Acerca de este alojamiento

¡Disfruta de una vista al mar mientras te quedas bajo el espectacular acantilado de Cefalu!

Si necesita vuelos baratos desde América del Norte u otras partes de Europa a Sicilia antes de reservar, pregúnteme.(¡Sí, a veces puedes volar directamente desde EE. UU. A Sicilia!) En los últimos diez años, he estado encontrando ofertas de viajes para mis propios viajes a Sicilia, y me encantaría compartir mi experiencia con usted. Podría estar al tanto de ciertos aeropuertos, líneas aéreas, rutas y ofertas especiales que no aparecen en los principales motores de búsqueda.

Además, si está interesado en una estadía más prolongada durante los meses más fríos (enero, febrero, principios de marzo, noviembre y diciembre), hablemos y veamos si podemos organizar su estadía en Cefalu en esta época más tranquila del año. , cuando puede sentirse cómodo y cálido dentro de la casa mientras contempla un mar en constante cambio, a veces furioso y otras veces perfectamente tranquilo y lleno de barcos de pesca.

BIENVENIDO A CASA DEL FARO! Esta hermosa casa está ubicada directamente al otro lado de la calle de una playa rocosa del Mediterráneo y tiene un empinado patio trasero de 80 metros cuadrados (800 pies cuadrados) que conduce a un acantilado masivo de 200 m (700 pies). Es una de varias casas urbanas excavadas en una reestructurada fábrica de espagueti de piedra en 2005.

La casa tiene un área total de 60 metros cuadrados (600 pies cuadrados), dividida equitativamente entre dos pisos. En la planta baja, disfrutará de una habitación individual grande con dos sofás, TV y reproductor de DVD, mesa de centro, mesa de comedor con seis sillas y cocina totalmente equipada con azulejos pintados a mano de Caltigirone, además de medio baño. ¿Te gustan las antigüedades? Bueno, en diciembre de 2010, acabamos de traer 3 piezas de muebles de sala a juego fabricados en la década de 1890 en Palermo por la fábrica Dacrot, que incluían dos sillas de extremo a juego y una mesa con lámpara de mármol. La gran ventana de la sala de estar da directamente al Mediterráneo, mientras que la puerta de atrás da al famoso acantilado de Cefalú. Arriba, también disfrutarás de despertarte con olas rompientes y una vista sin obstáculos del Mediterráneo desde el dormitorio principal, con una cama doble grande, un armario y una cómoda, decorada con motivos náuticos. ¡Disfruta de la colección de hermosas cerámicas sicilianas tradicionales pintadas a mano de la cercana ciudad de Santo Stefano! También hay una habitación junior decorada con títeres sicilianos, con dos camas individuales, armario y vista al acantilado. El baño completo tiene ducha, inodoro, bidet y lavabo.

Fuera de CASA DEL FARO cuenta con dos hermosas áreas para su disfrute gastronómico. Inmediatamente afuera de la casa hay una cocina exterior, con parrilla de gas, fregadero y mostrador de preparación de alimentos. ¡Sírvete hierbas frescas que puedas encontrar creciendo allí! Hay una mesa de picnic con seis sillas y sombrillas aquí, y es un gran lugar para disfrutar de un desayuno de verano. Más arriba, en la colina, en el patio trasero, disfrutará de una cena bajo la glorieta en la hermosa mesa hecha a mano de piedra volcánica siciliana negra, decorada con una superficie de esmalte pintada con una fantasía de frutas. Desde aquí puede mirar por encima del techo de tejas rojas hacia el centro histórico de Cefalú o hacia las islas Eolias, un archipiélago volcánico más fácilmente visible durante los meses de invierno.

Hay varios tipos de experiencias de playa disponibles. Directamente al otro lado de la calle de CASA DEL FARO hay una escalera que conduce a una playa rocosa, que es un buen lugar para tomar el sol lejos de las aglomeraciones incluso en verano. Está bien nadar cuando el mar está en calma. Personalmente, prefiero ir medio kilómetro (tercio de milla) a la ciudad hasta el Puerto Viejo, donde hay una pequeña playa pública libre detrás de un embarcadero, donde el agua siempre está tranquila. Más allá de este punto se encuentra una gran cantidad de playas privadas, donde paga para alquilar su silla y sombrilla. La temporada de playa dura aproximadamente desde abril hasta la primera semana de noviembre.

Además de buenos restaurantes, Cefalu ofrece grandes oportunidades para aquellos que quieren cocinar solos. Puede disfrutar de una cafetería y una tienda de vinos en el mismo complejo de edificios que CASA DEL FARO o puede caminar 200 metros hacia la ciudad para satisfacer la mayoría de sus necesidades culinarias.

