My husband, three adult children, and I stayed at the tower for two nights. It was a wonderful place to savor the view over the hill town of Modica. We enjoyed hearing the church bells from up high and watching sunrise and sunset from the deck. We had a lot of fun exploring the tiny walking alleys/ tiny streets extending down from the tower to the main street. Romana recommended Sampieri beach- about 25 minute drive and great for swimming and walking- several kilometers of sand.
