B&B Chicchi di Melograno – Modica

‘A country in the shape of a split pomegranate; near the sea but rural; half confined to a rocky spur, half scattered at his feet, with many staircases between the two halves, to act as peacemakers, and clouds in the sky from one bell tower to another, breathless like relay races of the Cavalleggeri del Re. “
Argo the blind or the dreams of memory – Gesualdo Bufalino

Chicchi di Melograno is a small but charming Modica B&B. Born from the renovation of an ancient Sicilian house located in one of the historic districts of the city, between cobbled alleys and houses that have retained the charm of a bygone era. The property is located in a happy position that allows you to immediately grasp the extraordinary urban location of Modica.

Reachable either by car from the road that climbs towards one of the most beautiful viewpoints of the city, or on foot through narrow streets and characteristic stairways, Chicchi di Melograno is located a few steps from the heart of the city, Corso Umberto I – full of shops and confectioneries.

“Chicchi di Melograno” owes its name to the famous piece by Gesualdo Bufalino, but the same also expresses the singular arrangement of the rooms “scattered like grains” near the central body.

The structure consists of 4 double bedrooms (with the possibility of adding one / two beds), obtained from the skilful recovery of small houses and furnished with taste and extreme attention to detail, in a balanced combination of early 20th century furniture and pieces of furniture contemporaries. All rooms have an independent entrance, private bathroom and overlook a common courtyard equipped with tables and chairs to better enjoy the afternoons of relaxation.

In the common area with kitchen, breakfast is served, an environment dominated by the white of the typical modica stone skilfully brought to light!

All rooms are equipped with TV, mini bar, hairdryer, Wi-Fi, air conditioning and courtesy line.

Chicchi di Melograno is the ideal solution to discover the enchantment of the city of Modica and its surroundings as well as to visit the nearby cities that have received, with Modica, the recognition of World Heritage Site by the Unesco.

Modica and surroundings

â € œModica is an unexpected wonder. . It is a bizarre, unique effect, something even unreal as seen in the distorting prism of the dream, like an immense phantasmagoric building from a fairy tale, which, instead of floors, was made of layers of houses. From this stacking up, steeples and bell towers stand outâ €
