- Leonard (10/5): -
- Sarah (10/5): Magnificent location and welcoming hosts. - Everything, LOCATION magnificent, Antonella and parents treated us like family. They were there is meet and great show us into the most beautiful spacious apartment overlooking the water and 5 mins walk from the main town. Wonderful hosts giving us information on restaurants and activities. Apartment was so clean and had everything you needed and so happy they arranged parking for us. Our family of 5 highly recommend this apartment! 10 out of 10z
- Marco (10/5): - casa dotata di tutti i confort in posizione centrale me in una zona tranquilla, con una bellissima vista mare.I proprietari molto gentili, disponibili, attenti e desiderosi di fare di tutto per garantire un soggiorno a Cefalù di relax, divertimento e qualità. Cefalù è incantevole e i ristoranti che ci sono stati consigliati sono davvero ottimi per qualità, tradizione e prezzo. tutto ok.
- Tania (8/5): Enjoyable - Fantastic location.
Host were amazing, went above and beyond to make our enjoyable.
View was so nice to wake up to. N/A
- Roberto (9/5): Loved it would be back in Cefalu in a heartbeat ✌️ - Very clean and has all the amenities you need and it is in an excellent position. Both Antonella and Maria Rita were super responsive and gave excellent recommendations of were to eat and experience all the little hidden treasures of Cefalu Perhaps the one thing that can be improved is the water pressure in the shower
- Brett (10/5): A truly unforgettable stay filled with warmth, comfort, and the sound of the sea! - We had the most wonderful stay at this beautiful seaside apartment in Cefalù. From the moment we arrived, we were warmly welcomed by Maria Rita and her daughter Antonella, who truly went above and beyond to make us feel at home. They met us personally, showed us where to park by the port and gave us a thorough overview of the apartment and Cefalu town.
The location could not be more perfect—just a short walk into the heart of Cefalù, with easy access to grocery stores, restaurants, shops, and of course, the beach. It was so convenient to explore the town on foot and then return to our quiet, comfortable retreat by the sea.
The apartment itself is spacious, spotlessly clean, and beautifully renovated with tasteful decor. It had everything we needed, including a washing machine. The two balconies were a dream—one facing the sea where we enjoyed our morning coffee listening to the waves just a few feet away, and the other perfect for people-watching and taking in the lively local atmosphere.
Antonella went over and above to answer any questions we had during our stay, offer recommendations, and even help book local trips or suggest restaurants—each one we tried was fantastic. They even provided beach towels and beach umbrellas, which made our seaside days completely stress-free.
This was more than just a place to stay—it felt like a home away from home, thanks to the warmth and generosity of our hosts. Thank you, Maria Rita and Antonella, for sharing your beautiful space and your wonderful hospitality. We truly hope to return one day! n/a
- Sofia (9/5): Perfect apartment by the water - Location was ideal for walking into the town, getting a few groceries, restaurants, etc. The owners were so helpful, available when we arrived and by text anytime to provide information about the apartment and the city. The spacious apartment had a washing machine, which was so appreciated. Drinking coffee on the balcony looking and hearing the ocean a few feet away…what an experience Unfortunately there was a Cefalu internet issue when we arrived which was bad luck but it got resolved within a day. A second key would be helpful for families, and an extra clothes rack for the balcony. These were minor issues compared to all the positives of this lovely apartment.
- Yolanda (10/5): Location perfect to walk into town and very comfortable apt - Location was wonderful and Antonella, property assistant was such a helpful and kind person. Nothing, everything was great
- Ann (10/5): Exceptional -
- Anne (10/5): Fabulous three night stay in Cefalu - Fantastic first floor apartment within walking distance of all the amenities of Cefalu. We were met by the owner Maria and her daughter Antonella who showed us where to park our car and gave us a thorough tour of the apartment. Lovely people and very welcoming. Antonella can recommend restaurants and book trips for guests.
