10/10 Excellent
"This was a great hotel in a really good location for exploring this part of Sardinia. Our room was a really good size (we had a deluxe room) and the bed was very comfortable. The staff were really friendly and helpful and the hotel itself is lovely. Although the pool area is small it’s a lovely relaxing space and we had no trouble getting loungers - despite other reviews commenting on this. It’s a nice luxury to have a rooftop pool in a city. The rooftop bar has stunning views over the marina to have a cocktail and watch the sun set. The food in Ceilo (rooftop) was very good but I was a bit disappointed that the lunch and evening menu were the same. We made use of the beach club that the hotel recommends and really enjoyed visiting Poetta beach which is beautiful. Would definitely recommend this hotel."
