The view from our room was incredible, the staff were wonderful and always helpful. The food quality at the restaurant was excellent and had a number of great options within walking distance too. The beach was perfect and had some great spots for snorkeling, kayaking and rock jumping. The pool was always sparsely populated as most were at the beach, so the kids were able to play in a giant pool mostly to themselves. A shout out to Nino at the restaurant and Elisa at the beach who made us very welcome.

The only negative was the steepness of the climb to get up to reception or to the pool. It's probably a good thing to burn off all the extra food we were eating, but I can imagine if you're not very mobile this would be a challenge. It also allows all the bungalows to have fantastic views as they each have their own cliff side spot.

The resort was gorgeous. It is cliff side and the views are amazing. The little bungalows that you can stay in are very private and cosy. The staff was lovely and even though we were the only Americans there, most of the staff spoke english with us. It seemed like the staff also spoke french as there were a lot french guests. Everyone seemed to be friends at the resort, it seems like they have a lot of return guests. The sunsets were gorgeous. Definitely get to dinner early so you can enjoy the sunset while you eat.

There are a lot of stairs. Be prepared to go up and down stairs to get to everything. They do have golf carts to take people around too but they can't get to everything. The main town area is farther away than we realized, you will want to take a taxi or drive and park at a lot. It was too hot to try to walk 45 minutes or more into town.

We arrived late at night not knowing what to expect but we we woke up and saw our view...unbelievable! We wandered down for breakfast and were greeted by their amazing staff. We could not believe our good fortune at stumbling on to this magical place. The rooms were SO well designed, the views were out of this world, the staff (especially Matteo...(the Johnny Depp of Sicily)and the whole resort were designed for providing their customers with the very BEST experience. Book it!! You will not regret it!!

What a gem. We very much enjoyed the cute bungalow with an amazing view. We relaxed at the lounge area listening to the waves breaking at the rocks, how perfectly zen. Enjoyed our dinner in the restaurant and very impressed with the service all together. They just opened for the season but all was in order right away. A bit of a hike but if you are up for it, use the pathway directly to Cefalu, a good 20 minute walk (one way).

First and foremost, you absolutely cannot beat the view! Each of the bungalows are situated so everyone staying at the resort can enjoy the smells and sounds of the sea. The staff was friendly and helpful, and the breakfast buffet is much better than others might suggest (either that or we were simply impressed with everything because we’re American and not used to the deliciousness of Siciliano dolci! We traveled in April which is just before the busy season, so the weather was a bit too chilly for the beach, but sun lovers will appreciate the solarium and chaise lounges next to the small strip of sandy beach. Will not hesitate to visit again.

Nothing can be better. Travelers should be advised that it is necessary to traverse some steep hills and stone staircases to access the bungalows as well as the sea site porticos for sunbathing. Disabled travelers may have a difficult time managing this. We did not utilize the pool due to the cool weather in the off season, but it is also a bit of a walk from the main property. Visiting the historical center of Cefalù is a short drive, and paid parking is accessible and available if you book in advance. There is a seaway passage into the city center that will require a strenuous 20-25 minute walk. The shower is indeed small but not uncomfortably so. Bring conditioner if you use it, as none is provided

The place was really clean and the personnel was helpful and nice. The private beach and bar was tidy and nice. We enjoyed staying here and the bungalow was peaceful. The distance to Cefalu city was more than 2 km. We recommend this place when going to Cefalu.

Nothing need to be improved

We recently had the pleasure of staying at the Calinica Seaside Resort, and it exceeded all our expectations. Nestled along the stunning Sicilian coastline, this resort is a true gem that offers a perfect blend of luxury, comfort, and authentic Sicilian charm.

The staff is amazing , they made us feel so good during our stay . For sure we will come back 👍 Thanks to you all, the staff for your hospitality and kindness .Mario,Mateo, Antonio, Giancarlo,Giovanna ,Gianni and many more .

Such an exquisite location in a beautiful bay and so close to the sea. Very friendly staff. Lovely breakfasts

The very narrow approach road to the resort is not lit and at night this was difficult and could be dangerous (walking or driving) The bar on the beach never seemed to be open.
