8.4/10 Very Good! (215 reviews)

We had a wonderful stay at this property. What truly made the experience exceptional was the staff. The reception team went above and beyond to ensure we had a memorable visit. Their knowledge of this magical island was outstanding, and they provided excellent recommendations for beaches, restaurants, and must-see attractions. The level of service felt like a 10-star concierge experience✨A special thank you to Stepania, Mona, and Antonella for their professionalism, kindness, and genuine hospitality😉 The restaurant staff were equally impressive. Michael and the team at the pool bar were always friendly, attentive, and welcoming, making every interaction a pleasant one. The property itself has a unique charm and character that sets it apart. While it may not be the most modern Boutique Hotel, it has its own style and a warm, inviting atmosphere. The bathroom was updated and modern, which was a nice touch. The only minor downside for me was that the bed and pillows are a bit firmer than I prefer. The location is convenient and easy to reach by car, only about 20 minutes from Olbia's airport. Parking was plentiful and hassle-free, and there is a beautiful beach within walking distance. While there isn’t a great deal to do immediately around the property, it serves as an excellent base for exploring the area. Overall, we had a fantastic experience and would not hesitate to return. The outstanding staff and welcoming atmosphere made this stay truly special.

9.2/10 Wonderful! (106 reviews)

Nice hotel, good sized rooms. Unfortunately some of its facilities were not operational such as the beach club, second (beachfront) restaurant). Air conditioning in the room did not work. Staff seemed functional but not particularly welcoming. Perhaps they felt it was the end of the season. Maybe they should fully function and then close rather than stay half open.

7.4/10 Good! (11 reviews)

Location and beach was amazing. The room was clean and very nice, but the property was very dirty and some areas looks like a third world country. There is a wedding party that had a DJ with loudspeakers that went on until 2:30 in the morning. I at least would’ve expected them to have a 11 PM sound limit or something like that. The food was fine, but was only limited to one restaurant as the other ones needed to be booked ahead of time and the other two were closed for private events. There’s a hole in the fence and you can go to another restaurant at a different resort if you’re looking for different food options. I’m guessing this resort just needs more cleaning staff
