Absolutely stunning property. Staff were very welcoming! The property was great! Beautiful pool and many quiet areas for beach views and swimming in the ocean! Good snorkeling right off the property. Rooms were comfortable and breakfast was great. We did not explore any other dining options as we would head out for lunch and dinner each day. Highly recommend this hotel.

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.

Amazing stay!!

This hotel is amazing and was way beyond what i expected it to be. It’s not so easy to see on the pictures if the hotell is fresh and clean. But it is, and I’m surprised this does not have 5 starts compared to some other 5 star hotels we stayed at. The hotel is situated by it self in a natural reserve, the view and beach is absolutely amazing. It’s not over crowded and the staff is very friendly as well. I can not recommend this enough.

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.

Considering the price for a stay at the hotel one would expect things like snorkeling sets , canoes , kettle .

Calm and newly renovated hotel located in beautiful isolation. Multiple opportunities for finding sun beds at various places along the sea and pool. No beach, but very nice rocky areas for snorkeling! Surprisingly non-crowded even at high season (we travelled around and the other hotels were full at this time). This made it easy to get sun beds. Mostly couples and a few families as guests, combined with the isolated location, made this stay very relaxing. Unless you have a car, you should be prepared to eat all meals at the facility. Slightly lower score for the service and selection at the restaurant.

The view was stellar. Room nice and clean with a great balcony. Parking was easy, ( for Italy that’s a big deal ). Pools very nice and clean. Staff at the pool bar were great. Negatives, they are expensive for food and drinks. One of the pool people, ( lower pool ), was on a power trip. Breakfast was great except that do they don’t know how to make eggs that are edible. Overal, great. Would return.

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.

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.
