Cefalù Italy

Club Med Cefalù is set in a truly stunning location, beautifully maintained, with villa-style rooms that are comfortable and of good quality. The food is excellent, and one of the highlights is the ability to walk to Cefalù along the seaside—a lovely experience.

However, some aspects did not meet expectations. The G.O team was not always friendly or present, and the Chef de Village was essentially invisible throughout the stay. As a result, there was very little atmosphere, and the usual Club Med spirit was noticeably missing in this Exclusive Collection resort.

I strongly recommend choosing a villa with a sea view, as other room locations can be hit-or-miss and may lack privacy.

Overall, the setting and dining are wonderful, but the signature Club Med energy and engagement are unfortunately lacking at Cefalù.

We loved the vibe of the resort and haven't been on a holiday like it. The enthusiasm and effort the staff went to to bring the feel good factor was incredible. From tennis lessons to pasta contests to mozzarella festivals to the spectacular evening entertainment all hosted by Club Med staff.

Our son has a nut allergy and we chose Club Med thinking it was predominantly a la carte. However the beach restaurant was closed and the palazzo had same menu every night. So, our only choice was the buffet. However, Andrea and his team bent over backwards to keep him safe. Special shout out to Sous Chef Cozmin who was on hand to talk us through every meal, really understanding the seriousness of the matter. Even when he was off duty it wasn't a problem!

Another shout out has to go to the enthusiasm and welcoming nature of Ivan in welcoming our 8 year old son to the bar...they became best friends by the end of the trip...what a character!

Thanks also to Manu who was great with the tennis lessons and Thomasso for his general friendliness throughout all the land sports.

Finally, everyone who is behind the scenes...they may not grab the headlines but you should all be very proud of your efforts guys...keep up the good work!

After a nice week at ClubMed in Cefalu, Sicily one can consider himself and/or herself privileged. The site is just gorgeous and the gardens well taken care by the garden crew. We are welcome to by reception staff that are so gracious, accommodating and ready to help answer our questions. I would like to mentioned Rafael, Lea, Manu, Almandine and Alpha who always welcome with a smile and addressed my request. The housekeeping staff were some lovely ladies that did they jobs so well. The one that took care of my room has even paid attention to the type of tea liked the most and made sure that it was available for me. I wish I could have taken her name. But my thanks to all of them. At the bar: Natha, Bea, Angelo were great. At Rocca restaurant: Giovanni, Salvatore, Paula, and basic all the waiters took care of me like if I was king. Francesco, pastry chef, made amazing pies and cakes. Faustine was great in her core, pilates, and other courses that I took with her. Eva was our yoga teacher. Despite of the few days that we had rain, she strive to keep the classes going by identifying other possible locations for the classes. Last but not least: Andrea, our Chef de Village who daily reached out to guest, had a chat, had meals with GOs, took us to a tour of the Club and showed us the cute historical church (Chiesa di S. Lucia), the original house of the chef du village and other sites and its anecdotes in the property. Andrea made feel at home and taken care. Many GOs were commenting on how hard is to handle all the different personalities that come to the club and making sure that things in order for the satisfaction of everyone one. I guess that explains why Andrea holds the position that he has. Bravo, Andrea and team for making the GOs stays an amazing one.
