Scirocco is a B and B like a B and B used to be. Not merely a place to sleep and grab something to eat. No, no, Nicole is the ultimate host. This B and B is a place where you sit with Nicole and other guests over a glass of wine in the evening and chat. This is a B and B where breakfast is served to all guests on the same long table, on the amazing roof terrace and you don't know what you enjoy more, the food (God bless Nicole's mother, what fantastic cakes -- I personally loved the orange one), the company ( we met most interesting people, our age, 60+, and much younger) or the view.|| Ah, the view, I should have started with the view. Scirocco's roof is a huge terrace above all the roofs of Cefalu's historic part and just 400 meters from the massive rock, and 300 meters from the sea. So wherever you look you just go "Wow" , or "I don't believe it", until you relax, sit down with you beer and enjoy the sunset.||And how are the rooms? Very clean, rather big (OK, European standards) very comfortable, double glazing ( below is a pedestrian street, so no cars, but two cafes, so you do want to shut the window, though to be fair, it was not disturbing when we left it open, as we were on the third flour, or was it fourth?,). The bed was very comfortable and the view from the window was beautiful.||The only downside is that you have to climb the stairs to this BB. But come-on, after so many cups of espresso and all the calories which you have gained in one of Cefalu's restaurants (we are vegetarians so we highly recommend Le Chat Noir) , it is a good idea to climb those stairs. ||One of the photos I added is taken from the Rocca , the massive rock east of Cefalu, which you can climb. I marked the BB's roof.||If you like walking we highly recommend the mountains to the south. Allow yourself two days in these mountains, literary twenty minutes drive from the BB.||Nicole, thank you so much. We shall certainly come again. ||Avner, Jerusalem.
