“A truly unforgettable family stay that gave us exactly what we came for”
LikedOur stay at Baglioni Resort Sardinia was an absolute dream. We had one main goal for this part of our holiday: to completely relax, recharge and enjoy some quality time together as a family. Baglioni truly delivered. We were also blessed with beautiful weather throughout our stay, which made an already incredible experience even better. The resort itself is beautifully designed and laid out. The three swimming pools are fantastic and cater for different swimming abilities, which was perfect for us travelling with young children. There are plenty of sunbeds surrounding the pools, many with gazebo-style covers that provide shade. We particularly loved the adjustable shade on the sunbeds that could be positioned to keep the sun out of your eyes while still enjoying the beautiful weather. The pool team were exceptional throughout our stay. They were always attentive, providing fresh towels and complimentary cans of still or sparkling water and making sure we had everything we needed without ever being intrusive. One of the biggest highlights is the resort's connection to Lu Impostu Beach, which is easily one of the most beautiful beaches we visited in Sardinia. The water was crystal clear, calm and absolutely stunning. The hotel has its own private beach area with sunbeds, towels and water available throughout the day. Although it's only around a five-minute walk, the hotel also provides a golf cart drop-off and collection service, which was incredibly convenient when travelling with children. Breakfast was another highlight. There was a great variety of fresh savoury options, breads and spreads, hot food and freshly cooked eggs. More importantly, breakfast never felt rushed. You could sit, relax and enjoy your morning while being genuinely looked after by the team. A very special mention has to go to Emanuel, who looked after us during breakfast. His level of attentiveness was exceptional.
DislikedThere was honestly very little we didn't like about our stay. These aren't criticisms of the hotel, but a couple of things we think are worth knowing before you visit. The main one is location. The beautiful, secluded setting is a big part of what makes Baglioni so relaxing, but it does mean that having a hire car is highly recommended. Taxis aren't particularly easy to access and there isn't much within walking distance of the resort. If you want to explore the surrounding area or head out for dinner, having your own car makes a huge difference. The other thing to be aware of is the dining. The hotel's restaurant is focused on a high-end fine-dining experience, so if you're simply looking for a casual pizza, traditional pasta or an easy family meal, the options within the resort are quite limited. We found having a car particularly useful for this reason, as it gave us the flexibility to head into nearby towns for more casual dining. Neither of these things took away from our experience at all, and we would absolutely stay again. They're simply things we think are useful to know when planning your stay, particularly if you're travelling with young children.
