Description

In the heart of Val di Noto, in Modica, stands Talia, an original accommodation that resembles a small oasis in the historical center of the city. The structure is composed of small homes, restored using natural materials typical of Sicilian tradition. The atmosphere is Mediterranean, offering a journey through sensations, colors, and fragrances from the East to the West. The homes encircle a lush Mediterranean garden, creating a beautiful backdrop.

ROOMS
Each room in Talia is an antique house that has been exquisitely restored. They are situated on various natural levels of the terrain and come with their own terrace, offering a magnificent panoramic view of the ancient city.

THE GARDEN
The garden is the secret place of the house. The atmosphere is Mediterranean, offering a journey through sensations, colors, and fragrances from the East to the West. The homes encircle a lush Mediterranean garden, creating a beautiful backdrop.

FACILITIES
Staying in Talia means choosing a vacation that alternates moments of total relaxation in the inner garden with itineraries of historical and artistic character, or simple walks on deserted beaches. Guests can embrace the slow pace of Sicily under the Mediterranean sun.

La colazione di CASA TALÌA - B&B DI CHARME

Hey from Marco

Member since July 2005 | 77,802 hits

Welcome to Talía, a place of undisputed charm, an island within an island where harmony reigns supreme. This is the result of the careful attention paid to every single detail during the renovation carried out by the young owners: a couple of Milanese architects, Marco Giunta and Viviana Haddad, who have chosen to live here, preferring the slow pace of life to the frantic rhythm of the city. Talía is a true gem, a haven of peace where every detail has been designed to ensure a unique experience for those who choose to stay here.

The structure is composed by small houses, restored with the use of natural materials and traditional Sicilian.

All rooms exude a Mediterranean atmosphere, an ideal journey through sensations and colors from East to West, just as to surround the sea, the houses framed by a lush Mediterranean garden.

The rooms all with panoramic views of the old city are equipped with every comfort, with independent access from the garden and terrace.

Coming in Talìa, it means choosing a holiday in alternation between total relax in the garden in historical-artistic itineraries and simple walks in the desert seashores addicted to the slow pace of Sicily in the Mediterranean sun.

Fantastic location. The most beautiful to see Modica. The name does not disappoint. Room, mine, a bit spartan and essential, but pleasant. Uncomfortable parking and carrying things. Valentino very good and helpful and to follow his excellent advice.

Very relaxing and comfortable! Great views from this B&B, but very hard to find at first.

Wonderful dwelling, expertly renovated. Magnificent view of a beautiful city. Excellent breakfast with selected raw materials. Very kind the owner Mr. Marco, with whom we had a conversational relationship during breakfast; equally kind and friendly Mr. Carlo in charge of customer reception, always attentive and generous with advice. They deserve praise and a new visit as soon as possible! Thank you.

Although I would strongly recommend Casa Talìa to friends and we enjoyed our stay very much, a few small improvements and better information are needed to justify the high price. Having a fabulous view, interesting individual rooms and good staff are not quite enough: guests need to know that the car park is 200 meters uphill from the hotel (it is however very rare to get a car park in central Modica), the bathroom needs towel rails to dry the towels properly as hooks are not sufficient, there is a lack of amenities in the rooms - no tea or coffee making facilities, no tissues, very limited toiletries, no bathrobes. Fix these small issues and you will have a lovely B&B which fully justifies the high price. Thank you for your welcome Carlo and Marco.

Great view, lovely garden, but. Average service, beds of poor quality, sometimes hot water, sometimes cold water in the shower, and after the shower the whole bathroom is flooded because the shower curtain is too small. And all this for a price where you could get a room in a 5-star hotel even in the low season, and this is what you have to measure up to.

A magical place, with a spectacular and unforgettable view over the enchanted panorama of Modica. The risk one runs is that of never wanting to leave the property and neglecting the city, which instead deserves more than one visit. The rooms and suites are furnished by Viviana Haddad, a renowned architect, and reflect the style that has made her famous and explains why her projects are sought after by people from all over the world. Her husband Marco, also an architect, takes care of all the details of hospitality and provides valuable advice on how to experience Modica and the Val di Noto. A 5-star B&B.

Modica is incredibly beautiful and exciting – just like Casa Talìa. The location is perfect, the property is very lovingly and stylishly designed. Marco and his team are excellent hosts, discreet, polite, and at the same time warm. Breakfast in the garden - with a fantastic view of the city - is, especially by Italian standards, great, diverse, and put together with love for the region, making it particularly original. Small limitation: the rooms are not cheap, you don't get superficial luxury, but considering the uniqueness of this B&B, that doesn't matter. We enjoyed everything very much!
