À propos de cet hébergement

Large villa with solar htd pool,tennis court,jacuzzi hot tub,playground for kids

  • Villa Modica is immersed in the picturesque Sicilian countryside, a short distance from the Baroque city of Modica. It is a perfect family luxury holiday villa, blending modern comforts afforded by renovation, with the timeless charm and character of Sicilian country architecture. The focal point of the outdoor space is the large ( 6 x 12 meter) salt water, solar heated, swimming pool, terraced into the sloping landscape of the surrounding valley. The professional tennis court is also a place to enjoy a game of tennis with friends or family. After a day of sports or touring, you can relax in the hot tub jacuzzi which seats five people, and enjoy its panoramic view.

    The Villa Space

    As you enter the private parking area, you are greeted by the sight of characteristic stone pillars flanking a traditional gate. The warm colours of the sun-bleached dry stone walls give a sense of rustic elegance. Intricate details in the landscape and garden pay homage to the rich architectural and natural heritage of the land.

    Walking through to the main entrance, you are welcomed into a spacious living room area which connects to a large, well-equipped, kitchen with dining area where the high ceiling is adorned with decorated stuccos, typical of Sicilian decor.

    There are five elegantly appointed bedrooms each with air-condition and central heating, 2 rooms with king-sized beds and 3 rooms with 2 single beds each which can easily be joined together upon request, all with high quality mattresses. The bedrooms are large, with private baths, and an enclosed glass veranda offers panoramic views of the valley below. The rooms are designed for utmost comfort and privacy.

    The spacious outdoor grounds are dotted with fruit trees, grape vines, and blackberry brambles. As well as the above mentioned pool and jacuzzi, next to the jacuzzi there is a Zen area with ancient stone walls, nestled into the grounds, creating an atmosphere of tranquility and serenity.

    Guest access

    The property is private and for the exclusive use of its guests.

    Maid service or a cook for an original Sicilian meal can be arranged at the time of booking.

    At the far corner of the property, we have Happy Farm a petting zoo of domestic animals. There is a pony, a donkey, chickens, ducks, geese, Tibetan goats, and much more, which kids and adults can interact with.

A truly special place

My family and I enjoyed a fantastic stay at George and Antonella’s beautiful home. This is not a typical vacation home, but an experience. The pool, the hot tub, the playground, and the farm animals all provided hours of entertainment for our kids and adults. The view over the valley is breathtaking, and we wish we could’ve stayed longer. We’d love to return someday.

Familienfreundliche Villa mit überaus freundlichem Vermieter.

Wir haben in dieser schicken Villa mit grandiosem Ausblick als Familie mit 10 Personen Urlaub gemacht. Wir wurden vom Vermieter überaus freundlich mit Willkommensessen und Wein empfangen. Auch alles andere war sehr gut vorhanden: Küchenausstattung, Poolhandtücher, Waschmaschine… Da es zu Ostern noch etwas kühl war, wurde für uns sofort gegen Abend die Heizung angestellt, der Whirlpool schön warm temperiert… So nett wurden wir noch nie empfangen.

Fantastic villa with all the facilities you could want for a family break and a wonderful host.

We had a brilliant time at the villa which we stayed in with our two children, another family and their baby and our nanny and her boyfriend. The villa and its external facilities were more than big enough to absorb us all without ever feeling cramped. The pictures show the villa as it is; certainly not slick and modern but very comfortable and with everything you might expect and need to make your holiday run smoothly (plus extras) . Externally the grounds, landscaping and facilities are fabulous. The pool is delightful and the tennis court is fantastic. The situation is rural and requires a car but is the shortest of drives from Modica with all its charm and amenities. Perhaps the greatest asset of the property is the owner George who could not possibly have been more helpful and welcoming, from the moment of booking. He always managed to achieve this without being intrusive or overbearing. He helped us in arranging outings, taxis and take aways and a chef to come and cook several delicious evening meals for us. His assistance really was invaluable. We would highly recommend this villa.

Great Place with good Energy and super friendly hosts

We celebrated the New Year in this wonderful villa with friends and family (five families, including one couple in a separate room). The villa is spacious, perfect for a large group with kids aged (ours aged 9). Giorgio welcomed us with two delicious dishes, 10 liters of wine, and his own olive oil, which was fantastic! We’re already excited about the promised delivery of more oil and pasta, planning to recreate the villa’s charm during the Berlin winter with treats from a local patisserie.The kids loved the animals, especially the pony and donkey, and spent hours exploring the vast 4-hectare property, playing hide-and-seek. The tennis court and table tennis setup kept everyone active. The orange trees were a highlight, providing fresh juice every morning. Modica’s proximity made day trips easy, and the nearby beaches were also a treat.Although the pool wasn’t heated due to cold nights, we turned it into an ice bath, making the hot tub even more enjoyable. A temporary heating issue in the villa was quickly addressed by Giorgio, whose communication was warm and efficient.This villa offers comfort, charm, and excellent activities. It’s perfect for creating unforgettable memories. Highly recommended, and we look forward to returning!

