We had a wonderful stay in the villa. The location on the beach, the gardens and pool area make this a great place to stay. Santo make's you feel very welcome with welcome foods and drinks. You need to use either public transport (trains) or a car to get there but its an easy drive to Cefalu. There are also many beach bars in walking distance from the villa but be aware some close during Oct-May due to low season but the ones nearest to the villa was open in May.
