For relaxation and sea lovers, Eastern Sicily and the surroundings of Siracusa are the perfect choice. Leaving the ancient Greek city and going toward the south, the best equipped beaches worth of a visit are Minareto, Fanusa, Arenella and Fontane Bianche, whose name is due to the natural sweet spring water and to the unique white sand. Then, In the island of Ortigia there are some equipped solariums (Zefiro and Nettuno), as well as the free beach of Cala Rossa. Going further south, about 30 km far away from Siracusa, there are amazing and wild beaches: Calamosche, Vendicari with its Wildlife Park and the precious San Lorenzo. For those looking for cultural and historical sites, it is recommended to visit Teatro Greco and its archeological site with the famous Orecchio di Dionisio (a limestone cave shaped as a human ear), the Museum Paolo Orsi, then the Latomie dei Cappuccini, and finally the island of Ortigia with its natural and historic eye-catching landscapes. Finally, our guests should visit the town of Noto, the seafront of Tonnara di Avola and the fisherman village of Marzamemi. Sicily is beautiful, a wild land with a millennial history impossible to forget at first glance, that will take a special space in your heart.
Catania Fontanarossa airport is an hour drive from the apartment. The train station is very close to the bus terminal with routes to and from the airport and 25 minutes walk from the accommodation.

Beautiful Ortigia
The view from the apartment is stunning and the furniture is very comfortable and clean. The plumbing is old as part of being in an old building.

Beautiful view
Beautiful place with incredible views! Loved our stay. We fell in love with Ortigia while staying here. One small note: because it had central air con, a couple of the rooms didn’t cool completely which meant we needed to use a small fan overnight. Otherwise the perfect accom.

Beautiful ocean view
Very nice apartment with amazing sea view. Well furnished, beds fairly comfortable but a little on the hard side. Location is excellent for exploring the island on foot. The place was clean except for the floors. Highly recommended.

Ortigia
Great location. Everything close by. Apartment fit our needs. We went out to eat for all meals. If you are planning to cook, not much in the way pots and pans. Elevator a nice feature.

Great location and amazing view
Overall, this apartment is very nice. The views are phenomenal and you feel almost like you are on a boat looking out over the water.
It is spacious and comfortable for 2 couples, even though the bathroom for the second bedroom is down the hall. We liked being on the south end of the island where it is quieter. The island is small enough that it was easy walking to everywhere.
The listing is accurate and the photos show what it looks like well. The only thing unpleasant surprise was the lack of water pressure. There was very little water pressure, making showers difficult. One guest with thick hair found it impossible to wash her hair.

This is a beautiful apartment.
We were very happy with this apartment. It is spacious and has amazing views. There is privacy and it is quiet for the most part. We loved being in the apartment. Ortigia is really interesting with many good restaurants and shops. It is a walking city which is ideal for us. Driving to the apartment is an adventure. Parking is a challenge. There isn't a good explanation of the parking situation until you meet someone at the aprtment for checkin in. Overall a teriffic place to stay.

Fabulous Ortigia
Excellent location, beautiful ocean view.
Very minimal cooking accommodations in the apartment. No plates? No glasses? Really didn’t matter that much since we eat out at the near by fantastic restaurants.
