We are a retired couple from Canada who have stayed at multiple Air B&B accommodation in Italy over the past year. We have stayed at Antonino’s place for five days so got to know the accommodation and surrounding area well. Nino is an excellent host. He and his son Lorenzo showed us the highlights of Ortigia/Siracusa and offers tips on places to shop and eat....they even stopped on our way to the accommodation at a grocery store so we could pick up food for our stay! The sandy beach is about a 10 minute walk. A vehicle is a must to get into town as well as shop fir groceries etc. Nino speaks very little English but between Google and his friendly gestures we understood each other perfectly. The place is fully equipped with all you would need for a short or longer stay...hair drier, pots, pans, dishes, utensils, stove and microwave. The accommodation was spotless. Highly recommend!
