Romantic, serene property

A really beautiful property that provides modern conveniences in a wonderfully atmospheric, historic setting. Luca and Lorenzo were both very helpful, and the sprawling outdoor courtyard with fruit trees was amazing. Highly recommended.

Wonderful

Great place! Ancient decor features were very appealing. Courtyard was especially enjoyable. Property manager was very helpful in parking, assisting with our luggage, and being available for any request. Bedrooms did not have adequate storage for personal belongings. It would also be helpful to advise perspective users that location requires ascending 40-50 or so stairs. Would love to stay again!

Días maravillosos en Modica

Estuvimos en Modica 8 días en la maravillosa casa Hortus. Esta casa es un magnífico lugar de descanso. Un paraíso para los sentidos con su espléndido jardín de árboles frutales. La casa está distribuida con exquisito gusto y tiene un sinfín de detalles que te dejan con la boca abierta. Los dormitorios son de dimensiones generosas y el principal es de ensueño. Las zonas comunes son magníficas. Y el jardín.... ese jardín con vistas a la catedral donde desayunar, comer y cenar... es maravilloso en general. Luego el servicio es fantástico con un Lorenzo Falco completamente entregado. Aconsejable 100%

A Beautiful Oasis

We stayed here for 2 nights, would have stayed three- but it wasn't available. Modica is a charming historic town that needs to be visited, but to truly enjoy it's ancient charm and wonderful restaurants it's best to stay there. And this was the perfect place, a very old home that has been beautifully redone with an artist's touch. It has everything you need. But the absolute best part is its enchanted garden with its fruit and nut trees. It is totally private but set within the city so you can hear the church bells and the chatter of your Sicilian neighbors which allows you to experience what it's like to live like a local. We spent an entire day there reading and relaxing. The home is a bit tricky to find, but Luca and his team have a great system in place that makes it easy to get you there.

Magical

We were 3 couples who stayed 3 nights in Luca's apartment. We were met by Amalia at a prearranged meeting place close to the center of Modica. We followed Amalia in our 2 rental cars to a parking spot a few paces from the apartment. We entered through the main gate and found ourselves in what on first impression was a scene from " the magical garden". The house was no less impressive. Clean, airy and with every convenience necessary. The architecture reminded me of the archways in Bologna where I had studied years before. We were sad to leave both this apartment and the city of Modica which we most certainly enjoyed. Hopefully we will visit again. Thank you both again Amalia and Luca. Peace Nick
