This hotel deserves a 5 star. The staff made us feel at home with their professionalism and warm hospitality. They go above and beyond for their guest. The breakfast was delicious, rooms are immaculately clean, we stayed at the junior suite and we had our own jacuzzi. This is the place to relax, and you can hear the waves crashing from the balcony. Amazing ocean views. We will definitely come back and will recommend this Hotel to our friends and family.

Lovely hotel, spotlessly clean with lovely decor and wonderfully friendly staff. Perfectly located opposite the beach where you get complementary sunloungers. Bus ride is 20 mins into town and is very convenient but pls note it is very difficult to get a taxi back later but there are plenty of lovely restaurants within walkinf distance. Highly recommended.

Nice hotel in Poetto Cagliari

We had an amazing stay at Nautilus next to Poetto beach in Cagliari. The hotel is conveniently located away from the noise of the city, but at the same time close to Cagliari if you decide to visit the city. The rooms are very spacious and clean. The staff is extremely helpful and nice. They will go the extra mile to try to accommodate your requests. The breakfast was excellent. We are vegans and found some nice options every day. Free bike rentals and discounts in nearby restaurants are really nice. The only downside is the concrete construction of a beach facility in front of the hotel, which blocks the view to the sea. This is clearly not the fault of the hotel as it looks like a modern and not so-well-planned construction. We were surprised that the authorities allowed to build these kinds of huge and unpleasant buildings right next to such a wonderful beach. The local government should consider demolishing these unaesthetical and unsustainable structures, which are also not good for the environment, especially when the city is working on the reconstruction of dunes. Other than that, we highly recommend Nautilus as one of the best hotels in the area if you are looking to relax.

A Great Choice! Book It.

We loved this place! We stayed for 3 nights and were glad to have stayed at this resort. The reception and staff were very friendly and helpful, both in getting us settled and in recommending places for us to eat. They also arranged for a few taxis for us and made reservations for us for dinner one night. The room was super comfortable--the bed was unique (circular) and we had our own hot tub. The air conditioning worked very well. We spent part of one day and the majority of another at the pool: there were plenty of seats, the pool itself was relaxing and quiet, and the water was perfect. The breakfast was very good--not quite as many options as some other places we stayed in Italy, but certainly enough to give you a good start to your day. The best place we ate (maybe on the whole trip) was right down the block at Antica Cagliari.

Great location and staff were really helpful. would be good if they had some coffee/tea facilities in the rooms. They had a couple of kettles to loan out but not enough for those that wanted them. The bar was stocked with beer and wine. No soft drinks or mixers!! The ground floor rooms with hot tubs were swarming with mosquitoes - book an upstairs room if you intend to use your balcony.

Hotel Nautilus is a fantastic place to stay. It is literally across the road from the beach and is an easy bus ride from the city/station or about 15 minutes by taxi from the airport. Our room was spotlessly clean and airy - and the room is cleaned daily during your stay. The bathroom was great with a lovely large shower. The staff were incredibly knowledgable and helpful and are on hand 24 hours a day. There is a very nice pool, hot tub and sun loungers (some rooms have their own hot tub). There are restaurants and bars nearby, with quite a few on the beach. I highly recommend a stay at Hotel Nautilus.