Amazing Villa Outside Modica

We can’t imagine a more wonderful villa in Sicily for our visiting family of two grandparents, married son, his wife, and two children ages 5 and 8. The nearby owner and his family were terrific. It exceeded the description and our expectatiobs.

Gastfreundschaft pur - toller Familienurlaub

Wir (2 Großeltern, 2 Eltern und 2 kleine Kinder mit 2 und 5 Jahren) waren Anfang Oktober 2021 bei Giorgio und seiner Frau zu Gast und waren sehr begeistert. Wir machen häufig Ferienwohnung-Urlaube in den unterschiedlichsten Ländern und waren bist daher auch nie enttäuscht, aber diese hier in Sizilien ist einzigartig. Unser Auswahlkriterium war hauptsächlich der beheizte Pool wegen der Kinder. Und das war super. Das Wasser war häufig wärmer (ca. 27 Grad) als draußen und wir haben ihn viel genutzt. Auch den Whirlpool mit seiner tollen Aussicht haben wir viel genutzt. Wir waren ständig hin und her gerissen, ob wir denn nun einen Tagesausflug machen sollten, oder einfach nur die Villa geniessen sollten. Die Villa selbst ist sehr geräumig, sauber und mit allem, wirklich allem ausgestattet was man brauchen könnte. Die Anlage ist sehr gepflegt, Pool, Whirlpool, Spielplatz, Tennisplatz (super für die Kinder zum Fahrrad fahren, Fussball spielen, oder Laufrad fahren - alles übrigens vorhanden) sind nur einige Dinge. Wir haben auch sehr die Bepflanzung genossen. Zitronenbäume, Granatapfel- und Kaki-Baum mit reifen Früchten, und und und... Die vieln großzügigen Balkone und Terassen liessen uns immer in der Sonne frühstücken, oder abends grillen.... (oder 2 mal auch eine Pizza bestellt und in der Sonne genossen) Nun zum Vermieter: Der Buchungsprozess und die gesamte Betreuung war äußerst unkompliziert und alles via WhatsApp möglich. Das war genial. Speziell im Vorfeld zur Planung der Packliste. Aber auch dann vor Ort, Giorgio schickt ständig Restauranttipps, oder Tipps was man machen kann, wo man einkaufen kann, wo ein Bäcker ist... via WhatsApp. Genial. Seine Gastfreundschaft ist unübertroffen. Ständig stand er mit Rat und Tat zur Seite, oder ließ uns auf Wunsch auch reifes Obst und Gemüse in seinem Garten probieren (aber niemals aufdringlich, keine Sorge)... Übrigens hat Giorgio bereits den Kühlschrank zumindest mit Bier, Wein, Grundnahrungsmitteln (Butter, Toastbrot, Salat, Käse, Wasser, Tomaten, Obst....) gefüllt.... das war genial, dass man nicht direkt am ersten Tag in den Supermarkt musst.... Was bleibt zu sagen? Ehrlich 5 Sterne plus.... und wenn es irgendwie geht, kommen wir sehr sehr sehr sehr gerne wieder

Perfect family villa

This villa is probably one of the best value properties you are likely to find anywhere in Italy! It has something for all ages from infants right up to grandparents. The outside space is amazing with a great size pool(the best we’ve ever had), wonderful hot tub and a terrace with fabulous views to Modica. We loved popping down to see the animals each day and the hearing the occasional bray of the donkey! The rooms inside are spacious and cool and are kitted out with everything you could possibly need. We cooked on the terrace, where there is a choice of gas or charcoal BBQ, and in the kitchen where there is enough crockery, cutlery, cookware for everyone including some durable for infants and young children. They really have thought of everything!!! And of course, as previous reviewers have said, there is Georgio!!! He really is a gem- the most helpful guy and also very informative, especially about all the requirements for Covid. It was very reassuring knowing he was on hand if we needed him. We had a fantastic holiday and would thoroughly recommend this villa to anyone who wants a homely villa with amazing outside amenities. We would love to return! Thanks for everything!

