Acacia Resort details
With its show-stealing pool scene, mountain backdrop and private beach, the Acacia Resort is all about style and scenery.
This one’s a real show-stopper on the looks front. Nestled into the Mediterranean coastline, about sixteen kilometres from Cefalu, the Acacia Resort is set in ten acres of landscaped gardens. It’s backed by craggy mountains and just footsteps away from its own private beach.
When you really want to unwind though, pick a spot by the pool. This lagoon-like number is big enough to have its own palm tree-dotted mini island in the middle.
In terms of accommodation, you’ll find the rooms stylishly comfortable – and each one comes with its own private terrace or balcony. If you’re away with the family and space comes top of the priority list, you’ll find bungalows dotted throughout the main garden. They’re a little more basic on the décor front, but air-conditioning, satellite TV and mini fridges still come as standard.
Food-wise, there’s a roomy restaurant. With indoor and outdoor dining areas and an a la carte or buffet menu to choose from, there’s plenty on offer to keep things interesting. Think fresh pasta, stone-baked pizzas and just-caught seafood aplenty.
