My mom and I found this to be the perfect apartment for our week in Cefalu. We were far enough away from the busy main streets that it was quiet, but also it was just a short walk to the end of our street to reach cafes, restaurants, an ATM, the beach, etc. The views were breathtaking! And although it is a gradual hike up to the apartment, and then three floors to the top, it was worth it. Christiane made certain that we understood how to use everything in the apartment, and everything was very modern/updated. She even walked with us from the train station to the apartment so that we could find our way. All in the all, Christiane and her husband were generous hosts and their home was absolutely beautiful and perfect.
