Andrea could not have done more to make our first visit to Sicily a stunning success. As hosts, he and his partner Sebastiano were unfailingly helpful and the notes that are left in the apartment for guests are the best I have found in our entire three country experience of Airbnb. Casa Stucchi is absolutely lovely: the main room is large, with high ceilings, gorgeous white wood floor boards and tall French windows. Everything else is as described - I found the kitchen especially convenient and easy to use The apartment is two minutes from easy parking and the sea front and three minutes from Ortygia's glorious food market. We walked everywhere and would definitely recommend staying here and walking, bussing or cabbing it to Syracuse and the rest of the sights. Casa Stucchi has set the bar very high indeed: gold medals all round.
