    Excellent stay, place is fantastic. Very clean, everything needed for a stay and nicely situated in Ragusa. The host, Alessia met us nearby to ensure we were parked okay then took us to the apartment explaining everything necessary. The apartment is on two floors with bed and shower/toilet downstairs and kitchen upstairs. Bed was comfortable and plenty of hot water. Breakfast was in a nearby hotel which had a fabulous terrace with great views. Breakfast itself was good consisting of a buffet with eggs, bacon, fruit, cereal and the best pastries I've had at a hotel for breakfast. Would totally recommend this place.

    Beautiful, clean, and nicely decorated apartment in the heart of Ragusa Ibla. Alessia, our host, was incredibly helpful and kind! She assisted in our parking and explained everything in detail so we felt comfortable and knowledgeable of what to do in the city.

    Lovely host and a beautiful location!! Ended up in the local Irish pub. Would recommend everybody to visit that pub. It's very cozy and all the cool people from Ragusa go there in the evening. It's easy to make friends there!

    The hosts picked us up from the bus station late at night, which was super nice of them. The room itself is centrally located, spacious, clean, good bed/bathroom, cute decor. Since it's a historic building there were a couple of fun remnants like a water well on the premises, even though it's no longer being used.

    Didn't like being asked to give a rating of 10, that is a decision for the guest to make without pressure.

    Good communication with Alessia, location and being part of old town.

    Pura Vida is beautiful, full of character, an absolute delight and perfect in every way. Alessia has great taste in decor and her attention to detail is faultless. She was super lovely and helpful too. Can’t rate this place high enough - stay here! Oh, and the bed is the best we’ve slept on in 4 weeks of travelling.

    Parking space is not directly at the place (within traffic restricted area) and a steep slope is in-between. But it is free and car is not needed in Ragusa.

    The host was extremely friendly. He took time to give us precious tips about the city sightseeing and restaurants. The room is very clean, cozy and nothing is missing.

    Ragusa is challenging to park , but the check-in and location for parking were made easy by the hosts. It is close to good restaurants without having to navigate multiple steps . The room was very well equipped, including with coffes / tea making facilities

    The floor is very cold, because the room is basically set into the hillside. BUT there is air conditioning and a heater in the bathroom.

    The place looks quite new. Or very well maintained. It had everything we could want. Kitchen is up a spiral staircase and had most of the gear needed for basic cooking. Nice view from the kitchen. Lovely ambience in the room. Alessia and Franco are lovely and extremely helpful. I kept asking her questions via WhatsApp and getting prompt responses. Breakfast is at a 4 star hotel about 50 metres up the road and is great.

    Confusing to find initially, but no problem afterwards. Sprained ankle hiking la Roca of Cefalu so all the stairs were challenging, but we would stay here again.

    Clean, very quiet, spacious rooms with well stocked kitchenette which we enjoyed using. Everything worked. Good location to attractions.
