Beach Resorts in Golfo Aranci

"Absolutely beautiful hotel and the staff are so friendly and warm. Particular thanks to Alessio who helped us speak to the airport when our bags had been lost and Barbara and Damiano in the restaurant were so lovely and helped us learn some more Italian. The rooms are big, very clean, so cool and comfortable. The staff were fantastic and the food great. Buffet breakfast was fab, as was the buffet dinner. Lunch is a la carte and kind of expensive for lunch but Sardinia is quite expensive, so it’s all relative. There is a path from the hotel to the beach which is beautiful and some sun loungers and parasols reserved for Hotel Marana (you just need tickets from reception) there are some nice beach bars but seem to only open in the day. There is a restaurant open in the evenings, Marinella, which is beautiful but very expensive. We were about to order the lobster tagliatelle which said €35 on the menu, but it was €35 per 100g and weighed 800g so it would have been €280 each for a plate of pasta which is a bit out of budget, ha! The cheapest bottle on the wine list is €70, lovely, but just be aware! The hotel is peaceful and the other guests were all really nice and polite and considerate. Taxis are limited and so expensive. You can walk to Punta Marana to eat but other than that need a taxi or the train from opposite the hotel but they stop at 6.30pm. Visit Porto Rotondo. It’s fabulous. "

"The staff was fantastic "

"It was an amazing stay. We were scared about some of the bad reviews but it was totally the opposite. Every staff were nice and treated us really well. "

"Wonderful property and wonderful people. Close to several good casual restaurants and a couple nice beach clubs. The small pool/spa was great for us. "

"Situated between Olbia and Golfo,so transport needed,however there are beaches in easy walking. Management and staff exceptional. Stress free holiday. "

"We stayed here in Marinella after a week in Pittulongu. This hotel is very traditional with a fabulous friendly feel. Swimming pool large, although in our 3day stay we went to the beach each day. The easy path walk with a very small wooden bridge was less then 10minutes. A shame the restaurants on the beach closed at 5.30pm for food. Not much for choice in Marinella, tried the Trattoria in the small port at awful, they clearly like to make the English unwelcome! Hotel for food was ok & the salad bar was included which was nice. 3 days far enough in this beautiful cove. Blu beach bar funky, pricey but the music could be heard on a he beach which was great."