CASA DEL FARO se encuentra a 15 minutos a pie de la estación de tren, con conexiones frecuentes a Palermo. En el verano, varios ferries al día van desde el puerto de Cefalu (a solo 200 metros de la casa) hasta Palermo y las Islas Eolias. Siempre hay estacionamiento disponible en el nuevo puerto, pero en muchos sentidos es más fácil disfrutar de Cefalú sin un automóvil, ya que las calles en el barrio medieval son bastante estrechas y tienden a tener mucho tráfico de peatones. No hay estacionamiento disponible directamente en frente de la casa. En la ciudad puede encontrar muchas agencias felices de organizar excursiones a Agrigento, el Monte Etna, Monreale y la mayoría de los otros puntos de interés en Sicilia. ¡No se olvide de visitar la encantadora catedral de Cefalú del siglo XII con sus famosos mosaicos bizantinos y el encantador Osterio Magno, con su influencia arquitectónica árabe!

¡TENGA EN CUENTA! ESTA CASA NO ES ADECUADA PARA LAS PERSONAS QUE TIENEN PROBLEMAS CON LAS ESCALERAS DE ESCALADA, pero no debería presentar ningún problema para alguien con una salud normal.

Great location

Lovely cottage in a great location. The property in accessed via stairs and a short walk at the back. Close enough to the beautiful old town, shops, bars and a beautiful but busy beach so get up early for a swim.

Beautiful little place to enjoy cefalu

We had a great stay. The location of the acommodation is perfect: you can reach the old town of cefalu within 5 minutes, but you also have a relatively quiet place to relax. The place could use a little bit love, but it’s very handsome an as two persons, we had a very nice time and would recommend and come back. A car is helpful, since the next supermarket is a 20 minute walk (and you will need some water). Quick and easy communications with the team. Another tip: visit the caldura beach. It‘s way more relaxed than the beach at cefalu center and just a 20 minute walk from the apartment.

Cottage on the sea :)

The cottage is in a great location - across the road from a set of steps leading directly to the sea. We swam there every day apart from one when the waves were a little choppy. There are 3 restaurants next to the property- each one has lovely food and great service. Only a 5-10 min into the town with lots of shops, restaurants and lido beaches. Mark was a pleasure to deal with. His communications were always prompt and thorough - and he even called me directly to answer a query I had whilst in the property. The rental company that look after checkin were also great to communicate with. Overall a fantastic property, in a great place.

Nice apartment on the outskirts of the old town, overlooking the water. Clean and comfy.

Apartment is clean, comfortable and well appointed. There are a few flights of stairs up/down to access the apartment so not suitable for people with mobility issues, however fine for the able bodied. The apartment is a short stroll from the centre. It was nice to be a short distance away from the crowds, but an easy walk back to the lovely town centre and beach. There are a few nice restaurants directly across the road so not essential to head back to town. We got lost trying to locate the apartment (dud GPS took us to pedestrian only street) and Sergio the property manager very helpfully sent a colleague to escort us to the property.

Perfect Cefalu Location

Ideal location just outside the old town and away from the hubbub of the new, this house was perfect for our needs. Good communication for check-in. Well equipped. Loved the rocky area opposite. Good value. We would happily book again if visiting Cefalu.

Early June in Cefalu

According to locals first week in Spring, but plenty hot for us northerners. Pleasant and rustic accommodation. Great location for exploring Cefalù but walking required to meet up with coach for trips elsewhere. Parking not as near as expected and uphill home.

A great spot for a relaxing few days

We were three friends travelling together and Mark’s house was perfect for us. Driving from Taormina we were welcomed by Sergio who was so helpful during our stay. We found parking in the nearby marina although we then didn’t move the car for three days. Cars are not needed in Cefalù so unless you really have to I would advise not driving. The house is in a perfect location just outside the old town, comfortable and well equipped with outside space. Only suggestion would be to have a few basics - olive oil, salt and pepper etc available for guests as it would have encouraged us to use the kitchen more! That said there are great options for eating out in Cefalù, some just outside the house. We would definitely recommend the climb up La Rocca which looms over the town - the view is extraordinary - and we loved the small beach in the old fishing port.

Enchanted April (May) 2019

We rented this townhouse for a full month in the spring. This property has my unconditional approval! Great location, comfortable, great views! great restaurants just below you! Good management, thorough communications, very informative. I’d buy this property if Mr Meeks would be interested in selling!!! Did I mention what a wonderful town Cefalu is, to live in and explore? Only constructive criticism I might offer, move the beautiful hand panted table from the hill, onto the back patio....(store the trash containers against the dividing fence, in lieu of counters). Thanks so much for sharing this magical place! Ciao!

Extreme disappointment.

