What a wonderful stay at this hotel. We definitely hit the peak season which I would try to avoid if we do it again but our stay at Hotel Cetus made up for all the hassle of traffic and crowds. This is a beautiful hotel - built into the rock face of the sea wall. Amazing design and workmanship. The staff at this hotel are really great people, seeking to make your stay as pleasant and memorable as possible. (One quick note however: despite wireless service being free, we rarely had service in our rooms. The only places we really had service was on the beach and in the breakfast room, otherwise nothing.) Carmine, Matteo, and many others went out of their way to provide impeccable service and wonderful food offerings. The breakfast buffet was varied with many healthy options (yogurt, granola, nuts, hard boiled eggs), a variety of juices, tea and coffee; espresso or cappuccino made for you at your request; wonderful apple cake and other pastries... we spent two full days on their private beach. Wait staff takes your lunch order then has it ready for you around 1 pm in their little cantina, from which you can also purchase beer, water, sodas and white wine. They provide a chaise lounge and umbrella for each guest. The beach is rocky so many people wore water shoes. Boats, kayaks, paddle boards etc cruised up and down the coastline. Chartered boats picked up their guests at the dock at the edge of the beach. Dinner reservations are recommended and this wait staff is extremely attentive. We really enjoyed our stay here and hope to be back someday!! read more
