Do you have a question about this home or the local area?
Picturesquely set just next to a rocky beach, and just a short drive from Modica and its sandy beaches, this exclusive complex makes for a lovely base for families and groups of friends. For those seeking privacy, the home is split between the main villa and a separate, smaller home, where you’ll find four of the nine bedrooms, as well as an additional kitchen and living room. There’s a stunning pool here inviting you to kick back and relax while enjoying the sea vistas. The outdoor areas also have plenty of space for alfresco dining and sunset drinks, while the interiors of both homes are sleek and comfy. Do bear in mind that there are quite a few stairs to climb here, so children will need to be supervised.
