Amazing stay in the nature

Thos is a magical holistic type of place. It's in the middle of nature (so not walking distance to anywhere) for those who wish to switch off and enjoy spectacular views, great walks, amazing food at the restaurant (with views to the lake) and good service. The rooms are cute, cleand and spacious. Easy to park and easy to get to the place in spite of the remote location. We loved everything in this place. Well recommended!

I recently stayed at this hotel and was thoroughly impressed with the location and facilities. Situated in a stunning spot with incredible views, the hotel is a great option for those seeking a peaceful and relaxing getaway. The rooms and common areas were clean and well-maintained, and the prices were reasonable. One minor inconvenience was that the hotel does not allow outside food or beverages within its facilities. While this policy could be frustrating for some guests, the hotel's own food and drinks are excellent, and the bar service is available 24/7 for added convenience. Overall, I would highly recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a comfortable and relaxing stay in a beautiful location. Just be aware of the policy on outside food and plan accordingly.

Fantastisch!Wunderschön, ruhig und erholsam . Ein traumhafter Ort, um in völliger Stille zur Ruhe zu kommen. Das Hotel liegt in den Bergen, umgeben von herrlicher Natur, mit einem atemberaubenden Ausblick. Es ist absolut empfehlenswert und definitiv ein Ort, den man auf Sardinien besuchen sollte. In weniger als 30 Minuten erreicht man die schönsten Strände rund um Olbia und Porto Cervo. Das Personal ist äußerst freundlich und hilfsbereit, und die Küche bietet leckere, authentische Gerichte – mit viel Liebe zubereitet. Wir wünschen Ihnen alles Gute und weiterhin viele zufriedene Gäste!

Dans l’ensemble tout semblait parfait Environnement très calme au milieu de la nature et magnifique vue sur le lac Superbe piscine Hôtel plein de charme Cependant nous avons eu un soucis dans notre salle de bain qui était infesté de vers dans le bois de la porte nous l’avons signalé à trois reprises et tout ce qui a été fait a été de mettre du spray pour éradiquer les insectes, le problème a persisté durant tout notre séjour, nous retrouvions des dizaines de vers étalés sur le sol de la salle de bain chaque jour, nous ne pouvions pas marcher pieds nus dans la salle de bain . Cela a gêné notre séjour dans cet hôtel et aucun dédommagement nous a été proposé Dommage pour un hôtel de ce standing

Super godt hotel

Hotel Valkarana er bestemt et besøg værd. Vi boede der en uge i Juli 2024. Hotellet ligger meget afsondret, der er blandt andet ikke noget telefon signal. Du skal derfor have en bil for at komme hertil Men udsigten, maden, stemningen og omgivelserne er helt i top. Personalet er super søde og servicen er første klasse. Der var kun få ting. Morgenmaden er i top, der er hvad der skal være, dog synes vi der manglede lidt brød, da det der var var noget tørt. Et man måske kunne skære nogle skiver fra og var lidt mere friskt Frokosten og aftensmaden er det samme menukort. Der mangler lidt lette retter til frokosten i stedet for. Vi kørte ud og spiste en del, da, selvom maden er virkelig god, bliver ensformig hvis man har det samme at vælge imellem alle dage. En anbefaling er i hvert fald at lave en lidt anden menu til frokost. Vi vil ikke anbefale hotellet hvis man har børn med. Ikke fordi hotellet ikke tager imod dem, men fordi aktiviteterne for dem er meget begrænset. Der er godt wi-fi og en pool, men det er også det. Når alt det er sagt, giver vi stadigvæk stedet 5 stjerner og vores anbefaling. Det er et virkelig godt og roligt hotel og kommer du til Sardinien er det her bestemt et sted du bør overveje at bo.

Das Hotel Valkarana liegt herrlich abgelegen am See Liscia, Nähe des Dörfchens Sant Antonio di Gallura. Wir haben die Ruhe und die Einsamkeit dort sehr genossen. Die ganze Anlage sowie die Zimmer sind sehr gepflegt, sauber und ordentlich. Sehr zu empfehlen ist es Halbpension zu buchen welche jeden Abend in Form eines 4Gänge Menüs serviert wird. Das Essen war wirklich extrem lecker und abwechslungsreich. Auch das ganze Personal war immer sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit. Aufgrund der abgelegenen Lage lohnt sich ein Mietwagen auf jeden Fall.

Tranquil oasis - Perfect to unwind - VERY CLEAN!!

Beautiful location very tranquil. Nice building and grounds. The owner, Salvatore, literally doesn't stop. From serving breakfast at 7am to tidying up sun loungers at 9pm. He runs this place with his heart, and it shows. Pool is nice and cold, ideal to cool off. Very quiet grounds. I'd say a car is imperative if you intend to explore the locaility a bit further. Restaurant is spot on, both in terms of price and quality. COVID 19 practices were consistent. The cleaners did a tremendous job of keeping the place clean. Having travelled quite extensively in my 36+ years, often in 5 star accomodation.... this has to be the cleanest room we have ever stayed in. You could eat your dinner off the floor. IMMACULATELY CLEAN. If you wish to relax and unwind in the sun, in peace and quiet, this is the hotel for you.

Our favourite hotel in Sardinia

We loved everything about this hotel. The building is beautiful, the view couldn’t get any better and the staff and owner are amazing, so friendly and helpful. The pool is great, big and with enough beds. The room is super spacious, ours has an amazing view and it’s really quiet. Also the food exceeded our expectations, we had breakfast, lunch and dinner here, all really good with lots of options. If you want a get away from the crowds, have peace and are looking for a beautiful hotel, this is really the best place. Special thanks to the owner and Vari, for being so helpful and accommodating! Only regret is that we didn’t book more nights, wish we stayed here longer!