We family of four were looking forward to our stay at Mark's place but we were not able to do so. Mark's apartment was our second stop on our Southern Italy touring holiday and we had driven there from London. When we had booked all three properties, them being in: Napoli, Sicily and Bari for this holiday, we had been assured that there is free parking available for our large VW at every property, with this facility being listed on each of the three Home Away adverts. When we have arrived to stay at Mark's place we were greeted by Mark's neighbour and she informed us that there is nowhere to park and we should contact Mark directly to try to solve this issue. Mark lives in US and the phone call I had to make was very expensive and did not resolve anything and he told us that there is no parking with this property and we should find parking at the near-by marina. Cefalu is a very busy town with most parking for residents only, therefore we could not find any parking. I called Mark again about the parking situation, but he had no answer. As the night was approaching we were desperate to find a roof over our heads with parking for our van and we decided that there is no other option but to abandon Mark's place and find a hotel. Next day I contacted Home Away and they agreed with us that Mark had misrepresented advertising his property and he should refund our money. Our stay in Sicily cost us an extra 700 euro and Mark has not refunded our payment.

Was a very nice apartment well equipped clean and everything you could wish for away from home.

We had two weeks here and it was just fabulous the owner even phoned to see if every thing was okay nice touch. The apartment is ideally located not far from the old town with its shops and plentiful resteraunts and the most delicious ice cream ever however there are three resteraunts just over the road from the apartment so you don’t have to go far if you don’t want to. The beach is not far away a nice walk through the cobbled street but watch out for the traffic. My only down side to the apartment was that it says top terrace with sea views which is right but you could not eat up there as the steps are too steep to Carry any food up and I think it’s been a while since it’s been used . Would still give it 5 stars

Lovely small house overlooking the sea

A lovely stay in a small house overlooking the sea, five minutes from the medieval streets of Cefalu and above a small fishing port. Beautifully appointed, warm and friendly. Well situated for train journeys to Palermo, San Stefano and other coastal towns; or by car for the wonderful steep roads, hidden valleys and remote towns of the Madonie.

A Quiet, Peaceful Time to Visit Cefalu

We had a great time staying in Cefalu during the low season, when there was plenty of parking and the local people had more time to interact with us and be even more hospitable. Almost every night we could watch the fisherman at work from our front windows. They seemed to be fishing for squid, and we were able to buy fresh fish directly from fishermen who sold their catch fresh from little wheelbarrows on the main street in town. The heating in the house worked great and the decor was charming.

Lovely house with a great view

The house is within easy walking to the old town. The beds are comfortable and you have a great sea view. The house is as advertised Being just outside the old town makes for quiet nights. We took a bus trip to Castlebuono which was the highlight of our stay. Cefalu is also an easy train trip into Palermo.

Let the waves lull you to a restful sleep!

What a lovely and comfortable home away from home. This home has everything you would need for a restful vacation. It comfortably accomodated our party of 3 adults and 1 child and we were never crowded or lacked our space. Television is in Italian (as would be expected) and there is a DVD player, so you can bring your favorite movies. Cooking facilities were more than adequate and the table is wonderful for having family dinners while looking out to the sea. (The flowers, and basil, in the window boxes added to the overall comfort) Out back are two spaces, one right outside with table, chairs and umbrella to shield you from Sicilian sun. Up the stairs out back is an outstanding location for dining on a lava rock table, hand painted, and while dining you have 180 degree view of the sea.There is gated access, two restaurants downstairs and an art gallery for browsing. Tip: Go to the right as you exit for amazing views. On Saturdays, go further that way and uphill for an outdoor market where you can buy fresh vegetables, salted cod, and cheese made by the man who sells it to you! I love Cefalu', it's relaxing and these accomodations give the feeling that you're a "local".

WONDERFUL STAY AT CASA DEL FARO

My family and I thoroughly enjoyed this quaint and charming two bedroom townhome in Cefalu italy ( SICILY )The master bedroom boasted a pamoramic view of the Mediterranean Sea across the street. Our two sons, ages 11 and 8, slept in the twin beds in the second bedroom. We loved strolling to downtown Cefalu which was a 10 minute walk and our boys had a great time exploring the sea shore across the street. Boys being boys, we left them on their own as they brought back rocks and sea shells. We parked our rental car for free at a near by Marina, as it is impossible to find parking in high season in downtown Cefalu. Completely restored to modern standards, the house has adequate Air conditioning, internet and intersting artworks and antiques .We thoroughly enjoyed cooking at home . The kitchen was well equipped with many pots and pans,cooking utensils, glassware etc It is obvious that the American owner loves to cook and entertain when he is using this lovely Italian get away... The BBQ area outside is like an outdoor kitchen and we ate under the grapevines with a view of the Mediterreanean Sea. Cefalu has some great restaurants. We liked LA BRACCE located downtown the best. The owner was easy to contact by e mail and called us on the landline to welcome us and to make sure that everything was in order. We were happy to deal with a native speaker of English who accepted the payment in dollars! The Italian staff who helps out is most hospitable and available if a need arises. We would recommend this vacation home to couples and small families. Four people is ideal.

