Beachfront vacation rentals in Cefalù

I wish I could give 10 ⭐️! Lory was exceptional! She picked us up at the bus stop in Palermo and brought us to the house. She lives in another unit so she was always available for questions and just to say hello. The home was perfect for us and our little dog. Lory gave us recommendations for shopping and restaurants. I wanted to buy special Sicilian pasta to bring home and Lory actually went out and bought it for me. She obviously takes pride in her work and home. We would stay there again when we come to Mondello. I highly recommend this home and location. Thank you for a wonderful vacation.

Our stay in Gabriele's house went perfectly, the house is very well-equipped, clean and welcoming. Our host was particularly responsive to all our questions, responding precisely within a very short time! The kids were able to enjoy the outdoors, and even make a delicious lemonade with local produce. The house is very close to small beaches, a convenience store is located nearby. In short, nothing to say about this stay, we thank Gabriele.

Francesco and his wife were adorable, very welcoming and discreet. The accommodation is located in a perfect location on the beautiful Mondello beach. Everything is accessible on foot or by bus, with Palermo 15 minutes away. Francesco and his wife gave us a guided tour of the city. We warmly recommend this listing!

An amazing getaway! A pristine, rustic, and cozy sicilian home nestled in a citrus and olive orchard with a 200 meter walk to the beach. Quiet, except for the birds and the occasional car. Full kitchen to cook what you learned at at a local cooking class and a great family run restaruant an few minutes walk away. Close to main roads for adventures out and a train station about a kilometer away if you prefer. The host was friendly and helpful with recomendations and understanding Sicily if it is your first time. He spoke English very well and a variety of other languages. This was a great location to live and breathe Sicillian culture and to have a quiet place to rest. Overall an amazing countryside stay that was still close to Cefalu and Palermo. Highly recommended!

Maria was really communicative and came to meet us at the house, where,we swapped numbers in case either of us needed to reach the other. The house was clean and tidy, with just a few steps down to the beach. We had our own private terrace and use of the shared terrace, just a couple of steps down. The house,was just a short walk to the village, where there are a few restaurants and just another 5 minutes to Porticello where there are more restaurants. It's very quiet there, so if that's what you're looking for, you won't be disappointed. All in all, a lovely 8 days at Maria's house and thanks for being a great host!

Diego and his son, Damiano are great hosts. We were greeted with a welcome pack on arrival, full of local delicacies. Their home is amazing, well equipped, with comfortable beds and a great garden. The sea is about 300 meters away, just a short walk. Everything was perfect, thank you very much!

Very nice flat, conveniently located, near the beach. Benedetto was very welcoming and helpful to answer a few questions about the area. The flat is lovely and the patio outside a very pretty little corner. I highly recommend.

I really enjoyed our stay and appreciated the host’s kindness in getting us settled. The location was peaceful and private, and walking on the private beach at night was serene. We loved the gas stovetop for last‑minute meals and the shower’s light and radio. The indoor space was a bit tight, but the patio and outdoor areas made up for it. A few things caught us off guard: the pool is seasonal, chairs shown on the beach weren’t there, and some utensils were a bit dirty. We also found ants on the table, which upset my girlfriend, and the TVs were smaller than expected. The biggest concern was the road to the beach—the potholes made us nervous about driving. Overall, it’s a lovely spot. With a few clarifications and minor updates, it could be an even more fantastic getaway. Thank you for hosting us!

We (family with 2 children 1.5 and 3.5) felt right at home. Zaira has really thought of everything. From the stroller, cot and drinking water in the fridge, everything is available. When we had a power outage, she responded within 1 minute and showed us the solution and we had light again immediately. The house, garden and pool were very clean and we could even bathe in the heated water. The kids had extremely fun and didn't want to leave. To explore the area you need a car and you can be in Palermo in about 30 minutes and at the airport in 10 minutes. Grazie di tutto Zaira e arrivederci!

great stay!! definitely recommend :)

Very much enjoyed staying at Salvatore’s house. Everything was as described and looked just like the photos. Pristinely clean and well accommodated, it had everything we needed. The outdoor space in particular was very special and the pool was pristine.

We’ve travelled a bit and stayed in over 30 AirBNBs across multiple countries and continents. Marco’s place is definitely in the top two of all the places we have stayed in. The house is brilliantly built by Marco’s dad, Antonio, who was on hand to meet us and help us if and when needed. We followed most of Marco’s excellent recommendations and had a wonderful week. It was great to be outside Cefalú in Sant Ambrogio, a quaint village, but with easy access to Cefalú and all the surrounding villages. The pool was fantastic and I swam every day but one. A truly great stay.

