Beachfront holiday rental in Syracuse

This was my favorite place I stayed in Sicily. It's a short walk from some of the busier parts of Ortigia, but it was so quiet, even in the courtyard. There are regular shops in the neighborhood and the kitchen is well laid out and we were able to make a small dinner our first night and take it easy. It might be hard to tell from the pictures, but the courtyard really is private and open to the sky, a delightful place for morning coffee, and afternoon read, or a quiet nightcap. Our seven-year-old loved his sofa bed and watching TV to decompress after a long day of travel and seeing the sites. I can't say enough good things about Rita, who takes care of the apartment. She was helpful and engaging. We asked a bunch of questions about our arrival and her answers were timely and reassuring. She gave us clear instructions on how to get from the bus terminal to the apartment and gave us a warm welcome which set a pleasant tone for our trip.

The apartment offers an incredibly beautiful view and the best sunset view. However, one should be aware that the apartment is located directly on the promenade with many restaurants and it is a bit noisy - especially on Fridays and Saturdays. Alberto is super friendly and has always accommodated us. The amenities are great.

Thanks for your stay! Perfect place for a short visit to Syracuse with friends. Azzurra and Franceso were attentive and their house is fantastic.

We had the most beautiful time at this beach house and hope to come again one day! You can hear the sound of the ocean all the time, the interior is cosy and everything you need in the kitchen is there. The communication with Francesco was perfect. It‘s a gem.

We had a lovely time staying here. We didn’t need to use the car as it was a 30 minute walk to the archeological park and a 30 minute walk to the castle on Ortygia. The flat was spotless and the view from the window amazing. Highly recommended

What a fantastic bnb in a great location Super sunny & bright. Spacious. Lovely view over the beach & water. Very comfortable. Solid A/C. & 1k to one of the best restaurants ever, Manna! Don’t miss this amazing dinner spot! Good deli & fruit stand near the other end of pier. Livia very helpful & responsive host. I’d come here again for sure!

Andrea's home in Fontane Bianche is fabulous...my family of 5 felt right at home! We took full advantage of the terrazzas overlooking the yard and the Ionian Sea--frequently our preferred location for a morning espresso with breakfast. His well-equipped kitchen along with dishwasher, washing machine, clothesline, etc. are fantastic amenites to have access to while on vacation. The yard is beautifully adorned with local plants, fruit trees, and catci. The views of the sea are fantastic--a back gate opens right on shore and offers hours of exploration of tidal pools and a World War II "pillbox" machine gun nest to explore 5 minutes walk down the shore toward the beach. The nearby La Capannina da Gino restaurant was a family favorite with pizza, pasta, & seafood dishes that offered something for everyone. We took advantage of the Holiday Market on the main street in town and for larger shopping needs, visited the Lidl and Conad in Avola. Andrea's place offers much for everyone!

The place is really fantastic. It is just outside the tourist part. The apartment is located in a quiet street and at night it is quiet. You have very nice food and drink tents just a stone's throw away. Our favorite one is‘ Cod ’. A very nice and cozy seafood restaurant. The apartment is located between two nice beaches and is within walking distance. Thanks for the fun experience!

Very good stay in this peaceful place. The accommodation and environment match the photos. Very nice proximity to the beach. Plenty of storage in the accommodation.

One of the nicest locations i have stayed in. The sea access, terrace and views could not be improved they are stunning. Siracusa itself also stunning. I wouldn't hesitate to stay again.

We spent a brilliant week here with our kids (11 and 13) and, although we had plans to explore more of the area, the moment we arrived, we didn’t want to leave. The house has a calm, welcoming feel that instantly puts you in holiday mode. Aside from a day trip to Syracuse, we were more than happy staying close. Pozzallo, a 5 min short drive away, has an incredible gelateria right on the beach. And just a stroll from the house is The Lampana, where we dined on many occasions. The food is fantastic, and the owner speaks perfect english. The house itself is spotless, beautifully designed, and so well thought out. USB ports by every bed. A few practical tips: there’s no house manual, so ask all questions when you arrive. Rubbish needs to be taken to a local point, and remember to save cash for the tourist tax at checkout. But honestly - book it. The view takes your breath away! The pool was a joy, worth getting it heated (30 degrees) if you plan on using it a lot.

