Odlično mjesto i rado bi se vratili.
Pros:

Savršeno mjesto, do plaže treba prošetati 10 min al je odlična s besplatnim ležalkama i suncobranima.
Alimacija za pohvaliti.

Rilassamento in Resort
Pros:

Del resort mi è piaciuto tutto, cibo ottimo e abbondante, personale disponibile e cordiale, la struttura e accogliente, la piscina e abbastanza grande e curata.

Cons:

Purtroppo le due discese per l'accesso al mare non sono agevoli soprattutto per persone anziane, una di esse è servita da una navetta piccolina, ma da come vedo la struttura non penso che possano migliorare gli accessi verso il mare. Per ottimizzare le nostre discese senza sole andavamo al mare nel pomeriggio e tutto era più sostenibile.

Uitermate teleurstellend
Pros:

Niks, alles wat verschrikkelijk!

Cons:

Smerig ontbijt, ontbijt werd te vroeg weggehaald en weinig keus, kotsende gasten tijdens het ontbijt, zwembad gesloten op het warmste van de dag, stroomuitval, geen wifi, harde matrassen en gehorige kamers.

Waar we hadden verwacht dat dit 1 van de beste accomodaties was tijdens onze reis, was dit een nachtmerrie, blij toen we eindelijk konden uitchecken!

Ottimo rapporto tra qualità e prezzo
Pros:

La struttura era vicinissima al mare e pur restando fuori dal centro di Cefalù, con la macchina è stata vicinissima da raggiungere.

Cons:

Il silenzio, la vicinanza al mare e la disponibilità del personale.

Pros:

We were disappointed with our stay at this resort.

Our original room was extremely dark, absolutely tiny and located a long way from the main facilities. When we asked to move, we were told we could but only if we paid extra. The second room was better but it still had several issues. There was no bin in the kitchen area, the room had a cooker that we were specifically told we were not allowed to use, the shower was broken, and there was no cutlery or crockery provided.

The resort also has some unusual rules that we found inconvenient. The swimming pool closes between 1pm and 3pm every day, swimming hats are compulsory and guests are not allowed to choose where they sit at breakfast.

The housekeeping service was inconsistent. Although the maid visited every day, she never once removed the rubbish we had collected in a bin bag because there was no actual bin in the room. The one time she did take something away, it was a container holding our dirty laundry ready to take home. As a result, my husband, a very kind porter and I found ourselves searching through the hotel bins at 10pm trying to recover our clothes.

The area itself is beautiful and Cefalù is well worth visiting but you really need a car if you stay at this resort. Overall, the property feels dated and is in need of some TLC and refurbishment. Unfortunately, the photographs on the website give a much better impression than the reality.

We loved Cefalù and would definitely return but we would not choose to stay at this resort again.

Pros:

Private access to beach and the campsite was very clean. Staff were very friendly.

Cons:

It was a distance to the town, bus ran at inconvenient times during the day. Last bus in the evening was 6pm so would have to get taxi home from dinner
