Campeggio Sanfilippo

The service really stood out. The staff were wonderful, the paths were kept clean, and both the grounds and sanitary facilities were tidy and well cared for. We stayed in a clean, well-maintained stone house, though the tent areas and bungalows looked so thoughtfully laid out that we wished we'd brought our tent. The site is by the sea, on sloping ground, so the walk down to the beach is a bit uphill and downhill. That beach, with its green, clear bay and a few rounded rocks, was our favorite after Cefalù beach. We’ve camped in many countries and seasons for over ten years, and found this campground by chance on our Cefalu holiday. It may be the best we've seen; 4.4 points seems a little low to us. The shaded areas have trees, the landscaping is lovely, and ceramics feature throughout the design. The flowers are well cared for, and the jasmine smells great. Everything was beautiful. Thanks again to all staff.

The staff were the loveliest we've met at any camp, and they were both kind and efficient. We had a great shady pitch with a sea view, only a few steps from a beach with both sand and rocks. The toilets and showers were exceptionally clean, and there are laundry machines, a market, and a bar where you can get fresh bread and croissants every day. Cefalu is just a few minutes away, with restaurants and shops, and we fell in love with the picturesque town. There’s a shuttle from the camp several times a day. This was the best campsite of our month-long trip through ltaly.

We were trying to get to the campsite next door, but staff here waved us in and we hadn't realized there were two sites side by side. By the time we parked and set up, we discovered our mistake when we went looking for the pool. This place doesn't have one. We only lasted one night after neighbours and several staff kept coming right up to our doorstep while we ate dinner, trying to sort out power box problems. Hot showers cost extra, and the reasonable power option does too. The low power setting kept cutting out whenever we used anything beyond the fridge. The beach is tiny and rocky, and, yes, there's no pool.

The path down to the sea is lovely. We swam and watched fish in the daytime, caught the sunset in the evening, and even spotted stars at night. A larger supermarket is just a two-minute drive away, and there’s a shuttle into the city at set times, which saves the hassle of parking in Cefalu. The minimarket covers the basics and also has good coffee and Aperol Spritz. The toilets and showers are clean, and there are nice pitches for campers and tents, along with a few apartments and small cabins. The employees are nice too.
