Athenee Palace details
This place puts some of Sicily’s best sights within easy reach. It’s just a 15-minute drive from Cefalu’s city centre, and close to the main roads that lead to Sicily’s capital, Palermo. As for the hotel itself, it’s got a private beach and a pool scene that’s certainly worth writing home about. One pool is in gardens landscaped with hibiscus, oleander and palm trees, and there’s another one that has its own bar down by the beach. Inside, there’s a spa complete with indoor pool and a buffet restaurant.
