Beach Hotels in Costa Smeralda, Sardinia

"We had the most wonderful stay at Cala Cuncheddi Hotel! From the moment we arrived, everything felt special. The setting is absolutely breathtaking — especially the sunsets, which were some of the most beautiful we’ve ever seen. The restaurant was a highlight of our trip: not only was the food exceptional every single time, but dining with those stunning views made each meal unforgettable. A very special thank you to Roberto, our server throughout the week. His warm hospitality, attention to detail, and genuine kindness made us feel so welcomed. He truly elevated our experience and made our dinners even more enjoyable. Their private beach is beautiful and so is their pool. We always found spots either at the beach or at the pool. We can’t wait to return to Cala Cuncheddi and relive this perfect combination of great food, beautiful scenery, and exceptional service."

"This hotel was an absolute lifesaver! I arrived last minute, late at night, and the receptionist kindly stayed late just to welcome me and check us in. The location is fantastic—less than a 5-minute walk to the port of Palau. Many of the rooms offer beautiful water views, which was such a nice surprise. It’s a no-frills hotel, but it’s incredibly clean, has air conditioning throughout, and includes breakfast. What really sets it apart is the warm and welcoming staff—they go above and beyond. For the price, this place is a gem!"

"Amazing spot, incredible decoration and service. Could improve breakfast missing tables and drinking glasses and have a more accesible restaurant a la carte. Other than that, all very good. "

"Great hotel for family, nice big pool with different depths to suit levels of ability. Cocktails by the pool were lovely. Bed was comfy, kids loved the sofa bed that popped up into a bunk. Breakfast was great too, lots of choice."

"Very nice property, staff was always very helpful. Beds and pillows weren't the best, but otherwise a very enjoyable stay."

"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 hotel is idyllically located, all of the best shops and hotels are right outside your hotel. The complimentary water boat to the island is absolutely stunning. It was the most peaceful & clean experience. The hotel was very clean , the staff at the pool & beach were so friendly. The service and location are 5 stars, the accommodationis slightly more "

"Perfect "

"The complex is huge, nice surroundings, pool, close to the beach. It was quiet. We were given upgrade with sea view, very well equipped kitchenette. Receptionist didn't speak English, only very basic, nothing was explain to us (breakfast, WiFi) just took us to the room. Bed and mattress were old and not comfy. Rooms would need some TLC. "
