About this property
Stylish apartment overlooking the historic market of Ortigia
Casa Sabir is an early 1900s chic apartment overlooking the fish and vegetable market on the island of Ortigia in Syracuse, South-Eastern Sicily. From its balconies you will enjoy a privileged point of view over the vibrant atmosphere of the stalls, with the calls of the sellers of fresh fish, vegetables and spices, for an authentic and deep Sicilian experience.
In the interiors, the charming original features such as the ancient tiles of the floors, the colored decors of the walls and the high vaulted ceilings, blend with the contemporary style made of designer lighting, microcement finishes and handcrafted furniture.
The kitchen with a fully equipped steel island and the eye-catching wine cellar with original maiolica floor invite you to cook fresh produce from the stalls and to try our special selection of Sicilian vineyards including organic and natural producers.
Upon request we organize cooking courses with our chef, including shopping at the market, private tours with an archeologist, Sicilian breakfast, private transfers.
