Guest reviews
Exceptional
Great potential ruined by bad cleanliness, broken amenities, and total disregard for guests
Liked: The location was reasonable, but having a car is definitely essential to get anywhere. The nearest beach is a 10-15 minute walk, and you definitely need a car to get to the main town area. However, the hotel itself was beautiful, and the room was spacious, mostly clean, and comfortable. Some of the staff were very friendly and helpful.
Disliked: Unfortunately, our experience was completely ruined by terrible service, lack of cleanliness, misleading amenities, and total disrespect. To start, while the room appeared clean at first glance, if you look closely in hidden spots, the standards are far below acceptable—there was actual dried feces on the hinges behind the toilet seat cover. Additionally, the refrigerator in our room was not working on the first day, and we had to specifically call the staff to come and fix it. The worst part of our stay was the hot tub, which was meant to be the highlight of our trip and the main reason we spent a lot of money to book this room. Throughout most of our stay, the water was completely cold. When we complained to the reception, one of the female staff members gave us endless excuses—claiming "it just takes time to heat up," yet each time providing a completely different timeframe, proving she was either entirely clueless or simply making things up. Furthermore, this same staff member constantly gave us dirty looks whenever we walked by. Additionally, they have a pool table on the property, but it is completely crooked and unplayable because the balls just roll from side to side on their own. Even worse, after we contacted Booking.com on October 4th, they opened an official complaint on our behalf requesting a partial refund. After over two weeks of silence, I contacted Booking.com again, and they issued another urgent request to the hotel management. More than two days have passed since that second attempt, and the hotel still hasn't even bothered to respond. I was originally going to give a higher rating, but after seeing this complete disrespect and disregard for guests, everyone deserves to know the truth. Stay far away from this place!
Excellent service
Liked: The hotel was a lovely size. The pool was wonderful. The service was excellent. The breakfast was amazing
Disliked: The only evening food available (post 17:00) was fine dining. There was a shuttle into town but the last one was at 6:30 going into town and earlier back.
Lovely jewel off Cefalu
Liked: New facility, beautiful sarrounding landscape and rooms. Very friendly staff.
Disliked: No real access to real beach.
Nice place with a modern beach club vibe, 10 minutes outside of
Liked: Modern styling, nice pool environment-free shuttle bus - friendly staff
Disliked: Building site close to property, obviously that will finish at some point so only a temporary problem
Hôtel agréable
Liked: L'hôtel est joli, propre et raffiné. Le fait qu'il ne soit pas très grand crée une ambiance intime et chaleureuse. Le personnel est bienveillant et très aimable. L'accès à la plage est pratique; 6/7 minutes à pieds. Les chambres sont dotées d'une terrasse spacieuse et confortable.
Disliked: - L'hôtel est situé à proximité d'une entreprise de construction en bâtiment et d'une ligne ferroviaire; ce qui peut être bruyant. - Les chambres ne sont pas très grandes, limitées en rangement et il n'y a pas de séparation entre la salle de bain et le coin nuit. - Le matériel de sport mériterait un petit peu plus d'entretien.
Liked: Our stay at Insulae Resort truly exceeded our expectations. The entire property is beautifully designed, very well maintained, and has a wonderful, relaxing atmosphere. Everything feels elegant, comfortable, and thoughtfully put together. What really made our stay special was the staff — everyone was exceptionally kind, welcoming, and always ready to help. Their hospitality made us feel at home from the very beginning. The location is also fantastic: peaceful and relaxing, yet perfectly positioned for exploring Cefalù and the surrounding area. Overall, Insulae Resort was even better than we expected, and we genuinely enjoyed every moment of our stay. We would definitely return and can highly recommend it to anyone visiting Cefalù. Thank you to the entire team for such a wonderful experience!
