The property is beautifully furnished and has an incredible view. The parking is a huge plus. It is a short walk to anything you want in Ortigia. Just outside the apartment to the left there was a nice cafe right on the water to have coffee in the morning, and there were two restaurants right there that were also quite good. The beach is also about a 2 min walk, which was great for our teenagers. It was very clean, had comfy beds and good air conditioning;) Also, a huge plus for us Americans...there was a drip coffee maker and ground coffee! It was like discovering an elf in the kitchen. The hosts were very helpful and accommodating--we booked last minute when another property had problems and we were stranded with our kids and no place to stay. We followed several of our hosts' recommendations for restaurants and beaches, which all turned out to be good choices. We also went and spent a day at Fontane Bianche (about a 25 min drive, but there is also a bus) which was fun and lovely. Overall we stayed in 4 Airbnbs in Sicilian cities and this was the best one.
