Alberi del Paradiso

It’s the little things you don’t think about that signal great hospitality. And the reason you don’t have to think about them is because your host has. From the excellence of the bathroom fittings to the quality of the bedding, and on to the choice of staff and their training, making sure that training does not stifle the humanity and individualism of the people that work for you, this hotel gets it right. The setting of the hotel is massively enhanced by the care that has been taken with its gardens over decades. The planting has an unpretentious natural elegance providing shady arbours around the pool and the terraces, all of which someone has thought to make easily negotiable. This should be a tricky site to move around, but it isn’t; I never once ended up in a dead space. Making the steep but short walk up from the old town you are greeted with a kind of oasis, and not one that has appeared by accident. Value for money is one measure of a hotel and this hotel passes that test easily. Much harder to evaluate, but easy to feel, is when a hotelier really cares about what they do and creates an environment in which both guests and staff feel part of the same thing. This hotel achieves that quite rare thing.

Absolutely exceptional. Get the breakfast, it’s among the best hotel breakfasts I’ve ever had, and the check in experience was very personal and charming. Thank you Vincenso.

We really enjoyed this hotel. We had a prestige room with a sea view. The breakfast is spectacular with a juicing machine and a huge selection of carrots, ginger, oranges etc to put in it. Massive selection of fresh fruits and meats etc and a good cooked menu The staff are all super friendly and helpful - especially Rosanna on reception

I have been to many great hotels in Capri and Canne. This hotel was very good to excellent. The room was very nice and housekeeping excellent. Valentina and Irene at reception most professional and made us feel very comfortable. They were most kind. Finally we elected to eat at the hotel 3 nights. The food and service were excellent. Overall hotel provided a great deal of high quality amenities at a reasonable price point Dr and Mrs Berkey

Cefalu is a wonderful place to explore and the hotel is excellent for a comfortable base. The atmosphere provided by the trees and gardens feels like an oasis. The staff (thank you Matteo, Irene and teams) are wonderful, helpful and friendly. We particularly liked the cocktails, sofas, nibbles and supper, but relaxing by the pool was also very welcome after days exploring.

Absolutely wonderful stay at Alberi Paradiso. From the moment we stepped into the hotel, to the time we left, nothing was too much. The breakfast buffet was one of the best we’ve had, especially the omelettes, and the fresh juices were a nice touch. The hotel is a 10 minute walk down to the beach / centre, but maybe 20 mins on the way up; so maybe not ideal for those with limited mobility. A special thanks to Matteo- he’s a credit to the hotel, so friendly and always greeted us with a smile. We will be back! Milan & Seema
