Your 3 suite retreat, in Modica

Three reasons why you'll love it here

2. A wine cellar created in an old water cistern
3. Magical moments in the secret garden with hot tub

Three suites, a secret garden, and a spa. Residenza Hortus, created by the owners of the beautiful Casa Kimiyà, is the perfect choice for those looking for a unique holiday home in the heart of the Sicilian baroque city of Modica.

Beautiful - inside & out

Vaulted ceilings, stone arches, old-fashioned Sicilian bed covers, and seriously-stylish contemporary designer furniture and lighting: it's the details which make the difference in each of Residenza Hortus's suites.

The most sought-after (and fought-over) room in the house? Everyone wants to sleep in Suite Acqua, which features an inviting circular bed and a massive bath tub made with local lava stone!

If you think the interiors are stunning, just wait 'til you step outside, into the residence's garden complete with panoramic terrace and hydromassage pool
Here, surrounded by the sweet scent of mandarin, fig, orange and lemon trees, you'll be treated to amazing views over the roof tops of Modica and the Cathedral of San Giorgio.

Wining & dining

Built in what was once an old underground water cistern, Residenza Hortus' wine cellar stocks a superb selection of Sicilian wines, including all the best bottles produced by the island's Planeta, Cos, Valle dell'Acate, Castellucci Miano and Passopisicaro wineries.

Love cooking? In the residence's ultra-modern kitchen you'll find everything you might need to prepare anything from a quick snack to a full blown feast

You can choose to eat indoors or alfresco in the dining area in the garden.
