Sip some Amaro Siciliano after an alfresco meal on the terrace of this home with its gorgeous sea and city rooftop views. Then relax surrounded by cacti as the sun goes down. Afterwards, unwind on the sofa or gather around the log burner if the Sicilian weather turns chilly. Whether you're staying for business or a group of friends and family here for a holiday, this home has a great location. Forte Vigliena is a two-minute walk, while Syracuse Cathedral is five minutes on foot. If you want to spend the day at the beach, Calarossa Beach, with its golden sands and crystal clear waters, is a six-minute stroll. Or go for a hike around the Lungomare di Levante Ortigia, a four-minute saunter from this home.
