About this property

Ortensia Apartments - Casa Paola by Wonderful Italy

Cozy and bright apartment with a balcony, a few steps from the sea, in Aci Castello.



The apartment, on the first floor of a house, opens onto a hallway that separates the living area from the sleeping area. The first one boasts a kitchen complete with a refrigerator, a microwave, all the necessary cooking tools and a dining table. The sleeping area features a large bedroom with a queen-size bed, a TV and a closet. The layout includes a balcony accessible from the kitchen and a bathroom with a shower.



*Upon arrival or a few days before arrival it may be required to pay a tourist tax, which varies according to local regulations. You will find your reservation details within the Guest Area of Wonderful Italy.



Catania can boast a beautiful historical center, listed among the UNESCO’s World Heritage Sites. Its architectural wonders, as well as the colorful street markets, the wild beauty of Mount Etna and the crystal-clear sea of the coasts will literally seduce you.

Among the others, the Cathedral of Sant’Agata (the city’s patron saint), Bellini theater, the street markets, Via Etnea (Catania’s most important and scenographic street), the wonderful Monastery of the Benedictines (home to the faculty of Human Sciences) and the Etna are really worth a visit.

And obviously, it is impossible not to mention Catania’s culinary tradition, with its typical arancini (fried rice balls), the iris (fried or baked stuffed bombs), Sant’Agata’s olivette (typical sweets made of almond paste and colored in green) and the famous brioches with granita.

For horse meat lovers, Via del Plebiscito with its typical street embers is really not to be missed. You can already smell the delicious aroma even from a long way off!

An unmissable stop-over just outside the city is the coast, and more specifically the beautiful Gulf of Acitrezza, where in 1881 Giovanni Verga set his best known novel, “I Malavoglia”.



Catania Fontanarossa airport is easily reachable with a 20 minute-drive, while Cannizzaro station is 1,6 km away from the accommodation.
