Valtur Sardegna Baia Dei Pini Resort

It is one of the best places I have ever visited

We’ve had a wonderful time at this resort. There is one beautiful big pool and three smaller (infinity) pools. The pools were some of the best I’ve seen. You can see the ocean and it’s just a 3 minute walk to a beautiful beach with shallow waters and clean sand. Also suited for children. Sometimes sea grass wash up to shore, but not troublesome. As the beach is mainly sand, snorkelling is not spectacular, but a 10 minute walk to the rocks on the right (when you are facing the ocean) snorkelling is beautiful in this area. The rooms were fine. Sardinian style decoration and maybe a bit dated, but comfortable and clean. Every room has a nice terras. Also the resort has beautiful landscaping. The bed was fine and we’ve had an extra bed and baby bed put into the room for our kids (baby bed for additional payment). There was a mini fridge. There was animation, but all the information was in Italian. The resort is less fitted for foreign tourist. Reception and bar personal spoke a bit English and German. The food was good. There were 3 main meals in the restaurant. 7.30 till 10 o’clock breakfast with croissants, eggs, sausage, cakes and more. 12.45 till 14.00 lunch with all kinds of salads, pasta, fish and meat. Diner was available from 19.45 p.m. with lots of choice of food en authentic Italian dishes. There was a central bar where coffee/thea, orange juice, Pepsi cola (not light), orange soda was available. There was also a pool bar with some sandwiches, slides of pizza/focaccia and also drinks from tap were available all day. Drinks were a bit minimalistic but okay. Information at arrival was very brief, an information letter would have been nice. We worked out how everything worked during the week. Beach towels were available at the reception. Budoni was a walk of 10 minutes I estimate, with restaurants and bars. I would recommend a car rental (Leasys, at the airport of Olbia was very good), because there is not much public transport. Sardinia is a very, very beautiful place with stunning bays and mountains, with lots of trees. We were surprised with the beauty of the island.

Family hotel with good food and animation, wonderful pool, beach and sea!
