Acceptance of Regulations
Booking accommodation at Maecò Ortigia B&B implies acceptance of these regulations.
The person making the reservation is personally responsible for compliance, including by any accompanying guests.
Rates
Prices are expressed in euros and refer to the reserved accommodation for the requested period.
The agreed rate includes utilities (electricity, water, bed and bath linen) and, where applicable, any specified meals (breakfast or others). We reserve the right to modify the published rates of our accommodations at any time and without prior notice. However, once a booking is confirmed, the agreed price (excluding any extras) will not change.
The tourist tax of the Municipality of Siracusa is due upon check‑in.
It amounts to 4% of the taxable rate, up to a maximum of €5 per person.
Exemptions apply to:
- Adults aged 80 years or older
- Minors under 14 years of age
Please note: To ensure a peaceful stay aligned with our property’s services and nature, guests must be at least 12 years old. Thank you for your understanding.

Reservations can be made online using the booking system available on our website.
To confirm a booking, guests must provide:

Maecò Ortigia B&B reserves the right to pre‑authorize credit cards.
If you prefer not to provide your credit card details via our website or other means, your booking can be confirmed with a deposit (30% of the total amount for flexible‑rate bookings or 100% for non‑refundable rates) payable by bank transfer.
Cancellation and prepayment terms vary depending on the selected accommodation type.
Please check the applicable conditions before finalizing your reservation.
The balance of your stay is due at check‑in at Maecò Ortigia B&B.
Guests may also request to pay the balance after the free‑cancellation period expires, either via bank transfer or by charging the credit card provided at booking.
For non‑refundable rates, full prepayment is required via credit card or bank transfer at the time of booking. Failure to comply with the payment deadlines will result in automatic cancellation of the reservation, and the accommodation will be made available for new requests.
For any doubts regarding the online booking system, you may request quotes or information by emailing info@maeco‑ortigia.it.
