Easy to reach, convenient for traveling by car to and from the airport, with free parking always available and public transport stop a few meters away. Shuttle to Ortigia under the house, Taxi 2 euros per person Free parking around the property Guarded Parking for Motorcycles Possibility of transfer from / to Catania airport The apartment is located on the ground floor of a courtyard house managed by me and my family, and can accommodate up to a maximum of 2 people. It is about 35 square meters large and overlooks the external courtyard. It consists of an independent entrance, kitchen / living room, bathroom and double bedroom. You will also have Wifi, satellite TV, air conditioning / heating, clothesline and iron + ironing board. Finally Sheets, Towels, Tablecloths for the face and the courtesy set consisting of soaps, shower shampoo with olive oil and foam bath with wheat germ oil. For any other needs, please ask, we will do everything possible to satisfy you. Guests have an independent entrance to the apartment. The host gives them two keys, one for the apartment and another for the main entrance to the structure. You can communicate with me and my family at any time, via APP or by mail or by message. At check-in you will be given a sheet with all the useful numbers to use when needed. The apartment is located in the second historic center of Syracuse. Compared to Ortigia, 1.1 km away, which can be covered in about 20 minutes on foot, it enjoys the advantage of free parking right under the house at any time of the day. Ortigia can be reached with the "Siracusadamare" line 2 shuttle service operating every day or with the AST public service lines 1, 2, 3 and 4\. See the "puntozerosiracusa" website for more info. The area offers the greatest concentration of attractions in Syracuse. A few minutes walk starts with a visit to the Neapolis Archaeological Park, which includes, among others, the Greek Theater, the Ear of Dionysus and the Roman Amphitheater. In the same route we find the Paolo Orsi Archaeological Museum, the Sanctuary of the Madonnina delle Lacrime, the Catacombs of San Giovanni and the newly renovated Church of the same name. In the opposite direction, always a few minutes on foot, we find the Latomie dei Cappuccini and, overlooking the sea of Syracuse, the Monument to the Fallen. ## Property amenities ### Internet - Available in the apartment: WiFi ### Parking and transportation - Car not required - Parking on site ### Food and drink - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils ### Bedrooms - Bedroom - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 1 bathroom - Hair dryer - Shampoo - Shower - Soap - Towels provided ### Entertainment - TV with cable/satellite channels ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Comfort - Air conditioning - Heating ### Pets - No pets allowed ### Suitability/Accessibility - Smoking not allowed ### Services and conveniences - Iron/ironing board ### Location highlights - Near a hospital - Near the sea ### Things to do - Cycling nearby - Fishing nearby - Jet skiing nearby - Sailing nearby - Surfing/bodyboarding nearby - Swimming nearby - Windsurfing nearby ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector not reported (host has not indicated whether there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property; consider bringing a portable detector) - Smoke detector not reported (host has not indicated whether there is a smoke detector on the property) - Deadbolt lock ### General - Property does not allow children - Unit size: 431 square feet ## Similar properties ![Property grounds](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/33000000/32630000/32628500/32628496/9ce92e77.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Bella Vita apartment, free Wi-Fi, free parking Santa Lucia - Hot tub - Kitchen - Air conditioning - Parking available [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-03-25&endDate=2026-03-26&selected=32628496&PinnedHotelID=32628496&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Property grounds](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/79000000/78480000/78479400/78479396/05779349.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Convenient accommodation in the city center.
