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)

Lovely one night stay!

Beautiful balcony and nice rooms with AC. Rocky but beautiful beach - bring water shoes. Longer walk to Cefalu when very hot, but nice location on the east side of the town. Great breakfast!

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.

I would recommend this resort to anyone who enjoys relaxing, sunbathing and watersports. The batt is very safe and not too too deep; the resort has free equipment for use by the guests (pedalos, kayaks, etc.). It's very quiet, away from the hustle and bustle of Cafalù centre but easy to get there if required.

What a place! Blue Bay is in the most incredible location, the photos do not do it justice. We only spent two nights here but would love to have stayed more. Even my non-beach loving partner had a fantastic time enjoying the surroundings and all the water activities that are included, such as snorkelling, beach shoes, kayaks, water chairs and pedalos. The hotel was lovely and clean and the room was very spacious and quiet. Breakfast was tasty with plenty of choice and the staff were incredibly helpful, the quickest check in we have ever experienced! You are around a 25 minute walk from town but it is worth it. Cefalu is gorgeous with incredible sunsets and restaurants to enjoy. The hotel has small salads and snacks and there is a place just along from the hotel (past the Kalaru hotel next door) which does fabulous arancini for lunch, although sadly we only discovered this on the last day! You can also get lunch at the Kalaru next door which is a little pricey but nothing terrible. Or you could take your own food for lunch as the apartment has a little kitchenette. We would 100% recommend and would rush back tomorrow if we could, I very much hope to return one day.

Amazing location, away from the crowds and in a little corner of heaven. The beach is out of this world and all facilities are free. We had lots of fun with kayaks and pedalò all day long. The kids loved it! The accommodation is lovely and comfortable; best part was the large private terrace each accommodation has, with wonderful sea view. Only downside is there are no supermarket nearby and the restaurant next door is quite pricey. I’d recommend stocking up in town and using the facilities in the accommodation to cook. Staff is lovely and looked after us beautifully: we are vegan and we were spoiled with large plates of specially cooked vegan food just for us, every single morning. The beach cafe also had piadine for us every day. We were very grateful for their extra effort! We are planning to come back next year as we had a wonderful holiday
