In the heart of the Val di Noto, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, life flows slowly among ancient memories, radiant baroque art, and scents that tell of centuries of encounters and traditions. Here stands our home, an early 20th-century residence lovingly restored in full respect of Sicilian tradition. A welcoming retreat from which to set out and to which you’ll always return to "firriari ’a lecca e ’a mecca" – wander far and wide – through the wonders of Modica and its surroundings, embracing the timeless atmosphere of authentic Sicily.
‘A Lecca e ’a Mecca – Sicilian Hospitality is designed for curious travelers, couples in search of a romantic nest, and families who wish to feel at home even when far away. Two bright and comfortable independent apartments welcome you with sunny terraces, fully equipped kitchens, and all modern comforts, while a cozy common room invites you to relax, browse a guidebook, or simply enjoy the calm unique to these places.

We are Letizia and Vincenzo and we are delighted to introduce you to our House!
After spending several years in the north of Italy, we recently decided to follow our hearts and move back to Modica to build a life that is more true to our interests and passions. Among these passions is hospitality and welcoming guests.
We believe in preserving and enhancing the cultural and community values of a place. Through this small tourism project, we aim to help our guests discover the territory and make their experience as authentic as possible. We also believe that through the exchange of knowledge and perspectives with our guests, we can contribute to the growth and enhancement of the local community.
The property is located in the heart of the historic center of Modica, a few hundred meters from the bus terminal for buses coming from Catania airport and nearby towns, and a stone's throw from the main street and the city's major monuments of interest. In particular, we point out that a short distance away are the Cathedral of San Giorgio (140 m), the Cathedral of San Pietro (420 m), the Rock Church of San Nicolò Inferiore (550 m), the Castle of the Counts (400 m) and the Birthplace Museum of Salvatore Quasimodo (550 m).
In the immediate vicinity, there are also bars, restaurants, clubs, shops, and pharmacies.
Free parking is available near the property.
