You'll have the entire apartment to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.
Casa Petra by Wonderful Italy
Casa Petra, a unique two-level house in Modica's characteristic alleys.
The house features unique stone-carved walls, creating a cave-like ambiance in some rooms. The ground floor offers a well-equipped kitchen with a dining area, a bedroom with a queen-sized bed, and a one-of-a-kind ensuite bathroom with a stone shower, along with another independent bathroom. A wooden staircase leads to a mezzanine floor with a comfortable double sofa bed and terrace boasting a beautiful view of Modica's historic center, furnished with tables and chairs for relaxation.
*The apartment is located in the ZTL (limited traffic zone) area, therefore we suggest leaving the car in one of the nearby parking and enjoying the old town on foot.
*Upon arrival or a few days before arrival it may be required to pay a tourist tax, which varies according to local regulations. You will find your reservation details within the Guest Area of Wonderful Italy.
We also offer our guests truly authentic experiences to live like a local. If interested, contact us and we will be more than happy to help you design an unforgettable holiday to discover Italian beauties.
City of neolithic origins, Modica is a Sicilian town included since 2002 in the list of UNESCO World Heritage sites for its masterpieces. Characterized by the presence of “dry stone walls”, the prevailing style of its monuments is the late baroque, and in this regard, it is possible to admire the mother church of the city of Modica: the sumptuous Duomo of San Giorgio, a symbol of Sicilian Baroque. Not far away, the city Museo della Memoria hosts unseen relics from the Second World War. The city of Modica is also famous for the production of chocolate, it hosts the Chocolate Museum with sculptures and tastings.
To visit the city on foot is the best way to discover the artistic beauties and Modica’s old town. During summer there is a mini tourist train “Trenino Barocco” (little Baroque train) that connects the lower part of the city with the upper part, departing from the Corso Umberto I, in front of Duomo di San Pietro.
The airport of Catania Fontanarossa is about 120 km away, while Comiso “Pio La Torre” airport is 40 km away.

un sogno ad occhi aperti
Questa casa e' magica,dolce,accogliente. E' curata in tutti i minimi particolari e dettagli.Non basterebbe un intero giorno per osservare tutti i tesori preziosi che racchiude.Non e' stato facile andare via dopo i giorni magnifici in questa citta' antica.La casa e' comodissima, il parcheggio vicino e ci sono degli scalini da fare che permettono di vedere Modica da differenti angolazioni.
In meno di due minuti, esplorando i vicoletti, si passa dalla calma del quartiere antico Cartellone alle vie eleganti del centro (... lungo le scale il profumo delle antiche pasticcerie che preparavano dolci ed il famoso cioccolato).Siamo stati accolti con gentilezza e ci sono state date tante informazioni utili.Gia' mi manca tantissimo la fiabesca atmosfera di questa casa unica. Anche io sono host su Vrbo ed anche io amo cercare nelle case i dettagli di un perfetto restauro conservativo che richiede molto tempo nella ricerca e tanta pazienza e determinazione.Le mie case ad Erice sono https://www.vrbo.com/it-it/affitto-vacanze/p6974403 https://www.vrbo.com/it-it/affitto-vacanze/p11215040 https://www.vrbo.com/it-it/affitto-vacanze/p11215022 Grazie per avere pensato a tutti i dettagli e per avere reso questo soggiorno modicano indimenticabile.