We absolutely loved Alfredo’s place. Beautiful, immaculately clean, comfy bed and amazing shower. Loved the little deck sitting out area for evenings and pool to cool off. Fabulous Airbnb and Alfredo was so lovely and friendly and helpful. Great 5 days in lovely Fontane Bianchi.

The villa was absolutely beautiful and very well equipped. We particularly enjoyed the choice of outdoor areas and the pool. Sabrina was an extremely lovely and responsive host who made sure our stay was smooth. Arriving in Catania at 8am, we were able to do an early check-in which was much appreciated. Our children also appreciated the cats who came to say hi, it reminded us of ours :) We would definitely recommend Sabrina’s place.

We had a great time staying at Antonio and his family's place! Unfortunately, our outbound flight was delayed for 3 hours and Antonio checked in with us at 2 o'clock at night and was more than friendly. The place is very well maintained, there was even water, everything for an Italian breakfast and pasta for cooking. The garden area is well maintained and the pool very pleasant. It is definitely recommended to have a car, then the beautiful old town of Syracuse can be reached in about 15 minutes and you are on the very beautiful beach in less than 5 minutes. We would definitely recommend the place in Arenella!

Francesco and Salvo have the most beautiful villa that’s very private and perfect for our family. We loved the big shaded terrace for the hot midday moments, and especially loved the pool with its wide shallow steps that were perfect for our children. We also loved the location being less than 2 mins walk from the amazing beaches with very clear Turquoise water and 5 mins walk from the excellent Lido Aqua beach with great food. It’s good to have a car to go to wonderful Noto and Marzamemmi and supermarkets etc. Francesco and Salvo are excellent hosts and helped us in many ways. The house has excellent black out because of the in built shutters! Very useful with our children, everyone slept very well. Thank you Francesco and Salvo

A beautiful spacious property, well equipped and with a marvellous swimming pool in which we swam every day. Alberto and also Nisha were very responsive and helpful. The villa is an easy 15 -20 minute drive to Siracusa.

I fell in love with Syracuse, and Cinzia's place was one of the reasons I enjoyed it so much. The house is located in a perfect spot—not in the middle of the tourist crowd, but close enough to get anywhere super conveniently. Cinzia responds to messages very promptly, helped us set up parking (which is hard to do in Ortigia), and when something came up during our stay, she responded immediately and came to help us. I felt very safe in the neighborhood and the house is beautifully decorated with everything that I needed during the trip. I would definitely come back to stay!

Wow, this place exceeded my expectations. The location is perfectly near both the sea and the restaurants/ shops. The apartment itself was absolutely spotlessly clean and had absolutely everything you would need (and more!). Careful thought has been put into the home with various wireless chargers, sonos speaker and an additional loft space which my daughter loved as her own room! Davide's place is even better than the pictures and much bigger than we expected. We'd love to stay again just to make the most of the beautiful space they have created in the apartment. Thank you!

Miriam and family were wonderful hosts. They personally escorted us to the apartment on Ortigia Island and made the process a breeze. We really enjoyed Ortigia Island and Miriam's apartment is a perfect place to explore it. Everything about our stay exceeded our expectations.

Thank you Francesca for an incredible stay! You are kind, thoughtful and simply a wonderful host. We will surely be back to stay at Little House the next time we come back to Siracusa! Everything was perfect and we were so content.

Even nicer than we imagined- the patio is right off the bedroom making it super easy to use for breakfast and afternoon drinks. It has the best view in the city!

Great place to stay! Very central and great host! Would recommend!

staying here is like being a local Ortagian we were greeted at our parking space by Enrico who is Majas man on the ground who took us down the street to the apartment so much better than having to find a key lock box the apartment is superbly equipped and stylish in a typical Italian fashion large lounge with views two bedrooms both on a par ditto for the bathrooms on the third floor there is also an amazing terrace ideal for the alfresco breakfast sunbathing and pre dinner sundowners this was one of the best airbandbs we know and we would like to return

We travelled to Rome with our two teenagers and couldn't have been more happy with Mathew's appt. it was so much bigger than the pictures show and so comfortable. Our kids loved the apt and didn't want to leave. We enjoy the kitchen and laundry facilities. There were lots of windows and sunshine. The location was in the centre of the action in Trastevere; close to restaurants and shopping and walking distance to the Pantheon, Trevi Fountain and the Spanish Steps, colleseum etc. We would definitely stay in the apt again! it was well cleaned, and maintained. perfect landing spot for a holiday in Rome with a family.
