My sister and I loved Mario's apartment! It was a beautiful, comfortable apartment with everything you need in a fantastic location. Although we didn't get to meet Mario, his mother was very helpful and we had excellent communication with Mario. He gave us some good restaurant recommendations as well.

The location of the apartment is great - just a 5 minute walk from Ortigia. It has all the advantages of being in Ortigia without the parking problems. We had no trouble finding parking spots on the side streets. Also, the apartment is a short walk from the Voglia Matta gelateria where we went several times a day. The caffé granita there is to die for especially with whipped cream.

The apartment is very comfortable and has everything you might need including excellent wifi, beach towels & umbrella, a washing machine and lots of food.

We loved our trip to Sicily in no small part thanks to our wonderful stay in Mario's place. Grazie mille.
