Francesco's apartment has to be one of the coolest places in Cefalù. The beautiful views from the patio and exclusive access to, in my opinion, the nicest part of the beach in town makes this Airbnb an absolute gem. On the city side, it is perfectly located in the best part of the old town. Everything is immediately accessible with a short walk. To top it off, Francesco is incredibly friendly and gracious, providing excellent recommendations for dining and whatever else you might need. Can't wait to go back!

Wonderful place Wonderful host!

Such a wonderful stay at Francesco’s place. The space is great - but the real draw to this place is the terrace - such an amazing view! Only thing to complain about is that we didn’t stay longer!

Francesco’s place was wonderful. The best part was the outside seating and secret path to the beach. We loved walking out to the old part of town and even though it was on a busy walking area, it was very quiet. Book it!

Staying at Francesco's apartment was a wonderful, unique experience. You get to be in a stone building in the historical center of town while also enjoying a terrace overlooking the sea and--best of all--a magical, private corridor that takes you directly to the beach. We loved, loved, loved Cefalù but a lot of our adoration relates to how we got to experience Cefalù through Francesco's apartment. We wouldn't stay anywhere else. Francesco met us when we arrived, gave us local recommendations and was genuinely kind and warm.

We had the most incredible stay at Francesco’s Airbnb. The space is so unique, the view off the terrace is spectacular and the private walkway to the beach is the best part. We loved every minute of our stay and wish we could have stayed longer. Francesco was very welcoming and gave us great restaurant recommendations. We will definitely book this Airbnb again next time we travel to Sicily.

Francesco’s place is spectacular! Probably the coolest air bnb I’ve ever stayed in. Incredible views, beautiful terrace, private beach access, close to everything. The well inside and outside is unique. You can’t go wrong! I was so sad when we had to leave. We will be back!

This was By far the best air bnb we have ever stayed in. The view, location and space are breathtaking. I’ve never been so directly on the beach but also directly in town. No noise at night, gorgeous sun in the morning. The space is perfectly clean and I’m very picky about cleanliness. Francesco is wonderful, he is so passionate about cefalu and it was contagious. He was thorough and kind and was there if we needed him. He was flexible with checkout and just all around superb. I will be coming back to this air bnb and I can’t wait to stay longer in this corner of absolute heaven. 20/10!.

Brilliant accomodation in the most perfect setting . The apartment is spacious and comfortable but the icing on the cake is the beautiful historical well terrace , vista and beach access. We had a fabulous stay and would not hesitate to return . Thank you Francesco for sharing your accommodation with us and providing us with a warm welcome.

Francesco is a lovely friendly man who made us feel very at home in his lovely apartment. Cefalù is a wonderful place and in his apartment you are right in the middle of the action, and steps away from the beach via the hidden trap door. Magical.

We recently had the pleasure of staying at Francesco’s amazing apartment, located right in the heart of old town Cefalu. We loved the absolute beachfront location with direct access to the water, which was very relaxing and enjoyable. The apartment itself is very unique, with historical character which added to the experience. Francesco is an excellent host. He was very accommodating, prompt, and even welcomed us with a bottle of wine and a number of local restaurant recommendations which we tried and loved. Highly recommended!

Top Kommunikation mit Gastgeber, herzlicher Empfang und umfassendes Informationsangebot! Zentralste Lage in schöner Altstadt. Wir waren rundum zufrieden, grazie Francesco!

Dit verblijf ligt op de mooiste locatie van Cefalù. Het appartement heeft een geweldige historie, en details daarvan zijn behouden en terug te zien. Daarnaast is het heel mooi opgezet en ingericht. Het ligt midden in het historische centrum, maar zodra je binnen bent valt de drukte weg. We hebben zeer genoten van ons verblijf.

We could not have been more satisfied with our stay at Francesco’s home! The house is beautiful and full of rustic charm. It was perfectly appointed for a young family. The kitchenette served us well, and he supplied pots/pans/utensils/dishes. The home does not have an oven, but we navigated around that without difficulty. Francesco truly went out of his way and supplied a high chair, pack ‘n play, and a towel for our baby! The house does have a few steps which could be problematic for the 1-2 year age, but it was perfect for our young baby. Lastly, the view from the patio is breathtaking. We would absolutely stay here again!

This was a stellar booking and we’ve stayed in plenty. The location is absolutely unbeatable with the waves of the Mediterranean lapping up 5 meters from the terrace with a wonderful view of the beach. Even though on a street lined with restaurants and tourist shops, it was really quiet at night. Francesco, an amazingly helpful and responsive host, gave us restaurant recommendations and directions to the path to climb up to the ancient castle and fortress. The WiFi went down and he was there in 15 minutes with a new connector to reboot the router. As we had a 9:45 pm flight out of Palermo, he invited us to stay in the apartment until just before our 5pm train. If this apartment is available, just jump to book it asap. You will not be disappointed.

The view from the patio is beautiful, the place is clean and comfortable, and it is so close to amazing restaurants and shops. Francesco is kind, has excellent communication, and provided recommendations as well which were wonderful!

We could not have found a more perfect place to stay in Cefalu than Francesco’s lovely Terrace of the Well. The location was perfect — right on the water in the heart of the old town, an easy walk to the Duomo, restaurants, etc. We loved falling asleep and awakening to the lapping of the waves. Everything worked well. Francesco is charming, and attentive. He communicated really well before, during and even after our stay, and responded immediately whenever we had any small question. We could not have made a better choice!

Belle découverte de Cefalu, situation et hôte idéaux!

Stayed about four nights and this was definitely not enough. This place is absolutely beautiful with the best view and private access to beach. Just outside our door we had access to stores and restaurants. Not very far from train station.