We had a few days in a very nice house. Alessio responded immediately if we had any questions and after a very windy and stormy night he came by to check everything.

Our stay at Lilli's house was just perfect....Lilli organized everything well...Directions... reception by Giovanni ....small provisions....communication also great with her....responds immediately....the house is a small gem and the garden with the many exotic trees, the view of the mountains, the great pool, the tranquility, just wonderful. Giovanni is the good soul of the estate and always has a tip in stock...the surroundings are great, especially we liked the ornate Parrini. Thanks Lilli for the super hospitality! We had a wonderful time, and loved your pool. Hope to come back sometime....

The house is very comfortable and functional. Giovanni is hospitable and helpful. All the information is as described. Nice, fenced garden, good places for a dog. This was the best house we rented during our travels. The beach is close, a bit rocky, but you can walk a long way. Nearby Campofelice is a lovely village, from the terrace of the local restaurant there is a beautiful view of the sea and the tower. Easy to reach by train to Palermo and the airport. However, it is good to have a car, for convenience of shopping and local trips.

We had a wonderful week here. The hosts were very welcoming. We had a couple of minor issues at the start which were resolved immediately. Emanuele is a very attentive host. The house, garden and pool provide a wonderful space to relax and unwind. Going in April, the pool was pretty cold but the kids got on with it and the parents treated it as an invigorating refresher! With Cefalu just down the road, the mountains behind, and Palermo an easy day trip, there’s plenty to do if you want to.

We loved out stay with Rosellina. She went over the top to be sure we were taken care of including an unexpected lite dinner with a local bottle of wine due to our check in being late after a long day of travel. Her recommendations were very helpful and she was even able to provide us with a last minute taxi to the airport. Outstanding location and very relaxing environment. We did not see air conditioning but with the doors open, fans running and ocean breezes, we did not need it. This may be an issue during summer. The kitchen was excellent, as was the Wifi. We have stayed with many hosts over the years, but she was the best

We had a nice time in the house right on the sea. Everything was available to cook with 7 people. It was a bit difficult only with the loungers. Otherwise, everything was fine

The views, the attention, the charm! Everything about this place and our host was amazing 🤩

We stayed for four weeks in march. We had a great time, we fell in love with the place and their lovely dog Fiocco who is very sweet, also to children. Therèse and Viviana were very kind and helpful when we had questions. The house is situated in the middle of a large lemon grove and a daily stroll to the sea (it's a pebble beach) is greatly recommended. The nearby village San Stefano di Camastra is great for an ice cream and a coffee. We expected more hikes to be near, as it is located right next to Nebrodi but finding and reaching hotspots (hiking or otherwise) was ultimately harder than expected. We encountered this across Sicily though and is not related to the house itself. Our children loved to roam around the premises and find their own little adventures. All in all, we had a great relaxed stay and felt in tune with rural Sicily.

Very well located, terrace with sea view, 3-minute walk to the beautiful sandy beach. Spacious, bright apartment and very pleasant outdoor spaces. Very nice welcome from Cesare.

Villa Nàmali was a wonderful and clean place to spend the week. We just wish we had longer than a week! You can eat dinner with sea views, walk to the beach and a pizza place, and explore the region from this lovely home. The focus of this home is being outdoors with the larger kitchen outside and terrace. We traveled with children and this meant that they were playing outside almost the entire day (when we weren't sight seeing). Despite focusing on outdoors, the beds were very comfortable and the inside was very clean. The inside was so clean in fact, that I didn't even get dusty when fishing a dropped deck of cards out from under a bed. Marco was super accommodating and flexible with our check in, even on Easter Sunday. This seems to be one of the rare Airbnb places that is or was used by the host at one point and not just quickly slapped together for the tourism industry.

We had a great week. I recommend 100%. The house is exactly as described. A quiet place and close to everything at the same time, to visit Palermo or enjoy the surrounding nature. Thanks to Alessandro and his friend Mimmo for his hospitality.

This is one of the best Airbnb stays we have had! If you are looking at this listing and it is open on your dates, just book it now. The location is the best in all of Cefalu; the view is breathtaking. It's an easy walk to the train station and grocery store. Vincenzo is truly a super host and equipped the place for all of our needs. This is a full size penthouse condo, not just a couple of makeshift rooms like some places. It has a full kitchen and full size living room and bedroom. The bed was super cozy; be aware that it is in the old city and there can be some late night street noise but it didn't disturb us. Also be aware that it is several floors up a good set of wide stairs and no lift as it says in the listing. The kitchen is also down a short flight of stairs and it has a nice view too. The kitchen also has a nice complement of cooking utensils. We would love to give more than 5 stars to Vincenzo if possible. Thank you for a superior stay and also for the nice gifts!
