The Area

Brezza di Mare is in the old centre of Cefalù with its Norman Cathedral commissioned by Roger II, shops, restaurants and long sandy beach. Its central position on the Tyrrhenian coast makes for easy day trips to Palermo (58km), Santo Stefano (35km), Solunto (55km). Cefalù is nestled beneath the Madonie Mountains, with peaks up to nearly 2,000m and a wealth of small villages with a history almost as long as that of Sicily.

Cefalù is on the main train line linking Palermo with Messina, and from mid-June to mid-September is connected with the Aeolian Islands by a daily hydrofoil service.

Everything at Brezza di Mare was superb!

Mrs June Sandbach, United Kingdom July 2018

Brezza di Mare was absolutely stunning. The location, views, amenities, and overall beauty of everything was more than we could have hoped for. We travel a lot, and always debate between luxury hotels and private property rentals, and with Thinking Traveller we really felt like we had the best of both worlds. It was our first trip with our newborn baby, and so having staff that we could reach out to when needed made all the difference for us. We wanted to stay forever. Now we just have to figure out the next Thinking Traveller villa destination!

Mr Daniel Appleby, Canada June 2018

Brezza di Mare is a great property. Just perfect for us.

CB, United Kingdom April 2018

You are an amazing company! You are the best! Will definitely book again! Thank you.

Mrs Amanda Hodges, United Kingdom February 2018