The best place to stay in Cefalu. The patio overlooking the water with access to the beach was unbelievable! The place was spacious and comfortable. Just step outside the front door and you are in the middle of all the action. Francesco was an outstanding host! Hope to return soon and stay longer.

Francesco’s Well Terrace is beyond words, but I’ll try. The location is great, right in the historic center and directly on the beach with private access. You will be close to much great food, listen to Francesco’s recommendations. You will also be close to many points of interest. The inside of the house is very spacious and clean, with a fully stocked little kitchen. The rear terrace is also spacious and overlooks the beach with half covered and half open to the sky. All in all a GREAT place for your time in Cefalu, the only problem my wife and I had was we wish we could’ve stayed longer.

It would be impossible to find an apartment in a better location in Cefalu. This apartment is unique. We loved every minute of our stay. The memories of the sound of the waves and the beautiful sunsets will stay with us for a long time. It was wonderful to sit on the large terrace and relax in the the mornings and evenings. Francesco is a kind, thoughtful and responsive host. The apartment is well appointed and spotlessly clean. I hope we can come back again soon.

You can’t find a better location in Cefalu! Beautiful view and beach. Francesco is a great host.

Wonderful apartment right in the old town. The balcony and private stairs to the beach are reason enough to book. Francesco was wonderful!

Loved this place! Felt like we had access to our own private beach. The suite is larger than appears on line, and is very clean and well-organized. It also retains many of its original historic walls and arches. The location is very close to shops, restaurants, and the boardwalk. Francesco was very helpful at check in, and with restaurant recommendations. Would definitely stay here again.

Francesco's place is truly a gem! Not only was it immaculately clean but the views from the terrace are unbeatable. Having your own private access to the beach was a definite plus as was the lovely bakery next door. Will definitely make our way back to this little slice of heaven. Thank you Francesco!

We loved staying in Francesco’s beautifully designed seafront apartment. Morning swims from the balcony were a real highlight! Thank you Francesco!

One of the coolest, most unique apartments I’ve ever stayed in. Francesco is a great guy. 5 stars.

Location and view of the sea from the balcony breathtaking. Everything you can want or need is at your doorstep. Francesco is an outstanding host.

Amazing!!! the appartment is unique and special, great location on the water with private access to the best beach on the city. Francesco was very helpful we wishwe had more time in this amazing place ,we will come back

What a wonderful apartment, the sea view, the secret steps... living the dream. Everything you can do meet on the doorstep... Fantastic!!

Host super cortese gentile e disponibile e preciso posto meraviglioso senza eguali un paradiso ci vediamo il prossimo anno!

Amazing spot, photos don't do it justice. Could have stayed for far far longer... Francesco is great as well, very friendly and welcoming. Provided an excellent list of recommended restaurants and bars.

Dear Francesco, thank you once again for you letting us stay in your fantastic Terrazza! It feels like a second home to us now! It is always nice to stay in Cefalù our favourite tour in Sicily. We will be back, ciao!

Lovely apartment in a fantastic location. Francesco is a great host!

Just exceptional - this little romantic hideaway is truly special. The tiny cute kitchen, open spaces and beach views are gorgeous, but it is the hidden step access to the water that makes this place the gem that it is. Being able to soak in the sun of Cefalu on the privacy of the terrace before sauntering down the steps for a refreshing swim was just lovely. Francesco is a wonderful host who is so kind and welcoming, willing to help with any issues (not that there were any) and gave us his personal recommendations of restaurants. We really loved staying here - don’t hesitate, just book!

A fab location, great history to the house and a very welcoming host ! Can’t wait to come back at some point.

What a incredible place to end our tour around Sicily! The only place on this stretch of beach with its own unique each access! Everything exceed our expectations!

Just a perfect stay and host in a wonderful and quaint little city on the coast of Sicily

We had an absolutely amazing time staying at Francesco's beautiful property. Sea View, authentic style, beautiful terrace, private beach access and a great location make this property truly unique. We will certainly be staying again!

I spent 10 days in this spacious apartment with my wife. Location was excellent and the view from the balcony was stunning. We ended up spending a lot of time in the balcony and took gladly advantage of the unique possibility of private beach access. Francesco was very helpful and friendly host. Strong recommendation if you consider staying in Cefalu. Thank you Francesco!

Tanto amore e grazie mille molto, to darling Francesco and his family for letting us stay in this special , perfect place again! This really is the most beautiful spot, terrace, people, town... food and wine! The see the beach stunning magical sunsets on the one side, & the magnificent old town full of personality history delicious on the street. We are even more in love with this place + fell so lucky a blessed to have found a wonderful Francesco, la Terrazza, Cefalù... You can travel the world and never find anywhere as private, peaceful a perfect as this. Grazie mille ancora for all of your delicious recommendations Francesco, Cortile Pepe, la Brace, da Sasà and much more. For you kindness, your place + you! It has been the best holiday! Molti baci alla prossima volta! Ciao caro

Amazing apartment .. in every respect 2 meters to the sea stunning

We had 10 days in this magical place and hated to leave. Our host met us ar the train station and helped us to the apt. He was so warm and welcoming and right there with answers and suggestions when we needed it. He has a great manual in the apartment that covers everything. it was so special to go from quaint streets at the front door to unbelievable views from the very private terrace out back. The location is amazing. short walk to everything. You dont have to go more than 100 meters to have the best food ever. We will be back!

Extraordinaria ubicación, limpio, cómodo y el anfitrión de lo mejor, atento y simpático

Grazie mille per averci fatto vivere l'emozione di questa Terrazza, vi porteremo sempre nel cuore, alla prossima!

