We stayed here 10 years ago on a very romantic break, and returning was no disappointment. The decor was the exact same, service was as friendly as ever and the vista of the bay and the beautiful town were just as we remembered. Not for those seeking great cuisine or luxurious surroundings. But perfect for rest and relaxation with a... More

The hotel is directly across the street from the beach, but it's a rocky beach. The nicer beach is about a 20 minute walk, which isn't bad unless you're schlepping little kids and all that they require. The hotel smelled a little funny, which I think can be attributed to their water. It smells and tastes terrible. The shower water... More

About a 20 minute easy walk to Old Town Cefalu and therefore less congested and easy parking. Large clean rooms with comfortable bed and balcony with ocean view. Good breakfast. Bar and sitting area but no restaurant. Swimming pool was not open during February.

A nice hotel and a good location near the beach. After having dinner in the centre you had a healthy walk back to the hotel. The reception staff was friendly and helpful, the room was clean. The only complaint we had was the breakfast and specially the egg-and-bacon-table. Either there was only fried eggs or only bacon, in three mornings... More

The location was good, the pool excellent. The room was good but a bit faded and jaded. Breakfast was not very good, why is it not possible to provide fresh orange juice on a Mediterranean Island, and why oh why attempt bacon fried eggs and sausages!

We has a two-week holiday in this location, and it was worth all that money we payed for half-board holiday. The hotel is just on the sea front across the Lungomare, and only a few minutes' walk to the centre of Cefalu.Everything was clean, the furniture was basic, but again the room was clean, the staff were friendly and helpful....

We stayed for one week with my wife, in September last year, and we are coming back again this year in September for two weeks. The hotel offers more than any other hotel in Cefalu area. Private beach, sea view rooms, good food , large swimming pool and a very friendly personnel. Starting from Daniella at the reception to Pindaro... More

We had room 101, two single beds but with sea facing balcony and a side window opening to a view of the town. Beds are in a strange configuration to fit the room, it worked for us. The room was small, a little tired, cleanliness OK. Unlike some other reviewers we liked the buffet breakfast. A wide range from fruit... More
