What guests think

At Alberi del Paradiso, travellers consistently praise the serene gardens, beautiful pool, and exceptionally friendly staff, while noting the hillside location above Cefalù makes walks or taxis necessary, with shuttles easing access to the beach.

Rooms range from spacious and nicely appointed to compact or dated, and several guests found the beds quite firm with occasional noise from thin walls. Cleanliness is widely praised, though a few mention bathroom drainage issues, AC humidity, or maintenance quirks. Breakfast and on-site dining receive strong reviews, especially fresh juices and well-executed dinners. Expect a peaceful resort-style stay with attractive amenities, balanced by variable room comfort.

The service and staff are incredibly nice. The breakfast is fantastic. The hotel is up on a mountain. There is a shuttle that will drop you off at the beach with chairs - very lovely. However the beds are super hard and we had a bad experience with noise levels in all directions as the walls seem to be very thin (above us and each side - noisy). The fitness room could be updated as well - it’s in bad shape.

Pool and dining area are beautiful and private. Staff is excellent and very accommodating. Tennis and shuttle to private beach are huge bonus features. Overall, it was amazing but there are some negatives: walking home after a night in Cefalu city can be tiring. The hotel is very uphill. Our room had a funny smell every time we came home. Also, the walls are thin –\xa0we could hear a room full of kids next to us. It had adult-only honeymoon vibes, so when kids show up at the pool it ruins the energy and noise levels.

The location is not so convenient for getting into town - we walked back (uphill) and regretted it very much. Staff were excellent. Only problem was the the a/c in the room. We asked for it to be checked as it really wasn't working well at all. It was only the following morning (at check out) we were told there was actually a problem which the engineers were in the process of fixing. We were not told that the previous evening when we raised the issue. It really was uncomfortably hot (and humid) in the room all night

Luxury hotel with exceptional service from Julia and others, nice pool and grounds. Very hard bed and pillows which we found common in Sicily. Restaurant is quite good but most dining options are in town, a €15 cab ride each way. Free access and shuttle to beach club which is in between two restaurants . P.s. Uber seems hopeless in Cefalù. Ocean view was partial,

This hotel was a bit out of the way but added to the charm. It was situated in a quiet street but close to the beaches and walk to the Rocca of Cefalù. The breakfast was good and the staff accommodating. Unfortunately, the rooms were outdated which took away some of the value for the money but otherwise an okay visit.

We had a 4 night stay at the end of June, rounding off our 10 day trip to Sicily. The hotel was located up a hill above Cefalù and while the walk down into town was OK, the walk back up was challenging, especially in the heat. We were booked into a Prestige Sea View Room. It was a corner room which was compact but clean. We did find it warm as as the air conditioning is centrally controlled, we had to ask reception to alter the temperature. We are not tall people but we did find the bed short although comfortable. Breakfast was good with a nice selection and the freshly squeezed orange juice machine was exceptional. We had several lunches and dinner on one evening which was good. The pool area was nice although there were no umbrellas so you need a sunbed under a tree if you are looking for shade. The staff were all efficient, helpful and very friendly. The Restaurant Manager even made an effort to greet us by name. Our only complaint was the price of a gin & tonic (€15 for a Tanqueray). If ever in Cefalù again, we would choose this hotel.

The staff is friendly and very attentive. Every interaction with them was pleasant and very helpful and they even helped me strengthen my Italian skills. They have some of the best smelling toiletries I’ve ever encountered, and even the cleaning staff was super friendly.. The hotel is a bit of a hike from the center of Cefalu so bring comfortable shoes for the track, but the distance offers a bit of a getaway and peacefulness.
