About this apartment rental
Apartment with sea view in Syracuse.
The apartment Aretusa with a terrace is located on the second floor of a building without an elevator and is on two levels.
A hallway leads to a corridor where the bathroom with shower and hairdryer, the laundry room, and the sleeping area are located. The sleeping area consists of a queen-sized bed and a bedroom with two single beds.
Going up to the second level, there is a small hallway with a desk placed under a window from which you can enjoy the sea view. From here there is access to the kitchen, equipped with all amenities and utensils necessary for preparing meals, and access to a small terrace equipped with an outdoor sink. From the living room, furnished with two leather armchairs, there is access to a second, larger terrace equipped with outdoor furniture, such as a small table, sofas and armchairs, and an outdoor sink.
and armchairs and a covered pergola. From this terrace, you can enjoy the view of the Arethusa spring and the large port.
*The apartment is located in the ZTL (limited traffic zone) area, therefore we suggest leaving the car in one of the nearby parkings and enjoying the old town on foot.
*Upon arrival or a few days before arrival it may be required to pay a tourist tax, which varies according to local regulations. You will find your reservation details within the Guest Area of Wonderful Italy.
For lovers of relaxation and the sea, eastern Sicily and the area surrounding Syracuse offer everything one could wish for. Starting from the ancient Greek city and heading south, the best-equipped and most beautiful beaches to explore are Minareto, Fanusa, Arenella, and Fontane Bianche, whose name derives from the natural freshwater springs and the white color of the sand. On the island of Ortigia, you will also find equipped solariums (Zefiro and Nettuno) and a small free beach called Cala Rossa. Further south, some 30 km away, we find some beautiful unspoiled and inaccessible beaches, including Calamosche, Vendicari with its Natural Fauna Oasis, and the beautiful San Lorenzo. For culture enthusiasts, the Greek theatre of Syracuse and the entire archaeological park with the Ear of Dionysius, a cave carved into the limestone in the shape of a human ear, the Paolo Orsi museum, and the Latomie dei Cappuccini, as well as Ortigia itself with its historical and cultural beauty as well as its landscape, are worth a visit. Not to be overlooked is Noto, the seafront with the tuna fishery of Avola, and finally the seaside village of Marzamemi. In short, Sicily is a land to explore and its natural and cultural beauties are treasures to fill your eyes with.
The airport of Catania Fontanarossa is about 60 kms far away, while Comiso “Pio La Torre” airport is 110 kms far. The train station of Siracusa is 1 km away from Ortigia, as well as the inter bus station connected with the airports.

I booked this place with the blind optimism of someone who’s never read a review and believes in the power of “charm.” Spoiler alert: I was wrong. This apartment has the emotional warmth of a tax office and the structural integrity of cardboard.Let’s start with the good: the location is fantastic and the layout with two terraces is super cool. Also, shoutout to Olga from Wonderful Italy—she was the one shining light in this dark VRBO fever dream. Helpful, kind, responsive. Truly didn’t deserve to be managing what I can only describe as a a place where furniture goes to die.Now… the apartment itself. Imagine IKEA furniture left outside during a storm, then dragged into a room and lit with flickering prison lighting. The kitchen was stocked with the absolute minimum. The shower? A gentle misting. Occasionally, the bathroom released an odor that could summon ancient demons.Some of the towels and bed linens had already lived rich, full lives. One of the comforters had, uh… been through things. To their credit, Wonderful Italy did send cleaners back immediately.Overall, this place could be amazing with a little love, a lot of bleach, paint and maybe an interior designer who isn’t legally blind.
