Insulae Resort

The staff were always friendly, yet always professional. Beautiful hotel and environment. The food in the restaurant was incredibly good, with excellent service. Somewhere to eat in the evening with a more relaxed atmosphere would have been nice. Walking into Cefalu isn't such an issue. Parts of the road arent paved, parts are. Just be careful and you can cut down a side street to take you onto the beach road. Takes about 40minutes walking Would I go back. Definitely !!

My husband and I have recently returned from a week stay at Insulae resort. We enjoyed a very relaxing break at this intimate hotel. The hotel is small contemporary and beautifully positioned on a hill near to the sea. The sunsets are incredible!! The nearby beach is small and rocky with a bit of sand. There are no local amenities within a safe walking distance. The town of Cefalù can only be reached by car as the roads have no pavements which makes walking dangerous. The hotel does provide a free shuttle service into Cefalù during the day and the last trip in is at 6.30. This is perfect and saves a lot of money in taxis if you have chosen not to hire a car. Taxis from Cefalù are approximately 15 euros before midnight, some taxis will try for more so be careful not to overpay!!! There is quite a small team providing an excellent service at the hotel. The bar and restaurant staff are very attentive and work incredibly hard to provide an exemplary service. Particular credit should go to Allesandro and Gianpiero who would single handedly make drinks and provide lunch service to all of the residents, always with a big friendly smile and a joke here and there. Breakfast was excellent buffet style, with the option to order eggs and pancakes. We enjoyed 2 evening meals at the hotel which were stunning !!! The bar food at lunchtime was good, however a little overpriced. Cocktails were excellent too! We would definitely go back to the hotel if we were to visit Cefalù again.

Beware, there is reason for the no refund policy! This property is not as presented . no privacy/backs up to railroad track.... The resort beach access is located at the bottom of someone's home?? Don't bother !
