We enthusiastically support all the other positive reviews for this charming apartment in Ragusa. We had a week here, and it ended up being a most memorable stay. The apartment offers architectural charms in abundance while also being roomy, comfortable and generously kitted-out. It's in a quiet location a short walk from the cathedral in Ragusa, and just on the edge of the pleasant walk into Ragusa Ibla.
We were met by Vincenzo's nephew, Giuseppe, who was charming, extremely helpful and responsive. He kindly helped us park the first night, when a special event in town made this a challenge. Parking on the long bridge nearby was easy for the rest of our stay. Giuseppe was also very flexible and met us an hour earlier than we had anticipated, and gave us some grace on checkout as well.
The character of the apartment was such a pleasure, with its touches of the surrounding countryside: homemade wine was generously left for us, and delicious homemade jams and marmalades, too; and there was a beautiful basket of tomatoes from the family farm, and one full of their apples, and another of walnuts and chestnuts with nutcracker to hand. A bowl of pomegranates and fragrant quince were also left for us to enjoy the connection with Sicily's rich seasonal bounty. Giuseppe's kind mother made us a lovely croustade, too.
This was a special place, and the hosts are special people who have a genuine care for the comfort of their guests and the quality of their experience of this beautiful area. This was the most charming and characterful place we've stayed, and made for a memorable stay.