Francesco’s stay is absolutely amazing. It is centrally located to everything you’d want to see and do in Cefalu. He was a fantastic host and very helpful and communicative. The patio and beach are even prettier than the photos!

The best location you could ever ask for!

Francesco’s place is as everyone has already described - unique location and so nice being right on the beach, lovely apartment, and great communication and hospitality by Francesco. Highly recommend

We had the best time in Cefalu!! The apartment is magical and in the heart of the old district. The view from the terrace overlooking the sea was heavenly even if we weren’t blessed with the best weather! Francesco was an Amazing host, so helpful and really made sure our trip was the best it could be. Thank you!!!

Wundercooles Loft mit atemberaubender Aussicht. Der private Zugang zum Meer und die Terrasse sind der Hammer und die Lage ist phänomenal. Francesco als Superhost ist pünktlich, sehr freundlich, & hilfsbereit. Das Apartment entspricht voll und ganz den Beschreibungen.

Incredible location, Francesco helped with a thorough check in, great communication. Cannot recommend highly enough.

Francesco's appartment is a real gem. the terrace is a peace of heaven and the private access to the beach is a real plus. Francesco was really friendly and helpful. he responded very quickly and gave me several tips (parking, restaurants...) Francesco's appartmentis the place to be in Cefalu!

Francesco’s apartment is a little slice of heaven. I could sit on the balcony listening to the gentle lapping of the waves for an eternity. His place is perfect. Probably my favorite Airbnb ever. Don’t hesitate, just book. Francesco is also a very warm and welcoming individual. Grazie for a lovely stay!

Ben collocata nel centro storico….bellissima la terrazza con l’accesso diretto al mare da dove si può godere di stupendi tramonti. Francesco disponibilissimo e cordiale. Di sicuro da ritornare!!!

Just the most amazing time we’ve had. Beautiful place, incredibly lucky to be right next to the beach! The terrace with the sea view is gorgeous, the apartment is spacious and very clean. And Francesco is the most amazing host! Very friendly and helpful. Wish we could’ve stayed longer!

Francesco was very accommodating, he gave us a warm welcome, showed us around the place and gave us precious restaurants addresses to eat away from the main touristic places. The room is spacious, very well located, a tiny bit noisy as it is on the Main Street, but overall perfect access to the sea and the terrace/view might be the best in Cefalu!

Francesco´s apartment is a real gem. Although Cefalù is crowded in summer, within the apartment and on its outstanding terrace you live in perfect peace. It is definitely the best place in town. Francesco is a very polite and friendly host and explained to us many details about Cefalù and the history of the apartment, which is part of the ancient town wall.

Francesco è stato sempre gentile e premuroso. La casa è un posto molto speciale. L’accesso alla spiaggia è incredibile ed il tramonto unico. Sicuramente sarà una esperienza che vorremo fare ancora. P.S: svegliarsi con il rumore del mare e l’odore del pane appena sfornato (panificio accanto) è troppo bello

Die Wohnung von Francesco ist ein Schmuckstück! Von der Terrasse aus haben wir wunderschöne Sonnenuntergänge beobachtet und leckere Apéros genossen . Der Zugang zum Strand ist ein weiteres Highlight! Die Geräusche, die von der Gasse aus kommen, haben uns nicht gestört, still ist es jedoch nicht. Auch die Lage ist super, wir haben einen Roller gemietet und die Insel erkundet. Geführte Touren ab Cefalu werden ebenfalls angeboten. Francesco war sehr hilfsbereit und hat immer direkt geantwortet. Die Unterkunft ist einzigartig und kann von Herzen weiterempfohlen werden!”

Wonderfull place, entrance directly from the historic main street in Cefalu, beautifull terace. Really great stay

Communication was easy and Francesco greeted us with a bottle of local wine. The view and sound of the waves crashing from the terrace was lovely. With the beach and all the sites of Cefalù just outside the door, you can’t go wrong booking this apartment. Overnight parking was only a short beachfront walk away as well. Very relaxing stay and La Brace restaurant that Francesco recommended was one of our best experiences anywhere on the island.”

Very nice place, really directly at the sea / beach and in the city centre.”

We spent three nights in this flat and it was not enough. The photos do not do the space justice. It is the most amazing thing to enter the flat from the most central location off one of the old streets, to being in a quiet and calm oasis with the sound of the waves. Having the balcony with access to a small beach and the sea was the real winner! We arrived from Palermo airport and travelled very easily by train to Cefalu. It was then a simple 10min walk to the old town. Francesco greeted us on arrival and gave a very warm welcome. He was easy to contact and answered all are little queries. During our stay we spent most of the time exploring all the amazing food Cefalu has to offer! I cannot recommend this apartment enough.”

Amazing place and great host! Grazie mille!”

This place captured our hearts; the location, the views, the kindness of the host, all perfecto!! We felt a part of Cefalù for our short stay; buying fresh fruit from the wonderful Italian man and warm baked breads from the bakery next door each morning. The terrace is unbeatable for views of the sea and it’s special entrance to the beach and the water below. Walking through the winding and atmospheric streets of Cefalu was such a treat...along with all the stops for Prosecco, pizza, pasta, arancini, pastries and gelato!!! Take a short walk in the evening to sit on the steps of the cathedral to listen to the piano music from the restaurant and sample the mouthwatering gelato (from each of the counters if you can!!) This will be a place and a trip that we remember forever. Thank you Francesco xx”

Francesco’s home is truly magical! This really made Cefalu such a lovely trip, without it, I can’t imagine we’d of had the same experience. The terrace is absolutely beautiful and has the easiest access to the beach which is a real privilege. No hassle whatsoever to get to the beach. The terrace has the best views in Cefalu and is perfect for the sunset accompanied by a glass of wine (Francesco gifted us a bottle of wine when we arrived!). it’s located minutes away from the Cathedral and all the best surrounding restaurants. If you’re going to stay in Cefalu, make sure it’s here! Enjoy your stay whoever gets to stay here next.”

