This property is located on the beach with great vistas. Has several pools but in my opinion they are very shallow. The restaurant does not offer an a la cart menu but rather a fixed meal and was the worst meal experienced for the price. However, the hotel is really nice and the staff are friendly and go out of their way to help.

The property is beautiful. The restaurant waiters are the best!! On the lowlight, the shower’s hot water didn’t properly work, and the beach in front of the hotel was quite dirty. Overall we’d stay again at this hotel, but it’s a little bit overpriced.

Great hotel with limited dining options

Dear iec and staff were great. Just lack breakfast lunch and dinner options. Breakfast could improve with more hot breakfast. Only a buffet lunch available which is very limited. Pool cafe only does sandwiches. Hot food or even French fries would be good. No fresh ice cream either. Dinner is a set menu with limited options. We had no chicken option for the whole week we stayed there. Also there’s only one restaurant in the area so dining is limited. So hotel should give more choices. We had to take at 25 euro taxi each time we wanted to eat in the nearest town. Pool and beach are lovely! Classic room was disappointing as the balcony was really a ground floor terrace which looked on to a big hedge so no sunshine or sky view from room for the money we sprint really expected a better room!

The air conditioning system is older and the thermostat in the room does nothing. We were there during a hot night and had to request a fan. The restaurant is not good at all. They run out of food several times during breakfast and getting a coffee is a chore. You can read other reviews about the dinner service being rude. Definitely not 5 star, OK, but they should adjust their prices.

Very nice stay, would stay again

Overall a perfect stay. Facilities are fantastic staff very professional + serious so at times appear a little unfriendly. Offered access to a room late (1700) on day of check out for showers etc. at no extra cost which was great. Some observations to pick areas not so good: price of onsite items is v-expensive. X2 versus Santa Teresa Gallura in a lot of cases. There is no alternative given the location but I guess this is what happens when you are a captive audience. We didn’t eat at the hotel and opted for one of many restaurants in STG. €20 taxi for a 5 min drive (get the shuttle bus in) negates the extra you would pay for eating in the hotel. Only other point which annoyed me was no water in the room each day. It was 30degrees and I would expect a bottle per person per day. There is water in the mini-bar which you have to pay for.

Uncomfortable Rooms and Scary Maitre D's

I read some of the same problems in other reviews, but didn't believe the, they were right. First let me say that it is a beautiful property. They seem to act like they are a 5-star hotel, but they aren't. We weren't expecting a 5-star either. Some of the staff acts a bit arrogant, very arrogant. Pools are cold, the sea is warmer. The reviews about the rooms smelling bad are correct. You open the door to your room and wow, does it smell horribly musty. The mattresses are rock hard. No comfort whatsoever. Not very inviting. The room was pretty and nicely appointed as well as the bathroom though. Let's talk arrogance. The maitre d's were downright scary. We arrived at the hotel around dinner time and asked the front desk if we needed a reservation for dinner, she assured we didn't. The maitre d' acted like it was such an imposition because we did purchase the dinner plan. He was rude and like I said scary. There were plenty of tables, but he was in a huff having to seat us. Needless to say we decided not to have dinner there again. Until the last night, we decided to give it another go because of convenience. This time they sent us down to the other restaurant because we didn't have the dinner package. Again, the maitre d', a different one, was just as rude and scary as the first one. We just about walked out, we should have! Food and drinks expensive too.

Staff friendly and welcoming. Hotel décor traditional, fresh and clean. Beautiful horizon pools overlooking the clean beach with plenty of sun beds and Lilo's to use. Helpful lifeguards and waiters. Variety of delicious buffet and menu foods. Gorgeous cafe at the other end of the beach with sandwiches and cocktails for lunch at good prices, friendly staff and great views. Plenty of places to explore, hike, hidden beaches, friendly local town. Recommend hiring a decent car for the hilly journey over an hour drive from airport. Credit to Fredderico and Antonio who were wonderful. Thank you

We were very pleasantly surprised by the nice upgrade we got after arrival! We had a wonderful room with the sea view. You really feel like you are in a 5 stars hotel, service is top and location is amazing. From the hotel you can go on hiking to wonderful hidden beaches. A highlight was the privat beach and the beach chair reserved for us. We will definitely come back!

Unfortunately this hotel is not even close to 5 Stars. Our room was very old fashioned, the bed was too hard and the bedding uncomfortable. The shower leaked to the floor, which was annoyingly wet all the time. Mini bar was in poor condition and no SKY TV. Air Con also very poor. The Ala Carte restaurant and Cocktails well overpriced. We only ate there on the first night, very disappointing so didn't go back. Only good thing was the sea/pool view and the staff. They made us feel very welcome and were really helpful. They surprised me with the bottle of bubbly on my special birthday, which was really nice. This hotel needs a big refurbishment if they want to advertise themselves as a 5-Star place.

The location is fantastic and the beach is clean but the forced structure of what time you can eat and where you can eat is a little dissapointing. There is no service by the pool, you MUST sit at the pool bar. No Alcholo apart from Wine/Beer is served with dinner. For anything else you MUST go to the rooftop bar AFTER you have finished dinner There are 2 restuarants on site, and you have no choice in which one you are allocated. to request either option, you have to make a booking prior and it depends on availability. The waiting staff bring your receipts out to sign for the drinks even before you have been given your desert. The food is ok, but gets very samey after a few days, theres only so much pasta, cheese and cold cuts you can eat! It was clean and the amenities were nice, but when you are spending so much time in a resort i would only give it 3 stars It is also clearly catered towards the Swiss/German holiday market and not so much the western European market.
