Close to the beach

A beautiful hotel, just steps from the beach although we drove to the beach because the hotel provides chairs and umbrellas, and we did not want to walk down with them. The beds were very comfortable and the air conditioning was great! The breakfast at the hotel provided a buffet service, but the food was very good with several different kinds of eggs offered. We had dinner at the hotel one night and it was OK but not my favorite meal. Everyone at the hotel was very accommodating and helpful. We had a large balcony, which was nice to be able to sit outside. Very nice place!

Relaxing trip

Lovely 2 day stay at the spa and resort. Staff and service exceptional. The pool/restaurant and bar area is great for a relaxing day. Breakfast best during our time in Sardinia. Dinner lovely quality food for reasonable price. Room fairly basic but comfortable and clean with softest bed we had during our trip (most very firm). Town is small but beach and restaurants within walking distance. I think a 2 night stay is perfect length of time here whilst taking a break from exploring and experiencing all Sardinia has to offer.

Wir verbrachten mehrere Nächte in diesem Hotel. Das Personal war sehr freundlich und zuvorkommend; u.a. als wir in der ersten Nacht wegen einem Schnarcher nicht schlafen konnten. Als Entgegenkommen bekamen wir in der darauffolgenden Nacht ein Zimmerupgrade. In der Umgebung finden sich ein kleiner Minimarkt und mehrere Restaurants, die fußläufig erreichbar sind und Abwechslung bieten. Ein kleiner Minuspunkt war die Erreichbarkeit mit öffentlichen Verkehrsmitteln: Das Hotel ist schwer zu erreichen, und bei der Buchung über Expedia sollte beachtet werden, dass der Transfer nicht inklusive ist. Wenn man nicht mit dem eigenen Auto anreist, ist der Transfer daher recht teuer. Fazit: Sehr freundliches Personal und ein angenehmes Upgrade, aber Transferkosten und Anbindung mit ÖPNV sollten vor dem Aufenthalt bedacht werden.

Bel hôtel

Bel établissement aux chambres propres et bien équipées. La restauration est correcte bien que très loin du classement 4 étoiles affiché. Le personnel est sympathique et aux petits soins. Point noir, nous n’avons pas eu de WiFi pendant les 4 jours passés sur place, et ce, malgré les efforts du personnel pour réparer le dysfonctionnement.

Super schönes, kleines und gemütliches Hotel. Sehr freundliches und entgegenkommendes Personal, an der Rezeption und im Service. Unser Zimmer war sehr sauber und gemütlich, mit einer tollen kleinen Terrasse. Abendessen und Frühstück war sehr lecker und abwechslungsreich. Ohne Mietwagen nicht zu empfehlen, da es viele Ausflugsmöglichkeiten, aber nicht in der Nähe gibt. Aber wir würden jederzeit wieder kommen.

Service is 5-6 stars here. They go out of their way to do things you wouldn’t expect from a 4 star hotel. For example, they went to the police to pay my parking ticket, they went to he supermarket to buy my baby formula, they gave us extra room free of charge to make sure our family of 4 was comfortable. Hotel consists of two sections: main one with a restaurant, reception and a pool and adjacent one with just a pool. I would highly recommend to stay in the main area as it has a completely different vibe. The beach is about 10 minute, easy walk and it’s good after you have seen other famous beaches and juts want to have a laid back day without chasing turquoise water. The water gets very blue here too - just not comparable to Goloritze or Marioulu beaches. Take the a private boat to those and reception can help with that. La Luna beach is not recommended as it’s way too touristy and far.

Petit weekend sarde

Nous avons passé 4 nuits dans la région de Barisardo. L'hôtel est difficile à trouver sans GPS. Il est situé sur des routes de campagne en retrait de des grands axes. Les indications perdues dans une forêt de publicité est difficile à identifier quand on ne connaît pas. La zone de l'hôtel n'est pas super belle, en dehors de la plage à 11min. à pied. Il n'y a rien à voir à Barisardo. Par contre dès qu'on arrive dans l'hôtel, tout est très bien et très propre. L'accueil est très bien, les employés sont aimables et très serviable. Hôtel pas vraiment pour les personnes en difficulté de marcher. (escaliers partout) La piscine semble très bien mais avec la mer à 11 min, c'est difficile de se baigner dedans. (dans la piscine). Très bon hôtel hors saison. Avoir une voiture est une condition pour aller visiter les alentours.

Tolles Hotel mit freundlichem Service

Wir haben uns im Galanias Hotel sehr wohl gefühlt. Die Anlage ist wunderschön, ruhig und mitten im Grünen gelegen. Alles ist schön arrangiert und liebevoll gepflegt. Die Halbpension ist absolut empfehlenswert, qualitativ hochwertiges Essen, Themenabende,viel Fisch und lokale Spezialitäten, die Weine sind auch ein Genuss. Es gibt Vorspeisenbuffet und die weiteren Gänge werden am Tisch vom aufmerksamen und freundlichen Servicepersonal serviert. Schön gedeckte Tische stehen direkt am Pool. Für den Strand stehen kostenlose Schirme, Handtuch und Stühle zur Verfügung. Empfehlenswert ist die Bootstours von "Fuoribordo", die entlang der Küste führt, auch vom Hotel aus buchbar. Der Hotelinhaber Ilario kümmert sich täglich um seine Gäste, erklärt vieles über sein Land und dessen Traditionen. Das Hotel ist zum grossen Teil von Deutschen und Schweizer Touristen besucht, es wird auch Deutsch gesprochen. Wir empfehlen die Anlage für Paare im mittleren Alter. Wir kommen aber sicherlich wieder!