Just WOW

I am going to find it difficult to actually give George's house the justice it deserves - it is extremely special. My family and I have stayed in many houses in Portugal, Greece and Italy and this was the most impressive for sure. There are just so many great things about it.. Here are some highlights: The swimming pool - perfect size with lots of space for lounging, the gardens - beautiful plants and trees with wonderful fruits and vegetables to eat, the tennis court - very well kept and rackets and balls available, the farmyard - lots of cute animals for the kids and the beds - all very comfortable and rooms very nice. My personal favourite part of the house is the outdoor area for eating, equipped with a BBQ and a wonderful view of Modica - we had some great and late nights there! This house is fabulous for kids and adults alike. Now a word on Modica itself, because it is a fantastic town. This was our second trip there and I was shocked when I opened the Sicily Lonely Planet and saw Modica wasn't one of their '14 highlights of Sicily'. Big mistake guys. But you know what maybe that's a good thing because Modica may stay off the tourist trail! Modica is a foodie's dream. I have had the best pasta, pizza, ice cream and chocolate of my life there. The chocolate is incomparable to anything you will taste in Europe. We went to some wonderful restaurants and bars. We did the train tour of the town which was a big hit with the kids. We wandered the incredibly narrow streets of Modica Allta which is like somewhere stuck in time - in a very charming way. I highly recommend checking out Goccia cocktail bar where we had an amazing night! Finally a word for our hosts, George and Antonella. We have never felt so looked after. From the first moment to the last, they did everything they could to help us enjoy our stay. We arrived to a home cooked meal, they were always there for any questions we had and they gave us some great recommendations for things to do. Thank you, thank you, thank you. I feel like we were living a dream of some kind.

Absolutely amazing

The property was amazingly clean and actually much more than we expected. There was more than enough space for 3 families and the heated pool and tenniscourt was used everyday of our stay at the end of October. The farmyard blew the kids away and they loved collecting fresh eggs in the morning and helping feed Zeus (the donkey), Snuggles the miniature goat and all the rabbits and birds. George was the best host we have ever had and was always available to sort anything out, give us advice and even took the time to be our personal Tourguide. His English is perfect, communication instant and love of Modica and Sicily infectious. Our stay was perfect. Whether the property itself, the amenities the closeness and access to all the beautiful towns around it or the seaside and best of all was our host, George. We cannot recommended Villa Modica enough and we will be back soon!

A truly memorable holiday

We booked a last minute trip to Sicily during the covid pandemic and the ever changing 'air bridge' quarantine advice from the UK government. I don't think anyone believed we would actually make it, but thankfully we did and it was exactly what we needed. Our entire experience was faultless, from George's very generous 100% refund policy if we has to cancel due to the pandemic, to the incredible welcome meal, drinks and grocery shop. The villa and grounds were stunning and the kids (aged 1-8) were all catered for superbly. From collecting eggs in the morning to an array of toddler friendly toys and cutlery - everything you could imagine needing has already been thought of and provided. I can't imagine we will ever have a holiday like this again, and it couldn't have come at a better time.

Fantastic family villa

Without doubt the villa is the most family-friendly villa we have ever rented. There's many things which impressed us about our holiday. The villa was spotlessly clean when we arrived. The owners had done a shop for groceries which were ready for our arrival. They prepared a lovely Sicilian meal for us as some of our party were arriving late and also left us plenty of wine from their vineyard for our meal. The villa has plenty of toys and games and is equipped with everything you need for your stay. Unusually in my experience there's a large fridge freezer in the kitchen which was more than capable of chilling all our food. The pool is fenced which makes for a more relaxing time when you have little children with you. The pool is kept lovely and warm even in September which meant we spent lots of time in it. Our hosts live next door and were always on hand to help if we needed pizzas ordered or we wanted advice of where to eat. George was also kind enough to come and find us when our sat navs failed to get us to the villa. All in all we had a wonderful time and this was in no small part down to the owners and their lovely villa. Thanks from all of us

A genuine pleasure

Villa Modica was an absolute treat from the moment we arrived. From all the goodies left for us by George and Nina to our last day when the children helped collect fresh eggs from the chickens. We had a wonderful week and thoroughly enjoyed our trip to Sicily. Our hosts couldn't have been more welcoming, while respecting our privacy at the same time. The space itself is a great size, especially with the pool, tennis courts and Zeus the donkey! I would highly recommend. Thanks George and Nina.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here in September 2018. Lovely property in a good location.

