At first i have to say that i have read all the reviews online and i was sure that this place will be very dull and bad. But im happy to say it all was wrong! We LOVED that hotel! We took the standard with sea view room all inclusive so we dine and wine in the hotel for 4 days. I will start from the room - Everything was super clean and new, beautiful design and big terrace (with roof) The bed wasn’t so comfortable but not the worst as well. Shower was big and clean and towels smelled fresh and nice. The only bad thing i have to say is that the room was quite small and not enough wardrobe space as well. The food - We had breakfast, lunch and dinner in the hotel, as well as some drinks from the bar (all inclusive menu and also off menu) all was really good! The inclusive drink wasn’t for my taste, the wine selection was poor and the taste was very cheap… im locally from sicily and i know you can find even 1€ bottle of wine that taste better than that so i dont think it was a matter of saving. Anyway back to the food that was AMAZING i was very scared that all inclusive hotel will serve poor food but then i was wrong again, all was fresh and delicious, plenty of choice. High quality fish and meat. I loved everything. The facilities- We didnt had the chance to dip in the pool since it felt cold for us, but i could see it was very clean and big enough. We stayed in the pool area and beach area for all the stay, and it was quiet and peaceful with beautiful view to relax, exactly as we wanted it to be. The hotel crew was also organizing some games and activities, we took part in some of them and if was pure fun. The crew - I have to say that we saw the director of the hotel at the place every single day (also during the weekend) its a nice feeling knowing someone is actively managing the place and you can feel it as well by the way everything was organized and perfect.

I have mentioned some things above.

Very friendly stuff, offering lots of activities on-site for their guests of different age. Some programs continued till mid-night. Safe area for kids. Direct access to the beach. A big parking for cars. There are different tours being offered for groups to visit Palermo and other places. Great breakfast, lunch and dinner in a buffet style - the food was never boring and always of a great quality! Those who prefer this kind of vacations will definitely appreciated the facilities, the highest level of service and how everything is organised! However, if you came for a sea, then be aware - coast line is far from perfect. This is the only reason I'm giving 9 out of 10 to the overall rate of our stay.

A beach and water in this particular area. It was a feeling that it's few degrees warmer that it should be (maybe because of a factory or power plant, which is located a bit west of Himera's beach) . It's not as clean as on the east side (Naxos, Taormina area). But the biggest problem for us was an actual entrance to a water - the coast line is full of stones, which are not always visible and covered with silt. We swam just couple of times during our stay of 4 days. Swimming shoes are highly recommended!

The room was clean. The staff was very positive and helpful. There was a lot of options for breakfast, lunch and dinner. You can book tours in the hotel. There is a little shop even there so you can buy something if you like.

There are mostly french tourists so the staff is speaking firstly french and than Italian, english is very rare. At some occasions the staff spoke only French. If you book a tour outside the hotel be prepared (if you are an english speaker) to google all the information or somehow translate the tour guide. They said the tour guide will be speaking English which she did not (at first she tried but quickly gave up and tried telling us only the important information). The room we had was looking right on the pool so we did not have our windows open because of noise.

- Swimming pool and beach area is great. Enough sunbeds and umbrella’s for everyone. - Rooms are very spacious and clean. One of the best rooms we have ever had in Italy. And clean!! - Very friendly and responsive staff.

- The average age of the guests here was certainly 65+ so we didn’t really fit in. - The dinner buffet is quite expensive, the breakfast buffet wasn’t of great quality but OK overall. - The music / entertainment downstairs is loud and keeps going until 1.00. If you’re a loud sleeper, ask for a room far from the entertainment area.

beautiful rooms, comfortable, very clean lot of reviews mentioned noise, we did not hear anything and felt the rooms were peaceful and quiet easy check-in and check-out process, reception staff very kind

a couple of times the restaurant staff made us feel almost as if we were bothering them when needing help, we also noticed french speaking hosts seem to receive better treatment here Quality of pasta/pizza (practically cake with cheese on top) quite poor given we were in Italy

The property it is gorgeous, very clean, lovely pool side, lovely green areas. The staff was very nice and always checking on guests. Food was very good for our taste and need.

The mattress on the bed was quite out of fashion and not comfortable, after the first two nights we couldn’t rest properly and had back pain, my partener has hernia also and did not made him any good at all.

Very professional & Friendly staff. They do their best to accommodate you. Top notch cleanliness standard. The Garden and pool area are fantastic. Parking on property. Food is also good.

The room is very small for a couple. Our balcony was shared with an another room. Paid a good price for a standard which means you need to bring water , glasses , small towels and there is no kettle /coffee or tea supplied. As in toiletries just the right wash and shampoo and nothing else.

Absolutely stunning cuisine 🤍 Kind staff Perfect espresso Nice garden

Worse way to get from the beach to the sea

Everything was nice, cozy and very confortable. Every interaction with the staff was very pleasant, they arrange for a car to take us from the station, also they called for a taxi to Cefalu. The beach is clean and enough bedsuns everywhere - to the poll and to the beach.

All was good

lovely clean hotel with helpful and friendly receptionists who provide great advice. Loved the private beach and lovely pool.

an iron would have been really handy either in the room or at reception.
