Maddalena Island Vacations from $2,236

This is an amazing hôtel. Great friendly and helpful staff. Convenient location

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.

The staff at the grand hotel were very helpful. They accommodated all of our wishes and helped us throughout. The pool bar staff are lovely and work really hard. Only criticism was our last lunch around the pool bar/restaurant was not good every other time it had been good. Perhaps an off day. The staff seemed very busy and run off their feet so the reflection is on the kitchen. In hindsight we should have refused to pay for the food and sent it back, Again the hotel is amazing and staff wonderful one bad lunch won’t put me off returning. Warning cabs in the area are needed or hire a car the cabs are very expensive for short journeys and amazingly they charge €10 more for a night time journey. The hotel was clean and quiet. It would be amazing if they had some entertainment a couple of evenings a week around the pool area. Again I would definitely return. Sardinia is beautiful however not much happening in Porto cervo.

The grounds were simply breathtaking. Its own private beaches with outstanding views. Quaint library room stocked with books, multiple cozy areas with plush couches all over the hotel where one can sit and relax, multiple dining areas, beautiful pools, delicious buffet breakfast, direct access to the marina walkway bringing you to multiple restaurants, cafes and shopping. The hotel hostess, Carla, is an absolute gem and catered to our every need. Alessandro took incredible care of us at breakfast and preempted our daily coffee and tea requests :) The rooms are fine, although brittle bed sheets and not great pillows but that would not deter me from returning. Even the chamber maids made sure we had what we needed and bent over backwards to accommodate. I absolutely loved my stay and look forward to a return visit.

Hotel is in the middle of nowhere. It is a slightly odd feeling in May because most of the place is deserted. The beach club wasn't open once and you are around a 25min walk in to the town. Word to the wise - have a hire car. We both paid extra for a deep tissue massage which it absolutely wasn't. Spa are is nice. Staff friendly and breakfast is decent.