Great property, well maintained and all facilities you could possibly need. It was lovely to arrive to a welcoming and delicious home cooked lasagne - how nice not to have to cook on our first night. Some basic provisions were provided which also meant there was no need to shop on the way. George was always on hand to help if needed, but without being intrusive, introducing us to the family at the local supermarket, showing us the best place for breakfast and even ordering pizzas! The villa is well placed to explore the many towns in the south east of the island, but also not too far away to explore Mount Etna and the also the larger towns in the north east such as Taormina (well worth the drive). The fresh pomegranates, picked directly from the tree by the pool were delicious! We would highly recommend this villa. Martin

Beautiful setting, comfy, gracious host

We had a wonderful time at Giorgio's villa and would stay there again in a heartbeat. The town of Modica is a lovely town worthy of many hours of ambling, ogling and general chilling. From here, we were able to take day trips to Siracusa, Mt. Etna, Ragusa, Noto and a number of other gorgeous locales. As for the villa itself, the grounds were gorgeous, set on a hillside overlooking a valley and the hills beyond. Giorgio has a real eye for beauty and the property is landscaped with flowers galore, as well as a lovely pool, a petting zoo (Giorgio has a soft spot for homeless donkeys, goats, peacocks and other fowl, dogs and perhaps even a stray giraffe or two -- great for kids!). The accommodations were spacious and well-equipped. We were a group of 12 and everyone seemed to have comfortable beds, air conditioning when we needed it, private or semi-private bathrooms, a fully equipped kitchen and a couple of patios for eating out and generally lounging. But the biggest attraction was Giorgio, our host, who lives inconspicuously on the property with his family. Giorgio made himself available to drive us places; he made suggestions about where to go and when best to go there; he introduced us to friends who ran local restaurants and stores; he gave us tours of farms and wineries he either owned or did business with (it wasn't always clear, as everybody seemed to be family with Giorgio); two of his friends gave us a cooking class which resulted in a spectacular dinner; and he and friends even serenaded us all with a poolside concert one evening. While he was an incredibly gracious and helpful host, always available whenever we needed his assistance, Giorgio was very respectful of our privacy and his presence was never intrusive. I would definitely stay here again and would highly recommend it to anyone interested in a stay in southern Sicily.

We enjoyed every minute of our three week stay.

The villa is very comfortable, with spacious bedrooms, and a very well-equipped kitchen. There is excellent wifi. A folder in the lounge has detailed information on the area and activities that can be arranged. The villa has outside terraces on which you can always choose whether to sit in sun or shade, with lovely views and an excellent pool set in a delightful garden. The villa and its garden are large enough for people to socialise if they wish or to find a quiet place to read undisturbed. It is a very peaceful and relaxing place to stay. It is a short drive to Modica, with easy parking. We spent several days exploring its picturesque streets, fine churches and welcoming cafés and restaurants. Modica is a great base for visiting the UNESCO World Heritage (and Montalbano) towns of Ragusa, Scicli and Noto. All of these are in very easy reach, while a longer day out would take you to the stunning sites of Villa Romana del Casale at Piazza Armerina, Siracusa, Ortigia and the ceramics at Caltagirone. There are also many wonderful beaches within easy reach. We thoroughly enjoyed the activities which Giorgio arranged for us. The visit to a ricotta farm was delightful, seeing the process, eating a hearty lunch with wine, followed by a short walk to see the local crops and animals. At the Fair Trade chocolate laboratory, we not only enjoyed tasting the product but also found the explanation of the Foundation’s aims and methods very inspiring. The visit to the local winery was very well presented, offering us tastings of each of their wines, accompanied by delicious snacks. We were also given fascinating information about the production of both still wines and spumante. Giorgio was also very helpful in recommending excellent local restaurants. On each of our three weeks, a highlight was the evening when Maria and Anna cooked a delicious three course dinner for us. We enjoyed watching the preparation almost as much as eating the results. Giorgio is a very knowledgeable and helpful host. We thoroughly recommend Villa Modica. Peter and Felicity

our wonderful holiday at villa modica

Villa modica is a great place in an amazing location with great facilities.George was really welcoming and made us feel totally at home.He was wonderful with the kids and very helpful in every way. Nothing was too much trouble for him. We loved being able to pick fresh mulberries, medlers and herbs for our use and ejoyed the fresh eggs, broad beans and artichokes. The kids loved being able to feed the chickens and goats,hold the baby chicks and tortoises and brush Zeus the donkey. The young adults loved their meal out at the fish restaurant recommended by George.As all the family said" it was SO good." We would highly recommend a stay at Villa Modica.

