About this apartment rental
Live a unique experience in this house, unique in its kind, which represents the synthesis of the millennial culture of Sicily. The stone walls, the niches, the furnishings represent the testimony of architectural and artistic styles that coexist and overlap in the same environments. All in the heart of the historic center, a few steps from both Porta Marina and the Spanish walls and from the Duomo and the nightlife of Ortigia.

The owner was very accommodating. It was a great location. Very unique condo. We enjoyed our stay.
10 / 10Outstanding·Oct 2025
Charm and history abound at this property, which was originally part of a church that goes back thousands of years. Mostly stone walls inside, with an inviting outdoor eating area, this property combines comfort and modern-day conveniences into a space that feels almost like a museum. There are a few small quirks with the electrical and the dehumidifying (it tends to stay a bit musty) but, given the age of the property (and the fact that it's Italy) we were not bothered. The location is also excellent. Fifty steps out the front door to the right and you're right in the heart of one of Oritgia's bustling main streets. Fifty steps in the other direction puts you at the marina and a beautiful walk along the water. Our host, Ettore, was super helpful and responsive. Communication with him before, during, and after our stay was excellent. All in all, a wonderful experience for guests who desire charm and uniqueness over the familiar amenities of a common hotel.
8 / 10Excellent·May 2025
Before we arrived we were warmly welcomed by Ettore, he reached out to clearly communicate the arrival and check-in details. He thoroughly walked us through the apartment explaining how everything works. The kitchen was well equipped and the outdoor patio was a great place for cocktails and meals. The location couldn’t have been better. A short walk to the main squares and many, many restaurants to choose from. All were outstanding, we didn’t have a bad meal!We had a car a few days and worked around the ZTL times. When we couldn’t get onto Ortigia we parked at the Marina lot (where all the tour busses parked) and it was a 7 minute walk to the apartment. Just pay via the app or the machine, ignore the guy that looks like a parking attendant, he’s NOT!We definitely would stay again should we return to Ortigia.

The host, Ettore, couldn't have been more helpful. The apartment was stunning and had everything you need. It was quiet and very well situated - lots of restaurants within 3 minutes walk and the sea is just down the road. The nearest beach is under 10 minutes away.
