Good day! I rarely leave reviews, but this time I decided to be as detailed as possible. We decided for a long time to go to this place despite the large number of negative reviews, we went for the sake of the sea and a good company of friends who still rest there. All the negative reviews about this hotel turned out to be pure TRUTH, even the most banal one with drinking water, and if you can close your eyes to the rooms, you won’t die of hunger, but the sea is a complete disappointment - muddy water with algae and floating varieties of algae resembling horse go-but does not leave the thought that all the horses of Sardinia managed there. … More ▾ Good day!

All the negative reviews about this hotel turned out to be pure TRUTH, even the most banal one with drinking water, and if you can close your eyes to the rooms, you won’t die of hunger, but the sea is a complete disappointment - muddy water with algae and floating varieties of algae resembling horse go-but does not leave the thought that all the horses of Sardinia managed there. For the entire week-long vacation on our beach, they swam once, and then immediately upon arrival, and that's it.
If you bought and there is time to change your mind, you still have time! The rooms in general are not bad, we lived in the main building, except for the air conditioners, I didn’t immediately understand that it was an air conditioner, more like a heating radiator - a terrible thing rotten inside exuding an unpleasant smell and the room was constantly damp, tried not to use it. The restaurant is disgusting the same thing every day, meager variety, no soups. There is really not enough food, everything is sorted out instantly. The story with the restaurant by the sea, and for barbecue, in general, is a complete divorce, they thought there was meat to eat, but in the end they gave one grilled sausage and that's it !!! ! The contingent of the hotel is mostly Italian pensioners who are over 60. The only positive thing about this hotel is the staff who are trying their best to smooth out all this crap, friendly and helpful and generally positive guys.
What to do if you have already bought - Take with you more money, about the same amount you spend on this ticket and this is not a joke. It’s a lost vacation without a car, it’s also a problem with renting a car, you can rent it on the territory if it’s still available and twice as expensive, in the area up to Oristano it’s a big problem we had to go to the airport to get a car, so don’t be lazy and book a car in advance at airport and immediately go to the hotel by car, half an hour drive will not get lost. Only the presence of a car will allow you to travel along normal beaches and try the local cuisine and drive to the supermarket and somehow diversify the evenings for pensioners. You can negotiate and go to other beaches by taxi, ideally with someone to cooperate with. Be sure to take mosquito repellant in the evenings, they seize, after all, there is a forest around.

DO NOT GO, THE HOTEL IS HORRIBLE! We went together on the "share" TEZ tour. To say we were disappointed is an understatement.

We went together on the "share" TEZ tour. To say we were disappointed is an understatement. After studying the hotel's website and reviews (fresh ones are all positive, a lot of bad old ones), we decided that such a luxurious four-star hotel for such money is an incredible chance. As it turned out later - all the photos on the site are a hoax, the hotel does not even reach 3 stars, and the service is at the level of Russian resorts.

After sitting for 4 hours in the smallest and cramped plane, then on the bus for almost an hour, waiting for something incomprehensible, we spent another hour on the road. Upon arrival (already at one in the morning), like the rest of the time, the hotel met with a strong smell, sorry, shit, so strong and sharp that it hit the nose and later woke up from it at night. This smell persists throughout the hotel, including on the beach and when you swim in the sea, it feels like you are swimming in the sewer.
As we were told, this is due to the numerous cow farms nearby.
We settled in the room of this "four-star" hotel - the Standard room is small, empty, dirty, ants crawl everywhere, the door to the toilet does not slam shut, the ventilation rattles deafeningly, the shower doors jam and do not close, there is nowhere to dry clothes. The next day, we were turned off the water for a day, not to wash, not to wash, not to go to the toilet. At the reception, the Russian-speaking concierge politely sends and recommends to put up. In exchange for a similar room, where everything works, or for a better room with a surcharge, we were refused. We were even refused a DRYER for clothes, they said it was not allowed. As a result, half the time we spent there - a technician ran back and forth to us and tried to fix at least something, until a Tez tour employee from Moscow helped us and agreed to change to a better room, while we were told several times in person that "It's impossible, everything is busy"). The new room was not much better, but at least with water and a small balcony.
The hotel staff basically speaks only Italian, even knowing the words in English. Seeing the Russians, they shoot at each other with sidelong glances, look at you with disgust and talk about it with each other.

The beach at the hotel is small (it is impossible to be on a wild beach) the sunbeds are all old, cheap and uncomfortable, the water is dirty, covered in algae like coffee grounds. You can walk on occasion to the buoys on foot - the water will be up to the waist. And of course, the smell of shit all over the place.
Closer to the buoys - the water and the bottom are relatively clean.

The animation at the hotel seems to be good, entertainment for the whole day, but it is only in Italian and for Italians, there are no Russians in this hotel.

Tomorrow at the hotel is tasteless, it is impossible to drink coffee, severe heartburn from baking. Lunch and dinner are even more or less, but they specifically remove all drinks and leave only water and wine, so that people would buy everything at the bar.
Soft all inclusive - a very dubious thing, for it you get: tap water, diluted powder in water ("soda"), yesterday's cold instant coffee and snacks to throw away from yesterday's dinner (baked from the leftovers of lunch), which in the morning lie uncovered in the sun.
Instead of lunch, you can sign up and take a "barbecue" by the beach: chicken fillet fried on an electric grill. It's all. After that, until the next morning, our stomachs ached.
Instead of dinner, you can sign up for a pizzeria - went three times, really liked it.
After dinner at the hotel on the day of departure, they got poisoned (perhaps the food was poorly washed, vegetables and potatoes crunched as if in the sand, maybe something else), after arrival they lay at home for about a week without leaving the toilet.

