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 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.
