    Amazing private beach - but poor sleep for me

    I got a very reasonably priced offer for a room - but the price was explained by the room. It was quite small, right next to the elevator and with not much sound insulation. I could hear the elevator going up and down and people in the corridor very well to late at night and early in the morning. So although the hotel in general is great I slept very poorly if at all. I wish I had known this about the room beforehand. The other rooms in the hotel are presumably much better, and I would stay here again.

    The hotel area is gorgeous with a reasonably-priced restaurant overlooking the sea and the most beautiful private beach. The breakfast was more than you could hope for - good options also if you have food intolerances. The restaurant staff were very friendly. The hotel seems to have a lot of activities and facilities available, which unfortunately I didn't have time to explore during my short stay. The hotel is a 40-min walk / €15 taxi away from the town centre, but you'll easily also spend a few days just enjoying what the hotel has to offer.

    The lunch was very expensive for what is was - maybe it was just what I chose. The chicken salad was very disappointing - just some basic lettuce leaves and a few slices of chicken breast. Certainly not worth 16 euros.

    The room was very nice and had everything we needed. I would have liked a couple of chairs on the balcony as the hammock, albeit very quirky, wasn't for us. It's a bit of a walk into the town but a short taxi ride which was fine or we caught the bus one evening which was also good and very cheap. Breakfast was very good with a huge selection and a real barista serving coffees.

    Very thin walls (you literally hear people speaking and using the restroom), faulty sliding door in the bathroom and slightly outdated structure.

    Insane view and great breakfast, pool and beach. Very nice location and great during off season!

    Small things but considering the price you’d expect better - Beds were uncomfortable, shampoo needs improving, balcony wasn’t private (see through to each balcony along side of hotel) Decent walk into town - consider just eating at resort while you stay or be prepared for taxi costs each trip

    Private beach & dining deck over looking water was the highlight!

    We had terrible weather (which obviously the property can’t control!) so could not have the opportunity to enjoy the beach or the pool during our stay as we were only there for 1 night!

    Location was great and it was nice to stay in a proper hotel as we had been at B&B’s for the rest of our stay in Sicily. The room had a beautiful sea view, bed was comfortable and bathroom was spacious as well as having a great shower. We had dinner in the hotel restaurant which was A La Carte and breakfast the next morning was buffet style but all the food choices were very good.

    This hotel is quite isolated so there aren't many options nearby to go and eat. We ate at the hotel the first night which was expensive and not that impressive. The next night we walked through hotel La Calette and around to Cefalu (20-25 minutes) and ate at Da Sasa which did good pizza and pasta. This hotel is expensive for what it is, but we had an enjoyable stay. I would recommend taking the train to Cefalu if you are coming from Palermo. Quick, easy and cheap tickets. Take a taxi to the hotel. It will cost you about €12.

    I'd read the reviews for Kalura and knew it would be pot luck with the room. Ours was dated, but not bad and was very clean. It suited our family for our 2 night stay. We loved the beach and pool and found the staff kind and attentive. My girls also enjoyed the breakfast buffet and the barista was doing good coffee (included in the buffet price), which was a plus.

    The room and bathroom felt dated and basic. As was the gym and main reception. For the price this felt like a real miss.

    The private beach was amazing, and the views incredible. It felt secret and special.

    Not much to complain about..... if anything, one of the girls at the front desk was not overly friendly like our other experiences in Sicily. And lack of soaps/shampoos- easy fix.

    We had a beautiful room with balcony overlooking the sea- spectacular views. Perfect way to end our time in Sicily. We had lunch and dinner on the patio which was also spectacular!