This place is incredible. The views from the terrace are stunning. I think this is the best place to stay in Cefalu. Francesco was really nice and had some good restaurant tips.”

La Terrazza is a one of a kind property. The photos of the view from the terrace do not do justice - you are literally 5 steps from the sea! The sunsets were unreal. Francesco is an amazing host and gave us a nice introduction to the apartment that he is very proud of and it shows in the presentation, architecture and cleanliness. He also provided some incredible tips for restaurants and things to do too. We just left today but thinking about the next time we go back already!

Wonderful terrace right in the middle of the old town. Fantastic for a sunset swim. Would fully recommend! Amazing communication throughout too.

Ciao Francesco, grazie mille abbiamo avuto una settimana meravigliosa nella tua casa. Sono sicura che ci rivedremo presto. Ogni parte della casa è perfetta! Sono venuta con l'amore della mia vita, ed è stato il luogo ideale per tutti. Ci piace moltissimo la località, e tutte le cose importanti nella città. Grazie mille, aspettoci ci vediamo presto! PS.: Perdona l'italiano male, sono studentessa inglese!

We had a wonderful stay at Francesco's place. The terrace on the sea is incredible - being able to sit there with drinks and watch the sunset was the highlight. We also loved the secret steps directly down from the terrace to the beach and sea. The place itself was sparkling clean, and Francesco had great hints and tips for the area. Recommend!!

Francesco has a great place for anytime of the year. It’s central to everything in the perfect quiet town of Cefalu. He was very helpful and accommodating to my check in time as it was later than expected. He met me at the train station which was an easy walk to the apartment. On our walk he gave great advice for the area and what I could expect to see around the town. Everything was what he told me about. I recommend if you ever find yourself in Sicily Cefalu is a town you must give a visit. The apartment it’s self was greatly designed with fabulous touches. It’s right by a Main Street so you have access to everything with a few steps. The terrace is what really makes the apartment though. The veiws of the city and sea are breathtaking anytime of the day. Thank you for a wonderful stay and all your help Francesco!

Eine wunderbare Wohnung in einer wunderschönen Gegend. Es war sehr schön!

This was a lovely and historic setting to enjoy your trip to Cefalu. Our host was very helpful and attentive. He was flexible to accommodate our arrival time and gave his personal recommendations for restaurants. The private terrace was incredible!! Note, however that you will need to park your car about 5 mins from the apartment and wheel your luggage into the historic center. The cobble stone road is a bit bumpy, but not of a huge concern. Parking costs here were less than other towns we visited.

Francesco's place is amazing. The location is perfect. You have the beach directly behind you and you're close to all the restaurants and shopping. Would highly recommend

A beautiful gem of a place, stunning location, simple but romantic hideaway with steps to the sea!

Our stay at Francesco’s Terrazza was amazing! The location within Cefalù was wonderful, with easy access to the train station and the beach. All the restaurants and bars you would want to try were steps away. The terrace was even more beautiful in person, and when the sea is calm there’s a little staircase that allows direct access to the sand and water. The view is stunning. Francesco was a wonderful host, very kind and quick to respond to questions. He even helped us sort out an extremely early morning taxi ride to PMO. We would certainly stay here again and highly recommend his place to anyone searching for a spot in Cefalù!

Thanks Francesco! Location is amazing, the terrace is a Dream. In the back the old City in the front the sea. Francesco answered quickly and is a very friendly guy. Would highly recommend it when visit Cefalu. Thanky again!

Estuvimos encantados y como en casa en esta magnifica terraza. Inmejorable localizacion y vistas a la playa de Cefalu, con propio acceso desde la casa. Dispone de menaje y de todo tipo de utensilios. Todo increíble. No dudaremos en repetir y en recomendar esta terraza a todo el que visite Cefalu!

The terrace by the sea was just wow!

Un must! El mejor lugar para estar hospedado en Cefalu. Increíble lugar en una localidad espectacular. Cefalu es un lugar de esos imperdibles, y en la terrazza del pozzo hace que la experiencia sea aún mejor. Toda mi recomendación a quien ande buscando donde quedarse en Cefalu.

We absolutely loved our stay at Francesco’s apartment. The location is amazing and the terrace is spectacular especially at sunset. Francesco was a great help and make sure to ask him for restaurant tips. This was a highlight of our Sicily trip!

Francesco's apartment is located in the heart of Cefalu, waterfront with easy beach access. Spectacular views from the Mediterranean front terrace with unobstructed views of the water. Francesco is a great host with great communications. When looking for a place to stay in Cefalu, stay at this apartment!

Wonderful place and experience!

A truly magical place with amazing views and a brilliant host!

Great place centrally located with a beautiful view! Francesco was very helpful and friendly too!

Francesco’s apartment is truly amazing. Perfectly located in the old town but with its own beach access. I was surprised by the size of the space as well as the secure and quiet location. I would highly recommend the apartment and would definitely return and book again for longer next time.

What a special location. The terrace is simply magical. The apartment itself has all the basics. It is not luxurious or modern, but certainly due to location and the terrace perfection! We hope to return. Francesco is super helpful and enthusiastic.

Un incroyable endroit!

