The resort is an oasis of peace and relaxation nestled in a splendid 25-hectare lush, tropical garden, thanks to the microclimate along this brief tract of coastline. The temperate climate of all Sardinia is extremely mild, but the southern part of the island benefits from a truly extraordinary sub-tropical microclimate. The resort, shaded by tall pines, is protected from the cold winds of the North thanks to a chain of low mountains just up-country. Sardinia is called the pearl of the Mediterranean, but as well as being one of the most beautiful islands in the Mare Nostrum, it is one of the richest in history and tradition, in flavours and aromas. Guests may immerse themselves in the transparent blue of its waters, walk along the unspoilt sandy beaches and discover the traces of ancient civilisations from the Carthaginians to the Romans, or lose themselves in the inexhaustible richness of its cuisine. All this infinite beauty is encapsulated in the resort. The family-friendly complex comprises 7 hotels and 24 suites which take their inspiration from the harmonious colours of the sky and the sea. Guests of the resort may enjoy their breakfast served poolside, in the Oasis, while the Pineta buffet restaurant is reserved for dinner. Furthermore, dining pleasure and refinement, translate into the incredible variety and imagination that typifies the resort's 14 main restaurants and numerous small eateries where guests may discover the best of international cuisine. Further facilities available to guests include air conditioning, a lobby area with a 24-hour reception, a hotel safe and a currency exchange facility. There is also a newspaper stand, a bar, a pub and a disco. Guests may also hire bicycles (charges apply) and there is a playground available for the younger guests.
