This is agreat hotel. We were allocated a sea view room at the front of the hotel which an amazing view. The room itself is ideal. -Spacious with a good shower and toiletteries in the bathroom which was immalculate. The bedroom had plenty of hanging space and a small fridge with a just few bottle bottles in. We stored drinks bought in the local supermarket (3 minutes away) in the fridge and this didn't cause any issues.
The staff were all friendly and helpful.
We had unfortunatley booked half board which was a huge mistake (we have done this before in Italy and been happy with this). The choice is very limited and the food poor quality. An earlier reviewer mentions the food is fresh but it clearly isn't as when we asked for slight variations these couldn't be accomadated. Breakfast is as you'd expect in Italy and quite acceptable.
Cefalu doesn't have the same access to sight seeing spots as Taormina does and if you like to be out and about a week here is long enough.
If however you prefer the beach or pool this hotel is ideal, both are modern and well kept with the sea warm even in June. If you do go in June please note that the roof toop terrace isn't open until early July, which was a great shame as the view up there are fantastic.
Cefalu itself is a lovley town and very atmospheric, with good restaurants - less touristy than Taormina.
A visit by train to Palermo is a must if you visit here, make sure you plan an itinery in advance as it's very hot and busy.
There aren't many review on this hotel or Cefalu, so if you have any questions please free to get in touch.
