Beachfront holiday rental in Gallina

Fantastic 3 weeks at Francesco`s beautiful apartment - superbly located on Isola Ortigia, an absoultely spectacular place. Lively even during winter and a number of sights (Neapolis is a must!). Went to the food market for fish and greens and made dinner at home every other day or so. Otherwise a number of very good restaurants within a 500m radius. Breakfast and lunches on the spectacular terrase, short/t-shirt at least half the days (when in the sun) even during winter. Francesco was very helpful when we needed some minor assistance with heating and dishwasher. The heating system was the best I have every come across in Italy - water heated radiators, not only the usual A/C. All in ll - spotless!

My husband is in a wheelchair and Maria went out of her way to rent a wheelchair for our stay. The villa looked better in person than in the pictures. Everything was clean and the kitchen well stocked, including a juicer for fresh orange juice.

Salvatore was a fantastic host. Responsive and informative on check in. Place was in a beautiful location across the road from the water and a small beach. Stunning sunsets. Unfortunately we were there on a public holiday weekend so lots of noise from the restaurants below. Otherwise perfect.

we a really good time in ognina. the apartment is pretty big and all 6 of us had enough space. in april there is not much going on in the village of ognina what we liked about it. you definitely need a car here.

The apartment is highly recommended! The location with the direct view of the sea from the balcony is absolutely unbeatable. You can walk to the beach in 2 minutes. In the nearby area, there is everything you need for a relaxing holiday and many beautiful cities and beaches can be reached quickly by car. Mariateresa was a great host who took care of all concerns very kindly and quickly! Thanks for a great stay:)

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.

We really appreciated Alessios responsiveness. He went above and beyond to ensure we were comfortable especially knowing we had a baby and toddler with us. The beds were very comfortable. Outdoor amenities cut above and proximity to beach and Noto convenient. There was construction next door that was a little disruptive but not much we could do about it and it would have been nice to use the pizza oven but finding wood was extremely difficult. Otherwise we loved the space and recommend it. Especially Alessio as a host.

Very nice unique spot, clean, peaceful, has everithing you need. a dream to wake up and walk to the beach just downstairs the street, and just a step from Duomo. I adore that neighborhood.

We stayed for 5 nights and had an amazing experience. The house was very clean, spacious and well equipped. The outdoors are unmatchable, great garden where you can hear the ocean right from the balcony. The host was very friendly and we were positively suprised by her warm welcome, where she organized snacks for our arrival and full breakfast groceries.

One of the nicest locations i have stayed in. The sea access, terrace and views could not be improved they are stunning. Siracusa itself also stunning. I wouldn't hesitate to stay again.

We loved staying with Giovanni and family whom were really friendly and helpful . The house is beautifully set above a beach with its own access . Our room was lovely with good facilities. We have spent hours over the last few days relaxing swimming and snorkelling in amazing waters . The house is in good proximity to surrounding areas of interest with a car .

We absolutely loved Alfredo’s place. Beautiful, immaculately clean, comfy bed and amazing shower. Loved the little deck sitting out area for evenings and pool to cool off. Fabulous Airbnb and Alfredo was so lovely and friendly and helpful. Great 5 days in lovely Fontane Bianchi.

thanks Saro for hosting us. we had a great week at your beautiful home. House was clean and with everything equiped we needed. 5 big beautiful bed rooms, every room with an own bath. the garden is nice and we enjoyed the pool very much (can recommend the paid heating especially with children). the beach nearby (100m) is also very beautiful and we loved the smooth walk into the water and the dunes. just as an information: there is no marker or restaurants in walking distance. but some good restaurants in 5 min distance by car, and bigger super markets in 10 min distance.

The villa was absolutely beautiful and very well equipped. We particularly enjoyed the choice of outdoor areas and the pool. Sabrina was an extremely lovely and responsive host who made sure our stay was smooth. Arriving in Catania at 8am, we were able to do an early check-in which was much appreciated. Our children also appreciated the cats who came to say hi, it reminded us of ours :) We would definitely recommend Sabrina’s place.

