It was great staying here. Valerio kept in contact with us before our arrival and made us feel very welcome. He gave us great restaurant recommendations. The gardens are great and there is a good sea view from the villa which lets you see the brilliant sunsets in Cefalu. The villa provides lots of space to be outdoors and to enjoy both the weather and the views. The fragramce of jasmine wafts in to the apartment and is brilliant when you are sitting outside. There is a walk uphill to the apartment, but its good for your fitness levels and working off the Italian food! We loved it here - thanks Valerio.
