“+ the location directly in the bay + swimming area + thousand cats outside next to the hotel (especially around the tower) + good big breakfast buffet + massage offers + friendly staff (most of them)”
“breakfast is fantastic! Room is big, clean and comfortable!”
“We loved the location, staff, food & service and the room. We went late October and it was relatively quiet which is what we wanted. If you came here in the height of the season, i expect it would be the opposite! As an extended break for grown ups its the perfect place. There are facilities for children so these are accommodated well as well.”
“The location is superb with views over the Porto Conte bay towards Capo Caccia, spectacular sunsets and in the heart of the Regional Natural Park, wildlife on the doorstep. One night we disturbed eight wild boar just yards from the entrance and I could snorkel in crystal clear water straight off the sun terrace.”
“The location and the view from our room were great”
“The view was wonderful and that’s why we choose this hotel in Alghero. The breakfast was ok but need more. But this is 🇮🇹. The room was ok for a junior suite.”
“Location of the hotel is really good when you have a car. It is close to many nice beaches (we went to different one every day) and to Alghero, a nice town on the coast. The rooms are spacious and made up daily. Staff was attentive and very helpful. Special thanks for a free upgrade!”
“Fabulous location and phenomenal staff. Welcoming, friendly, competent... Will be back!”
“Location was great. The Mediterainian Ocean was just feet away.”
“Fabulous head of dining staff. Very welcoming and great service. Wonderful views of Capo Caccia and sheltered from wind. Chrystal clear water, loungers on rocks by sea.”
