Casa di Gio is a beautiful home in the heart of Noto, freshly renovated, just one minute away from the main street, corso Vittorio Emanuele, and literally below Noto's Cathedral and City Hall (Palazzo Ducezio). We loved it very much although we had problems water, as the pump was broken which means little pressure and the last two days of five with cold water (the boiler could not menage to refill). The owners, Walter from Naples and his partner Sandra from Nice, France, where they live, knew something was wrong with it from before, so they could've handled promptly, but I'm sure they will take care of it as soon as they can, they sounded like very nice people. The bathrooms don't have bidets, which as Italian is annoying because is part of our cleansing culture, so being the apartment in Italy I would've included them in the renovation project, but I guess guests from around the world will not have problems with that. Toilets don't have toilet seats: I do suggested they put them because, unless all men sit to pee, which is unlikely, it is not hygienic at all, plus sitting on the freezing porcelain is very unpleasant (we stayed in November, not in the summer). Also, in the three-bed room, the bathroom door can only be locked from the outside, which is weird: if you're in, it'll always stay a little bit open, unable to be locked or even closed properly.
All this said, we loved the apartment because it is really beautiful as it was renovated with great taste: the white tiles of the floor reflect the Sicilian sun that floods in the living room gloriously, the warmness of the space with welcoming couches, the marble of the kitchen and the huge size of the showers, the two terraces, relaxing on hammock on the top terrace overlooking the lemon and olive tree fields descending to the sea, the walks through Noto from this central nest. Beds are pretty comfortable too.
It is definitely an amazing place to stay while in Noto, and to visit all that there's around: Vendicari, Siracusa-Ortigia, Modica, Scicli, Ragusa, the beaches and the many beauties this part of Sicily has to offer.
