Located in the public square of the Duomo, the medieval Palace Maria of Cefalu was probably constructed during the time of King Ruggero II in 1139. The City of Cefalu is internationally renowned and attracts tourists from all over the world. In addition to the damous Duomo and many other historic buildings, Cefalu has a fine sandy beach, with a wonderful reef bathed in limpid waters. Just a few minutes walk from the sea, the Palace Maria has been totally renovated to the highest standards. Individual apartments are fitted with period furniture and each has air conditioning, independent heating and a large sun terrace overlooking the Duomo, the imposing -Rocca- or the sea from which the Aeolian Islands emerge. Serving traditional Sicilian food, and with a formidable wine celler,the restaurant promises visitors a truly gastronomic experience.
From Cefalu the city of Palermo, rich in history and culture, is within easy reach and the Aeolian Islands can be visited via daily hydrofoil connections. The National Park of the Madonie is a true paradise for nature lovers and, for sporting enthusiasts, horse riding, tennis and golf are all within easy reach.
