The property was quiet with super friendly staff. We stayed in the top floor suite with a private balcony and enjoyed a couple beautiful afternoons relaxing there before dinner. Breakfast was plentiful with a variety of pastries and charcuteie options.

Great staff and location
Friendster staff great great great location near parking confortable I do strongly recommand
We had a great time in Ortigia. The hotel is in a really convenient location and close to all the restaurants and shops. Our stay was really comfortable and the staff was lovely and really accommodating to our needs.
Very friendly, helpful staff. Accommodations were lovely and clean. We managed to park easily, in the lot in front of the property. Our stay was wonderful and the location was ideal for experiencing all of the amazing sites in Ortigia.
Really good.
Location, view,friendliness,cleanliness and condition in Ortigia Portamarina makes us want to get back asap. Limited hours at reception but all our needs were taken care of.
This property has it all! Parking, although not free, was close by and safe. The rooftop terrace we enjoyed immensely and the room was very nice. The island is loaded with restaurants and shopping, everything is within a short walk and very safe. We also enjoyed a boat trip around the island. Our host Manuela was very nice and friendly as well!
Location is perfect - within 5-10 minutes walking from everything. But in a quiet street. Bed was comfortable. Staff was very nice. View from the terrace was great. I would love to be able to return there again.
Giovanna and Manuale, both of the ladies, made the stay an exceptional experience. They were always ready to help with suggestions about the food and beach places that were out of the reach of tourists and were very supportive during the entire stay. By the way, the suite with the terrace provides a stunning view of the sea and sunset. The property is close to the city center as well to the main bus lines.

Rooms are tight, no shelf space in bathroom, and no shelf space in bedroom. Yet location and staff excellent.
The beautifully decorated B &B felt curated. Decorated with love and care. Bravo.
Our fourth floor room was wonderful- but a little too challenging for carrying bags up the stairs! Narrow and steep. There was lemonade to be made from lemons - there was a beautiful, large terrace exclusively for us.
Manuela was exceptionally helpful. She sat down and mapped all the charms of Ortigia. Her weekend replacement was lovely.
The B & B offers a wonderful breakfast for 10 euros. Enough for 2.

Liked: Staff & service
The property is located very conveniently and one can access the entire island by foot. The reason I booked the property was because of its large exclusive balcony terrace facing the water. The view was great and the staff was quite friendly. There was no good place to sit on the terrace as the iron bench was rusted and had no cushions. I asked the staff for the same but never received any. Also the bathroom had a fowl smell. There was no ventilation fan in the bathroom either. Overall still had a very nice time in Ortigia.
