The apartment was even more amazing than the photos! Lucia and Michele have created a unique and ultra modern space, which also manages to show-off the surrounding ancient beauty of Ortigia, which you can see and feel all around you through the many windows and sky lights. I enjoyed both stunning sunsets and sunrises from the windows and roof top terrace. Lucia was a wonderful host, explained all the necessities and provided inside info on recommended places to eat. The setting is perfect as you are right near the water and in a tucked away corner of Ortigia, meaning short walks to restaurants and sites but quiet place to escape to. Lucia went above and beyond for us even after we checked out. We accidentally left a bag behind and she promptly picked it up and drove to Catania airport to deliver it to us! We will recommend this apartment to anyone visiting Siracusa!
