Where to Stay in Sardinia?

Huw Nurse • 3 February 2025

We have been visiting, reviewing, and evaluating Hotels in Sardinia for many years from hotels ideal for couples, for families, spa breaks, beachside retreats and many more! This blog shares with you our insights into our top selling hotels in Sardinia, what they have to offer and the reasons behind our recommendations.

Huw and Alison are the founders of Just Sardinia and have been lucky enough to travel round the island many times, searching for hotels that we think will suit our customers - you only have to look at our reviews to see that we think we are getting it right! 


Below are a some of the hotels we recommend for a holiday in Sardinia:

Which are the best hotels in Sardinia? 

La Villa del Re is situated 3km from Costa Rei,

Hotel Capo d'Orso Thalasso & Spa

Hotel Capo d'Orso Thalasso & Spa is a highly recommended 5 star hotel with a relaxed atmosphere in a truly romantic setting with guests, young and old, returning year after year. It is the perfect choice for a special occasion, anniversary, or honeymoon. We first featured the Capo d’Orso in 2000 when Just Sardinia was founded and it has gone from strength to strength, a real gem on the northeast coast.

Club Hotel Baia Sardinia

This classic Sardinian hotel with stunning sea views is situated right on the beautiful beach in Baia Sardinia.

The rooms are typical Sardinian style and would recommend upgrading to a sea view room to make the most of the stunning outlook. There is no pool but the sea in front of the hotel is very clear turquoise, ideal for swimming and snorkelling.

We think the Club hotel Miramare Restaurant is one of the best restaurants on the island with stunning views and definitely the best Matre’d.

Club Hotel Baia Sardinia

Forte Village

For over 20 years Forte Village Resort has held the title of World's Leading Resort and it is not difficult to see why!

We are delighted to feature this all-encompassing resort offering more choice than any other with three 4 star hotels, four 5 star hotels, 5 star luxury suites, sumptuous private villas, over 20 differently themed restaurants, 10 swimming pools including an Aquapark, superb complimentary Mini Club and huge children's play area with shallow lagoon, many different sporting activities, academies and entertainments, all set in an unique park-like setting fronted by a beautiful white sandy beach.

Forte Village will suit young and old, couples, multigenerational families and groups of friends for a holiday that you can tailor make to your own requirements - the choice is all yours.

For the last few years we always try and grab a long weekend at Forte Village in September or October which is a great time to visit - we love all the sports available and have recently been introduced to Padel one of the fastest growing sports in the world!

Oasis Pool Forte Village Sardinia

Resort Cala di Falco

Part of the Delphina group of hotels, this is a very popular good value resort suitable for families, couples and friends alike in an ideal location opposite the beach and just a short walk into town. Here you can relax by the pool, stroll over the road to the beach, eat in the hotel restaurant and enjoy a drink with wonderful views over the pool to the sea beyond.

Being situated close to the local town and port of Cannigione, don't miss the opportunity to hire a boat or take a boat trip out to the stunning Maddalena islands, ideal for swimming and snorkelling in clear turquoise sea.

We would say this is one of the best locations for guests looking for easy access to the local town and beaches - but don't miss the opportunity of visiting the beautiful Mannena beach by shuttle service.

Resort Cala Di Falco, Cannigione Sardinia

Hotel Lantana

This small, family run hotel and residence has proved to be extremely popular with our guests offering flexibility with a choice of Standard or Superior hotel rooms and 1 or 2 bedroom apartments.

Here you can simply relax and unwind in the peace and tranquillity of the attractive gardens or choose to explore the local area. The hotel can arrange trips and excursions to experience the charm and history of the island, including the nearby archaeological site at Nora.

Hotel Lantana, Pula Sardinia

Hotel & RESIDENCE Oasis

In our experience, the Oasis provides all the ingredients for a successful family holiday and is very good value for money. Not only does it provide many facilities, children will love the pools, it is also close to the beach and colourful town of Alghero.

Surrounded by attractive gardens, the Oasis is a well-established and well-kept hotel and residence with a great holiday atmosphere. It is about a 15 to 20 min walk along the lido to the old town of Alghero, a charming old Catalan town often referred to as the Coral Riviera, nestled into the north west Sardinian coastline with wonderful views over the bay to the dramatic cliffs at Capo Caccia. The old walled town, within the ancient ramparts and lookout towers, has a lively atmosphere with a good selection of shops, café bars and restaurants. It has an interesting history to discover manifested in its well-preserved architecture.

Abi d'Oru Beach Hotel & Spa

We have watched this hotel grow over many years and now with our old friend Nicola at the helm, its getting better and better!

This resort style hotel is suitable for families and couples and stands in manicured gardens with a lake, pool and beautiful beach with gently shelving turquoise sea.

The hotel is well designed with most of the rooms, restaurant and bar enjoying superb sea views and situated within 100m of the pool and beach.

