Parking is next to the house Casa Modesta is unique. Winter and summer, guests will find they should never have to compromise on the levels of comfort they enjoy at home. From the joy of cooking in the fabulously well-appointed kitchen to the bliss of rejuvenating sleep afforded by the luxurious beds, everything has been carefully planned and designed to make this a genuinely five star experience. As its name suggests, Casa Modesta presents itself as a simple cottage which, although recently rebuilt, retains much of its original character. Modesty, however usually belies a beautiful secret waiting to be discovered and our property is no exception to the rule. Walking through the front door of Casa Modesta is like opening a jewel box. The natural neutral tones of the building's facade do not prepare you for the richness of colour and texture inside. Outside, guests can take a walk through rows of almond trees or sit by the swimming pool and watch the sunset turn the vineyards orange and purple. There is no doubt that Sicily has many grand palazzos and villas which offer holidaymakers spectacular views, and spacious accommodation. Along with the hefty rental charge however comes, inevitably, dodgy plumbing, uncomfortable beds, ill equipped kitchens and no central heating. The owners of this property have prioritised comfort over everything. The love and care poured into the restoration of this rustic almond pickers’ storehouse is evident from the natural render and stone detailing on the outside of the building to the double height feature stone wall in the main living area. Interior walls are plastered with stucco rather than rendered with concrete which gives them a luxurious cool smooth feel. The walls of the main building are two feet thick which ensures the heat of the day is kept out and, in winter months when the usually balmy days become cooler at night, all is cosy and warm inside. In the kitchen guests will find everything they need to transform the incomparable local fish, vegetables and fruit into healthy and delicious feasts. There is a top of the range under counter oven/grill, a gas hob, fridge freezer, dishwasher and plenty of cutlery and utensils, pots and pans. Opening the large cupboard doors in the living area will reveal shelves of beautiful crockery and glassware. Meals on the terrace are made all the more magical when the table is adorned with jewel coloured glasses, exotically glazed dishes and, of course, plenty of candles and lanterns. The main living area also has a comfortable sofa and a television for evening relaxation. There are plenty of good books to share around and a Sonos sound system to provide the soundtrack to your evening. The master bedroom has a king size oak canopy bed. The bed linen is crisp white Egyptian cotton with a super comfortable Eve mattress. There is a large French antique wardrobe and a glass sliding door leading out to a private terrace. The luxuriously appointed en suite bathroom has two basins, shower and toilet. The mezzanine provides one of the many hidden delights of Casa Modesta. A stunning picture window which spans almost the whole width of the upper floor. The view from this window is gorgeous, especially at sunset. Guests can stay in two singles or one superking bed and will enjoy bed linen and mattresses just as luxurious as in the master bedroom. There is also a trundle bed for an extra child. Privacy is provided by a panel of Indian carved screens extending across the mezzanine. The large family bathroom can be found just off the main living area. It has an oversized shower and a wardrobe style linen cupboard. In the utility room, guests will find a washing machine, iron and ironing board and general cleaning materials. There are three air conditioning units regulating the temperature of the main living area, mezzanine and master bedroom and under floor heating in the living area, master bedroom and both bathrooms to provide gentle even warmth in the cooler months. ## Property amenities ### Pool/Spa -

The house is so peaceful and cozy. The pool and grounds are so lovely and a wonderful place to relax. ##### Michalena S.

We stayed in this house for two weeks in September, and could not have been more impressed. We have rented many houses over the years, and this one is a stand out, particularly the wonderful landscaping that included a variety of plants and trees (I think we counted 6-7 different varieties of food-bearing trees!). Also of note, which we had never experienced before, was the "self cleaning" nature of the pool which meant there were no bugs floating around or other detritus. Truly remarkable! Vanessa, our host, could not have been more accommodating and provided an abundance of helpful information. Pietro and Guisi were lovely, and around to help, when needed. As there were two different outdoor table locations around the house, providing two splendid views, we ate dinner at home every night, using the outdoor grill. For New Yorkers, this place was paradise! ##### Blair L.

Great pleasure to wake up and sit in the fabulous garden. The children loved the beautiful pool and spent a lot of time in there. The views all around the estate are spectacular. Nice beaches are only a short drive distance and within 30 mins to 1 hour reach are towns like Noto, Syracuse, Modica, Ragusa. The owner is very nice and puts in a great effort to make everything go smoothly. Thank you! ##### Sebastiaan V.

The star is the out side space, swimming pool excellent, all problems we had were resolved quickly, even taking away stray dog! The area is not a primary tourist place, more a market garden region, tomato’s especially, locally they seem to an issue with rubbish, as the local council has abandoned collection, but the villa is immaculate. ##### Philip B.

The next village is Pacchino in the south, approx. 4km away. Noto, more in the north, in similar distance. A car is recommended. There is really nothing you'd miss. The home is tastefully decorated, there's a wonderful pool and a barbecue area in the garden and the house offers all amenities you can imagine leaving no wish unfulfilled. And if it does, the landlord is available to give help in both word and deed. Absolutely recommendable! ##### Marcus S. Stayed 7 nights in Jun 2017 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Melanie S., London 9 Oct 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Serene Sicilian retreat The house, gardens and pool were fabulous and perfect for a family month away to enjoy a slice of living in Sicily. The communication and assistance provided by Vanessa was brilliant and so helpful and helped us to fully enjoy our stay here. The location set almost the olive and almond groves and overlooking the vines surrounded by fruit trees, herbs and cacti was wonderfully calming and so peaceful. It was great to meet the neighbouring farmer and see the harvesting of the grapes and olives on our doorstep which is so much what this area is about. The fresh produce especially local Pachino tomatoes were wonderful and perfect for staying in cooking a lovely dinner and enjoying with the local Nero D’Avola wine. With the small town only a 5 min drive away for everyday essential groceries and fresh bread and San Lorenzo beach club so close with a superb sandy beach and the beauty of baroque Noto only 20mins away for a late breakfast or leisurely lunch and stroll we couldn’t have wished for a better location. We managed to visit Marzamemi, Capo Passero , Ragusa, Modica, Scicli and Chiaramonte Gulfi all from the house by car and recommend them all especially Ristorante Majore in Chiaramonte Gulfi for a truly authentic Sicilian lunch focussed on local specialty pork. Time flew and we didn’t want to leave! ##### Melanie S.

