The apartment was fantastic! Carmelo is a kind and attentive host. He communicated everything we could possibly need. Turn left out the front door and Ortigia awaits! The apartment is so spacious and well-appointed, making it a comfortable and welcoming stay. Grazie Mille, Carmelo. Marianne, Australia
Che posto fantastico in cui soggiornare a Ortigia per la nostra famiglia e il nostro cane! Spazioso e pulito con tutto il necessario, e a pochi passi da tutto ciò che è sull'isola. Carmelo è stato molto attento prima e durante la nostra visita in modo che tutti i dettagli fossero facili!
