Stylish accommodation just minutes from the beautiful Piazza Duomo in the stunning Baroque town of Ortigia. No tour of Sicily is complete without a visit to this fascinating Sicilian town.
Arrival day: Any
Apartment Sabir is located in a busy pedestrian street which is full of market stalls during the day selling fresh produce from the local area.
A large wooden door leads into the building from the street and stone steps lead up the first floor where the apartment is located.
There are two large double bedrooms both with floor to ceiling doors leading out onto small balconies overlooking the market below. The master double bedroom has an ensuite shower room and the second double bedroom has a shower room accessed across a small hallway.
The kitchen and dining area sit between the two bedrooms and again has large doors leading to a small balcony with views over the street below. The glass in all the doors and windows within the apartment is specially thickened to reduce noise levels from the market below. There is a small lounge area away from the street where you can relax in the evenings with a glass of wine and a guide book to plan your next day of sightseeing. The owner of this town apartment has also had the foresight to add a lovely wine cellar so you won't need to move far from the view should you decide to have an evening in watching the world go by below the apartment.
There are many excellent restaurants and bars all within a short walk from the apartment and should you wish to take a dip in the sea there are several pontoons off the coastal road from where you can sunbathe and swim.
Apartment Sabir is the quality of a good 4/5 star hotel with all the independence and flexibility an apartment offers.
