Less than a half hour from Cefalù, this villa boasts sensational views of the Tyrrhenian Sea. There's no better spot to enjoy them than the panoramic infinity pool. It may require a few steps to reach, but it's perfect for sunbathing, splashing, and swooning over the scenery. Inside, the design isn't the most modern, but the open-plan living area and trio of bedrooms ensure enough space for everyone. Plus, the terrace provides even more room for group gatherings. Ready to explore? While the drive to Cefalù is worth it, Finale di Pollina's rocky beaches and coves are closer to home if you'd rather stay local.

Home truths

    Although this is a single-level home, there are steps in the garden. The swimming pool is located on a terrace below the villa. It's about 10 metres away and requires climbing down a flight of roughly fifteen steps.

    If you're travelling with little ones, your host can provide a free cot and high chair on request.

    The single beds may be pushed together to form a double.

    The pool is only available to use between the last Saturday in April and the first Saturday in November.

    Due to the remote location, we highly suggest hiring a car to make the most out of your stay. There's private parking here, with a recharge station for battery-driven cars.

    The living area is a little sparse. It may not suit everyone's taste.
