My fiancé and I have just returned from a wonderful 5 night trip to Ortigia made even more special by staying at Casa Flora. Chiara was more than helpful, calling us when we landed at Catania Airport to ensure we had arrived safely and greeting us outside the apartment. She gave us a quick tour of the apartment and some recommendations for authentic Sicilian restaurants and sites to visit - more than you would get at some hotels! The apartment was beautiful (clean and spacious), set in a very quaint and picturesque Ortigia side street and only a short walk to the seafront and main attractions of Ortigia. We made great use of the terrace sitting outside every evening admiring the sea views and watching the sun go down with a glass of wine - perfection! Thank you Chiara and Gabriele for making our stay in Ortigia such a wonderful experience. We look forward to returning some day!