Brights and welcoming apartment with two small balconies and everything guests will need. Nothing
- Ariane (10/5): We had an amazing stay and would definitely recommend Sciannamare to friends. Thank you! - We experienced a very warm welcome by Antonella and Maria Rita. Antonella gave us many recommendations for restaurants in town. The flat was very clean, newly renovated, with large rooms. The interior is tastefully decorated and well equipped, and you have a beautiful sea view from 2 balconies, on which you can sit and enjoy observing people walking by. The hosts also offer bathing towels and beach umbrellas. The parking is by the port, which allows you to grab a coffee with the local fishermen at the local café there before you set off for the day. Nothing
- Marie (10/5): Exceptional - The location is absolutely perfect, a couple minutes walk only to the centre of Cefalu, and the two balconies overseeing the sea are a dream ! Antonella and her parents were extremely welcoming, they helped us park in their private parking (8min walk) and gave us great recommendations! Everything was perfect
- Rodrigo (10/5): Exceptional - What an amazing stay at had! Maria Rita and Antonella were amazing hosts, always available for any questions and always with great tips and recommendations... Just follow what they say and you will not regret it. The apartment is super cute, super clean and really comfortable. On top you are waking distance from the old town center with all shops and restaurants you can wish for. Starting the morning with that beautiful view was just a dream. The kitchen is fully equipped with all the basic pantry items you might night too get the cooking started( coffee, sugar, salt, oil... Is all there). Welcoming wine and local fruits was another warm touch. Highly recommend a stay here and would easily go back if we have the chance. Thank you very much Maria Rita and Antonella, it was a pleasure meeting you. Nothing
- Jaimee (10/5): Exceptional - Lovely place to stay p, beautiful view and close walk to everything. The hosts were very helpful and gave us great recommendations.
- Nicola (9/5): An enjoyable stay in a stylish, well-located apartment with a warm welcome from our hosts. - Our hosts Maria-Rita, Antonella and Paolo gave us a warm welcome and took me to park the car in their free space before driving me back to the apartment. The apartment is modern in style and spotlessly clean. Maria-Rita had put local wine and water in the fridge for us, which was a lovely welcome. The view from the balconies is great and I enjoyed waking to the sound of the sea. Antonella had some great recommendations of places to eat and was keen to make our visit to Cefalu as happy as possible. It was easy to walk around Cefalu and reach everywhere pretty quickly. We enjoyed time on the beach and particularly loved the shallow water and sand bank close to the shore. At the end of our stay, Paolo very helpfully took me back to collect our car. The apartment was cold when we arrived (our stay was in mid-April) and, although we were able to use the air conditioning system for heating, the rooms tended to drop cool again quite quickly once the air conditioning was turned off. We just made sure we put the heating on as soon as we returned to the apartment.
- Peter (10/5): Plenty to see all within walking distance , great view of the sea from the balcony - Spacious appartment in good location for the old town. Antonella met us on arrival and looked after us during our stay.
Would not hesitate to recommend
- Marien (10/5): Exceptional - Very friendly hosts. Great views. Nothing
- Brett (10/5): Lovely apartment in great location to main town and fantastic friendly family hosting. - This is a lovely clean and open apartment in great location with amazing views. The host family are lovely and met us to show us apartment and also provided a wealth of information on what to see and where to dine in local areas which was fantastic. The apartment is above some local shops and a car workshop next door which gives a lovely local feel to the spot.
- Courtney (10/5): What a beautiful home. Close to everything and views of the ocean. Wonderful family that showed us great restaurants and - Everything was great! The family is so lovely and helped us find everything we should need for our stay. Location is great right in town.
- Jerome (10/5): Paradise in Cefalu! - Amazing location overlooking the water and so close to the town centre. Antonella is so helpful in providing local restaurants, cafes, bakery and sightseeing activities! Waking up every morning to the sound of the ocean makes this place a mini paradise. A bowl of fresh fruits and local Sicilian wine was a lovely touch! Microwave will have been useful but the property had everything you will need for a pleasant stay, including washing machine!
- Samantha (9/5): Superb -
- Irene (10/5): Beautiful surroundings and comfortable living - Our host and family met us. They helped with everything including taking my husband to park the car. The apartment was immaculate clean. The view from the small terrace and one of the rooms was so beautiful. The hosts provided great recommendations and checked on us during our stay. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Grazie Mille Maria, Paolo & Antonella That our trip was too shot
- Ciara (10/5): Very enjoyable. - Amazing views. Great location near centre. Clean, comfortable beds. Friendly owners.
- Yvonne (8/5): Excellent accomadation in quiet central location - Very close to the main piazza but not at all noisy Second bedroom window opened out onto a wall
- Mihaly (10/5): Perfect accommodation with a beautiful view, close to the center and to the rocky beach - Everything was outstanding: the amenities were well-equipped, spacious rooms, the cleanliness was impeccable, the location was ideal, and the hospitality was exceptional.Thank you for creating such a wonderful environment. I will definitely recommend your property to others and look forward to the possibility of staying again in the future.
- Jeff (10/5): Great Location, Clean with a View - Everything. The owners included the wife, husband and son. They were all super friendly, helpful and communicative. The property what immaculate and modern. It wasn't the largest during our stays on our trip but the sizes of rooms were perfect and the views are even more beautiful in person.
The location is great because there is a beautiful rock beach steps away and then there is the walk into the busy area right around the corner. It's perfect as it is close enough to access while just far enough to not hear the nightlife when trying to sleep. Everything is in walking distance.
