Staff amazing. Pool not accessible for disabled people or elders. That is my case and will put me off returning in the future unless is fixed. Also, the water is cold. Only two negatives among plenty of positives. Other than those, amazing place, amazing food, amazing staff. My room 115 was well equipes and with a lovely outdoors space to chillax. Thank you all for a fantastic time.

I wish there was a path from the hotel to the beach walkway instead of walking on the grass. The hotel restaurant mainly served fish, wish there were more options for those who don’t eat fish. Free public restrooms on the beach would make it convenient instead of having to go back to the hotel. Beside these “desired improvements “ the hotel was great, very clean and beautiful, spacious rooms. Staff was amazing!

The best thing was the staff. Everyone, EVERYONE, was friendly, nice and helpful. The restaurant staff especially. But also the front desk. The food at the restaurant was generally very good! The room was only ok, and no amenities. The private beach was disappointing.

Well located but lacking in atmosphere
Very comfortable bedrooms. Lovely beds and linen. Bathroom is very spacious with good powerful shower and small bath. The whole place is spotlessly clean. The food is good, especially dinner which was comparably good value for money. Breakfast is a simple buffet but sufficient. The restaurant is lacking in atmosphere - bright lighting and no music. There is no real bar area and the seating in reception is not particularly comfortable or inviting. We visited just out of season in early October so the hotel was quiet with very little atmosphere. The staff were lovely, helpful and friendly. The hotel is ok but could be much improved with a little more atmosphere and better seating and lighting in the lobby/ 'bar' area.

Nice hotel close to beach.
Great room , pool and beach access. However.... Breakfast was poor and had too many tinned fruits, dry pastries limited choices. Coffee was good. There is a problem with wasps near pool and this prevents food being served by pool. Restaurant waiters were very good. But the evening meals were below average for Italy. And not cheap. Two modest restaurants in the village 10 minutes walk away offer good , fresh and simple dishes at great prices. And Porto Rotondo which is lovely offers a great choice and it’s 10 minutes by car.

Excellent value for money
Very comfortable with large, spacious rooms and a nice balcony. Very good value for the price. Staff were very charming and helpful at all times. Close to a private beach. Only downsides were the breakfast was rather limited for choice and the hotel is basically in the middle of no-where. There is nowhere to eat or drink within easy walking distance - we had a car so it wasn't a problem but if you did not have your own transport your options would be very limited.

Wonderful Hotel
The hotel is very updated and clean. The people who work there are very nice as well. It's a bit expensive and a gravel road walk to the beach. If you are alone it's a bit out of the way. Also bring everything you need as there isn't a store to buy suntan lotion or cigarettes if you need them. There is a store to walk and know the taxis during August are quite overpriced and they don't take credit cards.

Very smart,clean and modern
We stayed at the Marana for 6 nights and had a thoroughly enjoyable time. The staff were professional, attentive and above all friendly with nothing being too much trouble. The Hotel seems very new as it was immaculate. I booked a garden suite but I think it was upgraded to a junior with a lovely view of the pool and garden ( I had contacted the hotel direct as it was my girlfriends **th (!) birthday ).The beach ( although not the prettiest in the world is free to Hotel guests whereas some public beaches charge 40 eu pp per day for loungers) is just 5 minutes walk. We did not eat at the restaurant as we had a car (free, underground (cool) parking) and wanted to explore but other guests told us that it was excellent. If I were being tortured to find a negative, it would be that the room did not have a kettle (personal and petty maybe, but nice to have the freedom). The pluses are numerous but it is the little things that count - notwithstanding all of the above - we had a late flight and had to check out at 12 but the hotel have a facility whereby you can store your luggage till needed and made available a room with a shower, etc to change when needed (no charge, just book). All in all I would recommend this hotel very highly and have no hesitation in returning. A fantastic location for exploring (beautiful Porto Rotondo just 5 minutes drive). The local Marina of Marinella is very quiet but has a couple of lovely restaurants.

Close to the beach
Hotel located close to a beautiful beach, sun decks & umbrella were provided by the hotel. We were welcomed by very helpful and friendly staff who were always smiling and it was pleasant to talk to them. Our room was nice but it had no balcony. It wasn't very spacious but we did not mind as we weren't spending there loads of time. It had a safe which did not work when we came but the hotel staff was very efficient to fix it. The bathroom was nice with a spacious jaccuzzi bath, towels were changed every day. However, being rated at 4 stars we were expecting our beach towels to be changed every day but we were only allowed to change them every 3 days. With no balcony to hang it to dry out we were forced to use our own towels too. Breakfast was good, variety of pastries, eggs, ham and cheese as well as fruit. We did not have dinner included so can not comment on it. Drinks were a bit expensive, simple gin & tonic was 12 euros. But considering we went in July, everything in Sardinia is a bit overpriced. Also if you are staying here you need a car. It's 2 min walk from Marinella train station with services to Olbia & Golfo Aranci but that's about it. There are 3 restaurants in Marinella bay to have a dinner though. Otherwise you need to drive everywhere. All in all a good experience but in my opinion not worth the money they ask for a room.

Excellent hotel, very comfortable
A lovely hotel, we really enjoyed our stay. The room was very comfortable, clean and modern. We had a nice balcony overlooking the pool and grounds. The hotel is in a quiet area, but close enough to Porto Rotondo and Golfo Aranci by car. The beach is a few minutes walk from the hotel. Friendly staff.

Amazing pool area
The pool area was amazing. The pool itself was perfect for the kids and us and the sun deck had plenty of space. No need to “reserve” sun beds with your towel, you could always find beds and a good spot. The staff was friendly and they also managed to clean our room while we were having breakfast (positive thing). The only downside was the lack of food for the kids at the dinner buffet. Some pizza slices and plain pasta would have made a big difference for our kids.

Nice staffs, clean room, private beach!
Thank you for the kind staff despite the late check-in. The room was clean and the bathroom was spacious and also clean. The large washbasin was convenient to use, and the terrace was good to chill or drying towels and swimsuits. The dining place for breakfast was beautiful and the swimming pool was great too. The swimming pool has no time limit, so you can swim at night. (There are a lot of bugs floating because of the light though.) There is a beautiful private beach (2 minutes walking distance) that you can use umbrella and beach chairs for free. It was a satisfying and wonderful experience. One thing I didn't love was water. We used shower filter that we brought, and it turned very dark in one day.

Bad value/money ration
We booked for 2020 and to get a refund was an absolute nightmare (Covid peak!). Anyway, we finally stayed at the hotel in 2021. Rooms are okay, breakfast buffet without any variation and very basic (we stayed 10 days so a slight variation would have been nice). The hotel has a small piece of the beach (approx 5min walk) and is in the second row which is a pain if with kids as you’re too far away from the water in order to supervise the kids while playing). Value/money not good in my opinion.

Excellent séjour
Nous avons passé un séjour merveilleux. Nous avions une chambre au rez-de-chaussée avec accès direct à la piscine et à la plage. Le personnel est très sympathique réactif et à L’écoute. Excellent petit déjeuner sous forme de buffet. Le seul bémol serait le prix du repas du soir. C’est aussi un buffet et que nous avons trouvé un peu élevé.
