Apartment vacation rentals in Santa Maria del Focallo

Perfect location for my wife, 2yo son and I. A short, safe walk from the bustling marina (but far enough to escape any noise), and straight over the road from a lovely, quiet beach. We had a few unfortunate complications during our stay, but these were not Elisa's fault - internet failure, broken toilet flush, power outage. in fact, these only served to demonstrate what an excellent host Elisa is. Even later at night, she was quick to respond and everything was resolved in no time and with the minimum of fuss. The apartment itself was spotless, the shower was powerful and easy to control. The beds were comfortable and the kitchen had everything we needed for simple meals (although the restaurants were so good and such good value, we very rarely did!). The roof terrace is a wonderful space to relax with a glass of wine, watching the sun set. Maybe better suited to couples or families with older children due to the steps and corners, but we felt comfortable and safe all the time.

Rossella is a very friendly, uncomplicated and flexible hostess. We felt very comfortable at their place. The apartment is small but has everything you need for two people. The sloping ceilings give the apartment a great charm. The large, sunny terrace is breathtaking and super nice. Despite being on the second row from the street, the sea is almost within easy reach due to the height of the terrace (3rd floor). Within walking distance are shops and the beautiful town center of Marina di Ragusa with many restaurants, bars and gelaterias. The apartment on the third floor is only accessible via stairs (the last one a bit narrow and steep). You should be good on foot - then that's not a problem. Thank you Rossella for letting us spend our vacation in your great apartment!

The apartment is huge and in a great central location. We walked everywhere. It's surrounded by fab bars and restaurants. The view from the small balconies is beautiful and we loved seeing the sea through the sitting room windows when we came in the front door. As someone else mentioned, there has obviously been a water leak at some point which could do with sorting and a couple of other areas could do with some tlc. Overall, we loved the apartment and would definitely stay here again.

I think it is the best apartment in Pozzallo.

We felt right at home, got great tips for restaurants and excursions and enjoyed the tranquility and the wonderful sea in front of the door. We recovered very well without getting bored, you can relax very well here, Robin was an attentive and relaxed host, thank you for everything and greetings to the dogs, we will definitely be back.

Such a beautiful gem of an apartment! I would fully recommend staying here! We stayed for three nights after we’d just got married in Sicily. The apartment is beautiful and just as it looks in the pictures - the roof terrace is a real bonus! It’s absolutely stunning & a great place to laze under the sun, relaxing in the day or to have an alfresco dinner in the evening. It also overlooks ruins which is super interesting. The location of the apartment is also great - a 2-3 minute walk from the lively fish market & a variety of great restaurants. Thank you for a wonderful stay!

Absolutely beautiful beach location with lovely sand and clear blue waters. Very clean, spacious and well-equipped apartment about 15-20 minutes' walk to the centre of Donnalucata along the beach. We travelled as a couple but would be fantastic place to bring children as sea is calm and fairly shallow. Very responsive host.

Everything as per the description but one point worth noting. The internet access was outstanding. Basically 800 mb down and 300 mb down. Absolutely fantastic connection is you're having a working vacation and need access to video meetings and large files.

Great stay, so close to ortigia. Great hosts.

We spent ten days at La Casa del Fotografo and loved it. The apartment was comfortable and had all the amenities we needed. We liked staying in Borgata Santa Lucia – it’s a short walk from Ortigia and all the sights of Siracusa. We immediately felt at home there, and Marco and his team made sure we had plenty of recommendations of places to see, things to do and restaurants to try. They were always available to answer our questions. We really loved the rooftop terrace – we ate breakfast and dinner there often. The apartment is spacious, spotless and very comfortable. It was a great place to have an stress-free vacation.

The apartment is in a great location. The view over Ragusa Ibla from the deck is fabulous! We happened to be there for a festival and enjoyed the fireworks from there. The apartment is modern, simply furnished with comfortable beds, and good towels. For four to gather, we had the kitchen table or the deck. Alex from the apartment team did a very good job of communicating about the location and assisted with parking. They met us and helped us get settled in. The apartment was stocked with coffee, water, and other provisions. A little market is nearby. We really enjoyed nearby Al Gradino 284 Coffee and Wine Bar where we had drinks and snacks on the steps sitting on the provided cushions and overlooking beautiful Ragusa Ibla. All in all the apartment is great.

Simonetta delivered everything she promised and more. The apartment was extremely comfortable, clean quiet and spacious. We like to cook as well as trying restaurants. Everything we needed was there. On arrival we immediately knew we’d made a great choice. A nice touch were “disposable “ slippers and quality towelling robes. Going out was a great experience, the market was practically next door selling fresh fish, meat, fruit, herbs etc. We will come again!

We loved our stay in Ortigia. The apartment was spacious and comfortable and in a great location. We found it difficult to find the apartment when we arrived though as the door was obscured by the market tables and tents and the lockbox didn’t work. Fortunately we were able to contact Aurore who assisted. Otherwise a great stay. Recommended.

The pictures don’t describe the beauty of this place. It is a step back in time that you can’t get from most other places. If you want serenity and peace surrounded by natural beauty mixed with history, this is where you must stay. We did have the heater go out on us but this was not Francesco’s fault as the heater was brand new and he was quick to make sure we had alternative heat. It is very easy to get to any of the main cities from this place. We would definitely stay there again. Thank you for being a wonderful host Francesco!

Great place. The owners turned this old farmhouse into a slice of paradise! Very well equipped accommodation, comfortable bed, wonderful garden and pool, very quiet. Ideal location to shine in Baroque Sicily!

Everything went perfectly, Luana is a great host. Highly recommend!

We had an outstanding experience here. Was excellent. Giuseppe was so welcoming and oriented us to the area and gave us recommendations. He really took pride in his and had a great personal touch. The space is very large and airy, I would say here without hesitation in the future.

A lovely apartment with good facilities and furnishings, wonderfully easy use of a private beach and not too far away to drive to the restaurants and sights of Syracuse.

A very pretty house right in front of the beautiful beach. Very comfortable and friendly host If I go to Siracusa again, I definitely want to stop by again!

Tiziana was a great host. The apartment was beautiful, well appointed, and had comfortable furnishings. The apartment is very close to all the local attractions and we were able to walk to everything we wanted to visit. We would highly recommend the unit.

Marta was a wonderful host - extremely responsive and helpful when we had questions. We thoroughly enjoyed this spacious, clean aapartment. Beautiful views of the sea and we loved the balcony. It was situated right next to the lively and fun market with lots of good restaurant choices. Everything was walkable on this gorgeous island of Ortygia. We would stay here again!

Great location Comfortable space

The apartment is bright, modern and very well furnished. The landlord was super nice and helpful. The center is within walking distance. Perfect starting point in all directions. The bus stop/bus station is right at the house and can be heard from the terrace. Basically, Sicily has a massive problem with garbage disposal, which is unfortunately clearly visible in some neighborhoods.

If you want to be a short drive from the city, but enjoy a nice quiet place with a great pool etc, although shared great sense of privacy. Then this is the perfect choice Nice a friendly host..
