Vicenza is the perfect host. She welcomed us personally, offered us a cold water bottle in the fridge and a bottle of wine. On top of that she prepared a basket with snacks and other local specialties to taste. This was a nice gesture and we felt very good about it. Her initial greeting to is was “Welcome home!”. 🤗
And her apartment is literally in the center of Cefalu, one minute walk from the Duomo square (UNICEF listed).
The area is quiet (with some small noises from the street, but nothing that is disturbing). The apartment is medical-grade clean and we truly appreciated this. It is very safe to come and stay, now that traveling is again possible.
The kitchen is fully equipped if you want to cook, with all the needed pans and dishes.
There is a balcony with a table and two chairs right next to the kitchen, where you can enjoy breakfast (if you want to cook) or a glass of wine in the sunset colors or the evening.
I recommend you walk outside and go eat and explore the true tastes of Sicily. Cefalu is the best place for that. You will find sooo many restaurants and pubs. All with great food. Try the local dishes. They are to die for.
The bathroom has a big 50L tank so a shower for two people is easily possible without sacrificing time. Shower has great pressure (my favorite) and there is also a washing machine if you stay longer and need to wash your clothes.
Pick this place if you travel as a couple or family with one child. You will love it.
Vicenza is also open and available for private advice via WhatsApp on places to go eat at, what to visit and how to get to places. She is an excellent communicator and we felt safe and cared for.
We’re looking forward to coming back to Cefalu and stay here again.
