Large penthouse apartment with a fantastic view of the sea
This large and bright apartment has a unique location on the seafront in the Ognina-Picanello district, a safe and peaceful district three km east of the center of Catania. This area is perfect for extended families or groups of friends who want a quiet holiday, but still within walking distance of city life. For those traveling with small children, or many children, a large apartment is often more flexible and suitable than a hotel. The area is an excellent starting point for exploring Catania and the city's surroundings.
From the apartment, it is a short distance to cafes, restaurants, shops and the popular fishing port of San Giovanni Li Cuti with swimming opportunities. On the building's first floor, there is an authentic Sicilian cafe. There is a free public car park outside the apartment building and from the airport it takes about 15 minutes by car or taxi.
