2 Bedroom Apartment in Ortigia, Syracuse

Palazzo Colpace in Syracuse, is a uniquely elegant and spectacular vacation rental. Built in early nineteen century, the Palazzo perfectly complements the ancient beauty of Ortygia, the old island and nest of the Ancient Greek colony in which Archia established the new town that one day will become the most powerful of the Greek colonies. Ortygia is a pearl in the middle of the blue waters of the Ionian sea. The Palazzo resembles a nave-ship facing the water which you will be able to enjoy from its beautifully furnished terrace. Every room in Palazzo Colpace rental features breathtaking views of the Ionian sea or the city: stand on the terrace and watch the sparkling water of the 'Isolotto dei cani' that barely reaches the surfaces of the sea, or follow ships crossing the sea, or watches the little fishing boats with lights at night looking for octopus, or stand on the balcony to look at the terraces and roofs of the old city, or relax in bed or on the sofa to read a book or day-dream. Inside, rooms are elegantly furnished with three beds and two sofa-beds, ceramic tiles, vaulted ceilings, and modern amenities.
Come and stay with us, and discover the pleasure of a perfect place, a place to simply live in.
About the apartment
Palazzo Colpace rental consists of a large apartment located at the second floor of a nineteen century building. The apartment includes a master bedroom, a smaller bedroom, a very large living room, a big kitchen and two bathrooms. All rooms are vaulted. A large terrace faces the sea on one side and a balcony offers open views of the city on the other side. Wear your bathing suit and go to swim just under the Palazzo, or wear your walking shoes and wonders in the narrow streets of Ortigia, or just sit at a cafe in the main square having your gelato or sipping your favorite refreshing drink. The location of the house offers privacy, but is only an easy 10 minute walk to the main square, or the Arethusa spring, and shops with art crafts or object of Italian design, or cafes and restaurants offering the many delicacies of Sicilian cuisine.
The living room continues onto a large terrace with two lounge chairs, a dining table and a sofa. They create a perfect spot for relaxation, private sunbathing, romantic dining, or just sea watching. The living room contains a dining table, a comfortable leather sofabed, along with a coffee table and a wall-unit equipped with TV monitor and stereo. A large glass door divides the living room from the kitchen. The gourmet kitchen is fully equipped with dishwasher, oven, microwave, washing machine, refrigerator and freezer, as well as a dining table. A second sofabed is also present in the kitchen for an extra guest or just for enjoying reading a book or a newspaper. The master bedroom has a queen size bed, a wardrobe, a writing-desk, a TV monitor and a Charlotte chair. The second bedroom has two twin beds that can be transformed into a queen bed upon request, a wardrobe, a writing desk and a chair. The apartment has two bathrooms with showers. One of the two bathrooms is directly accessible through the master bedroom, the other bathroom can be accessed from the apartment. A long balcony facing the old town is accessible from the master bedroom and kitchen. Each room has air conditioning and centralized heat. WiFi is available in all rooms.
Palazzo Colpace is three minutes walking from Forte Vigliena, leading down to the waterโ€™s edge through a few steps. Forte Vigliena is open all day and offers immediate access to the crystal clear waters of the Ionian sea. The Historic Center of Ortigia all around, with its buildings of great cultural value, make Siracusa a favorite tourist destination. Especially at night, when the streetlights of this little island create a very special atmosphere, as if one were in a stately home full of works of art and beautiful buildings for one to discover and explore.

Summary: The apartment was just as advertised. The apartment was spacious and very clean and with a full kitchen, shopping at the local market and cooking was a great option to have. The large terrace overlooking the Ionian Sea provided a wonderful setting for our morning coffee and for a relaxing glass of wine at the end of the day. We found so much to do in this picturesque town all within easy walking distance from the apartment. We had rented a car and the owner helped us book a safe and secure a parking spot just a few blocks away. We made Ortigia our base and enjoyed day trips to Noto, Ragusa Ibla, Modica, Taormina and Marzamemi making this among our "best ever" vacations.

Summary: Giuseppinaโ€™s apartment is perfect. The patio overlooking the ocean is spectacular. The apartment was very clean, bright and comfortable and well appointed. We spent a week here and loved every minute. While centrally located, its on a quiet street. We were a bit โ€œdirectionally challengedโ€ and couldnโ€™t find the garage. Like a good sport, Giuseppina got in our car and took us there. Turns out it was just around the corner. Thank you, Guiseppina for a wonderful stay. Andy and Susan

Summary: My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Ortigia. This apartment was perfect for us. Spacious with lots of living space. This was important since we were staying for a month. Very comfortable. A lovely deck/terrace. The location was perfect. In a quiet neighborhood but so close to everything on the island - lots of good restaurants nearby. Also important as we did not rent a car. Could walk everywhere we needed or wanted to go.

Summary: This was a great apartment, clean, comfortable and spacious. Plenty of room for the 4 of us to spread out after our days of touring Ortigia. The location was just great., allowing us to explore Ortigia pretty extensively by foot. Unfortunately, we speak little Italian and so check in was a bit confusing as the assistant who met us spoke minimal English. We understand that that's our failure, not his. We are in our 70s and 80s. I mention that because the 44 steps from the street up to the apartment were a challenge. But the view from the patio out over the sea was totally worth it. A lovely place to stay

Summary: The apartment was fabulous for the 3 of us. The balcony overlooking the sea was magical. The location was great, as its on the quieter side of Ortigia, but 5 minute walk from everywhere. Great kitchen and sitting room aswell. We loved this property.
