  : Great views & beautiful gardens.
  : Dated & in need of refreshment decor & furniture wise. Infinity pool was not working to full potential despite high season. Initial sea view room was not sea view, we had to walk across a shared terrace invading the privacy of the room next door to see the sea. After room change it was better.Transfers to the beach are charged per person per day despite it being the hotels own shuttle, then beach beds specifically for the hotel guests are an extra fee on top. Taxis cost a fortune regardless of short distances, the minimum fee is 45 for a 5 minute drive. Nothing is within walking distance.

  : -I spent 3 nights in the hotel with my partner and we loved every second of our stay. We would have stayed longer if we could. It's a classy hotel, with good standards and a lovely atmosphere. It's perfect for a romantic stay with your partner. -The location is perfect to explore Costa Esmeralda. The main beaches are very close in a car drive. -The views of the bay from the room and the swimming pool are just outstanding. They are worth every penny. -Breakfast is great (cakes and croissants are delicious) and you can enjoy amazing views from the restaurant, with the sun shining, to start the day with a smile. -The beds are really comfortable and we enjoyed a good rest. -We had a room with swimming pool and sea views, which I recommend. We had a little balcony which was lovely to enjoy too. -The common areas and the surroundings (garden, bar area, swimming pool...) are very well looked-after and beautiful. -They have an infinity swimming pool which is lovely too and they provide towels. -There is parking inside the hotel, which is very helpful because you would need a car to stay there. -Staff was friendly and attentive, which is always appreciated. Just an example, one morning we were waiting outside the restaurant on a sofa because our room was being cleaned. A member of the staff came to offer us a drink while waiting without us requesting it. It was a lovely gesture!
  : -The only downside I would say is that you need a car to make the most of the stay because you would want to explore the beaches around the area and also go out for dinner in the different restaurants in the area. -In terms of breakfast, there is one thing they can improve, provide some more variety of products and also fresh fruit cut.

  : The location is the only thing that I can rate highly as it is in Cala di volpe and has lovely sea views. The pool itself is a good size and deep and the surrounding gardens are pretty.
  : Paid a substantial amount for very little service, mediocre food, tiny oudated room, bathroom and shower barely big enough for one person. Dirty and broken shower knob and plastic cups in the bathroom. Shabby looking pool area generally unclean and unequipped rooms and badly run hotel. No luxury feel such as slippers, bathrobes, kettle and such in the rooms and not romantic. Definitely not 4 star standard let alone 4 + and incredibly overpriced for its value. Breakfast was ok but not great and could have had more variety and better quality. Everything closed at a certain time and it was impossible to even order a coffee after that. Dinner was ok but they find it difficult to accommodate for allergies or substitutions and again the menu was very limited and bland.