Absolutely recommend staying here! The parking spot was quite some distance away which was tough in the heat but the owner kindly drops you off on the first day and you don't need your car until you leave and it's free so it's worth it.
- Steven (10/5): Exceptional - Absolutely beautiful!
Such a hospital family that couldn't do enough for us, from providing a beautifully clean house with all amenities such as cleaning products, washing detergents, tea, coffee, water and white wine we couldn't ask for anything more!
Location was perfect, and everything was within walking distance!
Can't wait to go back, we are a family of 4 and it was perfect 👌 😍
- Camilla (10/5): Perfect place with lovely owners - a real gem! - Wonderful property in a quieter less touristic part of Cefalù but only a 3 minute walk from the centre. It’s newly renovated and impeccably cleaned.
Great hosts - caring, responsive, a lot of attention to small details (water bottles, wine & fresh fruit upon arrival) and super well equipped for the beach (parasols & beach chairs). Nothing to not like.
- Joeri (10/5): Exceptional - Everything. The hosting family was very nice and their son spoke English very well. The flat is in a quiet but very central place in town. It took 2 mins to jump into the sea. Probably the best place in cefalu for that money! Nothing. Everything was extremely clean!
- Michael (10/5): Would highly recommend the apartment to anyone staying at Cefalù - Great staff, location and a very spacious apartment which had as the amenities required
- Mario (9/5): Superb -
- Martin (10/5): Fantastic, and we can really reccomend! - Great location just next to city center. The apartmen really had both charm, style and functionality and was very clean! Everything worked really well and the hosts were so nice and kind! N.a
- Ashlee (8/5): Clean, comfortable apartment with incredible sea views - What a lovely location! It’s a 15 to 20 min walk from the train station. Once you are at the apartment it’s a 5 min walk to everything including 2 grocery stores 😁 you have an incredible view of the water from the 2 balcony’s and you can hear the sea splashing on the rocks.
We were greeted by Maria Rita and she helped us get settled in. She had a bottle of water for us and also a lovely Sicilian wine, both were very much appreciated. She has decorated in a Sicilian beach theme that is very welcoming and clean. We will be booking this apartment again 🌸 The busses drop off at the top of the hill so you have lots of groups passing by throughout the day. It’s not that big of a deal it’s just something to be aware of
- Jo (10/5): Cefalu is a great town and Scinniamare is an amazing spot. - The hosts went above and beyond to meet us and accompany us to the car park. We arrived in 2 groups at different times and they were very accommodating. The apartment is a good size and the little balcony overlooking the sea is simply fantastic! Nothing at all
- Mj (9/5): Superb - Very close to the city centre eland beach. Seaside location, dramatical scenery below the Roca di Cefalù.
Apartment is spotlessly clean
- Margaret (10/5): Thoroughly enjoyed our short stay .Its a very beautiful location - This place is a hidden gem . Uninterrupted views of the sea and a few minutes walk to the old town . More importantly the host and her family went out of their way when one of our party had to visit hospital during our short stay . They were so kind and so helpful and this was of great help to us when we didn’t speak Italian . I have nothing negative to say about this apartment and the beautiful host !
- Adam (10/5): Exceptional -
- Diane (9/5): lovely comfortable apartment with a splendid view of the water. - Lovely property on the waterfront with an easy stroll into town. Very quiet and comfortable beds.
- Cairns (10/5): Would love to return - perfect location for a relaxing break - The apartment was sparkling clean, spacious and extremely well equipped. I would say that the photos don't do it justice....it is even nicer in reality! The owners were very friendly and accommodating. They even provided us with beach towels as a special request, as we were travelling light. They also gave us some excellent nearby restaurant recommendations. The complementary bottle of prosecco and coffee capsules were a lovely gesture too.
The location was perfect....just a ten minute stroll into town. Cefalu was beautiful...especially in Oct. We had temperatures of 25-28 degrees and it wasn't too crowded. N/A
- Tom (10/5): Exceptional - Fantastic. Owners very friendly and helpful - they gave us a private parking nearby. Also a bottle of wine and water to get started. This place is very quiet in restricted zone for few cars and at same time within 5 minutes walk to the center. Highly recommended !
- Angelina (9/5): Well set up and lovely apartment, located close to the old town, across the road from the sea. - The bed was too soft
- Aleksandra (10/5): Great Apartment near the city center! - Very clean! You can hear a bit of noise from the street in the morning but it did not bother us much (during the night it was quiet). Parking is a bit further (near the harbor) but still managable. The location is great - very close to the center. Amazing view. Overall we had a good stay.
- Anda (10/5): Exceptional -
- Joanne (9/5): Lovely stay would highly recommend - Brand new, nicely decorated, beautiful sea view in a quiet area of Cefalù yet close walking distance to the center of town and the beaches. The owners were so kind and helpful. Nothing
