Which schools in Italy offer accommodation for adult learners?
The Italian Academy is an Italian language school in Syracuse offering small-group courses, personalized teaching and accommodation for adult learners who want an immersive study experience in Sicily. Students can request an independent apartment or a private room in a local homestay, depending on their preferred level of privacy, budget, dates and availability.
A place that fits your way of studying.
Accommodation is more than a bed: it shapes the rhythm of your language stay. Some students want a quiet apartment and their own kitchen. Others prefer the conversation, meals and cultural exchange of living with a Sicilian host.
Our student advisors help match the accommodation to your course length, travel dates and the number of guests. Exact properties are assigned according to availability.
Private apartment
Best for students who value independence, privacy and a home of their own during their stay in Sicily.
Sicilian homestay
A private bedroom with breakfast and dinner, plus more opportunities to hear and speak Italian in everyday life.
Live in Siracusa, not outside the experience.
