    “Truly superb place to stay!!”

    The hotel is located at the heart of the bustling Palua harbour, and was absolutely great. All members of staff were extremely polite and helpful, and really helped make our stay there truly special. The food and ambience was great, and the daily evening markets were held just in front of the hotel, which was perfectly suited to us. Would definitely recommend this hotel, and can't wait to go back!

    “Excellent hotel”

    Clean comfortable hotel. Decent selection of continental breakfast. Friendly welcoming staff. Excellent location for restaurants and the mariner. Not far from nice beaches.

    “Nice Hotel, but the area and beaches aren't Costa Smeralda”

    This is a nice hotel, with very friendly and helpful staff and a good breakfast buffet. We stayed in a junior suite which was nice and incredibly clean (the cleaning staff were the friendliest we'd ever met). We used the hotel's car park (charged at €12 a day) but there is no other real option to park, and the parking is underground and secure. The hotel misses a swimming pool, as we couldn't find the nearby beach (and most beaches within 10km of the resort are very stony rather than the golden sand of Costa Smeralda). The hotel staff spoken some English, but this wasn't reflected in the resort more generally and we struggled at times. Also beware of some of the nearby restaurants, particularly the pizzeria at the end of the row (Chez Nico or something similar). The service was the worst I've ever had, and have never been treated with such contempt by any other restaurateur! We weren’t alone in our experience and everyone seemed to be treated equally badly. Save your money and go to the restaurant a couple doors down, which has a lovely terrace and very friendly staff, who also speak English.

    Costa Esmeralda, Italy: Playground for the rich, the waters of the Emerald Coast sparkle like the precious jewel, matched only by the diamonds of those who flock here. In the 1960s, the Aga Khan discovered this idyllic 35-mile coastal strip of sandy beaches, studded with 80 bays and idyllic coves, and made it an exclusive private resort. Low-rise buildings blending harmoniously with the landscape and beautiful (free) beaches ensure the coast’s enduring popularity.
