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.

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.

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.

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.
