ROOMS WITH A VIEW AND MUCH MORE
Not even extraordinary photographs prepared us for the views: from the entrance porch, to the livingroom/kitchen balcony, to the spacious terrace outside the bedroom. It is located just up from the main street, Corso Umberto, and directly across from Modica's cathedral, San Giorgio. Views are extraordinary as the predawn light shines golden over Modica Alta as well as the warm late afternoon sun as the lights come on, highlighting the 250 steps up to the cathedral.
The apartment was exceptionally well appointed, with every detail, from decorative touches to ample closet space and hangers behind an elegant Baroque facade. A chest of drawers was more than adequate for 2 people for 3 weeks. The kitchen was well-stocked with china, silverware and cooking utensils.
The bathroom was a real surprise, as we had more than ample hot water and plenty of water pressure. Everything we needed was there, including plenty of towels and other basics such as soap, shampoo and tissue.
Andrea and Fabio were most accommodating as hosts, solving every issue and providing directions, restaurant suggestions and more. For a 3-day or 3-week stay in Modica, you can't do better than Casa Rosa.
