Le Terrazze is the most lovely place to stay. The apartment is perfectly located to give a great view across the beautiful but untouristy city of Modica. The view from the large balcony ( terrace) provides endless hours of pleasure observing italian small city life carry on. The views as the sun goes down and the twinkly lights across the city come on is simply breathtaking. The apartment is beautiful and every need (and more with such kind gifts on arrival) are thoughtfully and generously provided. Modica is well sited for other nearby baroque towns such as Ragusa, Noto and Syrucusa (Ortegia) as well as within easy striking distance of the warm Mediterranean at Sempiere and a little further afield pretty and most attractive Punta Secca ( think Montalbano's beach home!). Also some great rural bases for walking and meandering are nearby such as Vendicari Nature Reserve, Cassible Gorge and Cava D'Ispica with its amazing history and its verdant valley. From England Modica is within half an hour of Comiso airport served by Ryanair. Modicans are famed for their chocolate but we thought their open and most generous nature their best characteristic.
