Hotels with Swimming Pool in Eden Rock, Domus de Maria

"quiet and nice"

"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.
