural redevelopment, with structural adaptations, seismic improvements, refurbishment of installations and energy efficiency. The aim is not only to reopen, but to restore quality, identity and sustainability to the entire complex. The relaunch of the Sciacca thermal baths will be able to generate new direct employment for about 250 people, activate the tourism and services chain, strengthen the attractiveness of Sicily, and contribute to the seasonal adjustment of flows in the Sciacca area. The spa thus becomes a concrete lever for the economic and social growth of the area, and the planned investment is over 90 million, of which 40 million made available by the Region and 50 million by investors. Terme & Spa Italia, which controls Terme di Saturnia, also has to its credit the management of the famous De Montel , the only spa in Milan, Terme di Chianciano, Terme di Salice, Terme di Sangemini, Monticello Spa and two thermal complexes in Salsomaggiore.
