The apartment is lovely, with stunning coastal views from the balcony and the porch area behind the house. It is also very near a quiet beach and is is an easy 15 minute drive from the centre of cefalu. The pool and area surrounding the house is quiet and calming too. The host was friendly and welcoming, and sorted out any issues we raised. Be careful though that there is a $50 cost for linen / cleaning that is required, which is not clear on initial booking. The beach is also a little further from the house than suggested in the photos, though we would recommend the local beach in Cefalu as a better place to swim and relax! There was also an issue with ants, which swarmed the kitchen at the sight of any food. So do be careful when leaving stuff out!