We had a great time staying at Antonio and his family's place! Unfortunately, our outbound flight was delayed for 3 hours and Antonio checked in with us at 2 o'clock at night and was more than friendly. The place is very well maintained, there was even water, everything for an Italian breakfast and pasta for cooking. The garden area is well maintained and the pool very pleasant. It is definitely recommended to have a car, then the beautiful old town of Syracuse can be reached in about 15 minutes and you are on the very beautiful beach in less than 5 minutes. We would definitely recommend the place in Arenella!

Francesco and Salvo have the most beautiful villa that’s very private and perfect for our family. We loved the big shaded terrace for the hot midday moments, and especially loved the pool with its wide shallow steps that were perfect for our children. We also loved the location being less than 2 mins walk from the amazing beaches with very clear Turquoise water and 5 mins walk from the excellent Lido Aqua beach with great food. It’s good to have a car to go to wonderful Noto and Marzamemmi and supermarkets etc. Francesco and Salvo are excellent hosts and helped us in many ways. The house has excellent black out because of the in built shutters! Very useful with our children, everyone slept very well. Thank you Francesco and Salvo

The place is perfect for a beautiful beach vacation. Large, bright and with everything you need. We had a couple of small issues at first but all was solved very quickly by Carmelo and his “technician” a.k.a his dad 😊. Carmelo and his family as hosts were wonderful! Carmelo was very responsive and gave us some great recommendations. We were at his place for the house birthday and were lucky enough to taste a bit of Sicilian home cooking. We generally walk everywhere so as a tip to future guests the house is very close to the beach and a bunch of good restaurants (5 minutes walking). The town centre is a decent 15 to 20 minute walk. Carmelo has some bikes you can use to get around and this I what I did to pick up morning bread and groceries. If you’re not into walking in the heat rent a car.

Wonderful location right on the beach. There are many beautiful places just around the corner that include good restaurants and markets but you need a car to get there. We loved staying here and I must say that Rosemarie is the best host ever. You have all you need there and if not, Rosemarie can provide for you. Thank you for everything. You are surely on our list if we are coming back to Sicily.

the location is exceptional here - we walked 50m to the eastern side of the island to swim every morning, and were then able to enjoy the afternoon sun and sunset from the balcony in the afternoons. the apartment itself is nice but a little dated in decor and could have been more stocked. we would have liked to cook, for example, but there was nothing at all -- oil, salt, etc. neither was there washing machine detergent. you're paying for the location and access, however, and on that front it was perfect. check-in was easy, the pin and lockbox made it simpler to leave a key when exploring and swimming, and the host was very helpful and kind. we'd come back!

Really enjoyable stay. Excellent communication on check-in. The only thing I would say is that the bedroom which looked onto the road was quite noisy until 1am on Saturday night. Friday and Saturday were fine. Other than that the apartment was beautifully renovated, had everything we needed and was well located for exploring Ortigia.

The garden is beautiful, secluded and a small oasis of green. Lots of different varieties of plants and well established trees. The small place is convenient and inside a natural reserve. A great stay.

A far too short stay for us but were immediately made welcome by this lovely family… truly the highlight of our first visit to this area of Sicily. So generous with whatever was ready from a perfect garden or the pretty chickens. A very efficient very gorgeous cottage that was a delight! Wonderful beach in walking distance by park, with enticing beach restaurant attached. It was a highlight of our vacation!!!

The hosts were amazing with communication, the villa was more beautiful than the photos! the facilities were great. Avola and nearby Noto are beautiful places. We can’t wait to come back!

The apartment is furnished in an eclectic, modern yet historical style, and very chic. Its location between the sea and the town, with its small roof terrace, makes it the perfect spot for exploring the wonderful city of Ragusa and relaxing afterward. Management by the agency WishSicily isn't very personal, but it largely works, although a request for improvements (missing parasol) was not met. Upon leaving, we met the owner, a very nice lady, but unfortunately not directly involved in the management.
