There isn't really anything not to like about this place.
I would return without a hesitation, and we were sad to leave when we had to. One couple we met had been returning for nine years they love it so much, which says a lot.

We’ve traveled Sicily for 2 weeks staying in multiple properties & this was definitely my favorite. Such a great location, just outside of the hustle & bustle. The property was clean & the staff were all wonderful. I would definitely stay here again.

Blue Bay is in a fantastic location, with access to a very nice private beach with calm, beautiful water full of fish and sea life. The hotel gives you free access to kayaks and paddleboats (with slides), which the kids loved. There's also drinks, snacks, and beach towels to rent near the water. The staff are also very nice and helpful.
The rooms are a bit bare bones, with nothing really in the way of decoration or styling. The water in the bathrooms strangely cannot get cold (it's always warm to hot) and smells a bit sulfuric.
That being said, I would stay there again because the beach is so nice and convenient, and my kids loved it.

Fabio and the entire staff were so wonderful! The hotel is spectacular with what I think is the best view in Cefalu.Private Beach is gorgeous. 100% coming back here.
Ps. The walk into town is 15-20 minutes and there is also a bus that stops right near the hotel that takes you all around town for 1.20€

Fantastic accommodation. The bay is beautiful, so peaceful. The water is really clear. There are kayaks, pedalos, masks and snorkels to use for free. You can walk to Cefalu main centre in 15-20mins. Blue Bay will arrange taxis if you need. I forgot about the cafe, we went for breakfast every day, good choice, omelette, yoghurt and fruit, pastries. Lovely lunches too. They large to your room and you pay when you leave. Definitely recommend.