Horses were almost never seen in the hotel, especially when they were stroked.

Nearby there is a city in which, apart from one store, there is nothing interesting. There is a flamingo lake - getting on bikes in the heat is decent, not worth it.
Visitors to the hotel - mostly Italians and Germans retired. I used to have a better opinion about Italians - they are so noisy that two tables in a restaurant are enough to not hear each other. Standing at the door to chat and at the food at the buffet is in the order of things for them.
It was impossible to relax on the beach because of their noise. A little freaked out when they came and literally began to sit on our heads. Noisy, uncultured and arrogant.

In general, they were very dissatisfied. It's a pity for people who give $ 1100 for this.
No more foot in Sardinia after such a "luxury" hotel.

I would like to tell you about this hotel, because there are few reviews, and its budget price is very tempting and embarrassing at the same time.
I hope my review will be useful to someone!
The tour was bought in the month of March (the super discount was very captivating))) and despite the negative reviews, we decided to fly anyway.
The tour operator was Tez Tour, we were warned in advance that the hotel is not great and is located far from the city, in a quiet wilderness)) Therefore, I have no complaints about organizing the tour)) We were warned about everything in advance. In general, in upset feelings and with
hoping for the best, we flew to Sardinia.
On the flight, everything is OK (a / c "Nord Star" without delay, takeoff / landing). After about 4.5 hours we were in Sardinia.
We arrived at the beginning of June, the weather was great + 30 degrees! Although just a couple of days before arrival, there was no such heat yet and it was raining.
The island itself is quite big! There is something to see and where to stay, you can travel around the island by car / train - in general, return to Sardinia
at least 2 more times is just necessary)))
First, I'll tell you about the hotel (I'll try to judge with an open mind), then about the island and my impressions.
The hotel area is very large! The main plus is the forest! Fresh and clean air, birds chirping. . . The hotel consists of: 2 main buildings (reception is located in one of them) + several bungalows around. Something like a mini
village) The staff tries, cuts trees and shrubs, cleans and tidies up.
There is a modest playground (a couple of swings). Bar on the beach, cafe-bar next to the checkpoint. Main restaurant, pizzeria (2nd floor of the main restaurant), cafe-bar on the beach.
The number we got was apparently very cool or we were just lucky (judging by the reviews that I found, which described some kind of wild Spartan conditions)
Main building, 2nd floor, to the right of the reception, with a large balcony, plasma TV, furniture is not new (but did not crumble from passion)). Everything is clean and neat. Cleaning was daily on a solid 4+ (the floors were never washed). The shower stall is clean.
In terms of food - everything is very tasty! Various types of meat, fish, seafood, pastas, vegetables. Of the desserts, only two types of pastries. In general, you will not die of hunger! ). Next to the hotel, across from the parking lot, is the Saloon, a western-style town. There are also 2 shops: one with souvenirs, the other with clothes. And the most important building is the bar. In the evenings (on weekends) there are various shows with songs and dances. There are also stables. You can ride horses. And in general, the equestrian sports center, which is located in the hotel, is one of the largest in Europe.
The beach is a separate issue. Algae is scattered everywhere, but they are removed daily. Due to the fact that the Arborea area is located in the bay, the water temperature is certainly warmer, but everything else (algae, etc. ) is washed onto our beach. Therefore, you most likely will not be able to enjoy crystal clear.
Since the hotel is on the outskirts, there is not much to go to. You are just like cut off from civilization))).
But every other day we rode in Oristano, and from there we traveled by train to other cities. Half an hour walk to the bus stop.
Let's summarize)
The hotel is good. Yes, he is far away. Yes, it's not new. Yes, it can be boring. From personal impressions: be sure to visit the capital of Cagliari, the town of Oristano (near.
city ​ ​ from our hotel), a very small village of Arborea. Beautiful views, you can feel the whole flavor of Sardinia!
I advise you to take a map of each city and see all the sights, but in Cagliari you can do some good shopping!
I heard that there is an outlet not far from Karjari, but unfortunately we did not have time to get there.
How to get somewhere from our wonderful hotel? )
The bus schedule is at the reception in the hotel or at the checkpoint next to the restaurant. (be sure to take)
We leave the hotel, go straight along the road until we get to the highway, there will be a water tower on the left, next to it there is a “stop”. You just stand next to the cafe and wait for your bus on time. Hurry up to catch your bus! It stops 1) if you wave 2) or if someone
you have to get off and the bus stops. The fare is 3 euros (if you buy at the box office, at the station - 1.50 euros)
Then you arrive at the bus station in Oristano and from there, you can find out the timetable in Cagliari and other cities. Buy tickets in advance!
The trains are all neat, the seats are clean, it's nice to sit and enjoy the ride.
Have a good holiday everyone!
The main thing with what mood you fly to rest!
