City center apartments in Sicily

Sicily is well connected to the rest of Italy and Europe. The fastest and most convenient way to get there is by plane, with the main airports of Catania, Palermo and Comiso , the latter ideal for those traveling to Ragusa. Alternatively, you can arrive by train, crossing the Strait of Messina thanks to the ferries between Villa San Giovanni and Messina. If you prefer to travel by car, motorbike or camper, you can opt for the ferries that connect Sicily to the ports of Naples, Salerno and Genoa.

Renting a car in Sicily is highly recommended, especially if you want to explore the baroque cities, nature reserves and the most picturesque beaches. Public transport links the main cities well, but is not always reliable to reach remote areas. A car allows you to discover authentic places and travel with more freedom. However, if you are staying in the centre of cities such as Syracuse or Ragusa Ibla, you may prefer to move on foot to avoid traffic and parking difficulties.

Yes, Sicily is perfect for families. Its beaches often have shallow waters and calm waters, ideal for children. In addition, many cities offer activities suitable for all ages, such as visits to archaeological parks, boat trips and interactive museums. Sicilian cuisine is another strong point: the little ones will love pasta, pizza and typical desserts such as cannoli and granita.

Staying in the historic center of Ragusa does not mean giving up the sea. In less than half an hour by car you can reach some of the most beautiful beaches of south-eastern Sicily. Marina di Ragusa is the nearest destination and offers wide sandy beaches, equipped beaches and a lively promenade. If you prefer a quieter atmosphere, Donnalucata is perfect for relaxing by the sea. Punta Secca, made famous by the series 'Il Commissario Montalbano', is a small seaside village with an enchanting beach and a unique charm.
