We had a wonderful 5 night stay at the villa. The view of the latomia is incredible and property and garden is well maintained and beautiful. Francesca is welcoming and helpful and we really appreciated that on arrival after a long day and a late night arrival that there were refreshments ready at the apartment. There is a supermarket 1 minutes drive or a short walk. The villa is perfectly situated for a quiet stay within walking distance of many attractions with Ortigia being about a 40 minute walk. However buses and parking is available in few locations if needing transport. Highly recommend.

Un site exceptionnel au cœur d’une latomia. Une vue à couper le souffle. Un jardin calme et ombragé. Une 1/2h à pied d’Ortigia. Francesca est une hôtesse attentionnée. Une adresse remarquable !!!

Oasis in the middle of the town Siracusa
The holiday home is located on a narrow street next to an old quarry in the middle of the city. There is a large spacious garden with several seating areas where you can sit in the sun. On walking distance there is a bakery and supermarket, also for visits to the Catacomben, the archeologic museum and the Roman amphitheatre it is close by and easy to walk.
