Cape Spartivento Hotels

"Very kind and helpful reception and nothing was too much trouble for the staff. A wonderful peaceful oasis near Pula. Thank you"

"This Hilton property located on the southern coast of Sardinia was fantastic. The units are located up the hill and overlook the Med. Sea. The short walk down to the private and staffed beach was always clean and cared for. The room view is amazing and the room clean and spacious. The staff is excellent (and I am not saying that lightly). Across the street is another Hilton property and one has access to their facilities (i.e., Restaurants'/Spa). I got in 3 sessions of tennis with the resort pro/master on the clay courts (very well cared for) during our 7 days. In Chia, which has a remote feel to it, not crowded with views of the mountains to the north, the 'flamingo' lagoon to the east and the sea to the south. We walked up the hill to our unit, but the resort has staff driven carts to get one up or down and over to the beach or the other Hilton Resort. This resort was worth every penny/euro that we spent!"

"With the hotel being a 30 minute walk from the nearest amenities, it needs to have a fantastic beach. Unfortunately the beach very much lets this hotel down, being narrow, covered in seaweed and lined with fences/walls of adjacent houses. There is a nicer beach a short walk away but it feels wasteful to spend €35 on sunbeds that your hotel is providing for free around the corner. On the sunbeds, the hotel really needs to improve the beach beds as they are old and uncushioned. With regards to amenities, the town of Pula has a few decent restaurants. However by far the highlight of our holiday was a meal at Fradis Minoris, a fine dining fish restaurant within walking distance of the hotel. We didn't properly try the hotel restaurant - one night we stopped by for dessert which was disspointing. Now on to the positives. The hotel always feels very quiet despite being fully booked or close to it. Whether you want to spend time at the beach or one of the pools, the sunbeds are always less than 50% occupied. The main pool is the centrepiece of the hotel and is very well kept with beautiful gardens surrounding it. The staff here are always very friendly and made some awesome cocktails with freshly blended fruit. Overall, I didn't think this hotel was great value for money and if i was booking in this area of Sardinia again, I would look 30 mins further south where there is a cluster of world class beaches."

"I enjoyed a stay at Aquadulci with my boyfriend. We were hoping for a laid back relaxing holiday, and this delivered! The pool is stunning, with plenty of sunloungers, no need to 'reserve' one with a towel early morning. Our room was bigger than expected, even with an outside table and chairs. Immaculately clean. The hotel staff were very helpful in booking us taxis and placing a restaurant reservation for us. The hotel restaurant is lovely: excellent breakfast spread, very classy dinner service. There is also a bistro/cafe round the side of the hotel which does tapas style plates for dinner and has an excellent atmosphere. There is a beach nearby- 5 minute walk from the back of the hotel alongside a lake. It's a gorgeous beach, was fairly busy in July, lots of places you can rent a lounger/umbrella for the day for 25-40 euro with beach bar/cafe. We took a surfing lesson from WindWave club. If you are looking for peace and relaxation, this is the hotel for you! If you are looking for an action packed holiday, look elsewhere. The beach is the only thing within walking distance, even getting to another restaurant requires a taxi. We spent one evening in Pula town: 25 minute taxi ride away. Recommend considering car hire if you want to be able to get out and about a bit more. Recommend booking taxi from the airport via the hotel for better prices."

"The hotel food was not to the standard one would expect from a 4 star rating. There is no buffet choice for dinner or lunch. Breakfast buffet is limited to continental and no option for a omelette,poached or fried egg? The hotel website fails to mention details of the dinner which is set course and the quality & quantity limited. The staff do thier best to provide a good service but let down but the food served. The property has a prime private location on the beach but requres you to pay 15 euros per person to use their own deck chairs which is totally unacceptable it should come without any charge. Location is remote without acesss to shops apart from a small shop across tge hotel that is part of a camping site. Recommend hiring a car. The concierge person is very helpful and gave good recommendations of places to enjoy a good meal outside the hotel , but not a taxi can cost between 20 or 80 euros depending on distance. Being our first trip to Sardinia not sure if the food standard is something to expect on the island at typical rated hotels. if so recommend book just bed & breakfast and hire a car to experience foood in nearby Pula or drive into Cagliari were more choice ..recommend the Pith steakhouse if meat lover.
