Company info

Casa VerbaVolant is a recently opened structure; in a historic family mansion, in the heart of Ortigia. The project is closely linked to the activity of the publishing house, VerbaVolant edizioni, known for the unusual formats of its books and for the care in the choice of paper and illustrations. To welcome you, you will find the hosts Elio and Fausta, who will introduce you to their world and help you make your stay special by making you feel ... at Home!

Property info

Codice CIR: 19089017B400281 Casa VerbaVolant is a somewhat special structure: it is born from the love of the owners, Elio and Fausta, for books, paper and typewriters. A perfect place for lovers of reading, writing but not only: a place cared for in every detail, where nothing is left to chance: from artisan soap to olive oil that you will find in the bathrooms, passing through our library. Guests also have access to the Continental Room, a space where workshops and literary events are organized and a small area dedicated to exhibitions. Casa VerbaVolant is the perfect place for unusual holidays! Five apartments are dedicated to typographic fonts; two apartments, in the 5 and last floor, (the only 2 with terraces) are dedicated to Remington typewriters (mini suite) and to Royal tipewriters (pentahouse with terrace of 35 mq). Inside each apartment you will find a small office area equipped with a working machine, to write a letter or, why not, your first novel! In the same building there are also three rooms, dedicated to three typewriters.

Neighborhood info

Casa VerbaVolant is located in an ancient building in the heart of the island of Ortigia, near Piazza del Duomo, opposite the baroque church of the Collegio. The island is one of the favorite destinations of travelers from all over the world. Visit the most famous places or explore the narrow streets of the historic center while admiring the most suggestive views. If you wish, you can also sunbathe or swim in the cool waters of the island. You will also find a wide selection of bars, restaurants, pizzerias and bistros. Ortigia can be reached by car but, on weekends and holidays, it is ZTL. So pay attention to the traffic lights at the entrance to the island. Mini buses, taxis and other means of transport can stop in Piazza Archimede, a few steps from Casa VerbaVolant. But Ortigia must be visited on foot, indulging in long and relaxing walks, through the narrow streets or near the sea, enjoying sunrises and sunsets and breathing in the scent of salt.