Grazie Mille once again Francesco. The perfect location, the perfect host, the perfect Terrazza!! We have already booked to come back and can’t wait!

Francesco’s terrazza is probably the best place we have ever stayed. The view from the terrazza out the back and the access to the beach is amazing and a very unique property. We loved Cefalù and our stay and can’t wait to get back. Francesco’s energy and passion regarding his rich history within Cefalù and his place is palpable and a delight. Highly recommend this place!

Book this place! This is the most amazing spot in Cefalu! The location is amazing- in the historical center, on the beach with a terrace- the only place like it! Francesco met us at the train station and his love of Cefalu is contagious! He shared some local tips for us on where to eat and there was plenty to choose from. It’s a busy beach spot with lots to do and see. It was relaxing to sit on the terrace and watch the beach scene below- and going for a dip right down the steps into the sea. Wonderful experience!

This is an amazing apartment in a perfect location. You step out of the front door into the vibrant streets or Cefalù and through the back door onto the terrace it’s perfect calming views of the beach and the sea The apartment is very clean and tidy, lovely shower and you can enjoy the sea views from the end of the bed! It’s not ultra modern so if your looking for that find a hotel! There is only a small hob and microwave for cooking but with so many restaurants at great prices on your doorstep all you really need is the kettle for a morning cuppa and the ice compartment for the evening G&T The pictures do not do the location justice and it’s even better than we hoped for. Francesco is a great host answering all queries and questions very quickly. We will definitely go back.

Omg a gem, a truly special place, one of which you don't often encounter, even as an avid traveler and AirBnB user. Francesco is a great host, kind, chatty and proud of his property that he as a architect has designed. Waking up, walking onto the terrace, medidating, then jumping into the sea, literally on your door step, getting wine and pastries from next door winery and bakery and then not moving from that private balcony for two days was truly blissful. If you want to have a special dinner, and don't mind dishing out some money go for a personal connection of Francescos, Cortile Pepe, a tasting menu sicilian food extravaganza. Ive had a more momorable meal there than many michelin star restaurants. If you are thinking about booking this house...dont think twice, just book before someone else does.

Incredible location, the balcony/patio over looking the ocean is as good as life gets! francesco was helpful, easy and a delight.Thanks so much, for your days spending here! I hope see again.

We really enjoyed this apartment!! So unique and magical-both the apartment and Cefalú. Francesco has been a very good host, extremely kind and helpful! We will definitely come back!

This a very special property because of the location. Its right on the beach and in the center of of town! There is beach access for those with normal mobility (might be hard for elderly). The back patio overlooking to ocean/cefalu harbor is excellent and we enjoyed our sunsets drinking wine! The Apartment is a studio which was very clean and comfortable for us as a couple and had basic amenities and a very cool historical feel with the ancient well inside. The entrance to the apartment is on one of the main pedestrian paths and can generate some noise. The apartment is surrounded by good restaurants and shops and the bakery next door had great pastries for breakfast and great bread. Francesco was a great host and a very friendly and nice person, responding quickly and meeting us and checking us in very smoothly and gave great restaurant recommendations.

I feel confident in saying there is no place like Francesco's! The space itself is straightforward, but very comfortable. The location is great, in the heart of Cefalu and steps away from the main beach and cute little harbor beach. You have direct sea access from the terrace, but walking is just as easy. Even though you are on street level, the place is super quiet. All that aside, this place is all about the terrace. AND IT SHOULD BE! I spent every moment I could on the roomy terrace gazing out onto the sea and stunning sunsets! I felt like the smartest person alive, that I did not have to pay big bucks for a mediocre dinner so I could enjoy a Cefalu sunset. The terrace alone makes this a must-stay, but Francesco is not resting on his laurels. He was a terrific host, responsive, very friendly, and providing thoughtful touches. Cannot recommend enough.

If you are looking for a place to stay in Cefalu this is hands down the most perfect place you will find. It’s like a dream. Francesco was incredibly kind and helpful. I cant wait until I come back and stay here again.

Awesome spot, fab recommendations... everything you would want and more!!

Que dire de la Terrazza del Pozzo? les mots paraitront bien faibles. Disons : un endroit merveilleux taillé dans un large mur médiéval où quelques marches conduisent à la mer, dans une petite ville dans son jus.

Amazing host! Amazing location. We would love to return to this place.

We only stayed two nights but should have stayed longer. The sunset on the first evening was very special. A great place to stay. Best of all though was Francesco helping us get out passports... We can’t thank him enough!

Die Unterkunft von Francesco ist ein wunderbarer Ort!!! Die Sonnenuntergänge auf der Terrassen sind unübertroffen. Cefalù ist lebendig und alles liegt direkt vor der Haustür. Trotzdem, sobald die Türe zu ist, ist man in einem kleinen Paradies. Francesco ist als Gastgeber super. Die Kommunikation war immer sehr schnell, hilfreich, alles hat reibungslos und freundschaftlich geklappt. Tolle Restaurant- und Kulturempfehlungen. Gracie!!!!

Francesco's place in Cefalù is absolutely perfect. Francesco is a wonderful host who made our visit truly perfect. The location is fantastic, and it could not be a better way to visit the wonderful city of Cefalù.

This must be one of the most unique place I’ve ever been! In the hearth of the old town, direct access to the sea and all the things you need for the perfect holiday in just few steps from the apartment. The communication with Francesco was easy and fast. Highly recommend!

What a wonderful place. Looking at the sea from the window you feel like living in a dream. The constant sound of the sea is like a lullaby. Francesco was really helpful, giving us tips and advise. The place was perfectly clean and is nicely decorated. Thank you!

