Nothing

I felt so well rested thanks to this hotel - it's like a luxury retreat. I adored this hotel and would stay again in a heartbeat! First of all, the staff were phenomenal and really made the trip special, so thank you! I kindly received an upgrade for my birthday which made the trip so unbelievably incredible and I'm forever grateful. The room was stunning with crisp white sheets and perfect modern amenities. The bed was so comfortable. I adored the pool area, so cool! Nothing was too much trouble. They provided us with extra bedding at our request. On our last day after check out we were well looked after before our train (infrequent because of Easter) as we had a few hours to wait. We were given access to the spa/gym bathrooms so we could use the pool again which was top notch. We treated ourselves to a spa day (35 euro pp) and it was really amazing. Breakfast was stunning. There was a generous selection: loads of fresh fruit, fresh cooked eggs and omelettes per each person (didn't cost extra), cereals, lots of cakes and bread, a charcuterie selection, gluten free options for me, perfect proper coffee. Everything was delicious. It's in a beautiful restaurant with a sea view. 1,000,000 out of 10 stay. Incredible.

This isn't something I disliked - I had a PERFECT stay, but next time I stay I hope that all areas and facilities will be open as the beach club and other gardens weren't open yet. We stayed right when the hotel opened for the season, so that's why it wasn't possible to use those areas. This is simply something for other guests to keep in mind when booking, if you wish to enjoy the caprese style beach and the beach club, check the dates and align your trip. I believe it's closed during most of April. I was looking forward to the peaceful sunchairs by the rocky beach, but it simply makes me wish to come back another time. I'll definitely stay again.

Everything about this hotel felt special! From the moment we were greeted by Andrea, who offered us welcome drinks in the bar and provided us with a free upgrade due to an event taking place at the hotel, we felt spoiled and "special". The hotel offers many places to relax and enjoy the sun - the beech club with the sunbathing platform offered very comfortable day beds and the service for drinks was top notch. The pool is absolutely beautiful - this feels like a luxury stay and the service measures up! Rooms were small but very beautiful and comfortable! Beds were super comfy! Breakfast was plentiful and delicious!!! Oh my goodness, it was displayed so beautifully and they put so much time and attention to making your morning feel special. A really delightful way to start the day!

The taxis / Ubers to Cefalu were a bit expensive, but we stopped worrying about it. We came and went as we needed! We walked to town one day and that was nice (but far). Honestly, not much to not like about Le Calette. A dreamy place with wonderful, warm staff and luxury offerings.

Outstanding breakfast with lovely choice (some food needs to be covered from wasps which put you off eating) fantastic view and wonderful facilities - fantastic spa

Didn’t like the Reef Restaurant Menu - was extremely expensive and there needed to be more choice of lunchtime snacks and food - the Luna restaurant was far too expensive for what it was although a lovely view!

Beautiful property with an amazing pool and a stunning coastline. We loved the reef club area. Breakfast was great - lots of options and scenic location. Staff and service were very nice. We got upgraded to a nice room with a sea view. The view from the room was amazing. We wish we had stayed more than 2 nights.

Rooms were a little tight and the bathrooms even tighter. The shared door between the shower and the toilet, while efficient, was a little weird. Having said that, we still liked our rooms and would love to go back.

We stayed for 3 nights and we loved the breakfast, pool and bar area and gym and the location is fantastic. The room was very small and we had no balcony of our own, just a shared outside area with chairs to sit out on. We paid over £400 per night so would expect a private balcony. The staff also could have been friendlier/more welcoming but aside from that we had an enjoyable stay.

Staff could have been friendlier Private balcony should be standard when you’re paying a lot of money to stay

We loved the room - it was an upgrade from what I had booked, and had a private courtyard and spa. The decor was modern and it was spotlessly clean. Rooms were serviced every day and we appreciated that. The swimming area was lovely - both down at the rocks and beside the pool.

Can't think of anything, really!

Our Stay at Le Calette Garden and Bay was wonderful. This was due to the location of the hotel, lovely pool area and access to the sea. The staff were amazing, particularly Pepe and Sabrina. The breakfast and meals were delicious and eating at Cala Luna overlooking the sea was so special. The reception staff looked after us so well by upgrading us to a quieter room and recommending some delicious local restaurants to visit. It was one of the best holidays we have had. Super restorative, in a wonderful location, looked after by such helpful, caring, thoughtful staff. We would definitely visit again!

The only negative to this hotel was that it backed on to a trainline, therefore I would avoid garden rooms as trains woke us up at 7am. The reception staff were very kind and upgraded us to a quieter room which really made our stay.

Gorgeous pool and grounds. All of the staff are wonderful and attentive. The lunch by the pool was very good. Breakfast was good.

Supposedly we were upgraded to a suite which felt more like a closet. No room to move comfortably and nowhere to put your suitcase or items. No hooks, a mirror that was placed in a position that you couldn’t use it. The bed was uncomfortable. The bathroom had no space to put your toiletries. The decoration was tasteful and very nice but the room was not comfortable.

Wonderful staff., and exceptional service. Very good food. Well appointed rooms( but see below) .

I did not like the shower being partly inside the bedroom. Also water gets wasted because the ash basins do not have plugs and overflows. The rooms are rather too small, even though well designed ( except in relation to comment above).
