10/10 Exceptional

We very much enjoyed our stay. The hotel is right across the street from the beach. The parking is right next door and for the hotel only which was very convenient. The staff were always kind and helpful. The breakfast is included and we enjoyed it very much. The location is toward the end of the busy area of Cefalù so it’s close enough while also being quiet and less crowded. We would definitely stay there again.

6/10 Good

Hotel is 5 minutes from old town and opposite the beach. Rooms and bathrooms are spacious and clean with plenty of storage. Breakfast a mix of continental and cooked with a good selection. Hotel is very quiet and has only about 12 rooms. Catch a taxi if arriving at train station its a steep dowhill walk to the hotel. The hotel has no pool so be sure to ask for voucher and towels to use at beach club, Club Maljk a short walk away. It has sunloungers (no umbrellas at the pool) Loungers on the beach with umbrellas but limited access to swim from the beach area. All in all this is a nice enough Hotel but we felt it was a bit dated and over priced. Staff are friendly and helpful though.

Great stay

The staff are excellent, very helpful and friendly. Breakfast was great with a variety of different foods to choose from. My only complaint I have is the uncomfortable bed, the mattress is extremely hard. I will definitely recommend staying here.

I really loved staying here. Sarah at the front desk was so kind and helpful and the location was amazing. The room was large and super clean. The free lido across the street was fabulous. My only negative was that on Friday night the club nearby was so loud that even with all the windows shut, I could not sleep until they shut down which was past 1 in the morning.

The woman who waters the garden is the kindest, most beautiful soul. Seeing her smile everyday just made that day. Nice location too..

Very nice family run hotel in a great location. Close for walking to old town in 15 minutes. We had a large room with private balcony and partial ocean view. Easy to park in their large lot. You get free beach chairs and towels included at a very nice beach across the street and use of the swimming pool at a neighboring hotel. The breakfast buffet was wonderful with all sorts of options including three kinds of eggs, cereals, yogurts, cheeses, meats, juices, croissants, etc, etc A great place for us.

Great location. Air conditioning in our room wasn’t working well and the coolest the room got was 82F. Website advertises pool but we didn’t see one and when asked staff said it was closed.

I want to point out: there are no swimming pool nor hot tub. It was important for me. On another hand, the location is perfect. Short walk from the train station. Mostly, flat. Big grocery store within 600 metras. You can have your breakfast on a terrace, looking on a blue water of the sea. Breakfast very fulfilling.
Verified review

2/10 Poor

Loud music in the bar opposite. The staff at the hotel were great as is the hotel. However, if you want to sleep before 2 am, forget it. So annoyed with this and the incessant drum beat club music that penetrates the hotel room that we were in. Wont be going baçk. There is no pool in the hotel although there is free access to a Lido 100 metres away.

Well located hotel, near the beach where you have free access to chairs and parasols. Swimming pool by the sea a five-minute walk away. Bord walk to get to the very beautiful old town. Very good breakfast with freshly squeezed orange juice. Basic room, very narrow bed and mattress too firm. Smashed patio chairs! suggestion: Offer a free bottle of water

6/10 Good

Excellent location for beach and Cefalu old town - breakfast good, but not much bacon and egg- had to ask for it to trooped up a lot. A noisy club outside and next door. Music DJ until 3am every night and no handle on outside of door to balcony a problem. Roller blinds good, but no curtains and just a voile and shutters was a little inconvenient. Good location and facilities, clean and tidy Room key a little awkward as took a while to work!