What a magical place. And Francesco was always available for questions and making arrangements for us. Being right on the water and hearing the waves, enjoying the beach right in front of our private patio... well, it doesn’t get any better than this. And the location in the old town was perfect. Lots of great restaurants and shops... who needs to leave Cefalù? We will be back again for sure. Thank you Francesco for sharing your special place.

Wir hatten eine wundervolle Zeit in Francescos Ferienwohnung, in der wir dem kühlen grauen Deutschland entfliehen konnten. Sonne tanken vom Bett aus, das Meeresrauschen, Möwensingen und atemberaubende Sonnenuntergänge von der Terrasse direkt am Meer aus genießen, durch die Gassen der Altstadt bummeln und leckere Brötchen gibts morgens gleich nebenan. Die Lage und Ausstattung war einfach fantastisch. Francesco war außerdem sehr zuvorkommend, hilfsbereit und gab uns wertvolle Tipps. Nur zu empfehlen. 5 Sterne!

A fantastic home to stay in Cefalu. Great view of the sea. And Francesco is quite friendly. Recommond to everyone. 非常美妙的一个屋子,拥有cefalu最好的海景,房东非常热心且有善,房子设计感十足,推荐给每一个人

Believe everything about this place that it reads in the description. It’s artistic, interesting, comfortable and clean. We would stay here again and recommend it to anyone who comes here. So beautiful!!

We loved our winter stay at Francesco’s home. It’s perfectly located in the middle of town, walking distance to bakery, coffee, wine, cheese and meat shops. We brought food home and spent plenty of time on the beautiful porch overlooking the ocean. Francesco was very helpful with check in and providing us with local tips. Excellent stay!

Communication with Francesco was excellent from the start. He met me at the train station and guided me to the apartment. It is much more spacious than I expected and it has many thoughtful and creative touches in the design that are truly unique. The location is absolutely perfect for exploring Cefalu. The terrace view cannot be beat. I enjoyed 4 days in the apartment with the door wide open listening to the sea and cannot wait to come back. Thanks, Francesco for your warm hospitality and sharing your love for Cefalu with me.

Francesco was amazing! He arranged our pick up from the airport and met us to walk us to his beautiful place on the sea. The views were glorious, the house was located perfectly in the hustle of it all but yet was quiet once you were tucked away behind closed doors! Our arrival was late so it was extra special for Francesco to leave for us light eats and a bottle of red! Communication with Francesco was prompt and friendly! I would not only recommend staying here to anyone thinking about Cefalu but I will be returning myself!

Dear Francesco, thank you so much! The apartment is wonderful, the position is perfect! Forward planning our returns to this place in Cefalù

Grazie per la disponibilità, la gentilezza e per averci fatto sentire la bellezza di questo posto e l'incanto di questa casa immersa tra pietre, sabbia, mare e sospesa nel tempo!

Francesco’s place is amazing. Incredible views of the ocean on one side, with the streets of Cefalu’s historic district on the other. Kind locals, great food and a wine. Will definitely stay here again when we take our next trip to Cefalu!

Outstanding. Unique. Close to everything:dining, gelato, wine and a bakery right next door, fresh pastry in morning and a fruit cart at front door at 11:00 yelling their fare. Sun set almost as good as vancouver island. Cefalu!

Dear Francesco, we can't express how lucky we are to found this place! It is amazing.. no photo can show how wonderful Terrazza is, so stylish, perfectly clean and easy! Definitely the best place in Cefalú or in whole Italy... or world! You can't even dream of a better place to stay, sea by one side and old town by another. Thank you so much for hospitality and your recommendations, we enjoyed every moment of our stay. Wishing you all the best! Hope to come back some day..

Thank you Francesco, for the use of this lovely apartment. The outlook was what were hoping for plus more. We thoroughly enjoyed our two swims each day and to be able to scramble up to the apartment made it even more exciting! The position is perfect loved the fruit and vegetable seller calling out his wares from his small truck each morning and our few supplies from his. Enjoyed the walk up La Rocca well worth the effort! Hopefully we can meet again. Ciao!

Logement au top! Je recommande à fond! Accès privé à la plage tellement génial! Terrasse fabuleuse avec vue imprenable en plein cœur du centre historique! Francesco nous a très accueillis et permis de rester un peu plus tard le dernier jour! Un vrai bonheur!

El apartamento es maravilloso, el sonido del mar y la luz que refleja al igual que los atardeceres. El primer día decidimos ampliar la estancia. Francesco es un gran anfitrión que nos explicó todo de la casa y los principales lugares de Cefalu y nos ayudó desde la estación de tren. Genial!

Where else in Italy can you find a beach front home that’s also in the center of all the action? This place was a dream. The terrace was the perfect spot to start the day with espresso and croissant and cap the night with a bottle of wine!

Super schöne Unterkunft im alten Stil. Die Terrasse ist toll für den Sonnenuntergang und der private Weg zum Strand auch von Vorteil. Die Unterkunft war sauber und schön eingerichtet. Es ist sehr zentral, und es sind gute Restaurants und Einkaufsmöglichkeiten in der Nähe. Gern wieder.

テラスからビーチに出られて、夕陽も見えて、素晴らしいロケーションのお家です! チェファルに行くなら是非ここに泊まってみて下さい。 とても素敵な体験が出来ます。ホストの方も親切で話しやすく、ワインもプレゼントして下さいました。 Nous avons passé le moment inoubliable. Je recommande ! absolument.

ciao Francesco! we have had a wonderful week at La Terrazza, as usual! This place is inimitable!! See you soon!

This place is absolutely unique. It has the best location in Cefalu and its own stair to the beach from the terrasse. Francesco is an amazing host. It is tempting to keep this place a secret. We would love to come back anytime!

