1/2 way between upper and lower Modica it is was a perfect location for exploring the City. Plenty of parking on nearby streets, but summer may be more challenging. If you are using Google maps to navigate you need to use the the street number 51 vs 9 to get you home.

We loved this apartment. The views of Modica were amazing. The decor so well done. Plenty of room for 4. Sits above the city so must be able to climb many stairs. Day trip to Noto well worth it and of course the train ride through Modica!

Funky apartment with great views.
Funky apartment with great views.
This funky artistic apartment is in a great location and is well suited for two couples travelling together. There are two balconies with amazing views over Modica. The apartment was well equipped and very comfortable. Communication with the host went smoothly. Modica is a hill town of many steps, and the situation of the apartment might be challenging for those with mobility issues, but the view is well worth the effort.

This apartment has amazing views from both floors. While compact, it is very comfortable and fully equipped. We were given a wonderful welcome by Aurora who settled us in with chocolates and a huge selection of fruit. She remained available to us throughout our visit for help or advice. We loved shopping for food in Modica and there are wonderful salumerias everywhere. Be prepared for lots of steps - our iPhone app told us it was a 16 story walk back up from the lower part of Modica where many good restaurants are located. We enjoyed the hike however as it offered incomparable views of the town and the church of San Giorgio.

My husband and I had a very enjoyable stay at this apartment. It was our first time to Sicily and Modica is very charming. Aurora was extremely helpful getting us situated and we thoroughly enjoyed our visit here. The apartment is very quiet at night, perfect for sleeping and down time. Be prepared for lots of walking and enjoy the Modican chocolate!

This is a very beautiful house in an extraordinary city

We had a wonderful stay in Sicily over the New Year and the view of fireworks over the hillside from the balconies will stay with us for a very long time. The house is great, beautifully decorated and (so long as you can deal with lots of stairs) the location in Modica Alta is outstanding. The hosting from Aurora was faultless and we had everything we needed for a memorable holiday.

Un nido sopra Modica
Un nido sopra Modica
La scelta di questa casa e' nata dal voler vivere la nostra vacanza di"mare" in modo un po' diverso per non perdere comunque quell' atmosfera barocca che questa parte della Sicilia ti regala.Scelta decisamente vincente,perché pur essendo vicini al mare ci siamo sentiti parte integrante di questa stupenda città,dobbiamo dire soprattutto grazie a questa bella residenza che ci ha accolto in tutti i sensi come a casa nostra,grande charme,e da come il suo proprietario con estrema cura l'ha creata e resa così accogliente,alla vista che lascia senza fiato visto la sua posizione dominante e da ultimo ma non meno importante la presenza di Amalia che ti accoglie con tutta l'ospitalita' che solo i siciliani sanno dare,gentilezza e discrezione e tanti buoni ed utili consigli.Quindi grazie per averci dato la possibilità di passare questa bella vacanza in questo bellissimo nido sopra i tetti di Modica.