wonderful Thanksgiving in Cefalu

My husband and I celebrated Thanksgiving at the townhome. This was our first time in Sicily and we truly enjoyed our week in Cefalu. The kitchen is very clean and well equiped - we were able to fix meals there with no problems, including Thanksgiving with the traditional turkey, potatoes, dressing and home made pumpkin pie. Having the restaurant, Bar del Faro, so close was quite convenient for those times we didn't want to cook. The townhome accurately met the description, the location, and the posted photos, no surprises there. We would recommend staying here to family and friends, especially if we could come along for a second visit here with them. The Capella Normana and the church at Monreale were spectacular- have never seen such beautiful mosaics in such abundance. Would recommend both along with the cathedral in Cefalu altough its mosaics are not as impressive. The market in Palermo was also interesting to see. We took the bus to Castelbuono 1 day and enjoyed the trip up and back winding through the mountains and wandering around the town. The bus left from the train station. The trains to and from Palermo were reliable both times and we only had a 10 minute delay one of the mornings.

Perfect Location in Gorgeous Cefalu

My husband & I enjoyed a very nice stay at this townhouse. The accommodation was very clean & provided us with everything we needed. There are two floors to the rental with a narrow stairwell to consider if you have young children or have difficulty with stairs. Also, there is a street that runs along the front of the building and you do hear the cars & scooters in the mornings & early evenings. I am a light sleeper but used earplugs & I slept well. The walk into the main town is not far at all & provides you with beautiful views of the sea. We were able to park our car for free at the recommended nearby harbor and never had a problem. Cefalu really is a beautiful city, and the townhouse is well located to explore Cefalu & the nearby towns. I would readily recommend this townhouse.

A Warm Trinacria Welcome!

Casa del Faro is located in a pretty spot & a quick walk into the heart of Cefalu. The US based owner was very responsive to all questions & we knew he was readily available via email. It's great having internet access in the apartment. Our group of 4 was in the apartment for a week. The first night we ate downstairs at "La Trinacria" (which is the name of Sicily's 3-legged symbol), owned by Salvatore. By the end of the evening, we had met his buddies, and he has taken us under his wing, as if we were part of an extended family. We ended up having several more meals there, and at least cappuccino, if nothing else. Salvatore and his family are delightful people. We also very much enjoyed his friend, Nicola's restaurant, "Kentia", an easy walk. "Le Chat Noir" had a pasta dish, which was one of the best we had during our three weeks in Italy. Mussels were excellent everywhere. Since we had a car, we were able to take side trips. Our longest day trip was to Agrigento, to the Valley of the Temples. Definitely worth it, however, we would recommend staying a few days on the east/south side of Sicily and doing those sights from a home base on that end, rather than making the drive from Cefalu. The roads are windy, and it's a long day. Don't plan on finding lunch in the small villages along the way; everything closes up during "siesta". Taking the train to Palermo for the day was hassle-free. Buy a good, detailed map of Palermo when you get off, at the train station. You will be glad you paid the 5 Euro. The small maps in tourist books are not adequate, if you are adventurous. Palermo was not "scary", as it is portrayed by some. It's chaotic, busy, fast-paced, interesting. We are experienced travelers so we were fine with it. You have to be good at dodging Vespas and cars. Sometimes you have a sidewalk, and then you don't. Be sure to visit the outdoor market -- a feast for the senses! The catacombs are bizarrely fascinating. Take the car into the hills & visit Sant' Gibilmana & Castelbuono. A matter of taste, but we found the ceramic shop in Cefalu (on Corso Ruggero) to have finer quality than the ceramic factories in S. Stefano. We'd planned to some prepare meals in the apartment; this wasn't as practical as we had hoped. The kitchen is tiny. One shower & the smaller second bedroom make it "tight" for 4 adults. It's fine, just know it's not spacious. We'd recommend it to friends who are in good physical shape, & who enjoy a "local" feel.

Por qué escogió este alojamiento

I fell in love with Cefalu on my first visit to the town in 2005. At that time, Casa del Faro was being renovated after decades of neglect. It was such a unique site, right between the Mediterranean and the cliff and so close to a gorgeous historical town, that I couldn't wait to sign the contract and get my name on the property register! Owning my own Italian home has been one of the best experiences in my life, and I'm thrilled to share the house with visitors!

Qué hace que este alojamiento sea especial

Help yourself to vegetables, herbs, or fruit growing in the backyard! Right in the same complex are two wonderful places to dine: La Trinacria, which is a year-round restaurant with a delicatessen, and Faro, which serves lighter fare. Before heading to the grocery store ask about the location of the Saturday open-air market up the hill, It's a great place to get quality produce, meats, fish, cheese, etc. at a low price, and you'll enjoy the majestic view!
