Markets & Piazzas

Feel the magic of Sicily from your charming studio apartment, boasting views over the cobalt sea. Nestled in a small, characteristically Sicilian alley, you can embrace the authentic charm of the island with ease. You’re in the heart of Ortigia, close to the ancient city of Syracuse, where you can spend mornings taking walks along the beach, picking up local citrus fruits at Ortigia Market, and afternoon glasses of wine in bustling Piazza Duomo.

After days on the beach, exploring Ortigia, or venturing further to Syracuse, you’ll love coming back to your bright home. Large patio doors let the natural light sweep in, while giving you a lovely view of the cream and terracotta hues of traditional Sicilian houses nearby. Enjoy a few drinks on the balcony – a zesty gin & tonic garnished with Sicilian citrus is particularly delightful – while the sun dips into the sea. If you’re not spending your evening out and about, your cosy bed is the perfect place to unwind, choosing a film on the smart TV.
