We are a family of 5 and stayed here early July 2008 for a 2 night break while on holidays in Alghero. Booked the hotel mainly because it had a pool and a room that could take 5 and wanted to see the Costa Smeralda. Booking was extremely efficient and the manager remembered me when we arrived!

The hotel is situated on a road pretty much in the middle of nowhere! The small and upmarket resort of Baia Sardinia is a few km down the road and the extremely posh Porto Cervo about 10km and worth a visit to see the boats alone.

Our room was simple, decorated in a Sardinian style with plenty of character and space. It had a small terrace with a view of the sea. Everything was spotless.

The pool was the best thing about this hotel, kids loved it after having only a beach in Alghero. Very uncrowded with only a few people there at a time.

The lobby/bar area was lovely, again with plenty of character though I would have enjoyed an outdoor bar/restaurant for the evening.

The restaurant was the disappointing part, though the food was quite good. The room was totally indoor with curtains closed at all times. Both at breakfast and dinner there was a buffet which was pretty empty by the time we got to it. By 9.30pm the restaurant was empty as was the lobby....not sure where everyone went but a bit of atmosphere would have been nice.

A few things to note: 1. Yes, the beach does not exist. There is water a few mins walk away from hotel but in no way should be called a beach. 2. Not one person staying at the hotel was English speaking besides us 3. The hotel is probably only a 4 star because of the pool. It's more what I would describe as 3star, though perfectly pleasant.

Had a 2 night stay last week and was somewhat disappointed with the hotel.

Room was ok, but i definately not 4* standard: a bit of mould on bathroom ceiling, cracked mirror in room, wonky toilet seat, tiny telly (and fuzzy reception on it), scuffed walls. Now I know this are common problems but not usually in 4* properties.

Noise a big problem in rooms - can hear the noisy neighbours, and one day there was a very funny smell coming from the area near the tennis courts (sewage?).

Breakfast very basic- we arrived at 9.30 and nothing but croissants and a few rolls left, breakfast was til 10.00am so unsure why with 1/2 hour to go nothing there.

That said of the negatives, the pool was beautiful (although didn't get a chance to swim as weather too cold), and reception staff were very friendly.

This hotel is clean spacious and welcoming. It has free internet in the lobby and staff are very helpful. It is about 5km from baia sardinia, but if you have a car this is not a problem. The rooms are clean, big and have a fridge. They are very noisy due to the tiled floors so if you are at ground level you can hear every little noise from the rooms above. The walls are very thin so there is a lot of echoing. The pool area is brilliant lots of sun beds and the pool has two different depths great for younger children, who are able to swim.The breakfast was lovely with a variety of cereals, cakes and fruit. We did not stay for lunch or evening meals. There are many good restaurants in the town area which are reltively cheap for this area. we enjoyed our stay here and would recommend a visit. Our only downside was the price it think i was a bit pricey for a four star. Iwould state it as a good 3 star

Stayed here for 3 nights in July, 2007. We loved it! Spacious rooms, very clean, nice little patio, and the restaurant was excellent!!! Very quiet and relaxing, very nice pool.
