About this property

Panoramic villa with private swimming pool

We live in the house when we do not receive reservations and this gives it an unfailing family warmth.
 Furnished with some furniture of our grandparents, but with 'modern' beds and in addition a comfortable garden set, (deck chairs, armchairs, dining tables, indoors and outdoors).
Casa MARE CELESTE is an ancient stone farmhouse completely renovated and equipped with a wooden porch.
It rises 350 m. high on the beautiful sea of ​​Cefalù and on a small beach (see attached photo) which is 2 km away with 10 minutes away and for this you need a car.
This beautiful seascape certainly induces you to take a swim in true relaxation around the sea stacks.
The house is located on a plateau of 1800 square meters, with SWIMMING POOL in the center of the garden, 360 ° view. Sea and mountain views.
In total tranquility, the villa is surrounded by olive trees, far from railways and highways (which can be seen on the map but with different heights) distributed on two levels with 3 bedrooms (2 double and 1 quadruple) (the quadruple consists of 2 single beds and 1 double bed) for a total of 8 places
It has 02 WC bathrooms with shower (one blue on the ground floor, the other green on the first floor)
A living room where there is a relaxation area with sofas and satellite TV, WiFi internet. A large typical brick kitchen with Santo Stefano ceramics and equipped with dishwasher.
On one side of the panoramic garden there is a rustic barbecue and on the back of the house a comfortable (outdoor) shower with hot water.
The peculiarity of the Mare Cielo house is its optimal geographical position to reach the nearby city of CEFALU '(3 km) with its majestic Arab-Norman cathedral described by UNESCO.

A Gem in Cefalù: Our Stay at Francesco’s Haven
Our stay at Francesco's house in Cefalù was a highlight of our travels. As a host, Francesco was phenomenal, striking the perfect balance between attentiveness and allowing us our privacy. His house offered a quaint and cozy retreat, complete with the comforts of home yet a distinctly Sicilian charm.What made our experience unforgettable was the house's stunning view—unparalleled vistas of the sea that framed our mornings and evenings with natural splendor. The house, a perfect embodiment of coziness and beauty, paired with Francesco's hospitality, made our visit to Cefalù truly magnificent. This is not just a place to stay; it's a venue to experience the best of Sicily.

Haus mit Charme zum Wohlfühlen
Wir waren als Familie mit Kindern und Großeltern 5 Tage dort und wollten gar nicht abreisen. Toller Ausblick, Nähe zu Cefalu, ein sehr herzlicher Gastgeber. Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt.

Beautiful Hilltop Villa With Amazing Views
We were a party of 6 including my wife and I, our three adult kids, and my mother. We had a wonderful stay at this beautiful stone house perched over the town and coast of Cefalu. Francesco could not have been more gracious and responsive. He arranged for a chef who cooked us a lovely seafood dinner, he made recommendations and responded immediately to any questions. The property and gardens are amazing. But we were also quite content to stay in the house during a heavy rain day. The road that approaches the house is quite steep and a little tricky. We highly recommend this location.
