“the breathtaking views from the moment we stepped inside the main lounge, to the view from our room and the roof terrace. The friendly welcome, we were especially grateful to be offered a warm drink on our arrival. The tastefully decorated spacious room and bathroom with its fluffy towels. The convenient parking. The fantastic breakfast.”

The owner was a marvel! She greets each guest and makes sure they have everything they need. The top room has great light even though it doesn't face the sea.

Breakfasts excellent where a lovely staff member took care of us....only four of us staying at the hotel. Owner very helpful. Lovely views from breakfast/lounge room. Rooms quite dated and not up to the standard of where we stayed in other places in Sicily, but still very enjoyable. View and location excellent and a good base for travelling on day trips. Rooms and bathrooms could do with a renovation, nothing too flash, just a smarten up. Better beds would have been preferable.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this very charming and contemporary hotel. The highlight must be the crashing waves below the balcony and nothing but sea view from our room. Sabrina, the host and Giovanna were very pleasant. It's a fair hike to Ortyga (15 min.) to find a good choice of restaurants - there isn't anything of note on the Siracusa- side near the hotel. Nonetheless, the setting is fabulous.

First of all the location. You have your private beach. I took the bath in the sea at the end of October. If the sea is calm, there are no problems. There are steps to the cliff with the easy entrance into the sea. You can rent for free a swimming shoes and the mask. Strongly recommended. Than the parking. It costs 5 eur but you need it. The reception room is very large and nice decorated. The terrace for breakfast is limited but the location above the sea is great. Probably it is hot during the summer but it is very convenient in October. The breakfast was great. Limon pie is the best. To take a visit of the Siracusa I recommend to use a car and free parking facilities near the harbor (0 eur until 9 P.M., than 1 eur during the night).

Nice view from the hotel over the sea. Breakfast room was rather small, which is no problem if the wheather allows one to have breakfast on the balcony.

Seaview is more than beauteful, rooms are very comfortable, clean and cosy. Hotel managers are very polite and friendly. Breakfast is delicious and fresh. The hotel is located not far from the Ortigia, in a very convenient place. One or two times occured small problems with hot water.

Owner/hostess, Sabrina, was inviting, engaging, very helpful in facilitating our stay in Siracusa. The room was sparkling with an expansive view, and the breakfasts exceeded expectations. The b&b is just far enough away from traffic, yet within moderate walking distance of Ortigia, and driving to and from the autostrada. A delightful stay in a delightful city.

The B @ B is situated right on the water and we were able to park our car at the door for a small charge. The whole place including our room and the breakfast area has great views of the sea. A short walk up the road was a lovely restaurant also overlooking the sea. The staff could not have been more helpful. Getting to the water to swim was a bit of a problem as the coast is very rocky.The B&B does supply shoes to get to the water and its well worth it as water is crystal clear and beautiful to swim in.

We found the owner extremely helpful, the b & b beautiful, and the breakfasts really good. The only downside was the walk from the property into Ortigia - down a very run down street.

The location out of the main tourist area, quiet and right on the seaside, you can swin in the sea directly from the back step. All the sights and highlights of Siricusa are within walking distance. There is a fantastic restaurant close by with great views and fantastic food. The b&b has 6 beautifual rooms all with views, space and there is a well equiped common area. Sabrina is a fantastic host and will do anything for you, nothing is too much trouble. The breakfast had a huge choice all with local produce. We loved our stay there and would reccommend to our friends. A additional highlight of this stay was a Segway tour around the old city of Ortiga.

The fantastic breakfast. The fact that we only stayed 2 nights. OK it's a 20 minute walk from Ortiga but after that breakfast you need the exercise.

J'ai beaucoup apprécié dès notre arrivée la gentillesse de notre hôtesse qui s'est démenée pour me trouver des médicaments, et qui n'a eu de cesse d'être aux petits soins pendant trois jours. C'est un b&b très propre, confortable, calme, lumineux, avec une vue superbe, et tout est accessible à pied. Je n'ai rien à rajouter, j'ai juste envie d'y revenir plus tard. Michelle
