Torre Don Virgilio Country Hotel  

Tucked into Modica’s green countryside, this 4-star country house sits in a restored 1600s fortified farmhouse just 7–8 km from Modica’s baroque center. Nearby sights include the Greek Theatre, the Archaeological Park of Neapolis and Roman Amphitheatre, plus Ispica Cave, Castello dei Conti and the Cathedral of San Giorgio. Pet-friendly and family-friendly, it’s a rural base for exploring southeastern Sicily.

Renovated with period mirrors, antiques and embroidered linens, the hotel keeps an old-world vibe with modern comfort. Rooms are air-conditioned with minibars, LCD TVs and private flowered terraces or balconies. The property’s book bar and gardens add quiet charm and the sun terrace overlooks the pool and countryside.

Soak in a seasonal outdoor pool on the sun terrace, sip at the poolside bar, or borrow a mountain bike for a countryside ride. The resort arranges trekking, horseback riding, boat tours and excursions (including trips to Malta). Free Wi‑Fi across the grounds, parking, a solarium, laundry and a chapel round out the practical perks.

A 50 m² meeting room and wedding services make it event-ready. Enjoy complimentary wireless internet plus express check-in/check-out, limo or town-car options and airport or ferry shuttles available on request.

The on-site restaurant serves authentic Sicilian cuisine and a buffet breakfast packed with traditional local foods. Poolside drinks and limited room service are available, and multilingual staff can recommend regional specialties and book local food-focused tours.
