Unfortunately I only give it a four star because of the service we received from a couple of the staff. Some staff were very miserable no matter how nice you were to them. Also we had all our luggage stolen in Pisa just before our flight to Sardinia and once we arrived to the hotel at midnight with no belongings or bags, not one person during our 12 day stay there had offered us assistance or a discount on something, or a credit to the spa for what we had been through. Coming from Canada and our dollar being so weak, we paid so much for 11 night stay here, the least they could have done was offer even a dinner for one night. The beds were very uncomfortable and the pillows were hard. The rooms are extremely small for three people. We had an ocean view but blocked by a palm tree, still very nice. The hotel is not big at all, but close to Villasimius so you can go there to shop and try different restaurants. Now onto the good, the hotel is very clean, and the garden to the beach is well kept and pretty. The beach is beautiful, warm water, white sand, and no rocks. Sardinia is a stunning island, I guess you pay high to stay directly on the beach, but well worth it.