Stellar retreat

We arrived at th beginning of the second week in March to be greeted by plenty of blue skies and sunshine. Villa Modica was thoroughly enchanting with its gorgeous swimming pool, large rooms and even larger kitchen and stunning views from the expansive terrace over The Valley and Modica Alta or Upper Modica straddling the hills across. Dawn and dusk, the views were especially memorable. Modica itself is only a 10 minute drive form the villa where we were delighted to find buildings with baroque facades, sidewalk cafes, a wonderful archeological museum and very grand and ornate churches such as St. John the Baptist in Upper Modica and San Giorgio and San Pietro located along the Corso Umberto. Our villa was cleaned every week, we could pick oranges and lemons right off the trees outside, and our host Giorgio and his gracious wife Antonella couldn’t do enough. We loved them. There is a one star Michelin restaurant called Accursio on Via Grimaldi, and many other choices of the less exalted variety that are reasonably priced and feature Italian and Sicilian dishes. Most of the produce is grown in this area, the tomatoes especially delicious. We would have no difficulty recommending Villa Modica for a week or two or three. And. We have memories forever.

Fantastic! Stunning views, facilities and owner

It was our first time to Sicily. Travelling with 3 young children and the Grand parents. Found the villa on the internet so always a concern but the villa and owner exceeded all of our expectations. George and his wife were amazing hosts. He was there to greet us and guide us in on the phone (even though it was late at night) and we had a fantastic, Sicilian lasagne prepared in the oven for us and some essentials, including a bottle of wine. He left us to it, but was always at the end of the phone for restaurant recommendations or bookings and the children loved him due to his 3 rules for children whilst they are there: "Fun, fun, fun!". And fun they had. Heated pool, full size tennis court, table football, table tennis, rope swings, zip wire, their own playground with ride on toys and a mini farm/zoo with goats and chickens and a donkey. The highlight was going to collect eggs with George. The villa had everything you needed. So spacious and added bonuses of great wifi, lots of english films, netflix and even toys for the baby. The pool was absolutely stunning. Spotlessly clean. A bit cool for me in October as you'd expect but the kids didn't seem to mind at all. Plenty of comfy, modern loungers around it to relax on and admire the views. Heaven! Peace and quiet, secluded with vast views yet so close to the gorgeous, historical centre of Modica, where George can tell you all the best places to go. Plenty of places to visit nearby too. A truly amazing, huge, family holiday villa for young and old. Will definitely return!

Super villa large enough to accommodate a family party whilst also giving everyone "their own space"

The whole family absolutely loved our one week stay in October at villa modica. Using the co-ordinates we drove from Catania airport direct to villa modica avoiding modica centre - an easy drive - making a mandatory stop at lidl on the way (at Rossini)- for the all important wine etc. On arrival we were met by Georgiou who gave us a tour of the property and grounds. We were so surprised to note that there was an extremely generous grocery pack including wine - and that Nina had cooked a fabulous lasagne (who could ask for more! - we have never experienced such generosity in any villa stay before- and we have sampled many over the years). The weather was excellent and although the pool was a little chilly the children (and not forgetting mother!) enjoyed the pool every day. Georgiou was so helpful and assisted us with a wine tour/tasting and also olive pressing - both a great experience. There was also a restaurant recommendation for "maria fidoni" at frigintini so we gave it a try and were so pleased we did. Although there was no English spoken (who needs! its more fun!). The evening meal took the form of a fixed time/fixed price menu - several courses- with carafe of red wine (20 euro each). The food was all home made and was wonderful. Whilst there are many places to eat in modica, do give this a try - you wont' be disappointed. Villa modica is a lovely family villa - very well equipped - so if you have forgotten anything you will be sure to find it here). There are lots of animals for the children to see - donkey - goats - chickens, ducks, peafowl etc and with the super zip wire/children's playground - plenty to keep children occupied.

An elegant, beautiful property, magnificent views

We had two wonderful weeks at Villa Modica this summer. We loved having breakfast in the glassed veranda with beautiful vistas on all sides. What a wonderful way to start each day. Giorgio, the owner, is the kindest and most helpful host anyone could dream of. He made us feel so welcome and at home. The location of the villa is excellent with spectacular views , tranquility, and yet is only ten minutes from the lively historic center of Modica. The swimming pool is surrounded by fruit trees and a lovely garden. The villa is very well equipped with everything you might need and, in addition, hundreds of films available for viewing on a large HD TV. Giorgio is a fantastic resource. He can arrange for you to participate in making ricotta at a local farm will you will be served a fabulous meal and can recommend every level of restaurant, and winery tours. Although, we did not bring our grandchildren on this trip, we were delighted to see a playground, tree house, and petting farm. As a wonderful father, Giorgion knows what makes children happy. We recommend the Villa Modica as a great place to relax and be taken care of by a remarkable host. Thank you, Giorgio!
