"Charming Stay with Stunning Views in Cefalù
We recently stayed at this hotel just outside the heart of Cefalù and had a lovely experience overall. One of the highlights was the breakfast — a delicious spread of homemade sweet treats, fresh fruit, cereals, and a good selection of savoury items. Everything was beautifully presented and clearly made with care.
The location boasts a beautiful beach, though it's worth noting that water shoes are essential due to the rocky shoreline. The views from the resort are absolutely stunning — a true Sicilian postcard scene. Convenient parking was available on-site, which made getting around much easier, especially since the hotel is a good 30-minute walk from the old town. Having a car was definitely a plus, though we did find paid parking fairly easily within Cefalù itself. The accommodation itself is a bit dated and could benefit from a refresh, but it was clean, comfortable, and perfectly adequate for our needs. Daily cleaning service was provided, which kept things tidy throughout our stay. A word of advice: pack your stamina! Our room was located on the 5th floor, and with no lift, it meant climbing a lot of steep stairs each day. If you enjoy a bit of a workout or don't mind the extra steps, it's manageable — but something to be aware of.
Overall, it’s a peaceful and scenic place to stay, ideal for travelers looking for a quiet retreat with great views, good food, and access to the sea — just be ready for the stairs and poor internet"
