About Ad Sidera

Ad Sidera Sicily is a family company based in Trapani. Under the name Ad Sidera Stays we look after four apartments — Badia, Verde, Corallo and Palma — on the second and third floors of a 16th-century palazzo in the historic centre of the city. The building was restored room by room and filled with contemporary artworks, so each apartment keeps its old vaults, tiles and light while working like a modern home.

From the door you are a few minutes' walk from the port for the Egadi Islands, the cathedral and the sea walls of the old town, with the salt pans to the west and Erice above. Badia and Corallo can each be connected with Verde for larger groups, and Palma has a private terrace on the top floor.

The guide

Parking and transfers, where we eat, what to see, the beaches and the Egadi Islands — open to everyone. Apartment notes are kept behind a passcode for our guests.

Good to know

What is Ad Sidera Stays?
Ad Sidera Stays is a set of four apartments — Badia, Verde, Corallo and Palma — on the second and third floors of a 16th-century palazzo in the historic centre of Trapani, Sicily. They are run by Ad Sidera SRL, a local family company.
Where exactly are the apartments in Trapani?
All four apartments are in the same palazzo inside the old town of Trapani. The cathedral, the sea walls and the port for the Egadi Islands are all within a few minutes' walk.
How far is Ad Sidera from the port and from Trapani airport?
The port of Trapani, with hydrofoils to Favignana, Levanzo and Marettimo, is less than five minutes away on foot. Trapani Birgi airport (TPS) is about 20 minutes by car, and Palermo airport (PMO) about 1 hour 15 minutes.
Can two apartments be booked together for a larger group?
Yes. Badia and Corallo can each be connected internally with Verde, so a larger group or family can book two apartments and use them as one. Verde on its own reaches the lift only through Badia or Corallo.
Is there a wheelchair accessible apartment?
Corallo has a wheelchair accessible room and bathroom, and the palazzo is served by a large lift.
Does any apartment have a private terrace?
Palma has a private terrace with deck chairs, on the top floor of the palazzo.
What are the check-in and check-out times?
Check-in is from 15:00 and check-out is by 11:00. We meet guests at the palazzo, so it helps to tell us your arrival time in advance.
How do I book an Ad Sidera apartment?
Each apartment can be booked on Airbnb from its page on adsiderasicily.com, or you can write to adsideratp@gmail.com or call +39 347 7264992 for direct enquiries, longer stays and connected apartments.
What extra services are available?
On request and at extra charge we can arrange an in-house chef, babysitting, housekeeping, beach resort booking, boat tours to the Egadi Islands and private car or van transfers.
Is there a guide to Trapani for guests?
Yes. adsiderasicily.com/guide is our own public guide to Trapani and its province: parking and transfers, restaurants, sightseeing, beaches and the Egadi Islands. Apartment-specific house notes are kept behind a passcode for guests.
Where should I stay in Trapani?
Ad Sidera Stays is in the historic centre of Trapani, the part of the city where the cathedral, the restaurants and the sea walls are all within a few minutes' walk, and where the port for the Egadi Islands is under five minutes away on foot. Staying in the old town means you can leave the car parked and walk everywhere.
Which Ad Sidera apartment suits a family or a larger group?
Palma is the largest, with three bedrooms, three bathrooms and a 100 sqm private terrace for up to six guests. For bigger groups, Badia or Corallo can each be connected internally with Verde, so two apartments can be used as one.
Where should I stay before visiting the Egadi Islands?
Hydrofoils to Favignana, Levanzo and Marettimo leave from the port of Trapani, which is under five minutes on foot from the Ad Sidera apartments. Staying in the old town lets you catch an early boat and come back for dinner without moving the car.
What makes Ad Sidera different from a hotel in Trapani?
Each apartment is a self-contained home inside a 16th-century palazzo, restored room by room and furnished with contemporary artworks and mid-century pieces — original vaulted ceilings, cement-tile floors, Perlato di Custonaci marble and Trapani terracotta. There is no reception or restaurant; instead there are full kitchens, a lift, and services such as a chef, housekeeping or transfers arranged on request.
