Hotels near Spiaggia Caldura, Cefalu

Beautiful scenery, excellent service

It's a classic 3-star family owned italian hotel with a very friendly staff, there was all necessary for a 3-star hotel. The room is a standard for early 90th I think, not big, but very well kept and very clean. The location is Excellent! Next to Duomo and to the sea side restaurants. The roof terrace is splendid. Italian breakfast, but all fresh and tasty. Dining room is recently refurnished and nice! Advisable!

This hotel was perfect for us and our stay in Cefalu. We were there for 2 days. The location of the hotel is amazing, right in the old city area, next to the beach and a quick walk to all the attractions (notably the cathedral and the rock) as well as restaurants. Our room’s AC worked very well and we didn’t hear any outside noisy at night. Breakfast was good. PS The hotel has a deal with one of the beach clubs - despite the beach club being a bit of a walk (15 minutes from the hotel) - it was well worth it.

We spent three nights here with the wonderful Rosa. The room was very comfortable and well laid out with direct entry into the garden if we wanted to use it. Excellent air conditioning, very comfortable bed, good linens and well laid out bathroom. Top notch housekeeping - everything was immaculate. As others have mentioned, the breakfasts that Rosa prepares are sublime. The most wonderful selection of homemade baked goods, fresh fruits, pastries, the best ricotta I have ever tasted (from nearby Castelbuono, I believe), salami, ham and other cheeses - and perfect cafe espresso, cappuccino, etc. All of this is served in a lovely breakfast room overlooking the garden. Rosa is also a font of useful information regarding restaurants, sights and basically anything you might need. We would love to return.

We have just returned from a week in the beautiful town of Cefalu in Sicily - an area which we first visited in 2017. This time we stayed in the Astro Suite Hotel and here are our comments (some positive and some negative) which hopefully will help others to make a decision on where to stay: The good: Location - the hotel is in an excellent location being just across the road from the main beach at Cefalu and less than a 10 minute walk from the old town where there are lots of restaurants and shops to wander around. The best restaurants we found were La Brace and Le Chat Noir. There is a very good supermarket (Deco) around a 5 minute walk from the hotel which stays open until 10pm. Also, the train station at Cefalu has trains direct to Palermo in under an hour should you wish to visit the capital. Cleanliness - the rooms and all areas of the hotel are super clean. Towels are changed daily. Kitchenette - well equipped with everything you'd need if you wanted to cook. Staff - without exception, the staff are all very friendly and helpful. Swimming pool - the hotel has a small swimming pool with sun loungers. The pool is rather shallow but fine if you have young children. The not-so-good: Breakfast - the hotel serves a continental-style breakfast, so no hot food at all. We found the choice to be rather limited. I think the hotel should offer a wider selection of cold meats and cheeses than they currently do. Sun loungers on beach - the hotel does not have its own private area of the beach and therefore the sun loungers come at a charge. For us (3 people) this came to 35 euros per day (and more expensive at the weekend). So if you are staying for a week or more, this can add up to quite a significant amount. The hotel does loan parasols free of charge though if you don't mind laying out a towel on the sand. Beach hawkers - there seems to be a large number of people walking up and down the beach trying to sell you stuff all day long. Gets rather tiresome. Check-out - the time for checking out of the hotel on your last day is 10.30am. However, if you are not leaving for the airport until later in the day the only facility the hotel can offer you to have a shower before you leave is the outside shower by the side of the pool and then to get changed in the toilet cubicle near reception. Not very satisfactory!

My wife and I traveled for one week in Sicily. We stayed 4 nights at this resort and we enjoyed it immensely. It started with the check in process by Angela. She was wonderful describing all the benefits of the resort. She then smiled and said we had been upgraded to room 407. This was fantastic because this particular room was a suite with two different balconies, one facing the sea and one facing the gardens and pool. The entire ground are superbly maintained and clean. The rooms spotless, which is very important to my wife and I. The restaurant and bar staff provided great service with a smile, always willing to provide directions or recommendations. The food itself, while good was not great. Breakfast was good and a great way to start our site seeing. Be prepared to take a ten minute walk down into town. The walk back up to the resort can be challenging, but taxi's are plentiful and only 15 Euro. The resort itself is very laid back. It provided a quite get away that we were looking for. We will be back, and we highly recommend this resort.

We had a fantastic holiday. Love the hotel. It's authentic and Italian. We had no complaints about the food; there was plenty of choice. The room was immaculately clean and towels and sheets were changed frequently. We weren't affected by noise - there is a main road just outside but we were able to shut the balcony door at night and keep the air con on. The pool was lovely and it was peaceful by the pool. Staff were generally friendly - it helps if you can say a few words in Italian, particularly thank you. The staff work hard - all hours. I sometimes feel embarrassed to be British as the Brits can always find something to complain about. The weather could not have better and we loved the beach. All tourists were polite, friendly and well behaved. The 2K walk to Cefalu old town is lovely. The town itself is beautiful and full of culture and beautiful buildings. There are plenty of places to eat and lots of delicious ice cream and cannoli. I don't know what people want at times. We would give it 4 stars. Depends what you want of course. Might be different when the kids are off school. We went out of school time. Can't wait to go back.
