Demeure Historique dans un Emplacement de Prestige

Here, time truly slows down.

The DUOMO is right in front of you, the SEA in the background, light filling the rooms.

In the HEART of Sciacca, this HISTORIC RESIDENCE offers an EXCLUSIVE location where everything is within walking distance.

From the private BALCONIES, the VIEW of the DUOMO and the SEA becomes part of everyday life.

It’s not just where you stay: it’s how you feel while you’re there.

Entering BACIO DEL SOLE, inside Palazzo Cassar, is not like entering a simple building.
It is one of those places that makes you lower your voice without even realizing it.

This 19th-century noble residence, overlooking Piazza Duomo, retains all the charm of its history: ceilings over 4 meters high, original architectural details, and restored period furniture that adds character without being overwhelming.

Partially renovated in 2024, Bacio del Sole combines historic elegance with modern comfort: spacious, bright rooms designed to make you feel at home, not just to “stay.”

Every view is a painting, every moment an invitation to slow down and let yourself be inspired by the beauty that surrounds you.


🎯 PERFECT FOR:
• COUPLES looking for a scenic and romantic location, where the view and atmosphere are part of the experience
• FAMILIES who want real space and comfort, without sacrificing the historic centre
• SMALL GROUPS who want to experience Sciacca on foot, with privacy, light and a home that 'sets the scene'
• Those who love PLACES WITH SOUL, elegant but authentic, not just accommodation


🌅 THE VIEW THAT BECOMES PART OF THE DAY
Here, the light does not enter by chance.
In each room, you will find a private balcony from which to admire an unparalleled view of the Basilica della Madonna del Soccorso and the sea of Sciacca.

In the morning, it accompanies your coffee.
In the evening, it becomes silence, fresh air and time that slows down.
A view that never tires, because it is not a postcard: it is your everyday backdrop.


📍 LIVABLE LOCATION (the best)
From here, Sciacca can be explored on foot.
Go downstairs, cross the square, choose a restaurant, come back when you want—no car, no timetables, no stress.

🔔 NOTE ON LOCATION AND RELIGIOUS EVENTS:
The apartment directly overlooks the beautiful Basilica of Madonna del Soccorso. This makes the experience unique, fully immersed in the authentic life of the historic center.

📌 The church bells ring periodically throughout the day, contributing to the typical atmosphere of the area.

📅 In particular, on February 2nd and August 15th, Sciacca celebrates the historic Procession of Madonna del Soccorso: a deeply meaningful event that brings the entire city to life.
On these days, the Piazza Duomo area will be fully involved in the celebrations, with restrictions on mobility and parking.

🚫 Important note: on these two dates, check-in will not be possible for logistical and safety reasons.

However, the view of the procession and the festive atmosphere will be spectacular and unforgettable for guests already staying in the apartment.
