A large typical brick kitchen with Santo Stefano ceramics and equipped with dishwasher.

Beautiful Hilltop Villa With Amazing Views
We were a party of 6 including my wife and I, our three adult kids, and my mother. We had a wonderful stay at this beautiful stone house perched over the town and coast of Cefalu. Francesco could not have been more gracious and responsive. He arranged for a chef who cooked us a lovely seafood dinner, he made recommendations and responded immediately to any questions. The property and gardens are amazing. But we were also quite content to stay in the house during a heavy rain day. The road that approaches the house is quite steep and a little tricky. We highly recommend this location.

Far from the madding crowd
An absolute gem of a place. Well equipped property, inside and out. Owners (Francesco and Marianna) are deservedly proud of this quaint property and gardens. Swimming pool and patio immaculate. Indoor and outdoor shower rooms. Car needed as location is 3.6 miles from Cefalu town centre. Highly recommended and Francesco, provided the warmest welcome, a fabulous bottle of local wine, and took us on a personal tour of Palermo. His hospitality was beyond our expectation. Would also recommend the supermarket Gourmet Deco Cefalu - Waitrose on steroids!

Fabulous!
We throughly enjoyed our stay in Sicily and would highly recommend staying here. The villa itself is wonderfully rustic and authentic and is equipped with everything you could possibly need and more! A real home from home. Francesco is a fantastic host who greeted us with a warm welcome and was attentive and helpful throughout our stay. Cefalu was beautiful and we also spent a lovely evening in nearby pituresque Castelbuono (an excellent
recommendation by Francesco). We also enjoyed exploring other parts of the island (a car is a must) and the fantastic nearby beaches and the villa was always a welcome sight to return to. We fell in love with Sicily and wouldn't hesitate to stay again!

Amazing
Stop looking and just book this. Beautiful, comfortable Italian farmhouse. Wonderful stone walls and beams inside. Comfortable, quality furnishings. Many beautiful antiques. Waist-deep pool. Amazing outdoor spaces & living with plenty of shade or sun to enjoy the beautiful view. Beautiful landscape and gardens. Everything you could possibly need. So peaceful and quiet yet only 10 minutes to town, good restaurants, lots of activities. Owner is amazing, kind, so helpful. Stocked us with groceries for our first evening and morning since we were getting in late. He would have done more had we asked. Like having our own Italian home. We absolutely loved it!

Lovely place!
We were two families with children, ages from 5 to 12, who enjoyed a wonderful week in Francesco's lovely house. It was well equipped, clean and comfortable. We enjoyed being able to sit outside in the shade at all times of the day, and playing and cooling off in the pool.
Francesco was a friendly, funny and helpful host. He gave us good tips about restaurants and beaches to visit.

A Gem in CefalĂč: Our Stay at Francescoâs Haven
Our stay at Francesco's house in CefalĂč was a highlight of our travels. As a host, Francesco was phenomenal, striking the perfect balance between attentiveness and allowing us our privacy.
His house offered a quaint and cozy retreat, complete with the comforts of home yet a distinctly Sicilian charm.What made our experience unforgettable was the house's stunning viewâunparalleled vistas of the sea that framed our mornings and evenings with natural splendor.
The house, a perfect embodiment of coziness and beauty, paired with Francesco's hospitality, made our visit to CefalĂč truly magnificent. This is not just a place to stay; it's a venue to experience the best of Sicily.

Haus mit Charme zum WohlfĂŒhlen
Wir waren als Familie mit Kindern und GroĂeltern 5 Tage dort und wollten gar nicht abreisen. Toller Ausblick, NĂ€he zu Cefalu, ein sehr herzlicher Gastgeber. Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefĂŒhlt.
Ruim sfeervol ingericht huis met ruime overkapping en terras en zwembad. Fantastisch uitzicht op zee vanaf 350 m hoogte. Rustige plek ongeveer 4 km van Cefalu vandaan. De laatste 800 m zijn erg stijl imhoog en vormen telkens weer een uitdaging om er te komen. De eigenaar, Franceso, is een hartelijke man die je graag wil helpen.

We had a lovely stay at Francescoâs house. The location is perfect, calm and quiet with an amazing view, but still close to the main attractions in Cefalu. The house was clean and practical with loads of nice seating areas outside to enjoy the view and the pool.
Francesco was a fantastic host, a great communicator, and overall lovely person - always available for questions and assistance.

traumhaus mit meerblick und charme
Wir haben eine wunderschöne woche in diesem ganz individuell gestalteten ferienhaus verbracht. Bei ankunft war der kĂŒhlschrank gefĂŒllt!! Herr de lisi war ein sehr warmherziger und ĂŒberaus hilfsbereiter gastgeber, bei dem wir uns herzlich bedanken.
Auch die terrasse und die gartenanlage ĂŒbertraf unsere erwartungen. Die steile anfahrt zum haus ist nichts fĂŒr ungeĂŒbte fahrer!
Vi stortrivdes under vÄr vistelse, huset var helt fantastiskt, vackert italienskt, rymligt och med alla tillbehör! Vi var tvÄ familjer och det passade oss perfekt. Poolen var barnvÀnlig och alldeles lagom stor och passade barnen i Äldrarna 6-13. Utsikten var verkligen nÄgot extra, helt magnifik!! Francesco var en fantastisk host med sin glÀdje och vÀnlighet men ocksÄ hjÀlpsamhet med att besvara alla vÄra frÄgor. Francesco bidrog mycket till vÄr positiva upplevelse av resan. Boendet ligger uppe pÄ ett berg sÄ sista biten dit var lite anstrÀngande och det krÀvs lite mod av föraren. Man vande sig efter ett par gÄnger, men ÀndÄ bra att kÀnna till. Vi rekommenderar gÀrna detta fantastiska hus och Francesco som host, toppen!

Wunderschönes Haus mit traumhaften Ausblick
Das Haus wird nach einer abenteuerlichen Auffahrt erreicht. Dann wird man von einer Blumenpracht begrĂŒĂt und die Besichtigung des Hauses begeistert. Wir waren mit drei Paaren unterwegs und das Haus hat genĂŒgend Platz fĂŒr uns geboten. Es gibt eine riesige Tafel auf der Terasse und auch die KĂŒche bietet alles was das Herz begehrt. Cefalu ist der perfekte Standort fĂŒr alle möglichen AusflĂŒge und bietet selbst eine Traumkulisse, sizilianische Köstlichkeiten und mehrere StrĂ€nde. Ein muss ist der eigene Mietwagen, ansonsten ist die Villa nicht zu erreichen.
