Baia Di Chia Resort Sardinia, Curio Collection By Hilton

Magnifique hôtel, emplacement fabuleux. Beaucoup de très beaux équipements : tennis piscine.... Il faut savoir cependant que les chambres dans les bungalows sont sur la colline. Des navettes électrique sont disponibles à la demande (un chauffeur vient vous chercher) sinon la marche. Elles sont indispensables pour monter les bagages.

Peut être la distribution du café au petit déjeuner !

Interesting setting as a relaxing set of small houses scattered around the hills. Another good thing is that three hotels are connected and one can use facilities such as pool and gym from all of them. I liked our small house with a private garden. The hotel pool is amazing: quiet, very warm water, nice view of the nature and not crowded. Dinners were delicious - probably the best Italian food I’ve tried. There are lovely flamingos living nearby.

First of all: we booked a room with a lagoon view and there wasn’t any lagoon view, just a garden view. This is a biggest disappointment! I told the reception about this and they said the room is qualified as a lagoon view but will let me know if a better room becomes available. They never came back to me. I would say this is almost a scam as lagoon view comes with additional payment. Breakfast food was not bad but is quite basic and could be more varied. It is quite burdensome to move around the hotel and get to the sea as the territory is large and is based on the hills, so the hotel offers transfers by small cars to various areas. It is convenient and not at the same time as you need a lot of time to get where you need. There is no village nearby and the area is quite isolated. The rooms are quite old and although clean, they look worn.

The setting is absolutely stunning. The beach is beautiful, the sea views from our room were exceptional, and the hotel is set in a fantastic location. Our room was bright, spacious and very clean, and despite some maintenance issues, the view alone made it a pleasure to stay in. The staff were consistently friendly, polite and welcoming throughout our stay, and we really appreciated their attitude and willingness to help. The grounds are attractive, the pool is lovely, and the resort has the foundations of a fantastic five-star destination. With its location and natural beauty, it has enormous potential.

While the location is exceptional, the overall experience didn’t consistently feel like a five-star Hilton. There were several maintenance and operational issues that detracted from our stay. On arrival, our room key cards didn’t work, so we were let into the room and then waited around 40 minutes for replacement keys. We also had unnecessary difficulty connecting to the Wi-Fi, requiring multiple calls to reception before we were finally given the correct access code. The room itself was clean and bright but felt tired and in need of refurbishment. During our stay, the shower door came completely off its runners and almost fell on me, the air conditioning was so noisy on the first night that it sounded like a helicopter and required maintenance, and the hairdryer smelt strongly of burning plastic when used on the hot setting, to the point that it felt like a genuine fire hazard. The food was the biggest disappointment. Breakfast was adequate but the restaurant was consistently uncomfortably hot, with very little air circulation, and overlooked an unattractive concrete area rather than making the most of the beautiful surroundings. Dinner was underwhelming, with limited, uninspiring dishes that didn’t reflect a five-star standard. We also ordered room service one evening so we could make the most of the beautiful view from our room instead of eating in the hot restaurant. While the food was acceptable, the portions were surprisingly small. The spaghetti was very average, particularly for Italy, and the club sandwich contained so much mayonnaise that it became unpleasant to eat and actually left me feeling unwell. The beach itself is spectacular, but the service and food offering are a missed opportunity. There was very little available beyond drinks and a small selection of food, and a simple Caesar salad consisted mainly of lettuce with dry chicken.

Staff were friendly and place was quiet and peaceful

It was quite remote with few options for eating unless you had your own transport or paid huge prices for taxi transfers. Rooms were a little worn and dated.
