About the home

One of the most sought-after, desirable villas in the region, Splendida offers breathtaking, expansive views from its mountain-side vantage point, looking out across the dramatic Tyrrhenian coast, the vista stretches as far as the Aeolian Islands and the headland of Caronia, with Cefalù laid out like an idyllic toy village below you.

The villa itself lives up to the standards set by the stunning views, benefitting from a recent refurbishment and high-quality fittings and furnishings. The property is split into two houses, ideal for families holidaying together or large groups of friends looking for something a little bit extra-special. Whether you decide to take one, or both of the houses, exclusive use of the grounds and inviting outdoor heated pool is guaranteed.

The sun terrace and pool deck is furnished with sunbeds to recline on and simply drink in your surroundings – during the summer you can observe the sunrise and sunset from your vantage point, making every day spent in this enchanting place a day to remember. If you can ever tear yourself away from that wonderful view, the villa acts as the perfect base to explore the natural beauty of this remarkable place, placed as it is on the edge of the Madonie National Park – from beaches to towering mountains and everything in between.

The Sicily region

It's more than an island! Discover Sicily and discover the world. The world's first multicultural society, Sicily is Italy's (and Europe's) most historically cosmopolitan region, having been ruled by Asians, Africans and Europeans. Sicily is black and white and a million shades of grey. There's no other place on Earth like Sicily. Our island is a unique place full of art, archeology, history, folklore and breathtaking scenery. And, of course, great food. Sicily is almost a nation unto itself. The enchanting land where Archimedes taught and Saint Paul preached was a Greek colony, a Roman province, an Arab emirate and a Norman kingdom.

The Cefalu area

Cefalu is a charming, Medieval city perched on the Tyrrhenian coast. Blessed with white sandy beaches, narrow cobbled streets, an acclaimed museum (housing Antonello da Messina’s masterpiece, Portrait of an Unknown Man) , and an awe inspiring Romanesque cathedral, Cefalu is not to be missed. The stunning mosaics which adorn the city’s cathedral were completed in 1148 and are both the oldest Byzantine-Norman mosaics in Sicily as well as some of the finest in the world. The town was captured in the Oscar winning film, ’Cinema Paradiso’.
Cefalu is located within the boundaries of the Parco Delle Madonnie, a 40,000 hectare nature reserve containing splendid mountain landscapes, ancient villages and numerous hiking trails. The Park is a ‘botanic paradise’ possessing more than half of the 2600 species known to Sicily within its confines.

Cefalu is a perfect base for exploring the island’s most important sites, such as Agrigento’s Valley of the Temples, Syracuse and Monreal’s famed cathedral. Lying 80 km East of Palermo, with abundant train and bus service between the two cities, Cefalu is a convenient, historic and relaxing vacation destination for the discriminating international traveller.
