Very nice hotel & property about 5 km and not too far from town. Excellent staff/customer service and food was fantastic! It is location a short ride to the beach which is a private and quiet little enclave. The only thing we really didn’t like was that the beds were rock hard and very uncomfortable which did not allow for a good nights sleep but besides that, it was a nice little stay which also included live music on the patio adjacent the pool area. The staff in the restaurant were lots of fun and provided great customer service! Thank you

Hotel Baia Del Capitano is a very well run Hotel 2-3 mile from Cefalu. The room was spacious and the beds were large (Both myself and my wife are 6ft). The hotel runs a number of shuttle busses throughout the day to Cefalu for the Hotel guests. The Beach near the Hotel sits in a rocky bay approx 300m wide with ample swimming and snorkelling opportunities to see a large number of fish. The hotel has its own private area offering sun loungers and parasols on the sandy beach, at no further cost. The beach restaurant is well run and offers a good range of food and drink. The beach is approx 500m from the hotel, but the hotel offers a tut tut service to the beach which is fun. The food and drink offered at the hotel is of a very high standard.

Views excellent, rooms very good, staff very accomodating

Excellent accommodation in quiet location. Very convenient for visiting Cefalu with free shuttle bus.

Nice hotel beach 10 minutes walk from the hotel. Good service from young man in reception.

Pool v small and almost walled in. Not enough deck chairs. Hotel noisy, you could hear people above you when they walked around. Staff friendly. The room was ok but all a bit worn and tired. It’s about 10 min walk to the beach. Breakfast ok but a bit of a shambles with lots of people scrabbling for food at buffet. We had one evening meal which was way below average. I had 3 vegetable skewers, vegetables barely cooked and tasteless: a bad deal at 18 euros! And you’d need a car, the hotel is quite cut off from any bars or restaurants. All in all a little disappointing!

A very comfortable hotel about a 7-10 minute drive from Cefalu. The beach is a 5 minute walk from the hotel. The breakfast was great. We didn’t eat dinner at the hotel, but the menu looked good, and the restaurant looked lively. The WiFi was a bit spotty in our room, but was better in the common areas.

An easy and friendly environment. Just far enough out of cefalu.

Loved it all 🙏😍

A bit isolated, but nice and comfortable place. Excellent in-house restaurant..

The Hotel Baia del Capitano was a nice resort style property outside of Cefalu. The staff was very friendly and very nice. The other guests were largely German tourists. The location was a bit away from Cefalu. There was a complimentary shuttle at scheduled times but returning outside the scheduled time was a 15 Euro cab ride back. There was not a lot around the property except private homes. The 'sand' beach was about a kilometer away and the beach chair set up was nice but tight. The sand gave way to rocks just under the water. The pool was nice and well kept and the barstaff at the pool was pleasant and friendly. The breakfast was fine and the breakfast staff was pleasant and efficient. If your idea of vacation is drinking by the pool or laying by the beach it is a pleasant property. If you want to explore Cefalu more you might try a hotel in town.

Stayed 1 night and had a quick check in after arriving early. Parked under cool canopy in beautiful grounds. Our room had 2 large windows/shutters with view of Cefalu and sea which was 5 minutes drive. Room was clean and fresh with comfy bed fresh linen/towels, toiletries, hairdryer and flat screen tv (English channels). Clean bathroom with shower.Food was like Michelin star and reasonable price. Breakfast was great choice of cooked or cereal, breads and cakes, freshly squeezed orange.We had coffee at poolside bar where lounger and parasols were provided. We had picnic on rocky beach 2 minutes walk plus went to sandy beach 5 minutes walk. Towels ,lounger and parasols provided free from hotel. Free shuttle into Cefalu but we drove and parked near hospital for free and ambled down lane into town. We loved the colourful streets and had ice cream in the square by beautiful cathedral which was full of character and happy faces. The beach was lovely with lots of cheerful bars ,cafes where we had a nice cold beer with stunning view. Hotel staff and locals really friendly and happy and we wished we could stay longer. Only 1 hour from Palermo stunning drive on tol was 90 cents. Weather was wonderful and we would definatley go back to this hotel and stay for longer as it was a little gem in a peaceful haven.

The title explains all! Very disappointed, public areas were fine but our room was a dark box and bed not at all confortable. The pool area was adequate but yet again there was music playing so loud you couldn't read. The hotels only redeeming feature was its restaurant where the food was excellent if expensive.

Room was very small and looked more like a cabin. Luckily we had room 301 with an enormous rooftop terrace with good shade almost to ourselves

Pros: -The pool and reception areas of the hotel are lovely. -The free transfer between the town and hotel is a nice touch as the hotel is about 15 mins drive from the station. -Very friendly staff-A good spread at breakfastCons: -The basic room was purely unacceptable. It was dirty, dark and stank of sewage. We had to complain several times to get a different room.-The restaurant is very expensive and there arent many restaurant choices around the hotel.-Unexpected/ too high charges- we requested a small birthday cake for two. Although, this had been given gratis at other hotels, we wouldnt have minded paying. However, we were told that they would be happy to, without mention of a price. When the cake arrived, it was huge. The staff expected some of the cake and they ended taking most of it, even though we offered only a little. We were then charged 20 euros at check out. Although not a huge amount, it would have been nice to know when requesting the cake and we didnt even get to eat/take most of it with us as the staff ate it.-The wifi kept cutting out.Overall, its a nice hotel but definitely on the lower end of 4 star.

