THE GEM OF BYBLOS

Byblos is thought to be the "oldest of all cities" as it has been continuously inhabited for over 7,000 years; the God El had founded it at the beginning of time and to the end of its history, it remained the religious capital of Phoenicia. Byblos today is a charming and laid-back village on the Mediterranean coast and a UNESCO world heri

Byblos is thought to be the "oldest of all cities" as it has been continuously inhabited for over 7,000 years; the God El had founded it at the beginning of time and to the end of its history, it remained the religious capital of Phoenicia. Byblos today is a charming and laid-back village on the Mediterranean coast and a UNESCO world heritage site. 


Located within the heart of Byblos old Souks, Beit Faris wa Lucia (Faris & Lucia's Home) is a gem of a guesthouse! The gorgeous property boasts over two-thousand years of history: its foundations form part of the Crusader tower and the ceiling of its ground floor has stone arches dating back to the first century. The property was recently renovated and opened its doors as a guesthouse to the world!


Enjoy the magnificent rooftop view over the Mediterranean Sea and the ancient Citadel of Byblos or rest easy within the peaceful garden amongst the flowers and fruit trees.
