Villa Mazzaforno
A magnificent restoration has returned Sixties design flair to this white-washed villa with its wraparound terrace, bringing with it modern comforts
Villa Mazzoforno is an incredible seafront villa perched above a private beach just outside Cefalù, a delightful little harbour town on Sicily’s north coast, just under an hour from Palermo.
The main house sleeps eight in four double bedrooms. An immaculately restored Sixties design villa, it has a wraparound terrace on both the ground and first floors with interiors that sing with geometric patterns, mid-century furniture, Sicilian tiles and a fabulous combination of space and light. It is movie-set perfect, both inside and out, with views of and direct access to the Tyrrhenian Sea.
A house for all seasons, the warmer months will find guests drawn outside to the vast terrace with its ringside seat on the sea. The underfloor heating and fireplace offer cosiness and warmth in the cooler months while the view remains captivating all year round.
The property is just ten minutes by car from the wonderful town of Cefalù with its Norman cathedral and pretty harbour, and Palermo is less than an hour away. It's a showstopper of a villa with film-worthy looks and real-world comfort – the perfect place for those seeking an authentic Sicilian stay.
By renting Mazzaforno Grande, you will be able to secure the entire estate also including Le Cementine with its swimming pool.
