    Small and idyllic place in the center of the old city. Perfect host. A room with a history (earthquake of 1693 destroyed the old city, then rebuild). You are on the right spot with a perfect view-breakfast in the adjacent hotel.

The name Pura Vida is a tribute to Costa Rica, an ancient house, characteristic of the 19th century, all made of stone. The Fico D'India room characterized by a barrel vault is an ancient "Dammusu". Carrubba instead characterized by an ancient water cistern with a small terrace overlooking the Hyblean panorama
We are Frank and Alessia, Lovers of travel and with a passion for tourism we try to welcome our guests making them feel at home; We will give you useful information on the area by recommending the best experiences you could have from a tourist and gastronomic point of view, thanks also to the experience gained in another accommodation facility already active for some time "Pura Vida Barocca" We are available for anything you would like to ask!
Immersed in the ancient Ragusa Ibla "iusu", the property is located a few meters from the center, with restaurants, bars, shops. At 200mt from the Cathedral of San Giorgio in Piazza Duomo
