Though Cefalu is considered one of Italy’s finest resort towns, there’s more to do than just swim and sunbathe. The seaside spot, poised on Sicily northeastern coast, is equally celebrated for its Norman cathedral, medieval old town, archaeology museum, and seafood-heavy fare.

In Cefalù, a short walk from the sea and the historic centre, the Cathedral and the Medieval Washing Place, the perfect base to explore the Madonie Park and the Tyrrhenian coast of Sicily, stands Casa Curcio, gem of the 60s architecture, inspired by Le Corbusier of the 30s. On the ground floor, overlooking a scented and secluded garden, open five rooms as coloured as the five petals of a wonderful multicoloured flower: the B&B Lirma, created with love and determination by the lady of the house. Ideal, elegant and discreet , all rooms individually decorated and furnished, assure a high standard of comfort and charm , elegance, independence and peace.
At B&B Lirma you get the best of both sides of Cefalu. You are staying in a family home in a residential area yet close to the old town of Cefalu. Very close to the beach and the promenade. A 10 minute walk to many many lovely restaurants. The bedrooms are very nicely furnished and bathrooms very well fitted out. Would recommend for families, couples, singles etc. finally a mention for the delicious breakfasts including a different homemade cake every day!

Very clean, quiet, and comfortable B&B, wonderful breakfast. Steps from central piazza. Kind and helpful hostess who went above and beyond to make our stay memorable. Dinner recommendations were great. If stairs are a problem this is not your B&B.

Stayed here just one night but could have stayed longer. Beautiful setting with rooms and outdoor terraces facing the sea. Breakfast served on your private terrace and was delicious and extensive. The only downside for us was minor and that is that it was a good 20 minute walk on a busy road to town. We chose to drive and found parking easily

Bohemien B&B is located in Cefalu old town, on the first floor of a building built in the early 20's. In this wonderful town, our guests can experience the perfect holiday, enjoying the sea and culture, the traditions and the nightlife. Bohemien is located in a central position, at the foot of the stunning Rocca of Cefalu, just a few steps from the pedestrian area of the old town and a few minutes walk from the main beach and the best restaurants and shops in town. The accommodation has 5 rooms equipped with all comforts. A major renovation was made in early 2022, so the reviews previous to that date may refer to rooms and services that are not the same with the ones offered from April 2022, date of the reopening.
I have only words of perfection for this b&b. We have been 7 times to cefalu and 7 times to the Bohemien. Mari works exceptionally hard to make your stay easy and the Warhol room is idyllic. You can sit at the veranda and watch the world go by. The rooms are spotless, and fresh and modern. The breakfast is out of this world. If it’s a peaceful b&b you are after, this it. When this pandemic is over and we revisit cefalu, of course we will stay at Bohemien again.

We had a good room with a large balcony and sea view. The whole place was very clean and we had a good breakfast. The owners are very helpful - Salvatore speaks excellent English and gave us lots of good information about the area and restaurants. The short drive up the access road is steep, but not a problem in first gear! You are a short walk from the town and its restaurants.

We stayed a couple of nights here and rather wished it could have been longer. Huge comfortable bed in a huge room. Fixtures and fittings, with the exception of the bed antique. A really lovely combination of old and new. The parking is a little way away but we did it in 5 rather than 15 minutes, even with bags. Nice staff and decent breakfast complete the picture.

The B&B Lumachella offers its guests the chance to enjoy the peace of its garden without sacrificing the comforts offered by the town: beach (at a 100 m distance), historical centre, railway station, travel agency, bars, shops, pharmacy, newsagent, car rental, supermarket, are in fact all the services within a few meters from the villa. Completely restored in 2010, the B&B includes three double rooms overlooking the garden, which is equipped with tables, chairs, deck chairs, umbrellas, and hammock, where you can have breakfast under the shade of palms and lemon trees, oranges and tangerines, and you can relax enjoying the beautiful nature. Children under 3 years stay free in a baby cot (so you don't have to include them in guests count).
Lovely venue. The location was perfect, just outside of the old town which was a very easy walk from there. The hosts were so friendly and inviting. The best breakfast we had in Sicily by far. Also there is free parking which is amazing in this area . I would definitely stay here again and for longer next time!!!
