We had only a short time to explore Modica, but Casa Talia's location and view helped us get the most out of it. The host and staff were very helpful and pleasant, the room was a smart mix of very old and very modern - allowing for a little taste of life in the former Jewish quarter of an ancient... More

Casa Talia wins awards for architecture / interior decor and deserves every one... But as far as hotel/B&B hospitality, they fail. We arrived to a very cold and brief greeting (no name introduction or smile) and were very quickly shown our room, handed the key and left on our own. We were not shown the common garden & sitting area... More

We were prepared to have difficulty finding this place based on other reviewers, but Marco's e-mailed directions were perfect. This place is really amazing...never seen anything like it. And that view is just not to be believed. In warmer weather I imagine one would just sit outside and gaze. Our weather was a little chilly and rainy. The walk down... More

V. interesting layout and staggering views - however not great hospitality - communal room mostly closed - except at breakfast - and impossible to get a drink in... More

“Vivianne & Marco are terrific hosts. This is a little gem and oasis among the stone cottages and meandering stairways of Modica Alta. A treat for those who appreciate architecture and interior design. The architecture and interior design are creative and beautiful creating a cozy and romantic atmosphere. Details such as colorful vintage tiled flooring, wrought iron fixtures & headboards,... More

My husband and I recently stayed, you cannot beat the location, view is just stunning, and B @B decor and style/design is beautiful, a little more rustic balanced with charm and flare. You can easily walk down into town, Modica such a lovely town to explore, including walking back at night. Breakfast was adequate, fresh juice was a delight, changed... More

Finding Casa Talia is the first challenge. Most Sat Navs will send you to the wrong place and Marco (the owner) needs to find you somewhere in Modica. It is hard to understand why directions are so vague on the website. Once this first challenge was mastered, we were shown our beautiful room (Mediterraneo) with ensuite bathroom. The architecture and... More

Heavenly! Couples only retreat, where the view from your balcony is of the graying rooftops of sweet Modica. Breakfasts in the garden, followed by a short walk downhill to corso umberto, and we instantly relaxed into daily Sicilian life. The only sadness is seeing so many of Modicas beautiful palazzos and homes bordered up. But, it is a heavenly city... More

We simply loved Casa Talia. Its perched position with sweeping views of surrounding Modica and its beautiful design ensure it is a very special place indeed. Our room backed onto a shared, prettily tiled terrace bathed in sun from morning to late afternoon. There's also a shaded communal garden to retreat to when the sun gets a little too hot.... More
