Absolutely beautiful hotel and the staff are so friendly and warm. Particular thanks to Alessio who helped us speak to the airport when our bags had been lost and Barbara and Damiano in the restaurant were so lovely and helped us learn some more Italian. The rooms are big, very clean, so cool and comfortable. The staff were fantastic and the food great. Buffet breakfast was fab, as was the buffet dinner. Lunch is a la carte and kind of expensive for lunch but Sardinia is quite expensive, so it’s all relative. There is a path from the hotel to the beach which is beautiful and some sun loungers and parasols reserved for Hotel Marana (you just need tickets from reception) there are some nice beach bars but seem to only open in the day. There is a restaurant open in the evenings, Marinella, which is beautiful but very expensive. We were about to order the lobster tagliatelle which said €35 on the menu, but it was €35 per 100g and weighed 800g so it would have been €280 each for a plate of pasta which is a bit out of budget, ha! The cheapest bottle on the wine list is €70, lovely, but just be aware! The hotel is peaceful and the other guests were all really nice and polite and considerate. Taxis are limited and so expensive. You can walk to Punta Marana to eat but other than that need a taxi or the train from opposite the hotel but they stop at 6.30pm. Visit Porto Rotondo. It’s fabulous.

My husband and I came to Hotel Marana for the last night of our honeymoon as we wanted to be somewhere nice and also close to the Olbia airport. It’s an absolutely gorgeous gated property with a beautiful pool and very big room. We were treated very well by front desk staff and though we were only there for one night, we wished we had had longer. The only small things I’ll mention is for those who like pitch black rooms, there was a green light above the door that was flashing and lighting up the room a bit with that so we had to put masks on. As well, the rain shower head needs to be decalcified as it was spraying everywhere but my husband fixed it. Unfortunately we didn’t have time to stay for the breakfast buffet but I saw it looked very nice and they made us to-go boxes!

Lovely hotel central to the area. Our suite was beautiful and spacious. Great breakfast selection. Our only disappointment was there was no self service ironing facilities - you would need to pay for an ironing service which was not convenient or timely.

Staff amazing. Pool not accessible for disabled people or elders. That is my case and will put me off returning in the future unless is fixed. Also, the water is cold. Only two negatives among plenty of positives. Other than those, amazing place, amazing food, amazing staff. My room 115 was well equipes and with a lovely outdoors space to chillax. Thank you all for a fantastic time.

I wish there was a path from the hotel to the beach walkway instead of walking on the grass. The hotel restaurant mainly served fish, wish there were more options for those who don’t eat fish. Free public restrooms on the beach would make it convenient instead of having to go back to the hotel. Beside these “desired improvements “ the hotel was great, very clean and beautiful, spacious rooms. Staff was amazing!

Excellent value for money

Very comfortable with large, spacious rooms and a nice balcony. Very good value for the price. Staff were very charming and helpful at all times. Close to a private beach. Only downsides were the breakfast was rather limited for choice and the hotel is basically in the middle of no-where. There is nowhere to eat or drink within easy walking distance - we had a car so it wasn't a problem but if you did not have your own transport your options would be very limited.

Wonderful Hotel

The hotel is very updated and clean. The people who work there are very nice as well. It's a bit expensive and a gravel road walk to the beach. If you are alone it's a bit out of the way. Also bring everything you need as there isn't a store to buy suntan lotion or cigarettes if you need them. There is a store to walk and know the taxis during August are quite overpriced and they don't take credit cards.

Very smart,clean and modern

We stayed at the Marana for 6 nights and had a thoroughly enjoyable time. The staff were professional, attentive and above all friendly with nothing being too much trouble. The Hotel seems very new as it was immaculate. I booked a garden suite but I think it was upgraded to a junior with a lovely view of the pool and garden ( I had contacted the hotel direct as it was my girlfriends **th (!) birthday ).The beach ( although not the prettiest in the world is free to Hotel guests whereas some public beaches charge 40 eu pp per day for loungers) is just 5 minutes walk. We did not eat at the restaurant as we had a car (free, underground (cool) parking) and wanted to explore but other guests told us that it was excellent. If I were being tortured to find a negative, it would be that the room did not have a kettle (personal and petty maybe, but nice to have the freedom). The pluses are numerous but it is the little things that count - notwithstanding all of the above - we had a late flight and had to check out at 12 but the hotel have a facility whereby you can store your luggage till needed and made available a room with a shower, etc to change when needed (no charge, just book). All in all I would recommend this hotel very highly and have no hesitation in returning. A fantastic location for exploring (beautiful Porto Rotondo just 5 minutes drive). The local Marina of Marinella is very quiet but has a couple of lovely restaurants.
