We had the pleasure of staying at Giovanni and Donatella’s studio suite during our honeymoon visit to Ragusa. The studio is the top two levels of the building, and has a well-equipped kitchen, and lovely outdoor spaces (the rooftop view is even better than the photos). You can opt to have breakfast at a nearby B&B for 5€ per person per day. We did all three days and it was excellent. Typical Italian breakfast sweets with options like toast, muesli, yogurt, cheese, meat and hard boiled eggs as well. Aside from that, Donatella and Giovanni also thoughtfully left us some snacks. It was a very sweet touch that made us feel welcome. The place is located in Ragusa Ibla, so do be prepared that if you’re driving, you’ll have to brave narrow streets, inclines, and at least one sharp right turn. Giovanni and Donatella were very sweet about our anxiety and coached us into a parking space where our car remained until the end of the trip. The city is best explored on foot and we were so glad we did. There were also guidebooks in the suite and our hosts made some very good recommendations for where to dine — Giovanni even went to the trouble to hand label a map for us!
We had a lovely time in Ragusa thanks to Giovanni and Donatella and we would definitely stay here again.
