The view was stellar. Room nice and clean with a great balcony. Parking was easy, ( for Italy that’s a big deal ). Pools very nice and clean. Staff at the pool bar were great. Negatives, they are expensive for food and drinks. One of the pool people, ( lower pool ), was on a power trip. Breakfast was great except that do they don’t know how to make eggs that are edible. Overal, great. Would return.

It was amazing from start to finish. Friendly staff, food (both snack bar and restaurant) was excellent. Their breakfast has an impressive amount of selection. The pool area, on top of having direct access to a free private beach, meant you could have your beach day at home if you didn't feel like having a crowd around you. It certainly lived up to the hype.

We loved our stay at El Faro! The position beside the sea was fabulous with amazing views of the ocean, perfectly private and peaceful. The option of two pools and ocean swimming was fantastic- the perfect holiday destination.The staff were very accommodating and pleasant too- eager to please their guests! Great location with a car for easy access to Alghero- what a fabulous. old town to wander around, dining and shopping, as well as other locations well worth visiting. Highly recommend this hotel.

This is a spectacular hotel with unbelievable views. A top room with a balcony with sea view is a must. The grounds are beautifully appointed with lounge chairs and easy access to the ocean. The pool is beautiful and the breakfast excellent. There are no restaurants in walking distance but the hotel has an excellent restaurant if you do not want to drive the 15 minutes into Alghero.
