Walking into town was easy and very close. great location. the breakfast spread was outstanding. The food overall was great. Staff and service was also outstanding. We would definitely come back to stay.

We enjoyed 2 nights here. The front desk staff was fantastic. We liked the private resort which had amazing grounds including pools, and the beach/rocks. The pool/beach chair scenario is very undesireable. They ask you not "save" chairs but everyones gets up at the crack of dawn and goes down to throw their stuff on chairs and then proceed to leave for hours. We just went to the beach and put our towels in the sand, or on a portable chair if available when we were ready to get in the sun. We ate at the restaurant across the street and had a blast. You can also walk up the hill and down the street to get to main Baja area of shops and restaurants. All very close!

I loved the atmosphere of the ocean and the scenery. Did not like that they only give you one beach towel for the entire stay. The beach restaurant had very LITTLE choices 3 salads from 12:30-2 then ONLY frozen pizza rest of the day. No service at the pool side to get drinks, food. Nothing going on on the property. Very quiet and felt like i was on a retirement property!

Relaxing and Remote

Had a very nice stay at the hotel with friends Alas, the weather was pretty poor, which did impact our four day break The rooms are a very high standard The area around the pool suffers from not having enough space for sun beds, but the position means that there is not a great deal of outside space The main hotel restaurant is not good value for money, however the pizza restaurant is brilliant The downside of staying at the Ma&Ma is it is not easy to get to town, the hotel could do with offering a shuttle service, it would make the experience that much better, as there are lots of good restaurants in town In summary, a great stay, not perfect, but I was not disappointed. I would stay again if a shuttle service was provided, as that opens up the choice of restaurants as parking the hire car in town is not easy, plus you can’t drink and drive

Beautiful Sardinia.

Our stay at The Gand Hotel Sameldra was a wonderful experience. The staff throughout the hotel were fantastic. They were very friendly, willing to go the extra mile to make our stay more comfortable and enjoyable. The breakfast was great. The choices one had were excellent. The evening meals were delicious, except for one evening. We ordered the suckling pig. It was cold and very little meat on it. We sent it back and they sorted it and we had the lamb chops, which were delicious. The bar staff were lovely. Especially Francesia making brilliant cocktails and Maria Antonette so professional patient and taking care of the guests with such care. Then the food service staff and the service staff on linen cleaning the bedrooms. Again so professional hard working. All with a smile. Lastly the staff were lovely too at reception. our gratitude to all of you who made our stay at the Hotel Sameldra a wonderful memorable one. Thank you! Room 339. Highly recommended!

Dated but nice facility on the ocean with nice views. Rooms are ok but they need to improve the beds and pillows. Pillow was thin like a towel. Breakfast buffet is below average. Food quality is below average and some staff not friendly and do not look happy they work there. The restaurants have very limited food offerings. Not much seafood and pasta is below average. Prices are way too high but the nice situated hotels helps to improve the stay. Prices are way too high for rooms in high season.

This is a beautiful, if slightly dated, property. Staff and decor are austere but helpful. Rooms are dated and the mattresses/pillows are uncomfortable. But the location, beachfront, pools and view easily accommodate for all of this.

My husband and I stayed five days at the Grand Smeralda. It was a gorgeous hotel and property overlooking the ocean and pool. Breakfast was just fantastic. Location was a great launching point to take our day trips up and down the coast to see the site. The restaurants all around the area are all delicious. Definitely need a car. Would have loved a more updated open air restaurant at the Pagoda. We never went there for lunch or dinner because it seemed a bit outdated and old-fashioned. We did enjoy a delicious lunch at the pool bar. There are also very strict lunch and dinner hours. We missed lunch once and so we had to starve until dinner time. A big plus is the private beach that is so easy to walk down to and enjoy your lounge, chairs and umbrellas with the beautiful ocean and scenery. The gardens are gorgeous and so is the hotel decor. and we loved the piano man in the bar in the evening. So talented! thank you for a great day Grand Smeralda!
