"The location of the resort is stunning and remote. You will definitely need a car to get to local towns and shops. It is in walking distance to the beach which was stunning too.
The atmosphere was geared towards relaxation and well being and did not disappoint. Throughout the day there was calming music playing and although the resort was busy this was only evident with the use of the beach, pool or restaurant. But never once does it feel overcrowded, noisy or intrusive. Sometimes it felt there were less people than their actually was. The hotel is not an adult only hotel but it is not geared towards children either. There were children there but it very much felt like an adult on atmosphere if that is what you are looking for. The rooms were kept to a high standard and checked and cleaned daily the cleaners were unitrusive and hardworking, especially in the heat. Saying that I found the bedroom a little chilly on an evening but too warm if aircon was off, but the hotel offered me an extra blanket to combat this. (I like a little weight from my bedding) but everything you needed was there in the room (although husband wished there had been coffee making facilities in room as well as the well stocked mini bar which had juices, water, beers and sodas.
We found a small local shop quite close by, which was perfect for snacks, water and any extras you may run out of.
The excursions we did were amazing, I would definitely recommend the catermeran, the day was so special and the FEAST provided was delicious and family like. We also did snorkeling, speed boat and the jeep tour, all very much worth the money and seeing more of the island and getting lots of opportunities to swim. The lady onside who organises these does so on your behalf with local companies and keeps you well informed.
Sardinia is expensive, and yes sometimes people may find the food pricey at the hotel but please note the food is done to a high standard, the restaurant was immaculate and food exceptional. There was also a bistro which did smaller meal options for through the day until early evening. The breakfast included was extensive and if you left hungry, you only have yourself to blame. Cooked options, pastries, cereals, meats, yogurts, breads and fruits all available and again the standard was very high. We also ate at other places but the costs were roughly the same depending on where you went.
My biggest compliment has to go to the staff. They work so hard to make sure your stay is amazing, they work very long days and always accommodated, smiled and chatted. I had grown very fond of them and was very sad on my last night saying goodbye. After 11 nights, we felt we had gotten to know some of them well. I tired to tell each one my thanks personally but there are just so many amazing people who work there. I could not thank them enough for making our holiday wonderful and for the hard work they do/did. If you want sun, sea, relaxation, beaches, scenery and amazing food, this is the place for you. Thank you to you all Lisa and Steve x"
