로마치노, 어 벨몬드 호텔, 코스타 스메랄다

We have been staying in this hotel for 20 years and the last two years the management is awful. This year one of the rooms that was given to us was below the public toilet. Which was never addressed and they told us there is nothing we can do. General manager was not helpful either. Concierge team cannot fulfil the аneeds in timely manner as well (taxi, bringing water, etc)

Spectacular views, beautiful beach and sublime service. The old rooms are a dated, but have some Sardinian touches. The new rooms are modern and luxurious, but could be anywhere in the world.

We were deciding between the Romazzino and even pricier Hotel Cala di Volpe. After speaking with the hotel directly (we have stayed at Belmond properties prior and they were very accommodating to us as return guests) and knowing that Belmond had overtaken operations we decided to stay at Romazzino (Premium room with sea view). You will not be disappointed with the service at this hotel. The server to guest ratio at the hotel's restaurants feels like it's 2 servers for every single guest. Our room was no renovated but not super dated. We had a nice balcony, large comfortable king bed (enough pillows to open a pillow store), TV, multiple closets, large separate bathroom which is where I will recommend a renovation to include a separate shower vs. a tub with a large rain shower head and single glass pane which afforded no real space to shower in and the water spraying out everywhere. Water temperature was perfect and plenty of pressure. We opted for the half board which allowed us to eat at the beachside grill restaurant for lunch, and the upstairs restaurant hotel side for breakfast and dinner. I thought half board was good since some days we would get out early for activities and be back for dinner while others we would be present for lunch and out for dinner. My wife and I enjoyed all the grilled snapper and freshly made pizzas. Breakfast on half board you chose from freshly made options and could enjoy the buffet as well. The service on the beach was excellent, servers come by during the day with small snacks to cool you off, you just have to flag down a waiter to ask for drinks/snacks. They literally came over and raked the beach in front of us as well (we didn't ask, they were just cleaning during downtime). On resort water activities are booked through the concierge for yacht charters and the on-site crew at the dock for watersports. I booked a yacht charter through the concierge and they were extremely helpful and I had received a negotiated rate at one vendor better than I could find myself. We didn't really use the pools since we came here for the coast, but they looked nice, were not freezing, and usually had only a couple of people by them. We also didn't enter the kids club as we went just as a couple without a young child. We also didn't use the gym which looked brand new since we went on a bunch of hikes around the area (highly recommend you hike to the beaches nearby). Separately from this specific hotel, I will say that Sardinia in the summer is very expensive at the restaurants, taxis (from the hotel to dinner expect 50-70 euros each way depending where you go, they take a credit card and are all large air conditioned Mercedes vans), shop purchases (high end retail). Mixed cocktails at Romazzino expect 40 euros each (it would be nice if this were a more reasonable 25 per drink), Cala di Volpe were actually cheaper at about 30 euros each (still expensive), beer and wine is a normal charge.
