This hotel is located in a beautiful area. The water view us spectacular! The room was very basic but clean though. It has a nice area where you can get into the water and swim in the ocean. Breakfast was ok. We didn't like dinner at all. Go to Alghero 20 minutes away and find countless little quaint restaurants.

We booked panarama and sea view room. Room was clean and well kept (605). The sliding bathroom door was very noisy to open or close due (possibly needed grease or oil?). We would stay at this property if returning to Cagliari.

It’s a nice place in a lovely area, the room was very good. Front desk staff and cleaners were great, but at breakfast it was tricky to get a coffee promptly. they should put nespresso machines in the rooms really. Gererally my main issue is with the restaurants, overpriced and mediocre food. very useful to have a car to allow going elsewhere. so we had a great time and its a place I would consider staying again, but I cannot give five stars because of the restaurants.

We had a great stay. It’s super peaceful and the views are amazing. The food is great too. The only pitfall is that things are advertised in their pictures but are not included, like the spa. They have so many photos of the sauna and steam but they cost.

Beautiful hotel on the water. Very remote location. Hiking within walking distance but no restaurants within walking distance. I was able to rent an automatic car that was delivered to the hotel. There was no concierge service as was advertised but the front desk was helpful. Book your excursions in advance as they aren’t offered daily.