It is a lovely house in a delightful garden setting surrounded by olive and almond trees with vines being grown next door. Very peaceful and relaxing. The house's design has been carefully considered and is maintained to a high standard. It is very well equipped, clean and comfortable including outdoor seating. Vanessa is a great host and provided lots of helpful information and advice which meant we got the most out of our local sight-seeing, restaurants etc. The welcome pack and opportunity to purchase a Sicilian supper for your arrival was very welcome, plentiful and to be recommended. We also enjoyed the Fuedo Maccari local wine... you can't get much more local! Casa Modesta more than lives up to its five star rating, we had a very happy stay, and on discovering no-one was coming in immediately after us, had major problems refraining from staying on. We will certainly return. ##### Adrian W.

C'est certainement la piscine la plus propre (aucun insecte) que nous ayons vue dans tous nos séjours en Sicile et en Italie. Cet endroit conviendra en particulier aux couples sans enfants (ou avec enfants en bas âge). Les propriétaires sont totalement disponibles et extrêmement attentifs au moindre problème (nous n'en avons eu aucun!). Casa Modesta n'est certainement pas la location la moins chère en Sicile, mais il suffit de passer une heure dans cet endroit magique pour comprendre pourquoi. Si nous devions revenir dans cette région à l'avenir, c'est certainement à la Casa Modesta que nous penserions. Christine & Luc (Bruxelles) ##### Luc V.

Les extérieurs, piscine et jardin sont très soignés. La maison est très bien équipée. La chambre est très agréable, bonne literie. Vanessa a été parfaite dans sa communication et son organisation à distance et à l'écoute et réactive durant le séjour. La maison était prête et accueillante à notre arrivée. Le chauffage par le sol est efficace et confortable. Bon produit, bonne prestation. Une très bonne semaine de grand repos. Merci. Pour réflexion : nous avons eu quelques jours de pluie, un petit endroit à l'extérieur "protégé" de la pluie m'aurait plu car les températures extérieures et le panorama m'étaient agréables. Nous aurions aimé que vous compreniez notre demande de prise dès lieux le plus tôt possible... nous étions accompagnés d'un bébé de 4mois et souhaitions écourter le temps de transit. Mais 16h30, ca l'a fait. Cordialement. ##### Boudigou P.

It is set in a flower filled garden, with small lawns, terraces and surrounded by a landscape of olive trees, vineyards, scattered traditional farmhouses and view towards the distant hills above Noto. We forego the local beaches for the lovely swimming pool, peace and quiet - even the neighbouring farmer bashed his olive trees quietly ! There is so much historic interest close by, Noto Antica is worth exploring, atmospheric and hidden away, rambling ruins along the ridge. Vanessa’s detailed info was great, saved time and was very useful - the App for finding bakery etc really good, fresh warm ciabatta even at 5pm! The local wine, red and rose Fuedo Maccari is quite delicious - bought from the roadside ‘cantina’ you can see from the house. Vanessa was very helpful and quick to respond to any queries at the booking stage and whilst we were there. We would love to return. ##### Sarah C.

Beds very comfy, air con very effective. Showers great with no hot water issues. Good storage in bedrooms. The kitchen and bbq facilities all really good. Great washing machine. Pool was lovely and the seating around it plentiful and comfortable. Flies were a nuisance but I guess you get some insects troubling you wherever you are around here. Other little bother on some days was the neighbours generator used for an agricultural function of some sort. Other than that it was tranquil. We’d certainly come back again if we return here. Still have places we didn’t visit and we aborted our walk to cava grande as it was 41 degrees when we got there! ##### Tim dudderidge D.

Fantastic stay What a beautiful place to stay. The house was charming and well-stocked and we spent a lot of time in the lovely pool just taking in the surroundings with our two teenagers. Vanessa went above and beyond, booking us reservations with the best views, providing recommendations and always answering any inquiries we had. We also managed to cook our own fresh seafood dinners with shrimp and calamari from the local fishmonger. Trips to the nearby beaches and to Noto capped it all off, but have to admit that just staying at the house was amazing too. We have already recommended to friends and family. ##### Julia F.

We as repeat guests love it so much. Simply a great property in a wonderful environment and the communication with Vanessa is always prompt and hands on.

Schöner, großer Pool, liebevoll angelegter Garten und top Ausstattung an der es an nichts mangelt. Die Vermieterin war immer ansprechbar und hat tolle Tipps gegeben. Sehr freundlich und familiär. Wunderbarer Strand in der Nähe und sehr sympathisches Städtchen. Etwas ganz Besonderes! ##### Julia F.

It has a beautiful rural setting, surrounded by an olive grove and vineyard. Outstanding features of the villa are the modern kitchen and bathroom fittings and the wonderful swimming pool. The owners are very responsive, helpful and keen to ensure the success of your stay, with many tips and insights to help you throughout. The housekeeper is also a great asset, particularly if you can understand some Italian. Altogether, a first class choice and thoroughly recommended. ##### Anthony Z.
