Villa Bordonaro is an apartment unique of its kind and represents the pearl you would not expect to find inside an historical center. Infact, despite being located in a little building on the "Via Bordonaro" (main street of the ancient part of Cefalù), it has many of the characteristics you would typically get in a luxury villa (except for parking): large and furnished outdoor space surrounded by a lovely courtyard, SPA with hot tub and Hammam (turkish bath), sought after finishes.
The apartment Villa Bordonaro features an hallway that on one side leads to a double bedroom with balcony, and on the other one to a wide and bright daily area from where you can reach the courtyard and the SPA. Inside the latter, besides the Hot Tub and the Hammam mentioned earlier, a bathroom with shower can be found. Next to the living room there are a spacious double bedroom with bathroom and shower and a fully furnished kitchen, through where you can get to another double bedroom and another bathroom with tub.
Bedrooms, kitchen and living room are all equipped with air conditioning units.
Please be aware that the Municipality of Cefalù requires a mandatory tourist tax of 2 euro/person per night, starting from 13 years old, for a maximum of 5 nights (in case of longer reservations the remaining nights will not be charged)

This place was awesome! We loved how it was centrally located in the shopping area of Cefalu. The property was beautiful and updated. Loved the spa area.
We loved our stay. The apartment is spacious and in a great location, within walking distance of heaps of great restaurants, shops and key places to visit.
We stayed during a heat wave so the air con in every room came very much in handy.
There is a substantial cleaning fee, and charge per person for towels, which we thought was a little over the top considering the floors weren’t overly clean and each room was only stocked with one roll of toilet paper. The glassware and fishes also required a rinse before use.
All in all though we would highly recommend this apartment.
Cefalù is our new favorite beach town, and a big reason we enjoyed it so much was this great flat. The location was perfect for exploring the old town, with restaurants, shops, and wine bars literally right outside the door.
The place was impeccably clean, peaceful, and beautifully furnished. There is a private outdoor courtyard which is perfect for an al fresco meal, a quiet glass of wine or peaceful morning coffee. The small balcony overlooking the street was another favorite coffee perch where one can watch the town slowly come alive each day.
The bathrooms are spacious, water pressure and temperature was great, and the kitchen was perfect for our needs. The bedrooms were quiet and well-suited to a good night’s sleep.
Our hosts were friendly, responsive, and gave us great tips about the area. I honestly can’t find anything negative about this property. Highly recommended.

I think that 3 stars over 5 for an house like this would at least need an explanation
