Maniace Penthouse

On the beautiful Ortigia island, the ancient centre of Siracusa in Sicily, a sea view apartment overlooking the Castle of Maniace becomes a bright holiday home.

To create a Mediterranean mood the fixtures have been lacquered white, the beams sanded and the ceiling panels covered with white painted plasterboard. In this way the apartment has gained even more brightness. The clean, essential furnishings make the guests feel free and comfortable.

Living room with sea view from the sofa bed.
Custom-made kitchenette, produced by a local company.
Bathroom with walk-in shower and round wash basin on solid oak wood countertop, designed by Susanne Ratschiller.
In the bedroom: headboard in solid oak wood with integrated sliding bedside tables for easily transforming the double bed into two single beds, designed by Susanne Ratschiller.