Great location, great host!

Ciao Francesco, thank you for a wonderful week at La Terrazza! What a lovely place!

This is a lovely apartment, perfectly located for the beach and for access to the old town of Cefalù. The terrace is sunny in the afternoon and has great views of the sunset. Francesco was really helpful, met us on arrival and gave us some great dinner tips!

You will not find a more scenic, beautiful, and convenient apartment in Cefalu than Terrazzo del Pozzo. The panoramic sunsets over the sea are spectacular. These views alone from the terrace are worth the rental cost. The beach is only a few steps from the rear terrace. Francesco is a very attentive and responsive host. He was great. My wife and I definitely plan to return one day.

Magnificent! Unique space in the center of old Cefalú with an awesome front-row view of the beautiful ocean and sunsets. Right next to a bakery so the smell of fresh bread is what you wake up to. We were very fortunate to have had the chance to experience Cefalù this way!

This place is right on the water! Which is so unique because there aren’t many that are. We loved the private terrace and listening to the ocean every night and morning. It was centrally located and only steps to great restaurant, bars and shops.

I cannot say enough good things about Francesco or his home. He is a fabulous host and the space is comfortable and beautiful. We have stayed in many places all over US and Europe. This one is our favorite, it is truly unique.

Eine unbeschreibliche Unterkunft, intensiver kann Italien nicht genossen werden. Zum Wasser hin ist das Appartement unschlagbar, mit eigenem strandzugang und in den Tagen mit einer Serie an Sonnenuntergängen nur für einen alleine. Und geht man vor die Tür steht man inmitten der wunderschönen Altstadt, . Morgens wird man entweder vom Gemüse- oder Fischhändler, die mit ihren Karren laut rufend, oder ist es singend, ihre Waren anpreisen und auch schon mal per heruntergelassenem Korb in die oberen Stockwerke liefern. Ein begeisternder Urlaub.

This has to be the most amazing place we have ever stayed! Absolutely stunning inside and out. The terrazzo has the most beautiful views of the stunning sunset. Highly recommend this place for any couple visiting Cefalu. I cannot imagine there is a better place with so much character, in a central location, and a wonderful host.

As an armchair archaeologist, Francesco's property was perfect for me. The outside space incorporated ancient arches, megalithic blocks and a medieval well. A bonus was another well indoors (perfectly safe) and original bricks left exposed. Francesco has sympathetically modernised this apartment which had everything we needed for our stay. It's position in the heart of the old town is perfect - there's a bakery next door, an Enoteca (wine shop) next to that and, a few doors down the street, a weeny, well stocked general store. I must confess to a degree of smugness as I sipped my sundowner on the terrace and imagined the less fortunate tourists envying my situation! Francesco was a prompt, informative and kind host and we very much enjoyed meeting him. Thank you for having us - a presto!

Merci beaucoup Francesco pour ce superbe séjour. Les apéritifs sur la terrasse et lo baignade restaurant longtemps dans nos coeurs! Grazie mille

Charming apartment with the greatest view in Cefalù. Located in the heart of the city, yet quet and peaceful atmosphere. The terrace is facing west so we enjoyed some unforgettable sunsets private dinners. The town itself, Cefalù is absolutely charming and a must see attractions in Sicily. One of the places you wish to return. The owner was very nice and always helpful. Simply the perfect stay in the perfect place.

We had a lovely stay ! the view was spectacular from the patio. The house was located right in the centre of Cefalu. It was just idyllic!

Francesco is a very gracious host with a beautiful apartment. The view from the terrace is one of a kind. I’d highly recommend staying here and look forward to doing it again one day. Thank you again Francesco!

Absolutely stunning apartment. Offers everything as promised - and more. Beautiful! Francesco is extremely friendly and very helpful. Thanks!

Francesco, thank you for welcoming us to your beautiful home. We enjoyed our stay and your hospitality! Let us know if you venue back over to the states. Happy holidays!

The place is just exceptional, unbelievable to stay in the center of a historical city and directly on the beach at the same time. Francesco is simply the kindest host ever, always answering and helping, he makes you feel like his private guest. I miss sitting on that beautiful terrace all ready, hope to come back soon!

Beautifully situated right in the old city of Cefalu with a stone balcony over the water. Spectacular views. A few stairs down to the beach. Perfect privacy for sharing a cup of coffee in the morning or a glass of wine in the evening. Clean, efficient and charming with old world character. The BEST! We will be back.

I was overwhelmed of how beautiful your Terrace Apartment was, I loved being able to listen to the waves crashing at night. Beautiful sunrise & sunset views. Great to have private access to the beach, water was lovely. Will be back!!

Probably the most unique place in Cefalù. Clean, perfect location, amazing terrace...everything perfect! We couldn't ask for anything better! We truly loved it!

Unique property with a great terrace facing onto the sea, we enjoyed drinking wine while looking at amazing sunsets. Private stairs leading down to the little beach were a definite bonus! Location right in the old city centre is perfect if you want to be in the heart of it all. Overall a great place to stay.

This home is great for living in Cefalu. It is located in the heart of the old town and has access to both the busy street and the beach, so it's hard to imagine a better location. Francesco was very kind, he was always in touch on all issues. The terrace and sunsets that you can watch are really beautiful. In general, this is one of the most original places in which we live! Thank you, Francesco, it was a great time!

Lieber Francesco, rum 3. Man vielen danke es wär wieder einmal schon wie immer. Thank you very much.

Very central but calm place with privat stairs to the beach. we spent some wunderful and relaxing days in busy cefalu. the location is just perfect in the old part of the town which is quite busy. but coming in to the apartement with the stunning terrace you can leave everything behind and enjoy the view of the sea and the beach.

