We arrived late in the evening from Belgium, but Vittorio (the really fantastic owner) and Lina (his partner) were waiting for us in the center of Marina di Ragusa, where we had taken rendez-vous. (the house itself is difficult to find, as it is so beautifully situated 'off the road', and behind a fence that is closed at night: very safe!!). The house itself is a real gem: as good as new, nicely and cosy furnished, lots of space inside and outside, well-equipped kitchen, dishwasher, washing machine, 2 bathrooms, a great bedroom with a view and a first class bed: it is as described and on the photo's, but to be honest, even better!! Big Supermarket (that has everything, daily fresh bread, meat, fish, ...) at 500m. Vittorio and Lina are great hosts, that are at any moment ready to help you out with practical things, and the pool is cleaned very regularily: great service. The house is completely cleaned once a week, and linnen changed. They also have all the best tips for sightseeing, which places to go for hiking, which beaches to go for, where to buy things, etc. I never ever experienced a personal approach from a host as here! The garden is beautiful, full of birds, and the pool is a dream to refresh (even in May!!). What we liked most, was the quietness of the house and the surroundings: enjoy your stay at the fullest! (we were here 4 weeks, and had every day the day of our lives, sunbathing, citytripping or making excursions by car in the mountains, or hiking...). Marina di Ragusa beach and center are at 5 min drive by car (a must: be sure to have one!), with lots of nice little bars and excellent restaurants. We often cooked ourselves in the home, as the kitchen is so complete... Believe me, do not hesitate to book this place, we 100% recommend without hesitation to all... and already booked for next year ourselves! Just please make sure to keep the house as clean as it is kept by Vittorio and Lina, and be as nice and correct to them as they will be to you :-)
