The Experience
In Modica’s baroque heart is a small 19th-century townhouse in which history and modernity magically combine. It has been remodelled by artist and eco engineer Luca – zero-impact energy applies and feng shui principles shine. Off a narrow, broad-stepped alley to a solid wood front door, and a friendly housekeeper invites you in and shows you the ropes. Find a cool, calm, unexpectedly spacious interior, bright with natural colours and bold canvases, polished cement floors and wrought-iron banisters… and stylish candle lanterns for bedrooms, balcony and terrace. The double is off the open-plan living room while the family room is up some steps and opens to a big dining terrace, replete with lemon trees in pots and a roofscape that twinkles at night. White and chocolate brown linen enfolds simple wrought-iron bedsteads, there are antique floor tiles and painted wooden shutters, and small but perfectly formed bathrooms. Modica has endless fiestas and a jazz festival in July; lovely beaches are 20 minutes away. The serenity nourishes the soul.

Introducing
Luca Giannini
Luca and Iolanda live in Rome and have three stylish self-catering properties, two in Modica and one in Syracuse, all of which they restored themselves. Luca is an artist and environmental engineer, Iolanda is a land surveyor.
Stayed here for a week in June. The house does not really live up to the pictures on the web site. There is shabby chic and there is shabby. We feel the accommodation is looking neglected and is not of the usual Sawday's standard. Described as spacious, it was we feel quite compact. We were not expecting to park outside the front door, but parking in Modica is a real challenge and the task of carrying cases up steep steps and steep paths needs to be made more explicit for future visitors. We enjoyed the area, but not the parking or the standard of the accommodation.
