We had a suite at this hotel for six nights at the end of October. It is in a great quiet location, but on the sea front, close to shops and restaurants with a short walk into the old town. Close the beach, and with lovely weather, it was a great week. We booked at short notice on a recommendation... more

Spent one night at the Villa Gaia... beautifully located on the Beach front... had a side on view of sea, with a balcony, that gave a beautiful view of the sea. Thee room was very clean, with extremely modern bathroom. The small hotel, with I believe 12 rooms, is very well managed , with friendly staff, who spoke good English... more

Stayed one night in a luxurious, high-tech Villa Gaia room with small balcony with sea view. Fine location -- quarter-mile stroll along beach walk to old town center. Parking not provided, but free on the street, and plenty of spaces available (at least in October). No point to drive in Cefalu, as you can walk everywhere. Very pretty and comfortable... more

We stayed here for three nights on our recent tour of Sicily. The hotel is near the beach and within walking distance of the town. Our room was large and the bed comfortable (though not the pillows!). The bathroom was also large and had a state-of-the-art shower. The air-conditioning was effective and quiet. There was some signs that maintenance was... more

Stayed here for two nights. Room clean, with a small balcony facing the sea. Nicely stocked and reasonably priced mini-bar. Lovely. Parking not provided, but could park for free on the street, and there were plenty of spaces available. Really do not need to drive in Cefalu, as you can walk pretty much everywhere. Staff was efficient. Hotel has what... more

Stayed here for a few nights the first week of October. Hotel is easy to find and has it's own private and secure parking a block down the street. This is free for guests and a very nice surprise. The room was clean and a mixture of old and new. For instance very high tech window shutters with one touch... more

Thanks trip Advisor - again. We wanted a restful beachy holiday with some culture nearby. I think this would all have been realised if only we hadn't caught the worst week in the Med - cloudy skies, plentiful rain, howling gale at one point, & a dramatic 12 hour electric storm!! (But temperature always warm) The first & the last... more

This hotel was easy to find as it's right on the beach-front, and handily has a place to park the car. The rooms are spacious, but sadly the whole hotel feels quite dated, which is disappointing given the price. Indeed it was the most expensive place we stayed in Sicily and probably came bottom of the pile in terms of... more

Some very grumpy and unhelpful staff especially the guy who "served" at breakfast. Quality of food poor considering the rate for this hotel was 160 Euro per night for B&B! Only positive is its location facing the beach. more

The good: - Brilliant location for the beach and a short walk to the lovely old town - Free parking nearby - Free entry to the lido, with the usual sun loungers and umberella - Two excellent restaurant recommendations from people on the front desk: Kentia and il Portcciolo (not the Pizzeria, the other one) The bad - A smallish... more
