Laura in Sicily

Without a doubt - YES! Club Med Cefalù is one of the most beautiful locations I’ve ever experienced. Perched high on the cliffs with uninterrupted sea views, every moment—from lounging by the pool to dining—comes with breathtaking panoramas. Every aspect, from the service to the food, felt consistently thoughtful, turning each mealtime into a delightful experience to savor. The resort's spacious and well-designed environment makes it ideal for couples, families and solo travelers of any age.

The design is another standout— modern and stylish, yet seamlessly connected to the Sicilian landscape. Club Med Cefalù felt like a destination in itself, offering a perfect balance of activity and relaxation. As someone who enjoys keeping active but also craves peaceful moments, I loved having the freedom to set my own pace, which made the trip both refreshing and fulfilling.

With easy access from Palermo—just over an hour by car—and Cefalù’s historic town just a 20-minute walk away, the opportunity to explore beyond the resort is convenient and delightful. A morning stroll through cobbled streets allows visitors to soak up the local charm effortlessly.

Above all, what stayed with me most was the atmosphere—elegant, warm, and welcoming, like a luxurious home away from home. That feeling of genuine rest, of being looked after, surrounded by beautiful views, and having the space to just relax, is something I’ll remember for a long time.

Before visiting Club Med Cefalù, I hadn’t experienced an all-inclusive resort, so I wasn’t sure what to expect, but I quickly appreciated the seamless management of dining, activities, and impeccable service, allowing me to truly relax and savor every moment, knowing all the details are taken care of.

Honestly, no two days were exactly the same and that was part of the magic. There was no pressure to do anything and yet so much available to fill your day. I'd wake up to the sound of the sea, savoring sunrise and coffee on my terrace, which became one of my favourite little rituals. Sometimes I’d head to one of the wellness classes, the team there are amazing, and it’s all included, which makes it easy to say “yes”.

The breakfast options were fantastic, fresh fruit, Sicilian pastries, and great coffee that made the start of the day feel special. After that, I’d either head to the infinity pool or into Cefalù town. I loved wandering the streets, sitting at a café, and just watching the world go by. It added that cultural touch that made the whole trip feel richer. Lunchtimes at Riva Beach restaurant were a highlight, with its stunning sea views and fresh dishes. Afternoons were dedicated to relaxation: unwinding at the Zen Pool, visiting the spa, or soaking up the sun on the resort's private beach.

Evenings were literally golden. The sunsets are unreal. Dressing up for themed nights, music, and dancing added extra sparkle to the experience. Dinner offered many options, with Il Palazzo as a standout for it's beautiful setting and next-level food. Ending the day at the theatre to enjoy the live music and performances provided the perfect end to a truly dreamy day.

We stayed in one of the Sea View Deluxe Villettas, and honestly, it was stunning. Tucked away on the hillside, it felt beautifully private and peaceful, with views over the sea that made every sunrise and sunset feel magical.

The design was effortlessly chic, blending natural textures of stone and wood with soft linens and calming, coastal tones, very in tune with the Sicilian setting.

The amenities were spot-on too. We had a super comfortable king-size bed (with the fluffiest pillows!), a walk-in rain shower, huge bath tub, plush robes, and a well-stocked minibar that was refreshed daily. I loved the small touches, like snacks left for us, and quality toiletries that felt like a spa in a bottle. Even the wardrobe space was thoughtfully laid out, which always makes unpacking feel that bit easier.

But the real highlight for me was the terrace. It was spacious and private, with loungers and a little table where we’d sit with a glass of wine at golden hour. Watching the sun dip below the horizon from there was honestly unforgettable.

It wasn’t just a place to sleep , it became part of the whole experience. Calm, peaceful, and just a joy to return to at the end of each day.

The food and drink at Club Med Cefalù truly elevated the whole experience, it’s one of those places where every meal feels like a special occasion, whether you’re after something casual or a bit more refined.

For relaxed, al fresco dining by the sea, Riva Beach Restaurant is unbeatable. Its laid-back yet stylish vibe complements fresh seafood, vibrant salads, and Mediterranean dishes, perfect for a leisurely lunch or sunset dinner with stunning sea views.

Il Palazzo, the resort’s signature restaurant, offers a refined experience in an elegantly Sicilian setting. The menu features authentic regional dishes made with local ingredients. A standout for me was the pistachio pizza—a delicious Sicilian twist on a classic that's unforgettable.

La Rocca, serves a generous international buffet with live cooking stations featuring Italian staples like pasta and pizza, as well as seafood, meats, and a well-loved gelato bar.

For drinks, Bar La Rocca is the place to be. Whether you’re craving fresh juices, or creative cocktails, it’s the perfect spot to unwind after a day of activities or before evening entertainment.

My favourite memory from Club Med Cefalù has to be from the first evening, standing by the infinity pool as the sun began to set. I’d just arrived, still settling in, when I wandered down to
take it all in, and I’m so glad I did.

It was the first time I saw Cefalù town from the resort. The way it hugged the coastline, glowing in the evening light, felt almost unreal. The sky was turning those soft pink and orange tones, it looked like something out of a movie .

What made it even more special was the quiet sense of togetherness. Couples, families, even staff all stood poolside to soak it in. A shared appreciation of something really beautiful.

That sunset was the perfect start to an unforgettable trip and it was the moment I realised Club Med Cefalù was going to be an experience I’d treasure forever.

Oh and one last thing I’d definitely recommend the half-day boat trip from Cefalù. It’s a beautiful way to see the coastline from the water. The views are incredible, and it adds such a special, memorable experience to your stay.
