Le Calette Bay

無論是房間、酒店的地點、裡頭的設施和服務人員，都非常好；我們有一個很棒的三天兩夜！ 一定要留時間好好地吃頓他們的早餐，走去他們的私人海灘，發呆或游泳都好， 景色非常好！

Text: Le Calette is a vast hotel complex situated on a hill above the sea, about 25 minutes walk from Cefalu. It consists of two parts: Le Calette N5 (which positions itself as a 5 start property - and merits each ray of these five starts largely!) and Le Calette Bay, a 4*, which is right next to it and shares all the facilities (the restaurant, the swimming pool, and, I assume, the beach - which was inaccessible during our stay in late April, as it is too early in the year and it was not open yet). We've spent 2 nights at Le Calette Bay (the 4* part of the property), and we loved it! We had a junior suite with a private terrace featuring a view of the little port and the bay. Although the room layout is somewhat questionable, meaning, the shower is separated from the toilet and washing basins, the room itself was spacious and clean, combining the traditional Sicilian style with cutting-edge facilities, such as a Smart TV where you could find all necessary information, from the room service menu to the messages from the reception. The pearl of the whole complex is the pool, which offers a fantastic view of the port, sunbeds and umbrellas, and a pool bar, where you can access the menu by scanning a QR code and order your drinks. Breakfast was delicious, various and excellent quality. All the staff of the complex, from receptionists to waiters and to massage lady, are smiling and friendly, everyone speaks English, some of the team members speak more languages, so there is no risk of communication gaps. We would like to extend special thanks to Sonia, the barmaid, for her openness, her sincere smile and her professional attitude

My wife and 20 year old daughter spent 2 nights at Le Calette after spending our first few days in Taormina and we absolutely loved it. You quickly realize that the location is a gem with its own secluded bay however still very close (20 min walk) around the point to the charming town and busy beaches. What made me ensure to provide this review was that despite 2 days of pampering, great beach time, great meals and service, we found ourselves with a painful surprise when we went to pack up our rental car and move to our next stop. Our car had a large dent on one of the rear passenger doors. Fortunately it turned out I was at a resort where they truly do care and since we had not moved our car since we arrived we asked the hotel to help us as the prospect of paying a large deductible was going to dramatically sour our experience. All I can say is that the hotel GM was fantastic to deal with and helped us turn a negative into a positive. We’ll be sure to stay at this resort next time we’re back in Sicily as we stayed at several that were luxury but it’s always the attention to detail and service experience that sets the great ones apart.