Su Gologone Experience Hotel

This hotel is ideal to get away from it all and have a relaxing holiday in the Sardinian countryside.

The rooms and suites are different from anywhere you will have been before, individually designed using traditional furniture, local soft furnishings and Sardinian art. The food and service represent true Sardinian taste and culture.

Guests come from all over the world to the Su Gologone to experience a really different style of holiday surrounded by local art and traditions, unspoilt nature and dramatic mountain scenery that can be appreciated either from relaxing in the hotel or by trekking expeditions.

We would recommend that you hire a car so you can explore the local area - a must do is a day trip to hill side town of Baunei and then to the sea side village of Santa Maria Navarrese following the SS125 mountain road from the Su Gologone which is a spectacular scenic drive.  For more information click here >

Su Gologone Experience Hotel

Hotel La Funtana, Adult Only

Hotel La Funtana has always proved very popular with our guests being a good value for money bed and breakfast with modern accommodation and, in my opinion having stayed there several times, very well situated for a touring or beach holiday.

Santa Teresa has a central piazza, ideal for watching the world go by whilst enjoying a delicious gelato (ice cream) or an authentic espresso or cappuccino.

The town beach (reached via a steep hill) and the beaches at Capo Testa (approximately 3km) are some of the best on the island. There are stunning coastal walks with views to Corsica and the Valley of the Moon with amazing rock formations to explore.

Ferries to Corsica leave from the port (taking approximately 50 mins) as do boat trips to La Maddalena islands and marine nature reserve,  both well worth visiting.

Hotel La Funtana, Adult Only, Santa Teresa, Sardinia

Gabbiano Azzurro Hotel

Gabbiano Azzurro Hotel & Suites is a great family run hotel on a stunning beach location, 21km from Olbia Airport, which has been beautifully refurbished to now feature stunning Luxury Pool Suites. With friendly service, excellent restaurant and panoramic views and sunsets, it will appeal to both couples and families.  There is a pool with shallow area for children and the white sandy beach has amazing clear turquoise sea gently shelving and shallow for a long way out.

This is an excellent base to explore the local area with great walks on the Golfo Aranci headland of Capo Figari, beautiful coves to explore along the peninsular, dolphin spotting trips and it is also possible to visit Porto Rotondo and the Costa Smeralda.

As Owners and Managing Directors of the company, we have a passion for travel and of course Sardinia. We love the Gallura region in north east Sardinia with amazing granite rock formations and wonderful small coves, but most of all the spectacular turquoise sea. Our family have holidayed at Villa L’Arco for many years - we all love getting away from it all yet embracing the local lifestyle!

What about other tracking technologies, like web beacons?

Cookies are not the only way to recognize or track visitors to a website. We may use other, similar technologies from time to time, like web beacons (sometimes called "tracking pixels" or "clear gifs"). These are tiny graphics files that contain a unique identifier that enables us to recognize when someone has visited our Website or opened an email including them. This allows us, for example, to monitor the traffic patterns of users from one page within a website to another, to deliver or communicate with cookies, to understand whether you have come to the website from an online advertisement displayed on a third-party website, to improve site performance, and to measure the success of email marketing campaigns. In many instances, these technologies are reliant on cookies to function properly, and so declining cookies will impair their functioning.

Do you use Flash cookies or Local Shared Objects?

Websites may also use so-called "Flash Cookies" (also known as Local Shared Objects or "LSOs") to, among other things, collect and store information about your use of our services, fraud prevention, and for other site operations.

If you do not want Flash Cookies stored on your computer, you can adjust the settings of your Flash player to block Flash Cookies storage using the tools contained in the Website Storage Settings Panel. You can also control Flash Cookies by going to the Global Storage Settings Panel and following the instructions (which may include instructions that explain, for example, how to delete existing Flash Cookies (referred to "information" on the Macromedia site), how to prevent Flash LSOs from being placed on your computer without your being asked, and (for Flash Player 8 and later) how to block Flash Cookies that are not being delivered by the operator of the page you are on at the time).

Please note that setting the Flash Player to restrict or limit acceptance of Flash Cookies may reduce or impede the functionality of some Flash applications, including, potentially, Flash applications used in connection with our services or online content.

Do you serve targeted advertising?

Third parties may serve cookies on your computer or mobile device to serve advertising through our Website. These companies may use information about your visits to this and other websites in order to provide relevant advertisements about goods and services that you may be interested in. They may also employ technology that is used to measure the effectiveness of advertisements. They can accomplish this by using cookies or web beacons to collect information about your visits to this and other sites in order to provide relevant advertisements about goods and services of potential interest to you. The information collected through this process does not enable us or them to identify your name, contact details, or other details that directly identify you unless you choose to provide these.

How often will you update this Cookie Policy?
