I was presently surprised when we arrived at this hotel as it is an all inclusive resort but isn’t advertised as one anywhere on Expedia and the hotel’s own website. We were only here for 2 nights but wish we were here for longer. The restaurants are great here and really good pizza. Absolutely stunning maintained gardens throughout the hotel and views of cefalu mountains.
The only downsides I have to mention is that the hotel has a shuttle which isn’t advertised well as we ended up paying €60 for a return taxi to cefalu without being told upon check in that there is a free hotel shuffle available for us.
The hotel is also poorly signposted with a lack of signage to illustrate where you are and where the bars and restaurants are (they are massively spread out) we ended up getting lost many times!
Also the hotel needs to improve accessibility for all guests as there are no lifts and there are unnecessary added extra steps and stairs everywhere. I feel for those who require accessibility needs as this beautiful hotel isn’t suitable for them as a result.

Pollina resort was a great spot for a family holiday. The resort is clean and well run, facilities are good, and rooms comfortable. Breakfast and the buffet dinner were very good. Catering after breakfast was very focused on the all inclusive guests with limited options for B&B guests - I recommend the short walk into Finale to Trattoria Aarhais for some excellent local seafood.

What an amazing trip. Everything was top notch! This report is amazing and over delivered from what my expectations were going in. Beautiful location, beautiful hotel, rooms are nice and well kept. Very close to a perfect 2 weeks. My only complaints were some of the staff at the pool are a little indifferent to your needs, but for the most part they were all amazing. Well done! I would highly recommend this place, and would go back in a second if I’d ever be in the Cefalu area. Location is not perfect to visiting other cities, and require lots of driving.

Stunning location - disappointing experience
We stayed 6 days at Mangia’s Pollina Resort. While the location is truly stunning—with incredible views, a great pool, beach access, and a nice room—the overall experience did not meet expectations.
There was a general lack of information throughout our stay. The website provided little detail on activities, and the weekly program was incomplete. We had to ask staff about basic things like the shuttle to Cefalù or evening entertainment, which could easily have been communicated more clearly.
One of the most frustrating parts was the inability to access drinking water. It wasn’t allowed to refill bottles at the water stations around the resort, and bottled water was only available for €3 per 0.5L at the pool bar.
At the pizzeria, we had trouble enjoying our meals due to an overwhelming number of wasps—there were constantly several on our food.
Lunch options were very limited and overpriced. A small sandwich and drink easily cost over €20 per person, which felt unreasonable for the quality.
Lastly, the service in the restaurants was not up to standard. Staff seemed stressed and rushed, often interrupting us and asking for payment too early. It may be due to language barriers, but some basic training in English and service would help a lot.
Reception staff were kind and helpful throughout, but overall, we left disappointed and unlikely to return.

We found this property was a rip off. It was nice but not worth the price we paid. We paid 750$ a night on the Friday and we have NOTHING, no show, no kids club, no transfer service to the beach, and the list goes on... VERY disappointing... even the food at tthe buffer was mediocre for Italy...

This was a stunning property. We arrived to the property very late at night and it was nice that at 2 AM. Somebody was there waiting for us. Any helped us with all of our luggage in the sweltering heat. His name was Luca. The grounds are absolutely stunning and well kept, the staff here is extremely friendly. I enjoyed the walk down to the beach and snorkeling by the rocks. It is truly beautiful property not very far from Lou, which is also wonderful town. The only suggestion I would have is water shoes for those in the area wanting to visit the beach and also to pack light because it is difficult going through all of the steps in the property to get to your room. I truly have nothing bad to say about this property. I just wish that the store would’ve stayed open a little longer instead of closing for such a long period of time. I cannot wait to come back again

This Property is lovely and pool and beach access are amazing and would recommend for the price.
What I will say is that theirs is no above and beyond or any kind of wow factor. Food was just fine, service was just fine, no one seemed to really want to help out or go out of their way for anything. No laundry service and no iron in room. rooms where made daily but water was not replaced and coffee k-cups where never replenished from day one.
Like i said we enjoyed our time and having access to a private beach and pool where great but in reality just a fancy looking hotel and not a resort.
