This property does not deserve the reviews it has. Overall it was just OK. It is very far from the center of town (45 min walk, relatively dangerous, had to arrange our own transportation). The breakfast was not good—the coffee had a sulfur taste, with an aftertaste like cigarette water; it was undrinkable. The pastries were stale, and the hard boiled eggs were undercooked. The staff would charge extra for every little thing (5 euros to rent a towel at the beach, etc). The room felt like a hostel (just a sheet, no comforter, relatively uncomfortable spring bed, cheap pillows). The one redeeming thing was the paddle boat, which you can take out to the sea for no extra charge. The views are stunning, and it’s great for a swim. But overall accommodations left much to be desired.

Charming Stay with Stunning Views in Cefalù We recently stayed at this hotel just outside the heart of Cefalù and had a lovely experience overall. One of the highlights was the breakfast — a delicious spread of homemade sweet treats, fresh fruit, cereals, and a good selection of savoury items. Everything was beautifully presented and clearly made with care. The location boasts a beautiful beach, though it's worth noting that water shoes are essential due to the rocky shoreline. The views from the resort are absolutely stunning — a true Sicilian postcard scene. Convenient parking was available on-site, which made getting around much easier, especially since the hotel is a good 30-minute walk from the old town. Having a car was definitely a plus, though we did find paid parking fairly easily within Cefalù itself. The accommodation itself is a bit dated and could benefit from a refresh, but it was clean, comfortable, and perfectly adequate for our needs. Daily cleaning service was provided, which kept things tidy throughout our stay. A word of advice: pack your stamina! Our room was located on the 5th floor, and with no lift, it meant climbing a lot of steep stairs each day. If you enjoy a bit of a workout or don't mind the extra steps, it's manageable — but something to be aware of. Overall, it’s a peaceful and scenic place to stay, ideal for travelers looking for a quiet retreat with great views, good food, and access to the sea — just be ready for the stairs and poor internet

This property was HEAVEN!!! It's a family run hotel so you know they were exceptional. EVERYONE was so kind and accomodating. Rosano, Fabio, Jovani, Oscar, Philip (hope I got that right) were great fun and helped us navigate around town! Housekeeping was the SWEETEST. The beach was cleaned nightly and they have little boats to take out and shoes to wear for walking over rocks. The views were STUNNING and the sea was MAGICAL! Breakfast was perfect and you can order lunch on the beach which was SOOOO YUMMY. Also, 24/7 service with coctails. We never wanted to leave to be honest! Note to Americans: Keep your wild children calm and respectful or leave them home and be sure to tip the staff, esp. housekeeping :).

Private beach. Awesome sunset. All rooms have ocean views with terrace. Complimentary use of sun lounges with umbrellas and paddle boats and canoes. Wonderful start to the day with breakfast with freshly baked bread and pastries. Great coffee. Fruit and yogurts and cereals and antipasto. Town centre is a leisurely 20 to 30min stroll.

Beautiful views, can venture to walk to town. Secure parking. Rocky beach, but they set some sand bags to walk into water. Pedal boat and kayak also free to use. The beach on other side is more stunning, small public section and mostly for another hotel. This hotel did not have laundry, as advertised. Lite breakfast buffet (pastries, fruit, coffee). We really enjoyed the town of Cefalu!

Wonderful experience at Blue Bay. We enjoyed having a private beach and the free breakfast. Loved having the water shoes available to use in water. It was nice to be away from the city centre but not too far away to be able to walk (approx. 30 mins). The staff were wonderful and provided assistance whenever. We would come back again!

This place is on the edge of a cliff. You have to walk 5 flights to the beach which is covered in rocks and boulders. To get to your car or the beach was a massive amount of stairs. Be prepard to hike up and down stairs. The view is beautiful.