Quiet, plenty of parking, nice pool. Stunning location.

Good hotel not too big. Great food. Beach and pool options.

A very nice hotel for the price. The room was small but comfortable. Breakfast and the grounds were excellent.

A nice hotel but situated about 5km out of Cefalù and it's all main roads so you have to drive. The hotel has all the normal amenities and has a big car park for those requiring parking. Breakfast was brilliant but dinner less so, I'd advise going in to Cefalù for the evening. All in all a good base as long as you have a car.

The greeting at reception was very friendly and helpful. The room was comfortable with a balcony overlooking the pool and some sea view. Access to the beach was well explained as it requires a five minute walk. The hotel provides access to lounge chairs and umbreallas on the beach. The buffet breakfast was reasonably good. Dinner was set up in a small grove of olive trees - a beautiful candlelit setting with live music/entertainment. Parking was very good.

The good: Very clean air conditioned room Lovely, clean pool Beach within walking distance with loungers and sun umbrellas Friendly, helpful staff Good choice of options at breakfast (fruit, eggs, toast, pastries, yoghurt, cereal, even cake) Good food at dinner in lovely al fresco setting The slightly less good: Small shower (but very powerful and water is hot) 15 minute drive to central Cefalu - fine if you have a car, but don't rely on the buses - they usually come, but not on time. Pool is small, not good for lengths, but there is always the sea Overall, I really enjoyed my stay and would visit again (though I would rent a car to see more of the island and get to Cefalu / Palermo more easily).

This hotel is some distance from the town on a beautiful headland. It's a bit of a walk down to the beach, which has deckchairs provided. There are a variety of outdoor places round the hotel to enjoy; gardens front and back, a restaurant in an olive grove, a very nice pool with bar adjacent and a roof terrace with stunning views across the bay. We stayed in rooms a short distance from the main building, having slightly the feel of holiday cabins, though quite well equipped. Lighting was poor and air conditioning draughty. Staff were helpful. The bus into town was infrequent, and for those with luggage, taxis to and from the station were necessary.

Brilliant breakfast Lovely restaurant in olive tree garden Friendly staff Roof top sea view excellent

We only stayed one night at this hotel. It was clean and comforyanle with surprisingly good service. The pool was still too cold to swim and the beach is very rocky. I think they import sand. The hotel is west of Cefalu but it was very quiet at night.

Really liked the hotel and surrounding area. Chilled out suburb of Cefalu, too far to walk into town centre. Nice swimming pool and tennis court. Food was decent, and breakfast croissants especially delicious.

Secluded so needs a car.Quiet ,comfortable and friendly.

My partner & I, travelling with our 16 month old son, stayed for 2 nights. The room we had was very big, comfortable bed, Jacuzzi bath and balcony overlooking the pool. Plenty of parking, playground for kids, the pool was good and if it gets too hot you could have your beer under the olive trees behind the pool. Really pretty & high spec hotel. Good food in the restaurant and the breakfast was the best of all the hotels we stayed in during this trip. The staff were very friendly and made such a fuss over our son. We felt very special during our stay. We would defiantly return. Regarding price, we couldn't believe how much we got from our stay with a price that was no more expensive than any other hotel on this trip; especially when the other hotels were of a lower star rating. On star ratings, I am always skeptical of star ratings in Italy. We stayed in 3 stars on this trip that would barely meet 2 star in Ireland. This hotel offering was 4 star plus in my view. The only down side is the location. You are well outside the town of Cefalu and will need a car. That wasn’t a problem for us. It was also a little difficult to find. The sat nav couldn’t find it but it was well sign posted when we found the general location.

Positive: swimming pool and very nice gardens and surroundings. But we lacked a balcony and a better view from our room.

The hotel was great. The private beach turned out to be a roped off area on a public beach. The beach had a lot of rocks so I would recommend water shoes. The hotel had an outstanding lunch and breakfast on site. We did not try dinner, but I would bet it is top quality as well. We will return to this hotel the next time we go to Cefalu. The staff was very professional at all times. It was well worth the money.

Very comfortable hotel wit an easy access to Cefalu

Have just returned from our trip, the only disavantage we found was that it was difficult to access the town of Cefalu unless you drove. The hotel was pleasant and staff helpful, did find it hard to communicate at times has there was limited English spoken. We were a little disappointed that there were no tea and coffee making facilities in the room, being English we do like our tea. The food was fantastic, we ate at the hotel restaurant on four evenings and the food was of a high standard. We did hire a car but found it hard to find the beauty of Sicily, if we were to return we would go on excursions instead.
