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.

What I loved the most is the views, the beach, you should drive to go into Cefalu downtown area; tons of restaurants, live bands, many shops & monuments to see. The staff at Blue Bay are all fantastic, helpful, kind, and just so friendly. We loved our stay and it was such a dream vacation!!! Gracie from room 305 ( Angelo & Lucy)

Location is fantastic; however, the property - perhaps not the rooms which are standard and not stylish at all - needs a refurbishment. It would then be a true 4 star hotel and then much more expensive than the value you get for your money as it is. We stayed for the night on our way to the east side of the island.
