Hotel Punta Negra is a really beautiful hotel located in Fertilia, a quiet town about 10 minutes…read moreoutside of Alghero. The hotel has expansive grounds covered in native flora. The common areas are gorgeous including the dining room, the outdoor patio, and the pools. The views from the patio and pools are breathtaking. They have two pools including a saltwater infinity pool. They even have their own small private beach too. The beach isn't as impressive as the local beaches within a short drive but it's a nice option if you don't feel like driving someplace. Each room has a balcony, some of which overlook the ocean. Our room was super clean, included a mini fridge, and the bed was really comfy. Maids came in daily to do morning cleanings as well as turn down service. They have free parking and free breakfast. The breakfast buffet was great with an assortment of delicious pastries and breads plus eggs and cooked prosciutto for us Americans. The bar is open throughout the day and you can order a cocktail to enjoy on the patio where they'll give you some free snacks or you can take it in a plastic cup to enjoy poolside. A couple things I'd change about the hotel: - Provide free water! It'd be so lovely to see water offered for free in the mini fridge in the room, at the bar, or even in a water cooler at the front desk. The staff recommended not drinking from the tap water so it seemed crazy to have to pay for water everyday. I know this is probably customary for Italy but it would've been a really nice touch. - The one time we got dinner at the hotel (because it was downpouring outside) the service was extremely slow and disjointed. The food was mediocre and not worth the wait. - During breakfast, there is one communal coffee machine. It made pretty good coffee including Americanos, cappuccinos, etc. but since there was just one, there was always a line and it sometimes malfunctioned from overuse. - There is no kids area or kids pool so if you're trying to relax by the pool, you may have to deal with screaming children. Overall, I'd probably stay here again because it had great amenities, was clean, and the staff was always really nice. However, I'd love to see some of the minor details improved upon to further elevate the stay.

I have flown in and out of the Alfredo airport several times through Ryan Air. I randomly picked an…read moreairport on Ryan Air's destinations and that is how I originally discovered Sardegna! This airport is very small, but they don't mess around with checking people in and getting bags out. Not to mention Ryan Air is one of the cheapest airlines in Europe. You will also have no issue getting transportation to and from where you are staying. It is only a short ride to the main port town.