We visited Cefalù on our honeymoon and could not have hoped for a more fantastic spot to stay, right on the doorstep of the beautiful community that is Cefalù this place speaks for itself. No hotel has such amenities or character and history as this place. You are a couple of steps from your own balcony which leads to the beach and right at the front entrance is the very busy old town buzzing with culture. Francesco was a beautiful host who looked after us and gave us plenty of recommendations of how to spend our time. This holiday was a perfect opportunity to revisit the roots of the area which our family come from, it did not disappoint. We will definitely be back! Thank you very much.

Hi Francesco! Thank you for a great stay at your place, it is perfect! We hope to coming back one day.

Tout était parfait: l'appartement, l'emplacement et surtout la magnifique terrasse qui possède un accès privatisé à la plage. La plage est d'ailleurs magnifique et très agréable pour la baignade. L'hôte, Francesco, est quelqu'un d'adorable, très disponible et très réactif pour les messages. Nous avons vraiment adoré notre séjour à Céfalù et espérons y retourner très vite!

Thank you Francesco for being so welcoming and helpful. This beautiful place will be eternal in our memories for ever! We will back! Best wished!

The patio on the sea is spectacular. And the private access to the beach is quite a luxury! Thanks Francesco, you've been a great host, I recommend Cefalu as a place to visit to all the future guests reading this!

We loved our stay here back in 2013 that much that decided to come back to Cefalu and stay again at la terrazza del pozzo. It is worth it purely for the balcony and view alone, there is nothing more relaxing than sitting there and watching the sunset with a drink before you head out for the evening. It is equally beautiful to buy some fresh bread from the bakers next door and have breakfast on the balcony before heading down to the beach via the private access you have from the apartment. Cefalu itself had a beautiful beach and is full of beautiful buildings and restaurants I would recommend this apartment and the town to anyone! Hope to see you again soon Francesco.

Hi Francesco! A wonderful 4 days stay at your Terrazza. Great days, great food, great vino, great sushi, great panini, great town, great sun bathing, great drinks, great football matches!

We had only 3 days stay here but the appartement and its place at the beach made it 3 great days!!! We hope to return!!

Un posto meraviglioso, una terrazza sul mare cristallino di Cefalù e un accesso esclusivo alla stupenda spiaggia sulla foce rinfrescante del Cefalino. Complimenti per la location e il servizio che il buon Francesco riesce a fornire. Consigliamo a tutti questo scorcio sul mare di Cefalù. Torneremo presto!

My boyfriend and I had the most wonderful stay in this perfect apartment. Francesco was a welcoming and kind host, we both liked him a lot. Cefalu is a beautiful town with delicious food and an amazing cathedral. The apartment is right on the beach and we watched the sunset every evening. We would both say that our holiday in the Terrazza was the best holiday we have ever had. I would highly recommend staying here. We will definitely be returning next year.

We had a great stay here at the Pozzo and Cefalù. Thank you letting us stay here and thanks for lovely bottle of wine! The village is wonderful, great food, great view. We love to come back again. Grazie mille!! Ciao.

Salut Francesco! Nous avons passé une semaine magnifique ici à Cefalù. Merci pour fut accueil. A bientôt.

Francesco was there to greet and give us a warm welcome us when we arrived at his beautiful flat located in the perfect place to explore Cefalu! With a front door opening to the ancient network of streets and a backdoor to the sea and beach, you really couldn't ask for anything better. Central proximity to everything, modern kitchen and bathroom, and a spacious terrace overlooking the waves make this place immediately feel like home. Amazing sunsets off the back terrace and proximity to everything are just a few of many pluses. We stayed for 5 nights and will definitely be returning again!

Thank you for a wonderful weekend getaway. What a great place you have here. So lovely to open the door in the morning to hear the waves lapping at the shore. Much warmer than chilly London, we even had a swim! Thanks for all your help.

Thank you Francesco, we loved your apartment with the beautiful terrace right on the sea. What a wonderful place and so beautiful and romantic to fall asleep and wake up to the sound of the sea. This place is the perfect romantic gateway and all who come here will fall in love with Cefalú and the wonderful people who live there. Grazie Francesco!

We have a superb time in Cefalú. The sun shone every day and the native were very friendly. We loved the peace and the serenity of the Terrazza and the hustle and bustle of real every day life just outside the front door. A complete contrast of ways of life within one lovely house. Thank you Francesco for sharing your house with us.

The most amazing place to stay in Cefalu (and Sicily)! The charm and the amazing location and the fantastic terrazza. Bakery next door, lots of restaurants just a few meters from the apartment - unbeatable! Not to mention the beach just in front.

Hello Francesco! Thank you so much Christine and I had a brillant and wonderful time! My birthday was special stayning in such a beautiful location, Cefalu was fun to explore and swinning every day and spending time view was a real pleasure. Great food and wine as well!! We will too back! Grazie mille.

As ever magical and the wonderful Cefalú. Thank you Francesco for the very special Terrazza del Pozzo. We will back, warm regards!

2nd consecutive visit! Another wonderful holiday here in Cefalú. We had a fabulous time and really relaxing dining long lazy days here on the Terrazza. Thanks!

Thank you for a wonderful holiday. This is the three time in this apartment, and the four time in Cefalú. We'll be back!!

Grazie Francesco! Cefalù è bellissima e soggiornare nella tua casetta ha reso la nostra permanenza davvero speciale! Non dimenticheremo mai la Terrazza del Pozzo! Speriamo di poter tornare il prossimo anno.
