If you're thinking "This place seems a little too good", you're wrong. It's better.
We loved, loved, loved everything about the house. It's located conveniently (and unbelievably) practically on top of the archeological site, so if you want to do some sightseeing, you could easily start in the garden and then just hop across the street. If you have your own car, all the better, since you get a key and can just park privately on the premises. (My mum almost cried because of the electronical gate, kept saying she feels like I princess. Accurate for the whole house as well!)
We booked the room spontaneously while staying in Palermo and had no real plans for Siracusa at all, so when we arrived at Dario's place he had already prepared a list of the best restaurants and was happy to tell us all about the places we should go check out on our stay. During our stay he was always quick to answer any questions, incredibly accommodating and just utterly delightful. The day before we had to live he took the time to show us around and his lovely mother brought fresh oranges for us, I'm not even going to mention anything else that was perfect about the stay, because I'll definitely be coming back ASAP and I'm almost scared everyone will find out about this gem and it'll be fully booked forever. I can't wait to sit in the lovely garden with a nice cup of coffee and enjoy the stunning view again. If you're going to Siracusa, this is the place you're looking for! Thank you so much for everything, Dario! :)
