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.

An illustration of a guest book

Brezza di Mare has the most wonderful views of the sea, and is perfectly situated right in the heart of old Cefalù. Elegant, characterful furnishings; incredible sea views; easy access into the Medieval town; beautiful walks along the beach in the early morning; extraordinary cathedral. Would we return? Yes. This was our second visit to Brezza di Mare, and we want to go back again next year.

Annie M-J April 2025

Love! Our entire experience was perfect. Brezza di Mare has everything you need. It is full of character but extremely comfortable. Even though you are in the bustling historic center, you are a world away when you are in the apartment. We loved sitting on the balcony, overlooking the beautiful beach and crystal clear water. We swam every day. The sunsets were gorgeous. I cannot wait to book another vacation through The Thinking Traveller!

Incredible patio views of the beach! Excellent location in the heart of the action.

Michelle Stewart September 2023

Brezza di Mare is a great villa in a great town. What stood out was the view and the balcony. The Local Specialist team was very helpful with restaurant booking and other info and advice needed.

Verified guest, September 2024

Brezza di Mare was a beautiful apartment with an incredible view, perched directly above the sea. The waves were like music playing the entire vacation. We would return.
