Amazing hotel that exceeded our expectations on every level. We stayed 3 nights in one of the VIP rooms. Everyone at the hotel was more than lovely to interact with. The hotel is amazing with an enormous pool and ocean access. We wanted to spend time at the pool but couldn't pull ourselves away from the ocean. Tons of snorkeling and just enjoyment. The food was excellent. Breakfast was so great (the cappuccino was so good my wife had two with each breakfast). We loved the paninis and had dinner at the hotel twice. The service and food were amazing. We just loved the views and sound of the sea against the rocks. The rooms have a lot of character which makes them charming. Definitely plan to return here and spend more time. I don't get some of the older reviews that were less than positive. Our experience was nothing like some of the negative comments

We both absolutely loved this beautiful hotel. We booked directly with the hotel on their website. They are very helpful with booking. We had a double room with a sea view looking out across the bay. The view from the balcony was gorgeous. The staff are all helpful and smiley making you feel really looked after. The atmosphere is friendly and relaxed with a mix of couples older families and a few families with younger children. There is a private swimming terrace ( rather than beach) with crystal clear water , interesting rocks to swim round and lots of fish. We took our own snorkels. We did the night time guided snorkel ( paid) to see the bioluminescence in the water. The restaurant has lovely food which seems no more expensive than the average restaurant in Cefalù town and great vegan /gluten free options. Extensive drinks menu. Breakfast deserves a review all its own. Cereals, local spreads/jams, three types of fruit salad, chia pudding, fresh yogurt, selection of seeds , pancakes, freshly made omelettes to order, about 6 different types of little croissant cooked fresh for breakfast, bread, cheeses, charcuterie, salads, a machine that squeezed a fresh orange into a glass and the best best coffee. Breakfast can be on the lovely terrace overlooking the sea or in the restaurant. Dinner similarly. There is usually some music in the bar in the evening with complimentary snacks with your drink. The swimming pools are really clean and warm too. We walked into town every day but really the best food was in the hotel. I did two free yoga sessions too which were also excellent. More than we usually spend on a hotel but worth every penny.

Enchanting place, the family room we had with a sea view was spacious, roomy, and had a spectacular view. The only downside is the very old furniture. The cleanliness was not excellent. On the other hand, the staff is super efficient and kind. Top-notch breakfast, taken care of down to the smallest details. It is a real pleasure to stay there; they should just make a few small improvements to the rooms, but otherwise everything is super enchanting and it was truly a pleasure to return to the property and be able to enjoy that total relaxation while being on that splendid huge terrace drinking something and enjoying the sound of the sea. Super experience, definitely to be repeated, recommended to everyone
