The views over the bay were lovely, the pool was stunning, and the garden was beautiful, though it wasn't well kept. The beach wasn't very good. This former monastery could feel like paradise, but the people responsible don't seem to care enough about guests or the facilities. Messages went unanswered, and even though we let them know when we'd arrive, we still had to wait. The road up is adventurous. Experienced drivers may be fine, but if you're relying on tourists, I don't understand why they don't invest in a better road. The kitchen had too little equipment, including not enough glasses or mugs for everyone in our family, so cooking took some improvisation. Cleaning was average, especially in the bathroom, where the fan was full of dust. Some of the furniture was worn out. I wouldn't recommend La Villa Palamara, or a visit to Cefalú. In my view, it's much too crowded and touristy.
