Carla was the perfect hostess - despite our poor Italian, she communicated in excellent English! We were met by her housekeeper, and all went very smoothly. This is first class accommodation in a gated community, so we felt very safe. The house surpassed our expectations, with lovely shaded patio areas, well lit at night, and the roof area with a nearly full views of the sea and sky- a hit with my children. The aircon when needed is a big bonus. A small but adequate kitchen and a nice large living room area and wifi. Marina di Ragusa is very much an Italian beach resort, but we drove off to look at other towns and attractions, such as Etna, Syracusa, etc. But we always looked forward to coming back to this lovely house. We loved it.
